The wine list here is very good value for money and it’s popular for Sunday lunches (we’d advise booking in advance to be certain of a seat at Ely’s on Sunday).
The best thing here though is the dessert menu which is out of this world and will make every member of the family very happy that they came.

Pizza Bagus is old school Italian restaurant that believes in family fun and great home cooking. Their pizzas are excellent and their pasta is first-rate.
But what makes this an ideal family day out is the foosball table, the dartboard, colouring sheets at every table for little ones and even a custom play area! Pizza Bagus has thought of everything.
That way, the adults can enjoy eating and drinking at Pizza Bagus, while the kids amuse themselves (for hours if our nippers are anything to go by).

Every dish is assembled with love and presented with care and your kids will be thrilled to see that food doesn’t just have to taste good, but can look as good as it tastes.

WAHAHA, Jimbaran
This restaurant loves to welcome families and large groups to its setting in Jimbaran and the outdoor area is absolutely lovely.
They operate a “nose to tail” philosophy which means none of the animals you eat here are wasted. Their pork ribs are truly sublime and the ideal food for little ones who love a hit of sweet BBQ sauce.
We, on the other hand, tend to opt for the crispy pork knuckle which is one of the most tasty pork dishes around and the feel of the crackling between your teeth just can’t be beaten.

This cafe is completely charming and High Tea is the occasion that makes this one of the finest family-friendly restaurants in Bali.
Go with the children’s high tea and enjoy everything on Alice in Wonderland-themed dishes and some of the most perfect child-favourite foods out there.
You will need to book this in advance as Biku gets very, very busy and deservedly so, from our experience, this is the sort of day out that can make a childhood.

Alma Tapas Bar, Canggu
Tapas is great for kids because you’re buying small-sized child-finger-friendly portions and if they don’t like something, they don’t need to dwell on it, because something else will be along in a minute.
Manchego cheese, chicken drumettes with a honey glaze, etc. all seem to be well received by our children, mind you, the food at Alma is very, very good.
They also do an excellent selection of both mocktails and cocktails depending on how much alcohol you want to consume on holiday.

When the kids have finished playing, they can get some awesome grub on the Little Sprouts Menu which is good value for money and packed with fresh and healthy kid’s favourites.
We like the laid-back atmosphere of this place and its warm, friendly colour scheme too.

FAQs
Which Part Of Bali Is Best For Families?
We can’t stress too much that all of Bali is family-friendly and that wherever you end up on the island, outside of a few bars and nightclubs, children are going to be welcome.
Balinese people love children and will often volunteer to keep kids entertained with fun games in hotels, cafes and restaurants in Bali, while you eat.
However, there are two resort towns that prove to be the most popular with families. The first is Nusa Dua which has lovely white sand beaches and some of the most expensive high-end brand-name hotels on the island.
The other is Sanur, which is famous for its relaxed atmosphere, excellent beach boardwalk and the best sunrise on the island. It’s also one of the best places on the island for family swimming on the beach thanks to the lack of strong currents and mild waves.
How Much Does A Fancy Dinner Cost In Bali?
It very much depends on you and your definition of fancy. You could easily eat in one of Bali’s fine dining restaurants for $100-$200 USD (that’s $150-$300 AUD) if you go easy on the wine list and don’t eat the most expensive thing on the menu.
However, you could also go all in and spend thousands of dollars in a single sitting if you wanted to. Imported Kobe beef, caviar, foie gras and rare bottles of imported wines are going to see the bill rise exponentially.
Is Bali Indonesia Family-Friendly?
Yes! Bali (and Indonesia as a whole) is very child-friendly. You will find that most restaurants in Bali are family-friendly restaurants.
You will find plenty of activities to do on family holidays that involve the whole family and the local people are always pleased to see children and will welcome them to their establishments with open arms and hearts.
What Is There To Do In Bali For Kids?

Final Thoughts On The Best Family Friendly Restaurants In Bali
If you’re in search of a family-friendly restaurant in Bali, you won’t be disappointed. Our list of the best family-friendly restaurants should be seen as a starting point as nearly every restaurant in Bali is a family-friendly restaurant.
Many have organized kids activities or a swimming pool in addition to a family-friendly menu and delicious food.
You can even enjoy a family-friendly meal at the best of the world’s beach clubs, FINNS Beach Club! We hope to welcome you and your family the next time you’re in Canggu.
