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 🙂

Restaurants in Legian and Seminyak: Kata Bella's Picks 2026

Restaurants in Legian and Seminyak. I know some of you might think these neighbourhoods aren’t as cool as they used to be. But for many families travelling with kids, they remain a top choice because of their proximity to the airport and the convenience they offer. You’ll find everything you need here - from great 5-star hotels and beaches to shops, supermarkets, medical centres, and, most importantly, plenty of places to eat. Legian and Seminyak are packed with fantastic restaurants, from breakfast spots to dinner favourites. I used to live around here, and on a recent visit, I spent some time exploring both old favourites and new openings to find the places that I’d happily recommend to my readers. So, here are some of the places that made the list. You may also like this article: Breakfast Spots in Canggu Worth Waking Up Early For Farmer's Daughter It's not ranked by favourites, but this new spot in Legian deserves to be at the top of the list. Not only is the place cute and cosy, but it also serves excellent pastries and coffee. If you're after a proper brunch or lunch, the menu has some interesting options like cauliflower steak and fried chicken waffles. For something quick to grab on your way to the beach - which is only a two-minute walk away, you can get one of their baguette sandwiches. And whatever you do, please save room for dessert! The pistachio kunafa mousse is a must-try, or come back just for the cakes because they're absolutely worth it. Mister Wasabi A newbie in Legian, Mister Wasabi is already making waves with its creative Japanese menu with a luxe twist, featuring dishes like Japanese fried rice with Wagyu Simo striploin, foie gras and caviar, plus a must-try chirashizushi. Upstairs, you’ll find a modern Japanese restaurant with an open kitchen for a more elevated dining experience, while downstairs is a lively izakaya for sharing plates, fun cocktails, and a more relaxed night out. Makan Place This place is best known for its pork knuckle, which they say is enough for two. But I won't judge if you decide to take that as a personal challenge. Makan Place is my go-to pit stop whenever I'm running errands around Legian because the menu covers pretty much every craving. You can have some "sneaky holiday food" like a Korean fried chicken burger or chicken parmy, or opt for something a little lighter like my favourite Asian chicken salad or the pan-seared salmon. And if you've never tried Indonesian or Balinese food before, this is also a great place for your first taste. I'd recommend starting with the beef rendang or the fried duck - both are solid introductions to local flavours. Image credit: Makan Place Instagram You may also like this article: Aesthetic Cafes in Ubud - 6 Beautiful Spots Worth Adding to Your Itinerary Miya Social Another new spot in Legian, this one is perfect for families. The restaurant is spacious, with plenty of parking for both cars and scooters (important for Legian!), plus a dedicated playground area to keep the little ones entertained. Their signature dish is Miya's charcoal chicken, served with your choice of sauce ranging from mild and medium to spicy or sambal matah, and you can have it with sides like sweet corn and coleslaw. Another standout is the peri-peri chicken pizza, which is well worth ordering for the table. And then of course, dessert! Try their sticky toffee pudding with miso toffee sauce, almond streusel, and vanilla gelato. Three words: yum, yumm, and yummm! Wild Habit Pizza From the name, you can probably guess that wood-fired pizza is the star of the show here. Located on a corner lot in the heart of Seminyak, it's one of those places that's easier to reach on foot if you're already exploring the area, rather than dealing with traffic and parking. I've eaten here more than once, and these are some of my personal favourites: start with the charred octopus skewers and truffle & brie croquettes, then move on to the spicy salami & mozzarella pizza and spicy chorizo vodka pasta. If you're a truffle lover, the truffle pappardelle is also a winner. And please don't skip dessert! My favourite is the Italian flourless chocolate cake. TENKAI Japanese, but not quite Japanese. TENKAI is a Japanese Nikkei restaurant that brings together Japanese and Peruvian cuisines. With an interesting mix of Japanese techniques and Peruvian influences, every dish delivers a surprising burst of flavours that you’ll have to try for yourself - nothing like your ordinary Japanese food. Located inside the legendary Padma Resort Legian, TENKAI is also known for its Izakaya Nights and Teppanyaki experience, making it a fun spot for food lovers and those looking to celebrate special moments. They have recently launched new creations, including the Rocoto Tiradito Lobster, Buta Yakigyoza, Anticuchero Maki Nikkei, Parihuela Udon, and Premium Nigiri Nikkei. La Naya From hearty Japanese comfort food to quick bites and sweet treats, La Naya has all your cravings covered. Alongside classic Japanese favourites, you'll find koppe pan, fresh onigiri, buttery pastries, and refreshing kakigori that are perfect for Bali's tropical weather. Pair that with its bright and spacious interior, and you've got a restaurant that's just as suitable for a family gathering as it is for an afternoon catch-up with friends. Me Vui You can eaily spot this place when you're walking around Legian. Its bright yellow façade practically invites you in, and it looks just like an eatery you'd stumble upon in Vietnam. The menu covers all the Vietnamese classics you'd hope for; comforting bowls of pho, delicious banh mi, spring rolls, and many more. I've been here so many times and so far I haven't had a bad meal. It's the kind of place that's equally good for a quick lunch, or a casual dinner with friends. If you're not sure what to order, don't stress too much, because it's one of those places where almost everything you order is a safe bet. Image credit: Me Vui Instagram You may also like this article: My Little Canggu Restaurant List - Part 1 Sushimi I have so many fond memories from my younger years at this Sushimi branch, and I'm happy to report that they’ve managed to maintain their quality after all this time. If you're after a quick sushi fix, the sushi train is the way to go. They also have an a la carte menu of Japanese comfort food and snacks. If you're arriving hungry, I'd recommend the bento set. It's a meal in itself, with a little bit of everything; sushi, edamame, karaage, and more. It also comes with miso soup and iced or hot green tea. The space is quite small and there's no dedicated parking area, so I'd suggest coming by scooter, walking if you're nearby, or simply ordering a Gojek. Sinaloa When you arrive at Sinaloa, you'll be greeted by the giant skulls at the entrance - one of the restaurant's most iconic features. If you enjoy people-watching, grab a seat downstairs by the bar, and if you'd prefer something a little quieter, head upstairs where it's usually more relaxed. This Mexican-inspired restaurant is open from breakfast through to late evening for drinks. The menu is packed with crowd-pleasers, including nachos, burritos, tacos, and churros, alongside a good selection of cocktails and refreshing drinks. While newer neighbourhoods in Bali continue to steal the spotlight, Legian and Seminyak remain two of the island's most reliable areas when it comes to food and convenience. Whether you're looking for a quick coffee, a family-friendly lunch, local Indonesian flavours, or a long dinner that turns into a late night out, there's something here for everyone. And just like my other restaurant lists, this one will continue to grow as I discover more places worth sharing. I hope you find this guide useful, and I hope it leads you to some delicious meals along the way. Happy holiday and thank you for reading!

