Must Visit Best Coffee Shops in Canggu and Nearby by Kata Bella

Best Coffee Shops in Canggu, Umalas, and Nearby Areas

I’m not a coffee connoisseur, just a regular girl who needs her daily caffeine fix to survive the chaos of life. So don’t expect a deep dive into brewing methods, tasting notes, or where the beans are grown here. Instead, I’m simply sharing my go-to coffee spots near where I live in Bali, mostly Canggu, Umalas and the surrounding areas. This is also not a list of “The Most Instagrammable cafes” (though they are pretty cute); some are small, humble, and just….nice. So, if you’re looking for great coffee without the fluff – let’s get into it.

CANGGU: Berawa, Batu Bolong, Babakan

Satu Satu Coffee

Here’s one of the reasons why I keep coming back to Satu Satu: I drink Piccolo but I also live in Bali, right. So baristas, if you’re reading this, please don’t hate me, but I like my Piccolo ice cold. And Satu Satu is one of the few places that gets the balance of coffee, milk, and ice just right. It’s never watered down, but also not too intense. I often buy their ground coffee as presents for friends and family. The staff will ask how you brew at home so they can grind them to the right size – super helpful!

📍 Jl. Pantai Berawa No. 36, Tibubeneng, Kec. Kuta Utara

🕒 Open daily, 7.30am – 4pm

Fine by Satu Satu

If you like the coffee at Satu Satu but fancy a change of scenery, try Fine by Satu Satu. I usually stop by for a quick piccolo and a takeaway croissant, but I’ve noticed plenty of people working from there too. It’s a bright, spacious spot that looks comfortable enough to settle into for a few hours of work.

📍 Jl. Raya Babakan Canggu No. 51, Canggu, Kec. Kuta Utara

🕒 Open daily, 8am – 4.30pm

Two Face

It’s one of the “By Suka” cafes, and I’ve always enjoyed their other outlets too. This one is connected to Muda/ By Suka. I like to sit upstairs – nice, airy, and perfect for a slow coffee catch-up with a friend. They also have a solid brunch menu if you’re feeling a bit hungrier than just coffee. You can also order from Muda/ By Suka and eat here.

📍 Jl. Munduk Catu No. 9, Canggu, Kec. Kuta Utara

🕒 Open daily, 7.30am – 3.30pm

Samm’s Farm

Coffee in a cool, outdoorsy space? Yes, please. Samm’s Farm is a lovely spot if you’re looking for somewhere to enjoy your own company for a few hours with a coffee and a bite to eat. It’s also great for a quick workday, and it’s pet-friendly too.

📍 Jl. Canggu Padang Linjong No. 58, Canggu, Kec. Kuta Utara

🕒 Open daily, 8.30am – 10pm

Stray Dog

It’s one of those coffee shops that doesn’t overdo anything. Simple, unpretentious, and focused on their coffee – they serve proper artisan coffee with a nice selection to choose from. Beyond coffee, they also have pastries and a few main course options on the menu. The space is nice and humble, with a vinyl collection that makes it feel even more homey and comfy to hang out in.

📍 Jl. Pemelisan Agung Gg. Anggrek V No.7, Tibubeneng, Kec. Kuta Utara

🕒 Mon-Fri 7am-5pm, Sat-Sun 7am-10pm

Hungry Bird

It’s not the newest viral coffee shop, but we’re here for the coffee, right? They’ve recently renovated the space, and it now feels modern while still being warm and inviting. Their coffee menu is worth exploring too, from fruity to chocolatey notes. And if you end up loving your cup, you can grab a bag of beans to take home – they make a great Bali souvenir for family, friends, or yourself.

📍 Jl. Raya Semat No. 86, Tibubeneng, Kec. Kuta Utara

🕒 Open daily, 7am – 5pm

UMALAS AND KEROBOKAN

7AM Bakers

I like going to the one in Bumbak, but they now have a spot in Pererenan too. It’s roughly the same distance from where I live to either one. The space is nice for a quiet hangout with friends or a quick work-from-cafe session. If you get hungry in the middle of replying emails, they’ve got a tempting selection of pastries for cakes, plus a main menu if you’re ready for something more filling.

