Sarinah

Sarinah Mall is a fantastic destination for those seeking quality Indonesian clothing and branded outfits. The mall offers a diverse selection of fashion that showcases local craftsmanship and style. If you're on the hunt for unique and stylish apparel, this is the place to be! In addition to shopping, Sarinah Mall features a variety of restaurants, making it a perfect spot to relax and enjoy a meal after a day of retail therapy. Currently, they are offering an impressive 70% discount on many items, making it even more enticing. Whether you're a local or a visitor, Sarinah Mall is definitely worth a visit!

Sarinah is always a fun place to visit, especially on Fridays or weekends. There’s live music, plenty of seating, and lots of cool and pretty photo spots. You’ll find beautiful Indonesian textiles and a wide variety of tasty, satisfying local food — from Monsieur Spoon to exciting street snacks at Jajan Nusantara. Toilets are plenty, and the location is super strategic. Parking can be tricky on weekends, though. Prices match the quality, but there are tons of options and discounts too, so you can always find something that fits your budget.

Sarinah Mall, on M.H. Thamrin is Indonesia’s first modern department store and skyscraper. Inaugurated on August 15, 1966, it was a visionary project initiated by President Soekarno to promote domestic products and support the nation’s economic growth. The mall’s name honors Sarinah, Soekarno’s childhood caregiver, reflecting his deep respect for her influence in his life .   Constructed with Japanese war reparation funds, Sarinah introduced Indonesians to modern retail experiences, featuring the country’s first escalators, air-conditioned shopping spaces, and electronic cash registers. Over the decades, Grand Indonesia and the Pakuwon Malls have overtaken Sarinah. However, revitalisation commenced a few years ago to position it as a food & beverage destination.

Sarinah Mall beautifully blends traditional Indonesian charm with a modern atmosphere. I was especially impressed by the supermarket in the basement—it offers a wide variety of Jakarta’s local snacks, instant noodles that are hard to find in Australia, and great gift options like chocolate and Indonesian coffee. The ground floor also has well-curated local crafts and souvenir shops, perfect for travelers. If you're visiting Jakarta, Sarinah is definitely worth a stop!

Sarinah located at Jl.MH Thamrin This shoping mall consider the oldest in Jakarta , now is already renovate wirh modern design.The concept is still same to promote Indonesian culture and heritage , combine with various culinary . Parking will be difficult during week end.

I visited this shopping mall to have a nice snack at Rotio, my local colleagues recommended this store for me. Besides, this mall have many other things to try, and have pizzA hut across the street

There was a mini exhibition about the mall's history - read by Google translate and it was worthwhile - this place is one of the first department stores in Indonesia (promoting local products), with first escalators etc. They still have some artisan fashion and of course, plenty of food options on all floors and a handy supermarket at the basement. Highly recommended if you're a tourist staying nearby :)
