Things to do in East Timor
10. City Cafe
Reviewed By mrdom
The price is up to about $7.50 now but it's still worth it for a good Portuguese/Asian selection including salads, stews and great fried fish (tip: the lasagna is NEVER good). I also go there for breakfast (which stupidly finishes at 10am) as I like the omelettes but, strangely, the coffee is very mediocre.
9. Dilicious Timor
Reviewed By Turista_academia
This resto gets straight to the point... no frills and unpretentious... but it is really good! Dishes are moderately priced including their specials. A must try in Dili!
8. Maubara Fort
Reviewed By Saley69
In the past the dutch and Portuguese competed for interest in this area. The Dutch built this basic small fort. In a momentary lapse of reason the Portuguese agreed to trade the fort for the island of Flores. There is a small village and market near the fort, and a shingle beach with intensely clear water. An old church nearby completes the scene in this sleepy stop-off
7. Kafe BCB

I came across Kafè BCB while walking down to visit the Resistance Museum in Dili.What drew my attention to the place was an amazing aroma of coffee being grounded.I ordered an espresso and enjoyed sip by sip what has to be the best tasting coffee I have tried anywhere in my travels through Asia.And I paid only a dollar a cup!Their food menu was also a very pleasant surprise.Everything from Pizza, Jumbo hot dogs, Malaysian chicken curry, schnitzel, big breakfast- listed as the "hangover special" and many other interesting and different foods to choosed from....all priced at $5 and under.Suited my budget.The lady making the coffee was friendly as was Robert, the retired Ozzie, who explained he set up the cafe to help with his daughter's education and help the coffee lady improve her and her family's life.I sat under a big mango tree and listen to some great Brazilian music coming from the Zeitu Burger bar opposite the cafe.I also met some Peace Corps volunteers who have an office across the road and got some good information from them about travelling to the districts.I drank and ate there for three days in a row and next time I am back in Dili it's going to be my regular place to visit.
6. Gloria Jeanâs Coffee

Great coffee was enjoyed as well as a couple of cakes for morning tea, mostly outdoor covered seating at the Timor Plaza outlet, free Wi-Fi and ceiling fans as well
5. Katua's Hotel
Reviewed By SteveCairns
Ok, I have to admit that I liked this place so much I went here every day for lunch! But it looks like many expat business people did also as by 1pm it was pretty crowded. The food, coffee, service, decor were all very Western, prices pretty low and the menu of the day food almost local price.But the internet was amazingly fast when compared to what is usually on offer in Dili.

Reviewed By Russell N
Had two meals here and a few coffees. It was close by the hotel, so convenience was a main factor. The meals were reasonably good, coffee western style. Desserts were nice.I really liked the banana-coffee smoothies/milkshakes. They were great.The building itself is nice, and it was pleasant to sit out on the patio. Only downside was the smokers.

3. Cafe Wesa'e

Healthy, delicious, sustainable lifestyle food.
Reviewed By GOCFE
This is a breakfast/lunch venue only. The Aussie owners are really investing in the local community by training staff and developing a vegetarian option in Dili. The food is tasty and with a daily changing special ($9) there is always something new to try. Whilst not a full time vegetarian it is a nice change to come to Wesa'e and try their offerings. It is not a big venue and at lunch is very popular, so if wanting to eat-in you may be disappointed when all the tables are taken. Absolutely worth a visit and prices are reasonable.Thank you so much for your review GOCFE! :)

Itâs hard to be vegetarian or vegan when youâre travelling sometimes. A friend put me onto this place the last time I was in Dilii and we tried the tofu banh mi, and fresh and deep friend veggie spring rolls. All totally scrumptious!