Ps. The one in Pererenen has longer opening hours (7am – 10pm)

📍Jl. Bumbak Dauh No.88, Kerobokan, Kec. Kuta Utara

🕒 Open daily, 7am – 7pm

Revolver HQ

The famous Revolver, which started as a tiny cafe in Seminyak, has now opened its HQ in Umalas. And unlike the old days, parking is no longer a challenge – there’s a whole basement parking area for both scooters and cars. You really can’t skip this one when you’re in Bali. The space is big, stylish, and easy to spend a few hours in. And after all these years, Revolver is still one of my favourite places to go for a good coffee fix.

📍Jl. Bumbak Dauh No. 1, Umalas

🕒 Open daily, 7am – 10pm

Eko Cafe

This cafe is located in a laid-back area with a “settle down” vibe – you’ll often spot families with kids and dogs enjoying a relaxed breakfast, far from the busy surfer crowds or rushed office mornings. That’s exactly why I like it; I’m not a fan of crowded cafes, especially when you have to wait in line. The coffee here is nice, and they’re known for their healthy menu (but not too hardcore healthy, if you know what I mean).

📍 Jl. Bumbak Dauh No.89x, Kerobokan, Kec. Kuta Utara

🕒 Open daily, 7am – 3pm

Arnold’s Coffee

If you keep heading from Eko Cafe towards Jalan Raya Semer, you’ll spot a bright yellow coffee shop that’s hard to miss. Arnold’s Coffee may be small, but it’s full of charm, and it has everything you need to start your morning right. My family loves this place; we often end up staying a while, especially with the board games they have available. The coffee is nice, and you should definitely try the waffles. Best of all, the prices are affordable (I mean, things are generally cheaper once you’re outside central Canggu).

📍 Jl. Raya Semer no. 34, Kerobokan, Kec. Kuta Utara

🕒 Monday – Saturday, 7.30am – 5.30pm

TGC Coffee

Good coffee, a nice space, and fair prices – that’s exactly why this place deserves a spotlight. Not far from 7AM Bakers in Bumbak, you’ll find a small entrance tucked away on the corner that leads to TGC. It’s easy to miss, but definitely worth seeking out. I like sitting outside, but the upstairs space looks like it’d be perfect for a work-from-cafe day.

📍 Jl. Bumbak Dauh, Kerobokan, Kec. Kuta Utara

🕒 Monday – Saturday, 7am – 8pm

So there you have it, a few of my favourite coffee spots around where I live. Whether you’re after a perfectly balanced Piccolo, a quiet place to work, or a cosy cafe with healthy bites, these spots are worth checking out. If you know of any other nice coffee shops in the area, drop me a message! I’m always on the lookout for new favourites 🙂

