Vegan Cafes in Canggu: 5 Nice Restaurants for Your Daily Greens

Vegan Cafes in Canggu

I’m not vegan, but when I really think about it, the Indonesian diet is actually heavily plant-based. I grew up eating tempe, tofu, steamed mushrooms, stir-fried vegetables, and vegetable soups without ever thinking of them as “vegan food” – they were just normal everyday meals at home. Meat was often more of a side dish or something for special occasions, while vegetables, soy-based proteins, rice, and simple home cooking were the real foundation of the diet. In my family, at least.

So now that I’m an adult with free will and access to basically any food I want, I still naturally enjoy vegetables every now and then. My parents eat almost entirely plant-based these days too, so I guess I still follow that rhythm – and living in Canggu definitely makes it easy, because vegan options are everywhere.

Here’s a mix of places I’ve personally tried myself, plus a few recommendations from my friends too.

The Shady Shack

They’ve been around for ages, and they’re proof that vegan and vegetarian food doesn’t have to be sad. Find colourful nourishing plates, vegan burgers, smoothie bowls, fresh juices, and raw vegan desserts in a relaxed jungle-like setting hidden away from the main road.

📍 Jl. Tanah Barak No.53, Canggu, Kuta Utara, Badung Regency, Bali
⏰ Monday to Sunday, 7.30am-10.30pm

I Am Vegan Babe

This place has quite an extensive menu; vegan tacos, burgers, breakfast plates, desserts, cakes, smoothies, and comfort food that doesn’t feel “too healthy”. hehe. The vibe is lively, social, modern, and it’s become pretty popular among travellers staying around Canggu.

📍 Jl. Tanah Barak No.49, Canggu, Kuta Utara, Badung Regency, Bali
⏰ Monday to Sunday, 7am-10pm

KYND Community

When you spot a bright pink restaurant on Jalan Nelayan, that’s it, that’s KYND Community. And yes, the meals really are as cute in real life as they look on Instagram. You can build your own protein bowl, or go for pasta, burgers, sandwiches, smoothie bowls, and colourful brunch plates – because vegan food doesn’t always have to be salad, right?

📍 Jl. Nelayan No.31, Canggu, Kuta Utara, Bali
⏰ Monday to Sunday, 7am-9pm

Warung Dua Hati

I feel like this place is underrated, but if you’re craving vegan Indonesian food, give Warung Dua Hati a try. Alongside local dishes, they also serve Western meals and smoothie bowls too, so you still have plenty of options. Ps. “Dua Hati” means “two hearts,” so I’m guessing that’s why the rice is heart-shaped, hehe.

📍 Jl. Pantai Batu Mejan No.12D, Canggu, Kuta Utara, Bali
⏰ Monday to Sunday, 7am-10pm

Oma Jamu

Here’s another vegan Indonesian spot worth trying. Oma Jamu has a warung-style display with ready-made dishes, which is perfect if you arrive starving and want to eat straight away. And from the name “Oma Jamu,” you can expect that they also have a great selection of homemade jamu (Indonesian traditional herbal drinks).

📍 Jl. Pantai Batu Bolong No.46A, Canggu, Bali
⏰ Mon–Sat 8AM–11PM, Sun 10AM–9PM

Those are my five spots for now. But really, other than the vegan-labelled cafés, it’s super easy to find plant-based options everywhere in Canggu (and in Indonesia). Most restaurants are also pretty flexible these days and cater to all kinds of diets. Hope you find this useful, and stay tuned for more on the list.