Bali Brunch: A Slow Saturday Done Right at Waatu's Otsumami

Bali Brunch: A Slow Saturday Done Right at Waatu's Otsumami Bali is small, but also big. It always feels like if you live in one neighbourhood here, everywhere else suddenly becomes far - especially if you're based in "Republic of Canggu". On a very unplanned weekend, a friend of mine who had just left her job and is currently thriving in her free-time era had this idea of spending a Saturday in Ungasan for an all-you-can-eat Japanese brunch at Waatu. Yes, Ungasan. Because when you can do anything and go anywhere, why not choose somewhere that takes a couple of hours (or more) to get to, right? Hehe. I’d heard of Waatu before, but all I really knew was that it’s an open-flame grill restaurant with a cliffside view. After a little Instagram research, I found out they also have a nice pool, and there’s no gas stove involved in the kitchen - everything runs on fire and charcoal. What a traditional, elemental way to cook! Very interesting. Also, I love Japanese food. So I thought, okay - let’s go! You may also like this article: SKAI Bar & Grill in Legian: Same Soul, Refined Experience My first impression After the long journey from Canggu up to Bukit (the hilly area of Bali), we were rewarded with a calm and peaceful atmosphere -like finding a little cliffside nook with a view that made me realise I might have been taking Bali for granted just because I live here. We took a moment to soak it all in before heading to our table. At this point, I was getting very excited to eat. The warm and welcoming vibe that greeted us as soon as we arrived A table full of Japanese favourites Move over avocado on toast! Because this is more my kind of brunch. Upon arrival, you will be given a list of menu to choose from. We started simple with a bowl of edamame, then little by little we moved into the otsumami (traditional Japanese savoury snacks). You can expect Japanese comfort food like kaarage chicken, yakitori, pork & chive gyoza, pork ribs (this was one of the highlights!). There was also a lighter option like seaweed salad and chawanmushi. If you’re feeling a bit extra, you can also upgrade your set with dishes like lobster tail and flank steak. The brunch runs for two hours, which I think is enough to enjoy the food without rushing. Everything was delicious, but make sure you save some room for dessert! You may also like this article: Restaurants in Legian and Seminyak: Kata Bella's Picks 2026 The Vibe Continued If you’re not in the mood for dessert, you can round off your brunch with one of their cocktails instead. Luna di Limo, a lime aperitivo with lychee liqueur, is a great choice if you like tropical fruit flavours. Or be adventurous with a touch of Indonesian flavour, like pandan mixed with vanilla in Verdant Silhouette. Fun fact: their drinks are made in-house using their own fermentation techniques, making them anything but ordinary. The whole Saturday then carried on with a live DJ playing coastal house and upbeat tracks into the afternoon. It had been a while since I had a Saturday like that - slow and unrushed. A curated selection of their in-house fermented drinks The Verdict So...the big question, was the trip to Ungasan worth it? Haha, yes! Definitely. I’d do it again in a heartbeat, and next time I’m bringing more of my girl friends along for the ride. By the way, if you come for the brunch, you also get complimentary access to the pool overlooking a cliffside view of the sea, so don’t forget to bring your swimmers, sunnies, books, and other pool-day essentials. Thanks for reading - hope this inspires your next weekend getaway to Ungasan.