Balinese Food Guide: From Suckling Pig to Local Favourites

Balinese Food Guide: From Suckling Pig to Local Favourites Some come to Bali for the beaches, some for the wellness lifestyle, and others come with one mission: eat their way around the island! Bali is famous for babi guling, or Balinese suckling pig, a whole pig traditionally stuffed with a rich blend of spices, then slowly roasted until the skin turns beautifully crrrissspyy! It's also a dish often associated with Balinese ceremonies and special occasions, though you can find it at local warungs and eateries, too. Babi guling might steal the spotlight, but there are also other tasty Balinese dishes to explore. So, if your belly is ready for a little adventure, here's where our Balinese friends think you should eat. You may also like this article: Where to Eat Indonesian Food in Bali Balinese Food Guide: From Suckling Pig to Local FavouritesBabi Guling Bu Desak Sapat - GianyarBabi Guling Jero Kawan - MungguBabi Guling Men Lari - CangguPaon Dwaji - DenpasarNasi Ayam Kedewatan Ibu Mangku - UbudWarung Mek Juwel - UbudWarkop Mang Siko - TabananBabi Guling Men Wenci - SangehSate Babi Bledor - SangehGuling Samsam Merekak - Mengwi Babi Guling Bu Desak Sapat - Gianyar Forget beauty sleep. There's babi guling to eat. This long-standing spot in Tegallalang, Gianyar, has been serving Balinese suckling pig since the 1990s. They open at 5am - yes, 5am! And they sell out pretty quickly, so a super early visit is your best bet, because once the pork is gone, it's gawnn! 📍Google Map: Babi Guling Bu Desak Sapat Image credit: Babi Guling Bu Desak Sapat Instagram Babi Guling Jero Kawan - Munggu The crispy skin is a must-try, and it's full of flavour! The portions are generous, there's a good mix of side dishes, and you can ask for non-spicy if you're not brave enough, hehe. It's also not too far from Canggu, so if you're getting a little tired of Instagram-famous coffee shops, here's your excuse to get out and explore some proper local flavours. Your taste buds will thank you. 📍Google Map: Babi Guling Jero Kawan Image credit: Babi Guling Jero Kawan Instagram Babi Guling Men Lari - Canggu In the middle of Canggu’s cafes, gyms and protein smoothies, you’ll find a traditional-looking restaurant tucked in the corner, serving none other than babi guling. Pretty sure you’ve spotted it from the main road on your way to padel or pilates, lol. They serve babi guling the classic way in a plate of nasi campur with aaaaall the good stuff. 📍Google Map: Babi Guling Men Lari Image credit: Babi Guling Men Lari Google page Paon Dwaji - Denpasar Here, you can get your chicken or duck grilled, smoked, or cooked Betutu-style (seasoned with Balinese mix of spices, usually wrapped and slow-cooked until tender). The meat is juicy and flavourful, and if you can handle a bit of heat, have it with sambal matah, Bali's fresh raw chilli condiment made with chopped shallots, lemongrass, chillies and a squeeze of lime. It's fragrant, spicy and adds a lovely kick to every bite. 📍Google Map: Paon Dwaji Image credit: Paon Dwaji Google page You may also like this article: Oleh-Oleh Bali to Bring Home Other than Pie Susu Nasi Ayam Kedewatan Ibu Mangku - Ubud They have five branches now, but our favourite is still the OG in Kedewatan, Ubud. Here, you get to dine in a bale (Balinese pavilion) surrounded by garden views. It's giving that old-school Bali holiday feeling, before beach clubs took over the island, lol. The menu is pretty simple; rice and chicken - that's tasty as fudge! Don't forget to try their sate lilit - it's a Balinese minced meat mixed with spices and grated coconut, wrapped around a lemongrass stalk or skewer. 