Where to Buy Salt bread in Bali: From Home Bakeries to Popular Cafes

Where to buy salt bread in Bali

We’re not exactly sure when salt bread went from just another bread to the bread everyone suddenly couldn’t stop talking about, but here we are – Bali is officially in its salt bread era, and we totally get it. If you haven’t tried one yet, salt bread – also known as shio pan is basically a soft, fluffy, light bread with a buttery centre, a beautifully crisp outer layer and bottom, and, traditionally, a sprinkle of salt on top. Simple, but we must admid that once you’ve had a really good one, it’s hard to look at regular bread the same way again. Even croissants are starting to feel a little…yesterday (désolé!).

Bali’s bakers have been getting creative with filings like pistachio, ham and cheese, and ube, though the plain one is already so good. Aaand since so many of our friends are on the hunt for their next salty, buttery fix, we’ve rounded up some of the bakeries around Bali serving them – so go forth, eat bread, support these talented bakers, and if you’re here long enough, why not try them all? *wink wink

Rotikoo

This home bakery in Denpasar is making all kinds of delicious salt bread, and you can order online through the link on their Instagram. There’s the OG, cheesy, garlic melt, sausage & cheese duo, egg salad, chicken floss, and “Grandma’s Pocket” that is chicken mince topped with extra mozzarella. And if you’re more into sweet stuff, they’ve also got almond and cream cheese Biscoff – whoah!

Rona Manis

This pretty little cafe has branches in Denpasar and Sanur, and it’s a nice spot to pop by for coffee, daily pastries, and, of course, some salt bread. Their options are pretty simple – the OG, garlic cream cheese, and almond. But sometimes simple is all you need, especially when paired with a good cup of coffee and a slow morning.

Toko Roti Kerabat

“Toko Roti” means bakery, and “Kerabat” means relatives or close friends, which feels pretty fitting for a cosy local bakery like this. They do coffee and a rotating selection of baked goodies, so you better try their coffee salt bread soon, just in case it’s not around for much longer. But don’t forget the classics: OG, garlic cheese, truffle, kimcheese, beef ham & cheese, cheese crumbs, and abon (meat floss) seaweed.

Ara Baked

Another home bakery that takes pre-orders online, and if you’re the adventurous type when it comes to flavours, good news! Ready? Try reading all of these in one breath: plain, blueberry cheese, truffle butter, double choco, milk cream, chicken floss, garlic cheese, salmon mentai, truffle egg mayo, smoked beef cheese, kaya butter, ube lotus kunafa, ube matcha, and ube mochi. I know, hehe. And if you live or happen to be around Canggu on Sunday, you can also find them at La Brisa Market.

Raia

You probably know Raia for their brownies, cookies, and pretty hampers – but did you know they make salt bread too? They’re only available for pre-order every Tuesday and Friday, so set that alarm if you don’t want to miss out on all that buttery goodness. Pick from the original, chocolate, Biscoff, egg mayo, or chicken floss.

Kue by Homie

Homie Buns, the home bakery that makes those cute-shaped buns I often order for friends’ birthdays has a sibling! And now they’re making salt bread too! Available in small batches for same-day pick-up or by pre-order, you can go savoury with the original, garlic cream cheese, chicken floss mayo, or smoked beef and cheese, or switch things up with the sweet ones like coffee butter, milk cream, kaya almond, and Nutella almond. Yum!

Mom’s Bakery

This home bakery in North Denpasar is usually busy making sweet treats like brownies, cookies, and cute hampers for special occasions, but they’ve now added salt bread to the menu too. You’ll find the usual suspects like original, garlic cream cheese, and ham and cheese, alongside some more unexpected fillings and flavours like crab rangoon, cinnamon, and honey butter.

Jr. Bread

Another creative home bakery serving up some fun, out-of-the-box seasonal salt bread. Their flavours change quite often, so it’s best to follow their Instagram to keep up with the latest menu.

Clnt Cakes

Just when you thought Bali couldn’t possibly have any more talented home bakers, there’s another one hiding in West Denpasar – and they even accept bulk orders! All the OG flavours are here, from the classic plain to ham and cheese, chocolate, and chicken floss. But how about banana choco crumble? Yes, please! They also come up with seasonal flavours for special occasions, like nastar (pineapple jam) salt bread for Eid.

Nad’s Crumbs

Based in Legian, these home bakers are usually busy whipping up cookies, hampers, and custom goodies for events and celebrations. But now they’ve joined the salt bread club too. Their lineup includes original, chocolate, garlic cheese, smoked beef and cheese, butterfloss, and…the Dubai pistachio kunafa flavour that has also been so popular lately!

