Ivy Cafe is a lovely location and one of the cafes in Ubud that works very well on Instagram while you decide if they have the best coffee in town.

There are some excellent vegetarian dishes on the menu and this cafe serves a wide range of tasty international options.

If you arrive later in the day, they also do some excellent cold beer to go with their dinner menu.

Livingstone Holyground

This is a stylish cafe with plenty of vegan options and it tends to lends itself to being a creative space for digital nomads at times too.

The locally sourced ingredients make the drinks excellent and we can’t resist a flat white in Livingstone Holyground.

Monkey Cave Espresso Ubud

As you would expect this charming cafe is on the Monkey Forest Road out of Ubud and it’s sat in lush greenery with its own permaculture garden.

There’s a diverse menu of drinks on offer and they have some excellent smoothie bowls too. We think it’s the perfect spot for a drink when you’re heading to or from the forest and who knows? The monkeys might join you at the cafe too, it’s not unheard of.

BitterSweet

We love the cinnamon rolls at this cafe and the dining experience is always pleasant and cozy. The decor may not be the stuff that a dream vacation is made of, but it’s stylish and interesting all the same.

Vegans will be pleased to know there are non-dairy offerings available for vegan coffee and our friend was really pleased with their oat milk latte.

Bun Bali Cafe

They are all about local ingredients at the Bun Bali Cafe and we were very impressed with the quality of their coffee which is robusta heavy but still offers a very distinct taste.

We think it’s a must-visit spot of the cafes in Ubud because of the super friendly staff who will always take time out to make you feel welcome and happy.

Namaskara Coffee & Superfoods Ubud

If you’re in search of a clear cafe experience with stunning views of Ubud and some of the healthiest food options around then you’re going to love Namaskara.

We don’t know of many other cafes in Ubud where you can get fair-trade gluten-free pasta. We can’t wait for our next visit because we’ve barely made a dent in the menu so far.

Friends Cafe And Bistro Bali

This is a great place for a coffee after exploring the local rice field terraces and it has a wonderful cozy atmosphere where you can easily study or work while you dine.

It also has one of the best steaks in town and for a very reasonable price, so if you’re in the mood for a meaty treat, we can’t recommend Friends Cafe enough.

Gangga Coffee Ubud & Roastery

Gangga Coffee is an excellent coffee shop on the road into town and it’s away from the main tourist areas and the panoramic views of some of the other coffee shops.

That means it relies on the strength of its beans to bring in the customers and there, it excels. You’re going to be glad you got off the beaten path when you visit Gangga Coffee.

Suka Espresso

We went to Suka for breakfast and will definitely come back for the taste of their espresso again in the future. They do an amazing gluten-free sourdough bread that our friend loved too.

However, it’s the huge breakfast plate that made this one of our favourite cafes in Ubud, it’s unbeatable value and the coffee is just the icing on the cake.

Ubud Coffee Roastery

Many cafes in Ubud take their coffee seriously but, perhaps, none more so than the Ubud Coffee Roastery. They will employ every extraction method known to man to ensure you get the perfect cup of coffee.

Try the espresso, the pour-over, the cold brew, etc. and each of them will deliver a new taste sensation. Sometimes, it has to be all about the coffee and that’s how it is at the Ubud Coffee Roastery.

It’s one of the best cafes in Ubud for chilling out in tranquil surroundings without a care in the world. The coffee is excellent too and their Indonesian cuisine is first-rate.

Genius Cafe Gianyar

They don’t stock oat milk but do have most other dairy alternatives at Genius Cafe and their staff are super friendly when they make your drinks too.

We like that there’s a choice of air-conditioned and non-air-conditioned spaces inside, so you can always be sure of being comfy at Genius Cafe.

Seniman Coffee Studio

Seniman Coffee Studio is one of the best cafes in Ubud for coffee snobs. That’s because Seniman Coffee is all about the beans. They’re obsessive about them.

You can tell they’re doing something right when you see how many Indonesian tourists are willing to pay a premium for the coffee here.