📍Google Map: Nasi Ayam Kedewatan Ibu Mangku Image credit: Nasi Ayam Kedewatan Instagram Warung Mek Juwel - Ubud Another Ubud legend, this spot has been serving up local goodness since the 80s. Like most nasi campur (mixed rice), expect a plate of rice with a little bit of everything: chicken, sate lilit, egg, urap (a Balinese salad of boiled vegetables tossed with grated coconut) and, of course, sambal. It's a simple, satisfying plate that brings together all those lovely Balinese flavours in one go. 📍Google Map: Warung Mek Juwel Nasi Campur Ayam Image credit: Warung Mek Juwel Google page Warkop Mang Siko - Tabanan Warkop, short for warung kopi, basically means coffee shop. And yes, they do serve coffee, but you wouldn't drive all the way to Tabanan just for a cup. The real reason to make the trip is their brisket and smoked chicken, served Bali-style with rice and all the usual sambal goodness. It's also a nice spot to take a little break from Bali's touristy hotspots and enjoy a more laid-back side of the island. 📍Google Map: Warkop Mang Siko Image credit: Warkop Mang Siko Google Page You may also like this article: Kids Friendly Restaurants in Bali with Playgrounds Babi Guling Men Wenci - Sangeh When was the last time you visited Bali and went to Sangeh? Not that you need an excuse to venture outside of the usual Bali's popular neighbourhoods, but if you're looking for one, how about a plate of delicious babi guling at Men Wenci? Hehe. Maybe this local food gem is just the motivation you need to explore another side of Bali that's full of local charm. 📍Google Map: Babi Guling Men Wenci Sangeh Image credit: Babi Guling Men Wenci Google page Sate Babi Bledor - Sangeh And while in Sangeh, make another stop at Sate Babi Bledor. It’s the Indonesian-style satay with that good ol’ peanut sauce we all know and love, but make it pork. The pork skewers are traditionally grilled over charcoal, giving them that lovely smoky aroma and slightly charred edges, hmmmm. There are two locations in the area, but both are run by the same owner. 📍Google Map: Sate Babi Bledor I, Sate Babi Bledor II Image credit: Sate Babi Bledor Google page Guling Samsam Merekak - Mengwi They have four locations, but the one closest to us is in Mengwi. Their signature dish is guling samsam, which is a rolled pork belly packed with Balinese spices and cooked until crispy. You can order it as a sharing portion if you're coming with friends, or have it as part of a nasi campur if you want to try a bit of everything on one plate. It's definitely one for the pork lovers! 📍Google Map: Guling Samsam Merekak Image credit: Guling Samsam Merekak Google page Bali's food scene goes waayyy beyond avo on toast, smoothie bowls and pretty brunch spots. Not that we don't love those too! But sometimes, the best way to get to know the island is through its local food, little warungs and places you might not find on your usual Bali itinerary. So save this guide for next time you're wondering where to eat. Your next favourite meal might be waiting somewhere unexpected. Thank you for reading and hope you enjoy this listicle!