Image credit: Nad’s Crumbs Instagram

Note to self: writing this at night, near bread time, I mean…bed time, is probably not the smartest idea because now I’m sitting here thinking about all these delicious, buttery salt breads and getting reallll hungry, haha! Oh well, the sooner I sleep, the sooner tomorrow comes, and the sooner I can order my way through Bali’s salt bread scene! Hope you find this list useful, and stay tuned for more because the Kata Bella team is still searching for even more salt bread spots around the island. Happy bread shopping!

Sazón Bali : Spanish flavours in Canggu

Spanish Restaurant in Canggu Bali is such a melting pot of cultures, and as a food lover, I feel like the dining options here are endless. I love Indonesian and Balinese food, of course - but I also enjoy trying dishes from other countries. One of the things I really appreciate about living in Bali is that I can explore so many different cuisines without having to travel far. Not long ago, a friend of mine from Regent Bali Canggu invited me to the grand opening of one of their new restaurants, Sazón. They gave us a little sneak peek of what’s on the menu during the party, and it made me want to come back for more. And I did! I went back to Sazon, and here’s a little story about my evening filled with delicious Spanish food and good company. I rarely eat Spanish food and, I gotta be honest, I didn’t know much beyond the famous paella. But Chef Javier passionately walked us through each dish as he served our dinner, from starters to dessert - and I soaked it all up like story time on a plate. I enjoyed every bite. Here’s what we had. You may also like this article: What it's like to live in Bali - Cost, Culture, and Everyday Life Gilda “Look it up on Google,” Chef Javier said. Turns out Gilda is a 1946 black-and-white romance film starring Rita Hayworth. So, why was the Gilda on my plate marinated tuna with olives and peppers? hehe. Well, Gilda is a classic Spanish tapa named after the film because, just like the movie, it’s bold, salty, and full of spicy flavour. It was a lovely intro to the courses that followed. Pa Amb Tomàquet As simple as it looks, and as basic as it sounds on the menu; bread, tomato, ham - this dish tasted like so much more than just those three elements. I’m not exactly sure where all the flavour came from, but wow, my taste buds and tummy did a little happy dance. The ham isn’t your average ham, it’s Jamón Ibérico, a premium cured pork from Spain. I could’ve easily eaten a whole plate of it, but there was more food on the way, and I had to save some room in my tiny stomach. Croquetas The name pretty much says it all. We have an Indonesian version called kroket - pronounced the same. We tried the one filled with mushrooms, and it was deliciosa! You may like this article: Bali-based Home Bakeries to Sweeten Your Celebrations Japanese Scallop, Ajoblanco Just when I thought it was time for the main course, another round of sharing bites arrived. At this point, I started to regret my fitted outfit choice! Haha, I probably left Sazón looking three months pregnant (with food baby, of course). Okay, back to the dish - I’m a big seafood fan, especially scallops, and everything in this one worked perfectly together: dill, cucumber, almonds. Patatas Bravas Potatoes - but make it fancy, with aioli and spicy tomato. I’ve always loved potatoes in any form, but I didn’t know there was another kind to love… until this. Ibérico Grilled Pork & Mushroom Paella And here it is - the main event and the highlight of my evening: the paella. Rich, comforting, and full of flavour, this dish perfectly combines tender Ibérico grilled pork with earthy mushrooms. Even though it’s not something I eat often, it tasted very comforting and somehow familiar. Santiago Cake, Orange Curd & Toasted Meringue I’m a dessert person, and I believe there’s always room for dessert—but we were heading into a serious food coma, so we decided to share the Santiago cake, a Spanish almond cake. It’s flourless and moist with a sponge-like texture—not too sweet, with a lovely hint of citrus from the orange curd. All in all, Sazón is a great addition to Canggu’s buzzing dining scene. Whether you’re into Spanish food or just here for a tasty night out like me, they serve up good vibes and even better dishes. Their tagline, “más amor, por favor” (more love, please), totally fits - you can tell everything’s made with a lot of love. Can’t wait to go back and try even more from the menu. Gracias, Sazón! 📍 Jl. Pantai Batu Bolong No. 93 xx, Canggu, Kuta Utara, Bali 80361, 🕒 Open daily, 6pm till late 🪑 Indoor & outdoor seating 💰 Price range: 250K-500K 📞 Reservation WA: +62 811-3831-6575

And now back to my meat-eating era, I’ve pretty much worked my way through their entire burger menu - except the lamb and the beef brisket, simply because I’m not a lamb person and I haven't had the chance to try the brisket burger - but I'm sure they're good. Ps. they're open 24 hours! 📍Google Map: Pit Stop Burger Seminyak Image credit: Pit Stop Burger Instagram Five Monkeys I used to go to Five Monkeys a lot when I worked in Legian - but I always went for their chilli cheese fries, not the burgers. That was until one day I had lunch there with a friend and decided to give their burger a try, and it was actually really good! I later found out that they have branches in other major cities in Indonesia. The one in Legian has now moved to Kuta, and there's another outlet in Bali's biggest shopping centre, Living World. 📍Google Map: Living World Bali Image credit: Five Monkeys Instagram You may also like this article: Restaurants in Legian and Seminyak - Kata Bella's Picks 2026 Grill'd This Australian burger chain keeps things light without compromising on flavour.

