The Best 20 Breakfast Spots In Bali
FINNS Beach Club, Canggu
OK, it’s more of a brunch spot than a breakfast one, but the delicious menu at FINNS is the ideal way to prepare yourself for a wonderful day of sunning on the beach, swimming and surfing before partying the night away.
In fact, you can enjoy brunch, lunch and dinner at FINNS without ever having to move very far at all.
And if you’re around in the early evening still, you can enjoy gorgeous views of the Indian Ocean as the sun goes down too.

Revolver Espresso, Seminyak
This Melbourne-inspired cafe chain is all about good coffee. It started out in someone’s bedroom and has now expanded to three different locations.
We prefer the OG location in Seminyak, but with coffee this good, we can’t complain about the other locations, either.
Their breakfast menu is excellent, too, and you may find that breakfast here seems to go on much longer than you’d intended, as once you settle in, it’s hard to find the drive to leave!

Nude, Canggu
Nude is a great place to go for breakfast, and it has become a firm favourite with the digital nomad set that goes for the free Wi-Fi and power outlets.
There’s a lovely outdoor section and a very pleasant air-conditioned indoor section if you want to get away from the heat.
Prices are super reasonable, and they make a mean cappuccino.

Milk And Madu, Berawa
With an all-day menu for brunch and breakfast, you really can’t go wrong with Milk and Madu.
There’s a lovely outdoor space for dining in, and if you have kids, you’ll love that they have a playground and onsite child care, too.
The only downside to this place is that it’s very popular, and if you get there at busy times, you may need to queue for a table.

Avocado Factory, Canggu
The Avocado Factory bills itself as Bali’s first Avocado bar, and it’s certainly one of the best places to be if you love some avocado with your breakfast toast.
We are big fans of the omelettes here, but we’ve never had anything we didn’t like from their extensive breakfast menu. They do excellent healthy dishes such as smoothie bowls and fruit bowls too.
There’s something very relaxed and informal about the dining space, and that’s exactly how we like our breakfast venues to be.

Ivy Cafe, Ubud
If you’re searching for fresh smoothies and a tasty food menu before you visit the Monkey Forest in Ubud, then Ivy Cafe should be your first stop.
It’s very stylish inside and has an upscale vibe, but the prices are very reasonable, and the food is very tasty.
We’d also note that the service is exemplary and makes you feel special as you try to decide which of the lovely Indonesian dishes to try next.

Their salmon eggs benedict is absolutely wonderful, as is their Nasi Goreng; you really can’t go wrong here.

Their buffet breakfast is amazing, with a near-endless selection of tasty treats from around Bali and the world to enjoy.

Blou Cafe, Canggu
They have an all-day menu for breakfast at Blou Cafe at the Dijiwa Resort in Canggu.
It’s still something of a hidden gem, and if you want a refined breakfast somewhere away from the throngs of tourists, Blou should nicely fit the bill.
One thing that might surprise you is how cheap it is, considering that it’s in a swanky resort.

Livingstone Cafe & Bakery, Kerobokan Kelod
This is one of the longest-established expat/tourist breakfast places in Bali, and it’s still one of the best.
You don’t need to spend a fortune to enjoy their big breakfast or something a little simpler like the brioche french toast.
It’s exceptionally well-designed inside, too, and it will look amazing in your Instagram feed.

Gooseberry, Pecatu
Goosebury is more of a brunch than a breakfast spot. Given that it’s quite an upscale place, you’ll probably want to spend time getting ready before you go.
The souffle pancakes are incredible, though, and worth dressing up for.

You can enjoy food at Sawah Terrace without staying in the resort, but do book in advance.