Mudra Cafe

The architecture at the Mudra Cafe is amazing and the big draw for the influencer crowd. However, it’s the healthy food that is clearly prepared with love and care that keeps people hanging around for most of the day.

However, be warned, this is a proper Balinese cafe and sometimes the service can be a bit more relaxed than you’re used to elsewhere in the world.

Watercress Ubud

The coffee at this place is very good but what has us going back time and time again is the food which is amazing and great value for money.

The eggs benedict is as good as any we’ve found on the island and the French toast is probably the best in Bali. Seriously.

Daily Baguette Ubud

What could be more French than a sandwich or a croissant and a tasty cup of coffee? Nothing, that’s what and that’s why the Daily Baguette is so popular.

If you want a taste of Paris here in Bali, then you just can’t miss out on this Ubud Cafe. We always pass by even if we’re not dining to pick up some bread, it’s amazing.

Lazy Cats Cafe

You come for the coffee at Lazy Cats but often find yourself letting the day pass by as you enjoy their cocktails and excellent treats like the dark chocolate Alfajores, which is sublime.

It’s a full-on vegetarian restaurant and can usually accommodate vegan requests, which makes it a must-do for the yoga crowd of Ubud.

Juice Ja Cafe

Yes, they sell coffee and it’s very good but the star of the show at this cafe is the incredible range of juices that they sell to go with your coffee.

In fact, they can even help you carry out a juice fast if you’re interested in a detox diet.

USHA Cafe & Bakery

There’s nothing we like more than an afternoon at USHA enjoying a cake with a coffee. That’s the way that life should be and their Ukrainian influences lead to some very interesting cake creations too.

The interior is worth a few photos for your Instagram feed too and Agung, the head waiter, will be only too happy to help you take the perfect shot.

KAFE Ubud

This is a simple, honest road side cafe with an emphasis on big portions for low prices and who can argue with that?

In addition to super coffee, they provide some of the best Balinese vegan grub on the island. Don’t miss out on KAFE.

Alchemy

If you want the best vegan coffee shop in Ubud, then Alchemy has to be in contention for that title.

This is more of a vegan restaurant with a coffee bar inside but their combination of delicious food and specialty coffee is hard to beat even for coffee lovers who prefer a more meat-based diet.

Those seeking a hidden gem that does good food and great coffee won’t be disappointed with Alchemy.

Kayunan Warung And Coffee

This is a traditional Balinese warung and if you want an authentically Indonesian coffee complete with condensed milk, this is the place to go.

All the ingredient here are locally sourced and the food is served in well-presented and generous portions which make it a top spot for some cheap eats in Ubud too.

Tukies Coconut Shop

Coffee sweetened with coconut milk? Don’t mind if we do and that’s what Tukies is all about, creating amazing things from coconut.

So, make sure to leave some room for their refreshing coconut ice cream which is the best way that we can think of to chill out in the heat of a Balinese afternoon.

Sunny Coffee

Our iced coffee here was fantastic and it means that we stayed to enjoy some of their tasty treats and we can’t recommend the chocolate and banana croissant enough!

One of our friends opted for the smoothie bowl and we think he was happy as he didn’t speak a word from start to finish as he hoovered it down.

FREAK Coffee

FREAK is an Ubud institution and it was to everyone’s delight that it survived the Covid shut down and has returned to business as usual in the town.

The coffee is served in many different Instagrammable ways and it’s a popular spot with influencers and YouTubers because of that.

Muse Cafe & Art

Muse Cafe is more than a coffee shop it’s also a wine bar with an excellent selection of reasonably priced wines (by the glass or bottle).

And, of course, it’s in a wonderful rooftop location providing a wonderful view over the town of Ubud as you sample their Indian, Middle Eastern and Mediterranean fusion dining options.

This cafe serves organic food wherever possible which is always a welcome treat.

Cafe Vespa

The coffee is good here but it’s the pizzas that will keep you coming back, they’re so thin and crispy that you can’t help ordering one every time you go to Cafe Vespa.

We’re also very partial to their Apple Berry Crumble which is absolutely delicious.