Bali on a Budget: Cheap Eats in Canggu for Under 100K

Cheap Eats in Canggu When friends ask me, “Is Bali expensive?”, it’s not really a yes or no answer - it really depends on your lifestyle, what you like, what you need, what you’re used to...and what you eat. I’m a local, so my diet is pretty simple: chicken and rice is already more than enough. I’m also always happy with tempe, stir-fried veggies, and rice for just around 20K a plate. But if you’re here on holiday, you might want to treat yourself - and it’s very easy to spend 500K or even 1 million per person on a nice steak or a proper indulgent dining experience. And if you’re travelling Bali on a budget, warung (a small local eatery serving pre-cooked, homemade Indonesian dishes) is your best friend, along with these spots around Canggu I’ve carefully curated that are affordable, clean, and less likely to give you Bali belly. Cheap Eats in Canggu You may also like this article: 5 Must-Visit Coffee Shops in Canggu, Umalas, and Nearby Areas THE GOOD OLD WARUNGS Warung Sika This is probably my most-visited warung in Canggu. I love it because they have such an extensive menu - some dishes rotate, but many are available every day. Try the tempe orek (stir-fried tempe), chicken rendang, bakwan jagung (corn fritters), and pretty much any of the veggie dishes - they’re all good. Just a heads-up: it can get super busy around lunchtime, so be prepared to queue, or try coming before or after 12. 💰 Price range: IDR 25K-75K/ meal ⏰ Opening hours: Monday to Sunday, 9am-9pm 📍 Address: Jl. Tanah Barak No.45, Canggu, Kec. Kuta Utara, Badung, Bali Image credit: Warung Sika Instagram Warung Jawa Bu Sri I think this warung is underrated. But if you want true Indo flavours, the kind we actually eat every day (not the adjusted versions for tourists), this is where you should go. You’ll find proper local dishes like pecel (steamed veggies with peanut sauce), ayam suwir balado (shredded chilli chicken), and Javanese-style rendang. Sri is the name of the super lovely lady who owns and runs the warung. 💰 Price range: IDR 15K-30K/ meal ⏰ Opening hours: 📍 Address: Jl. Pantai Batu Bolong Br No.19, Canggu, Kec. Kuta Utara, Badung, Bali Image credit: Warung Jawa Bu Sri Instagram Warung Makan Siang This is the kind of warung that makes you feel like you’ve just dropped by a friend’s place and she’s cooked for you, hehe. The space is small, but just right. They’ve got all the usual Indonesian favourites on rotation, and every now and then there are special dishes like rawon (black beef soup) or sayur lodeh (vegetable soup with coconut milk). They also often stock desserts and iced coffee from local home businesses, which makes it feel even more homely. 💰 Price range: IDR 25K-50K ⏰ Opening hours: Monday to Friday, 11.30am-4pm 📍 Address: Jl. Beringin, Dalung, Kec. Kuta Utara, Badung, Bali Image credit: Warung Makan Siang Instagram Warung Local I’ve been a customer since they first opened and I once sold my homemade cookies there, hehe. It’s great to see them growing bigger now (literally, space-wise). If you’re new to warung food, Warung Local is a good place to start. The flavours are “Indonesian enough” for us locals, but not too heavy on the seasoning, if you know what I mean. It’s also on the main Batu Bolong street, so it’s really easy to spot. 💰 Price range: IDR 50K-90K ⏰ Opening hours: Monday to Sunday 10am-10pm 📍 Address: Jl. Pantai Batu Bolong No.10, Canggu, Badung, Bali Image credit: Warung Local Instagram Warung Tiga Tiga means three, and yes - it’s the same as Warung Dua (two) in Umalas. I’d call this an elevated version of an Indo warung, because aside from the Indonesian menu, they also have Western favourites like lasagna and quiches, plus some healthier options - quite a few salad choices too. Price-wise, it’s adjusted to what they offer, so it’s more expensive than a regular warung, but still affordable. 💰 Price range: IDR 50K-90K ⏰ Opening hours: Monday to Sunday, 7am-11pm 📍 Address: Jl. Nelayan No.27, Canggu, Kec. Kuta Utara, Badung, Bali Image credit: Warung Tiga Instagram You may also like this article: Bali Home Bakeries to Sweeten Your Celebrations RICE BOWL, NOODLES, AND EVERYTHING ELSE Nasigo Rice bowls are probably the best fix when you’re busy and starving. Rice and protein in one container - whoever came up with that, thank you! Nasigo has a solid range of chicken options, from teriyaki to green chilli, starting from just 35K. If you’re more into beef, they’ve got ground beef with basil and a beef patty from 45K. Portions are generous too. And if you’re in the mood for something sweet, their iced matcha latte is a nice pick from just 35K. Get both a rice bowl and a matcha, and you’re still spending under 100K - not bad at all. 