This seems to be the theme at Sea Circus with its surprising juxtaposition of characteristics. From its name, to the décor (even in the bathrooms!) Sea Circus is a really interesting café to wander into on any afternoon.

And despite its whimsical name, it’s not actually a circus on the sea, but a restaurant/cocktail bar/coffee den.

What you can expect to find here? “Proper coffee, epic breakfast, kicking cocktails, yummy tapas, stylish décor, mega playlists, pumping parties.” There’s even a great wine list for the wine lovers!

There’s even a ‘market corner’ where you may pick up the cutest, dreamiest prints to decorate your home with. (Personally, I’m definitely going to pick up the “I’m off to join the circus” print the next time I’m there! ♥.♥)


There’s much in store for you at Sea Circus, and if you think photos taken at the Sea Circus in the day are instagram-worthy – wait till it’s dark out and the place gets really magical.


27. Of nature and vintage: La Favela
This little hidden gem is not easy to find, but it’s definitely worth the effort.

Snuggled between a surf shop and a restaurant, its presence is only announced on a simple neon signage. The place resembles an abandoned colonial building at the edge of a Brazilian rainforest, with antique typewriters, old bikes, and even a vintage volkswagen strewn across the dark wood interiors. Plants also appear to be growing everywhere as mother nature takes over.

“La Favela is the ghetto – it means “community”, so here you can find different ambience, different concepts between all the people. But everything is made with love,” says the owner Luigi Ferrara (the same guy who owns La Plancha, which is also a rooftop bar, together with his brother Gonzalo).
The place transforms into a dance club with live music from 11pm onwards!



28. Take a ride on the quaint old-school carriage – Betelnut Cafe
Located in Canggu, Betelnut Café is well known for their really tasty menus that are not only delicious, but are healthy and good for the body as well.

While Betelnut Café isn’t as polished as the usually sophisticated cafes around, the lush rice paddy and homey double-story thatch bungalow make a great backdrop for that perfect addition to your Insta-gallery.

Apart from the famously tasty food, make sure to take photos at the super quaint area just before you head up the stairs to the breezy mezzanine. Sit on the old school carriage and snap a shot, before heading up to get a good view of the grounds below.

Next, the famous Naga Bowl breakfast is an absolute hit with everyone who’s in the know – and if you’re into healthy eating, you definitely won’t want to miss this. It’s filled with nothing but the best! Banana, dragonfruit, yoghurt puree, and sprinkled with cashews, shredded coconut, granola and other fruits.

If not, you might just want to go for the Big Betelnut salad. Why big? It consists of 4 of Betelnut Café’s signature salads all in 1! There are also wraps, tex-mex tacos and burritos to choose from if you’re looking for something heavier.
Finally, wash it all down with a healthy juice – or a cider if you’re feeling it!
29. That sweet little vintage place: Cafe Bali
You may not be impressed by the name; neither is it likely that you may be intrigued enough to look past the small palm trees lining the facade.
But we’ll tell you this – it’s difficult not to go ‘wow’ once you’ve set foot in this unassuming little place.

The cafe manages to be cute without being sickeningly sweet.

Think whitewashed wood, an eclectic collection of mismatched furniture, and probably the most creative light fixtures on the island.

30. Secret cafe: Sisterfields
This bright and airy new kid on the block is definitely worth a mention as one of the coolest places to hangout while you’re in Bali.

Serving yummy smoothies, fresh salads, great coffee and intriguing charcoal buns, Sisterfields is one of Bali’s best kept secrets (up till now, probably). Try the polenta fries – it’s very popular!

Website 31. That whimsical cafe-bar: La Plancha
This Legian Beach cafe, which doubles up as a rooftop bar, has been around for years, yet it never gets old.

And it genuinely lives up to its name – the traditional Spanish way of cooking that’s simple, fresh, and unpretentious (La Plancha literally means “the grill”).
Don’t bother looking for this signage though – it’s too small to be spotted easily.

Just follow the fragrant whiff of barbecued Spanish delights and the sound of clinking beer bottles, and you’ll find your way to this colourful beach shack.

But of course, the most coveted seats are right on the beach.
Lounge on the colourful beanbags with the wind in your hair, the sand between your toes and an ice cold Bintang in your hand.
You just need the perfect Bali sunset, and your Bali holiday is complete. Don’t miss the Sunset Parties on Wednesdays with free entry, live music and drinks!

La Plancha

Website 32. Swoony décor for your inner Euro: Balique in Jimbaran
Balique is almost too hip to be real.

Housed in a large open-sided joglo, its neighbours are motorbike repair and helmet stores.

Enter and be completely astounded by its vintage style – European-style armchairs, antique cashier machine and candy jars, hanging glass lamps.

Every inch of Balique is ornate, thoughtful and beautiful, you might even suspect it’s a plot to distract you from (bad) food.
But that’s not true.
The menu is as eclectic as the décor, featuring tastes from Morocco, France and around Asia.
And now that you’ve admired the furniture, it’s time to feast your eyes on the Moroccan chicken kebabs and rare tuna salad!