10 Aesthetic Canggu Cafes and Restaurants

Aesthetic Canggu Cafes and Restaurants I don’t pick a cafe or restaurant just because it’s cute - but I’ll admit, when a place has a nice interior and a comfortable space, I’m way more tempted to check it out. People these days call it “Instagrammable” (not really a word I love using), but for me it’s less about the photos and more about how genuinely happy I feel sitting in a space that looks and feels good. Canggu definitely has plenty of that aesthetic energy, but I’ve also made sure to pick spots that I actually enjoyed eating at - not just looking at. Anyway, if hunting down aesthetic Canggu cafes and restaurants is on your Bali itinerary, I hope this little list leads you to a few places you’ll like as much as I did. You may also like this article: My Little Canggu Restaurant List - Part 1 Aesthetic Canggu Cafes and RestaurantsTHE WARM NATURAL VIBESBokashiArti Salad BarBread BasketWoods PererenanPenny LaneTHE COLOURFUL ONESStudio PepeMonsieur Spoon The LucMaraMataBrother Goose THE WARM NATURAL VIBES Bokashi Translates to “fermented organic matter” in Japanese, Bokashi started as a sustainable grocery store before expanding into a cafe and tea house. The whole place has this rustic, earthy vibe with natural materials and a cosy feel. The menu follows the same mindful approach, with Japanese-inspired dishes, healthy salads, as well as other comfort meals like cheeseburger and the classic eggs Benedict for breakfast. ⏰ Opening hours: Mon-Sun, 9am-8pm 📍 Google Map: Bokashi Berawa Image credit: Bokashi Instagram Arti Salad Bar With its unique cave-inspired design and a touch of greenery, this cafe feels like a hidden garden escape right on the main road. The space is beautifully designed while still being practical for those looking to work. The winning point is that there are plenty of power outlets at almost every table. Beyond the aesthetics, they also serve great coffee alongside fresh and nutritious meals from breakfast to dinner. ⏰ Opening hours: Mon-Sun, 7am-8pm 📍 Google Map: Arti Salad Bar Bread Basket The name pretty much gives it away - Bread Basket is where you go for freshly baked bread, sourdough, bagels, and coffee. But their breakfast menu is also worth checking out. Add in the warm interiors and cosy corners, and you have the perfect excuse to slow down and stay awhile. They also have branches in Sanur and Kerobokan. ⏰ Opening hours: Mon-Sun, 7am-5pm 📍 Google Map: Bread Basket Canggu Image credit: Bread Basket Canggu Google Page You may also like this article: My Little Canggu Restaurant List - Part 2 Woods Pererenan Walking into Woods Pererenan feels a little like a treehouse. The restaurant was designed around the existing trees, so you’ll see actual trees as part of the space. The highlight for me is their Sunday Roast, a weekly treat that invites you to spend your Sunday the way it should be: slow, unhurried, and with good food. ⏰ Opening hours: Mon-Sun, 8am-11pm 📍 Google Map: Woods Pererenan Image credit: Woods Pererenan Instagram Penny Lane This place is popular for a reason- giant archways, textured walls, vintage-inspired furniture, earthy tones, and sunlight hitting every corner perfectly during golden hour. It feels like a botanical wonderland - a place for gathering or special occasions. They also have quite an extensive menu, from classic breakfast dishes and burgers to steak and Indonesian favourites. ⏰ Opening hours: Mon-Sun, 8am-12am 📍 Google Map: Penny Lane Image credit: Penny Lane Instagram THE COLOURFUL ONES Studio Pepe This new addition to Canggu’s dining scene will lure you in with its super cute exterior - it almost doesn’t feel like you’re in Bali. But once you step inside, the vibe shifts completely. It’s a smart dining kind of place, serving a proper Italian menu from antipasti and pizza to pasta and, of course, dessert. The highlights for us were the chicken al mattone and linguine al limone. So yes, this place is not just pretty - the food is genuinely delicious too. ⏰ Opening hours: Tue-Sun, 11am-11pm 📍 Google Map: Studio Pepe Monsieur Spoon The Luc I still remember when Monsieur Spoon was just a little shop in Umalas, and I’d walk there from my aunt’s villa for chocolate tartlets and plain croissants. Now they’re everywhere - not just in Bali, but in big cities all over Indonesia too. Anyway, among all their branches, I find the one at The Luc Canggu especially cute and comfy. They also have a proper dining menu here, so it’s not just pastries and cakes. ⏰ Opening hours: Mon-Sun, 7am-10pm 📍 Google Map: Monsieur Spoon The Luc Image credit: Monsieur Spoon The Luc Google Page You may also like this article: Breakfast Spots in Canggu Worth Waking Up Early For Mara This one is a little further out, technically not in Canggu, but close enough and it's worth mentioning. And if you haven’t explored the Tumbak Bayuh area yet, now’s a good time. It’s much quieter than central Canggu, with plenty of hidden gems like this spot, Mara. It instantly catches your eye the moment you walk in, with bold colours and a fun, playful vibe. The menu isn’t too extensive, but it has everything you need for a good, easy lunch. There’s also a little corner with cute merchandise you can browse while you’re there. ⏰ Opening hours: Mon-Sat, 7.30am-6.30pm 📍 Google Map: Mara Mata Warung, but make it cool. The space is huge and full of personality. You’ll be greeted by super cool murals that kind of set the whole vibe from the moment you walk in. There’s a little shop right at the entrance, a vinyl room tucked at the back, and a lush garden space that’s perfect for private events. Don’t expect traditional warung prices here, though - it’s more of a proper restaurant experience dressed in warung concept (they have a la carte menu too). Familiar flavours, but elevated in a way that’s still approachable and fun. ⏰ Opening hours: Sun-Thu 10am-10pm, Fri-Sat 10am-2am 📍 Google Map: Mata Berawa Image credit: Mata Berawa Instagram Brother Goose Sitting right next to The Garden Bali Kindy, it naturally carries that same playful, family-friendly energy - and of course you can expect a fun but nutritious kids’ menu here. The space is colourful and cheerful, not just in the interiors but also in the menu, haha! Think vibrant smoothies, green pesto omelette, and French toast with berries. ⏰ Opening hours: Mon-Sun, 7am-4pm 📍 Google Map: Brother Goose Image credit: Brother Goose Instagram At the end of the day, it’s not really about “Instagrammable” spots, but places that make you feel good when you’re in them. Somewhere you don’t rush through, somewhere you actually sit, eat, talk, and just be. Hope you find this list useful and thank you for reading!