💰 Price range: From IDR 35K-45K ⏰ Opening hours: Monday to Saturday, 11am - 8pm 📍 Address: Jl. Raya Babakan Canggu No.91, Kec. Kuta Utara, Badung, Bali Image credit: Nasigo Instagram Daeng Burger Not all burgers in Canggu are pricey - some are still super affordable (but also decent), like Daeng Burger. They’ve got a wide range from classic beef burgers to chicken and vegetarian options, but my personal favourite is their Morrokowich panini. It’s got grilled harissa chicken, cheddar cheese, pico de gallo, rocket, and tzatziki sauce, and very delicious for just….drumroll please…59K! Woot woot! 💰 Price range: 59K-90K ⏰ Opening hours: Monday to Sunday, 11am - 1am 📍 Address: Jl. Raya Babakan Canggu No.33A, Kec. Kuta Utara, Badung, Bali Image credit: Daeng Burger Instagram Warung Ayu Ayam Bakar Ala Jimbaran This is a proper local Indo grilled chicken and seafood spot, but I’ve taken so many of my foreign friends here and they’ve all loved it so far. It’s done in that Jimbaran-style grilling; smoky, slightly sweet, nicely charred, and super flavourful, without having to drive all the way to Jimbaran. You can get a simple plate of rice and grilled chicken from just 45K, or go for a sharing platter that works for 2 up to 10 people if you’re coming with a group. You can also order your favourite seafood individually, from grilled fish to prawns, and more, and build your own feast. Super flexible, super satisfying, and great value for money. 💰 Price range: 45K-90K ⏰ Opening hours: Monday to Sunday, 11am - 10pm 📍 Address: Jl. Pererenan, Kec. Mengwi, Kabupaten Badung, Bali Image credit: Warung Ayu Google page You may also like this article: Brunch in Bali - Rediscovering Legian through Farmer’s Daughter Amy Wong Sometimes I’m in the mood for some Chinese-Indo comfort food, and when that craving hits, I always order from Amy Wong. They’ve got a cute little space, but somehow I always order online and I pretty much stick to the same thing every time: kwetiau goreng spesial (stir-fried rice noodles). Fun fact: when Indos put “spesial” on the menu, it usually means you’re getting the full upgrade; either a fried egg on top and/or all the extra topping, hehe. And also, don’t skip their fried bakso (Indo-style meatballs) for a snack! 💰 Price range: 25K-60K ⏰ Opening hours: Monday to Sunday, 11am - 9pm 📍 Address: Jl. Pantai Berawa, Tibubeneng, Kec. Kuta Utara, Badung, Bali Image credit: Amy Wong Instagram Mie and More This little noodle shack makes one of the best Sichuan noodles I’ve had. Also, they added chicken and beef curry noodles to the menu, which is very dangerous (for my self-control). Be careful with their chilli oil - it’s so good you’ll want to pour a lot, but it packs a punch. And complete your noodles with a side of dumplings. They’ve got options from chicken, beef, pork, to mushroom. 💰 Price range: From IDR 50K ⏰ Opening hours: Mon, Wed-Sat, 1pm-12am, Tue 4pm-12am, Sun 7pm-12am 📍 Address: Jl. Pantai Batu Bolong No.26, Kec. Kuta Utara, Badung, Bali Image credit: Mie and More Instagram Happy Pork Rendang Rendang, but make it pork. It might be controversial in some parts of Indonesia, but clearly not in Bali, especially when it’s this good. True to the name, they specialise in pork rendang (that rich, slow-cooked Indonesian dry curry we all love). You can have it the classic way with rice, or switch things up with rendang nasi goreng, a rendang rice burger, or even a burrito. I’ve only tried it the traditional way so far, but I’m sure the rest of the menu is just as good. 💰 Price range: From IDR 25K ⏰ Opening hours: Mon-Sun, 8am-10pm 📍 Address: Jl. Raya Babakan Canggu No.27, Kec. Kuta Utara, Badung, Bali Image credit: Happy Pork Rendang Instagram So, what do you think? Is Bali expensive? It really depends on how you choose to experience it. Here are just a few of my regular places around Canggu - and of course, the list will continue. What I like about living in Bali (or in Indonesia in general) is that it doesn’t force you into one way of living. You can keep it ultra-local with a 20K plate of rice from a humble warung, or go for the fancy options - both are valid ways to enjoy the island. Thank you for reading!
