Rina's Cafe

Waterhouse Business Centre · Chelmsford

A proper caff, with a taste of Indonesia.

One counter, two kitchens. Cooked breakfasts and hot rolls done the way you want them, and slow-cooked Indonesian home cooking you won't find in your average Chelmsford caff.

Breakfast & hot rolls

The full works, and a good cup of tea

The bread-and-butter of any decent caff. Cooked to order, no fuss, just a proper start to the day whether you're on site at Waterhouse or passing through.

A taste of the menu. Ask at the counter for the full list of the day.

The Indonesian twist

Home cooking that gives us our name

This is the bit that makes Rina's different. Real Indonesian home cooking, made from scratch — the sort of slow, spiced food you'd be served round the family table, brought to a Chelmsford café counter.

Fancy something from this side? It's always best to ask or check Instagram for the day's specials.

Sit in, or grab it and go

A friendly, unfussy spot tucked inside Waterhouse Business Centre — handy for a working breakfast, a proper lunch, or a takeaway when you're short on time. On Just Eat too, if the desk won't let you leave.
