Friends Bar
Friends is one of the newest and coolest additions to Bali’s bar scene.
They also have the best plant-based snack menu that we’ve ever tried. Their meat-based offerings are very good too.
Our carnivorous friends love coming to Friends because they agree that the food here knocks it out of the park.

Black Sand Brewery
If you’re more in the mood for a pub environment, why not try Black Sand Brewery?
Not only does Black Sand Brewery brew Bali’s craft beers, but it also imports a variety of other beers.
You can enjoy views over the rice fields from the beer garden, and the crowd here tends to be relaxed and unpretentious.
Try their food. The mac and cheese brisket croquettes are super tasty and the ideal companion to a lovely cold schooner.

Revolver Espresso
Revolver is open all day, serving up exceptional coffees, and it’s easy to overlook how quickly it transitions into an aperitivo lounge as the evening rolls in.
They effortlessly switch from a coffee shop to crafting coffee-inspired cocktails in no time at all.
If you’re after a wild night out filled with good vibes on Fridays, you can’t go wrong with the party at Revolver. It’s no wonder that this spot consistently makes the list of the best bars in Canggu!

Bar Souvenir
The low-intervention wine list at Bar Souvenir is considered one of the best in Bali, and if you want one of the best bars in Canggu for a quiet drink, this is it.
This cocktail bar is always happy to experiment with new flavours and the latest drinks (what they can do with cherry liquor is impressive).
Whatever you have to drink, we can recommend their grazing plates of tasty cheese from around the world. They’re super delicious.

Roots is a plant-based cafe, and they also keep to that philosophy with their signature cocktails.

The Shady Fox
The Shady family has opened a range of cocktail bars and speakeasies across Bali, and The Shady Fox is one of the best bars in Canggu.

The Shady Pig
The Shady Pig has a bit more glamour than The Shady Fox, and they really enjoy experimenting with cocktails for a lively Saturday night.
This spot even crafts its own spirits and infuses them with local herbs for a distinctive flair. Our personal favourite is The Chester, which artfully combines wine, whiskey, and other ingredients for a truly unique taste experience!

Leblon
This bar was inspired by the Brazilian capital, Rio De Janeiro, and it’s a place to drink and be seen as part of the beautiful people.
As you’d expect, they do a fantastic caipirinha, and their garlic prawns are to die for, too.
The indoors meets outdoors setting makes for a lovely place to do a night-long drinking session.

Asian-infused cocktails are the name of the game at Ji, and you can get the best sunset tunes to accompany them.
It’s the panoramic views of Canggu Beach that people go for, though everything else has to take second place to that.

The Bench is a sports bar with some decent happy hours, and they brew their beer on-site.

Deus Ex Machina
This gallery, skate ramp, motorbike repair centre and bar are very much targeted at the biker crowd.
However, given the cheap happy hours, they tend to attract plenty of people searching for a cold one at a reasonable price.

Luigi’s Hot Pizza
Luigi’s Hot Pizza isn’t just famous for its impressive metre-long pizzas; it’s also a spot for solid cocktails and heaps of fun.
Be sure to make a reservation, as Luigi’s tends to get quite busy at night when the DJs start spinning tracks and the drinks start flowing!

Xbar
There was a time when Xbar wasn’t a bar. It was the minimart where partygoers gathered to buy pre-party drinks.
Somebody saw that and thought, Why not turn it into a bar? And then they did, and they did a great job of it.
It’s now a great spot to kick off your evening before you move on to the actual party.

Bistro C Sports Bar – FINNS Recreation Club
If you want to watch sports, you need a great sports bar, and Bistro C is the best of Canggu’s sports bars.
There are dozens of screens for you to watch the action from events around the world, and if there’s a major tournament on (like the soccer World Cup or the AFL finals) they set up giant screens on the beach, too.
There’s nothing better than beer, sports and great food at a beach bar set up to ensure your comfort and happiness, is there? So, don’t miss Bistro C!

Will Meyrick, one of Bali’s most famous chefs, is the brainchild behind Billy Ho.
If you’re looking for expertly crafted cocktails with a local theme and a Japanese twist, you’ve come to the right place.
Their Tiramisu Martini, for example, is the stuff of legends – you can’t find it anywhere else in Bali.
They also do some excellent Japanese food if you’re in the mood for dinner with a “Feed Me” menu which is just 400,000 IDR ++ for seven courses!

The cocktails here are exquisite creations designed to look beautiful and taste as good as they look.
They even have a range of interactive cocktails known as the “Enigma” series!
This is a place for a serious night out.

Club Soda has distinguished roots and it’s owned by the same team as Locavore NXT (one of Bali’s best restaurants).
They use only local ingredients to create some of the finest cocktail concoctions on the iisland.
They also have an amazing list of bar bites which will delight your taste buds as well as satisfying your hunger.
They call this place a “postmodern happiness portal” and that works for us.

Swingers Tapas Bar
There aren’t many bars where you can get drunk and then get thrown 40 meters into the air on a swing, but this is definitely one where you can!
We confess, we chickened out on the swing ride but we did enjoy their creative menu of first-rate cocktails.
Their “Sexy Sunset” is a gorgeous thing, which looks great on Instagram.
Then, pair it with their excellent Asian-inspired tapas menu and you’re ready to fly, maybe even literally.

Bar Souvenir
Bar Souvenir is achingly hip and one of those bars that only those in the know are ever seen in.
This is a bar for conversation and long evenings of exploring an inventive and exciting cocktail menu.
They also have an interesting wine list consisting of “low-intervention” wines.
We’re also impressed with how often their food menu is reinvented, there’s always something new to try at Souvenir.

Segno
This speakeasy style joint is run by Yutaka Nakashima – one of the best professional mixologists on the island.
Every drink here is handcrafted with love and attention to the small details – they even cut the ice to ensure your drink has an even taste throughout!
We recommend starting with their signature cocktail list and then work you way through premium list too.
They do some decent bar snacks too to ensure you won’t want to leave.

Upstairs Bali
This is a very upmarket establishment which is all about the sense of occasion.
There’s no banging music and nothing on the menu is “value priced”.
This is where you get cocktails that are crafted and tailored to your tastes.
The environment is very attractive too and you can easily settle in for the night at Upstairs Bali.

Alma Tapas Bar
Alma is one of the very few authentic tapas bars in Bali and if you like small plates of Spanish inspired cuisine, you just can’t go wrong here.
The dishes are impeccably presented and they’re each a flavour sensation.
And, of course, it wouldn’t be a tapas bar without some incredible cocktails to go with it all.
Everything here looks as good as it tastes and you can easily liven up your Instagram feed over drinks at Alma.

Dino’s Bar
Dino’s is a hidden gem away from the beach roads and it’s one of our favourite spots in Canggu.
With live music several nights a week, extremely cheap beer (particularly in happy hour between 6 and 8 p.m.) and the friendliest owner in town, you can’t go wrong.
This is place where locals, expats and tourists hang out together in harmony and enjoy company and community.

Little Havana Bali
Little Havana bills itself as the “only shots bar” in Bali and there’s a 24 shot challenge for the brave (or insane).
If you enjoy lots of brightly coloured shots and cheap tacos, then you can’t really go wrong here.
It’s a long way from the main action in Canggu but that also means it’s much cheaper than many of the other bars here too.

Baliwood
The cocktails at Baliwood are incredibly strong and you will want to pace yourself if you want to party all night long.
There’s also a tattooist in the basement of this place where you can get yourself inked as you drink.
The crowd at Baliwood is very welcoming and it’s one of the easiest bars in Bali to make new friends in.
The music is all on vinyl, the staff are helpful and there are usually games to be played too.
