We give you a list of the best cafes and restaurants. in the Canggu area where you can satisfy your cravings for good food.

A lot has changed in Bali over the last few years. One of the most noticeable changes being the displacement of the population, in terms of nightlife and vibrancy, from the area of Kuta/Legian to the Canggu area.
This former surf village is located on the southwest coast of Bali and is surrounded by terraced rice paddies. Canggu has always been known for its beaches such as Batu Bolong and Echo Beach, which are very popular among surfers and can become quite crowded at times. More recently, Canggu has undergone a real renaissance, with a major influx of restaurants, appealing cafes and upscale lodgings.
Our Pick of Bali’s Best Places to Eat in Canggu
So we’ve decided to write a food guide on some of the best places to eat in the Canggu area, particularly in Pererenan (a relaxed neighbourhood with plenty of Balinese houses, Hindu temples and private villas), Batu Bolong (an eclectic neighbourhood like no other in Bali, that has developed around the beach that shares its name), and Berawa (the most fashionable part of Canggu with its restaurants, cafes, shopping centres and beach clubs that draw people from all over the world).
So, let’s look at the fine print!

Or if you’re in the mood for something more substantial, we love their succulently grilled Levantine meat selection and melt-in-your-mouth braised lamb shank.
There are also plenty of vegetarian-friendly options on offer, such as their Green Shashuka and spinach and cauliflower spiced puree served with traditionally made Dukkah.

Flavours direct from Egypt, the sunny streets of Marrakesh, and Istanbul’s Grand Bazaar are here in this restaurant for you to experience the authentic oriental cuisine of the Middle East.
As the name of this restaurant suggests, the main menu item is the “falafel”, a deep-fried ball made from ground chickpeas, fava beans (or both) typically served in pita bread with salad, hummus and tahini sauce. These delicious vegan fritters can be eaten in many different ways: in salads (the “Falafel Salad” is served with fresh vegetables and herbs accompanied by tahini sauce), wrapped in pita bread, or in “mezze” (great main course usually accompanied by hummus, salads, or tabbouleh).
In short, a real pearl you should not to miss if you want to try the exquisite flavours of Middle Eastern cuisine!

This question is the motto of Via Emilia Bali and that only underlines the inseparable attachment to tradition, the love for the land and its products, and the value of the family in Italian culture.
This lovely restaurant serves 100% local organic produce but above all, everything is homemade. In addition you will find a wide range of cheeses (fresh mozzarella, grana padano which is a type of hard cheese similar to parmesan, the stretched-curd cheese called scamorza and many others), sourdough bread, and plates of cold cuts.
The main course is, obviously, pasta with various condiments and sauces (which are all strictly homemade): pasta filled with spinach and ricotta cheese (knows as “ravioli”), potato pasta (also called “gnocchi”), pasta rolls filled with spinach and ricotta cheese (the famous melting “cannelloni”), layers of fresh pasta accompanied by béchamel and Bolognese sauce (the timeless “lasagna”).
A meal is never complete without the dessert, therefore hold up your spoon and have a taste of heaven: profiteroles dipped in dark chocolate sauce, and if you prefer more delicate flavours, don’t miss the “panna cotta” topped with chocolate and red fruit coulis!
