To bros who PM-ed me in regards to which joint is open and which isn't during Ramadan period,i have consolidated all my name cards of joints i have visited over my last 6 trips to Batam and put them into one single photo (becos each post only can have max 4 photos) for your reference.
With my limited knowledge,my advise is during Ramadan,avoid the 1st 3 days of Ramadan,the mid 3 days and ending 3 days,and the beginning of the end 3 days too.(as advised by senior bros here) Give this joints a courtesy call after 5.30pm indo time to see if they are open as their numbers has been stated on the below pic and if no one answering,means closed. If got people answer and tell you close,then i THINK it's open but you need to go by the joint's back door. (some girls tell me they are playing poker card to kill time while waiting for customers from their back door tho)
Plz note i also newbie to Batam and also 1st time in Batam during Ramadan and i cannot guarantee information i shared here is 100% correct,but it is as much as i know and understand base my reading of this thread & a recent visit last week.
Below the photo of joint's namecards (Memories name card added) :
Below is a map you guys might will find useful to locate those joints created by bro qwerty :

Sorry that i have to answer some PMs thru posting here,cos quite a handful of you asked me the same question and i will have to repeat same answer. Now i only need to answer one time on this thread. Hoping for your understanding here and hope you all have a good time in Batam.