Japanese Restaurants in Bali for Casual Dining and Special Celebrations

Japanese Restaurants in Bali If I could only eat one type of cuisine for the rest of my life, I think I’d pick Japanese. I just love Japanese food, and I love how there’s pretty much everything you could want rice, noodles, salads, soups, grilled and fried stuff, red meat, seafood, things served hot, things served cold, aagghhh, there's something for every mood and craving. I’ve never actually been to Japan (yet!), and it’s definitely on my dream travel list, but luckily, Japanese food is pretty easy to find wherever you are - including right here in Bali. So until that Japan trip finally happens, I’ll happily eat my way through the Japanese restaurants here. I’ve picked a few restaurants that I think are great for both everyday dining and special occasions. Hope you like them! You may also like this article: Where to Eat Indonesian Food in Bali Japanese Restaurants in BaliTake BaliMister WasabiRayjin TeppanyakiOkuzonoDaimyoTsuneYume Take Bali Take (read: tuh-kay) is a bit of a legend in my family. I’ve been coming here with then fam since I was little, and the owner was, and still is - always there to greet us. The place itself has barely changed since I was a kid, which is probably why it feels so nostalgic every time I come back. They have pretty much every Japanese comfort food you could crave from sushi, bento, ramen, teppanyaki, everything. Take even inspired my parents to open their own little ramen warung in Yogyakarta, hehe. So yes, this place is pretty special to us. 📍Google Map: TAKE Authentic Japanese Cuisine Image credit: Take Instagram You may also like this article: The Ultimate Canggu Restaurant List by Kata Bella Mister Wasabi Legian’s dining scene is still alive and kicking, ladies and gentlemen! Mister Wasabi is one of the latest additions bringing fresh energy to the neighbourhood, with a creative Japanese menu that leans into the luxe side of things. Upstairs is a sleek Japanese restaurant centred around an open kitchen, while downstairs takes a more casual izakaya approach, with sharing plates and playful cocktails. Menu highlights include Japanese fried rice with wagyu simo striploin, foie gras and caviar, as well as a must-try chirashizushi. 📍Google Map: Mister Wasabi Image credit: Mister Wasabi Instagram Rayjin Teppanyaki Rayjin has three locations in Bali - Seminyak, Ubud and Jimbaran, although from what I can remember, I’ve only been to the Seminyak one. It’s a smart-casual spot, so it’s a little pricier than your everyday Japanese joint, but I’d say it’s worth it. A few must-tries are the beef saikoro steak and, my personal favourite, the chicken nanban with garlic rice. If you’re planning to go for the teppanyaki, make sure to book ahead as they have allocated seating times, and it can get busy even during low season. 📍Google Map: Rayjin Teppanyaki, Rayjin Ubud, Rayjin Sidewalk Jimbaran Image credit: Rayjin Instagram Okuzono This spacious Japanese restaurant has a fun interior, with little booths that almost feel like you’re dining in a treehouse. The menu is extensive, with plenty of food and drink options. And when I say extensive, I mean it - they even have quite a selection for vegetarians. I’d say it’s best to come with a group so you can order a bunch of things and try a bit of everything. It’s one of those places that works just as well for a casual dining as it does for special celebrations. 📍Google Map: Okuzono Japanese Dining Bali Image credit: Okuzono Instagram You may also like this article: Restaurants and Cafes in Ubud with Rice Field Views Daimyo If you’re looking for somewhere a little fancy for Japanese dinner, maybe you’ll like Daimyo. They specialise in premium cuts of meat cooked to perfection, but also have a seafood set menu if you’re more into seafood. Aside from the main protein, they have all the usual Japanese favourites on the side, like chawan mushi, wakame salad, karaage and katsu. The elegant interiors give it a bit of a metropolitan feel, perfect for one of those rare occasions when I feel like dressing up instead of my usual “Bali uniform” of tank tops, shorts and sandals. 📍Google Map: Daimyo Bali Image credit: Daimyo Bali Instagram Tsune The Kata Bella team found this little gem in Sanur. They do sushi a little differently here - instead of the usual sushi train, they have a sushi boat! Very cute. The vibe is smart casual, and there’s also an outdoor seating area, which is a nice touch. The menu is packed all the Japanese favourites you’ll want to try, so it’s very easy to over-order, but make sure you save some room for their crème brûlée. It’s the perfect grand finale! 📍Google Map: Tsune Japanese Restaurant Sanur by Wonderspace Image credit: Tsune Instagram Yume This is a good one to keep on your Denpasar dining list. They have all your Japanese favourites, from beautifully presented sushi and sashimi to grilled dishes and an omakase menu if you’re feeling a little fancy. The space has an elegant yet relaxed Izakaya-style feel, with sake, Japanese-inspired cocktails, and wine to pair with your meal - or simply enjoy as an after-dinner drink. 📍Google Map: Yume Japanese Dining Image credit: Yume Instagram Ok, hope you find this list useful. I have covered a few of Bali’s neighbourhoods, so hopefully there’s a Japanese restaurant here that makes it onto your next dinner list. And then, all that’s left is deciding what to order.

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.
