If you’re in Bali and you’ve missed breakfast, not to worry, The Culture Trip has got you covered with a list of the 10 best brunch spots on the island. From beachside restaurants to large hotel buffets, it’s all compiled in the list below. Get ready and get feasting.
Brunching at La Lucciola is a treat – the good view and delicious food makes it the perfect place to relax. The restaurant, a large two-storey, open-air hut, is perched on the edge of the Seminyak Beach. Try sitting upstairs for a cooling breeze and ordering a fruit juice and an avocado frittata or a dessert platter. This is a popular spot among the Kuta crowd because of its ideal beach location. After treating yourself to a meal here, you can head over to one of their sun loungers to take in the gorgeous Balinese sights.
The Porch delights the tastebuds with its unique combinations of sweet and savory. Sit down to a large plate of classic breakfast filled with hash browns, bacon, mushrooms and egg, or for the health conscious, diners can relax with a plate of fruit and a freshly made fruit juice. This small cafe prides itself on using the freshest of ingredients and their dishes are all made in their open-air, outdoor kitchen. The decor is incredibly homely with a wooden patio and a lovely, cool indoor area to dine in.

For the hardcore coffee addicts who need the perfect brew to start their mornings, the Seniman Coffee Studio is the ideal venue. From artistic lattes to smooth espressos, there’s plenty of wonderful top-quality options to choose from. The owners use an Indonesian single-origin coffee blend but they go beyond that. They complement their coffee options with delicious, traditional Indonesian food. Dig into a sushi-roll gado-gado style or kick back with a blended juice or an ice-cold beer. Their breakfast is incredibly popular so expect to queue on arrival.

Watercress is an upscale village cafe serving an all-day rustic breakfast. Their delicious breakfast is bursting with color and flavor, which they claim was inspired by the island’s beauty. Here, diners can dig into some chunky avocado salsa, homemade chili jam, poached eggs and sour cream and grilled bacon. If you go for a particularly late brunch, treat yourself to their famous lunch showcase – a beautiful, colorful buffet filled with salads, quiches, lasagne, fish and more. Don’t forget to try a coffee from their expert barista team too.
The Warung is a stunning hotel restaurant that offers an extensive traditional Indonesian and Balinese menu for brunch. Indulge in the highly recommended papaya salads, a satay (grilled meat on sticks) with 12 different styles of sambal (sauces) or a delicious grilled mushroom in a banana leaf. Opt for a big group setting at a long communal bench or reserve in advance for a private table of two so you can enjoy an intimate brunch facing the sea.