New Canggu Restaurant Has Arrived: Mykaza at The Arc House

New Canggu Restaurant Has Arrived: Mykaza at The Arc House Canggu is never short of places to eat. From charming little cafes in quiet corners to late-night favourites that keep the crowds coming, there always seems to be a new spot popping up around every corner. And now, there’s another one to add to the list - a place for slow afternoons, golden-hour sunsets, and laid-back weekends in Canggu. Tucked inside The Arc House Canggu, a boutique retreat with 19 private pool suite villas, lies Mykaza - a little rooftop oasis with an easy, feel-good energy. The vibe is elevated yet relaxed, with that effortless barefoot Bali charm. What began as a modern Japanese izakaya concept evolved when the team moved to Bali. Surrounded by the island’s culture, its people, and incredible local produce, the idea grew into something even more special: a space where Japanese roots and Balinese spirit come together beautifully. You may also like this article: Bali Brunch - A Slow Saturday Done Right at Waatu's Otsumami Mykaza, Su CasaA Japanese Menu with Bali in MindBeyond good foodMore information Mykaza, Su Casa Gerardo Barrientos, the F&B Director at Portier Hotels (the operator of The Arc House brand), together with his team really leaned all the way into the idea of building something that doesn’t just exist in Bali, but actually listens to it. The result is a concept where Japanese technique doesn’t overshadow local culture, but lets it shine in its own quiet, confident way. That same balance carries through the space itself. The interiors have a modern Japanese feel - clean, bright, without feeling too minimal or cold. Little rooms with tatami seating add a touch of tradition, while the overall design feels fresh, and airy. Step outside, and the mood shifts into tropical Bali holiday mode with a rooftop pool, and sun loungers. For Gerardo, Mykaza is also about something a bit rare these days - a space where people actually connect, not just sit together while scrolling in silence (we’ve all been there!). And maybe you can already guess it - the name Mykaza sounds a little like “mi casa”, and that’s exactly the idea. A blend of the Japanese name “Mikasa” and the phrase mi casa es tu casa...my home is your home. The hope is that everyone who walks into Mykaza feels that same sense of comfort and belonging. Come as you are and make yourself at home. A Japanese Menu with Bali in Mind On the menu, things get even more interesting. It's where Japanese and Balinese flavours come together in combinations that sound unexpected but make perfect sense the moment they land on your table. Think Babi Guling (Balinese iconic suckling pork) Dry Ramen, Hamachi Miso Matah, and Matcha-Miso Dadar Gulung (coconut-filled rolled pancake). More Japanese comfort dishes not to miss - start with the Asparagus & Ebi Tempura, Sake Tenkasu, or Tuna Wonton. Then move on to the Katsu Bali Curry before wrapping things up with Indonesia’s all-time favourite afternoon tea snack: Pisang Goreng (banana fritters) served with black sesame gelato. It’s a pairing that deserves a spotlight of its own. The drinks are just as fun - with cocktails featuring jamu (Indonesia’s traditional herbal drink), Arak Bali (Balinese distilled spirit), and tea-based creations, the island finds its way into every glass, quietly reminding you where you are. You may also like this article: SKAI Bar & Grill in Legian - Same Soul, Refined Experience Beyond good food Mykaza is very much a team-led space too. Head Chef Andy, Head Mixologist Agus, and the wider crew all shape the menu together - with the Balinese team playing a big part in adding those quiet local nuances that make everything feel real, not performative. And beyond the food, it’s everything else that comes with it: a rooftop pool, sunset views, and that easy Canggu rhythm where, as I said in my previous article, no one’s really in a rush here. And even though life in Bali can feel like one long holiday, weekends still carry that special kind of magic where slowing down and sharing good food just feels even better. Looking ahead, Mykaza is already shaping up to be more than just a restaurant. Sunday set brunches, sake tastings, cigar and whisky nights, and laid-back poolside gatherings are all in the works. Because at its core, Mykaza isn’t trying to be the next “hot spot” - it is a home you will always come back to.
