Where are the best scenic restaurants and popular cafes in Bali for a special dinner, sunset view, or late brunch?

Additional scenic dinner options in Ubud include the Terrace Bar at Amandari, the Sunset Bar at Bambu Indah Resort, and Taman Dedari. The Sayan House is mentioned too, but it is already covered.

For scenic dining in Ubud, recommendations include The Sayan House, CHUPACABRAS, and Sawah Terrace. In Uluwatu, suggested spots are Mana, Abracadabra, LOLITAS Cantina Mexicana, Teja, and Akasa (currently the sunset-facing side).

For dinner in Jimbaran beyond the seafood market, recommendations include Kayumanis (Indonesian cuisine), Cuca (Asian fusion with tapas bar), and Sundara at the Four Seasons — very atmospheric with a great view. Also advised to pick your own seafood at the market and have it cooked to order, to avoid reheated or not-fresh dishes.

In the Nusa Dua area (near Merusaka hotel, about a 5-minute walk), the restaurant W-Gourmet is recommended — it offers delivery directly from the hotel.

Near Amed, travelers recommend cafes with great views including sunset, and fish dishes on the menu: Joli Best View Cafe and Sunset Point Amed Bali. Baliku Dive Resort also works for dinner but is a bit farther from central Amed.

For a classic Bali brunch-and-coffee stop, travelers highlight Vida, BGS, Revolver, and Rise & Shine. These are well-known south-west Bali favorites, mainly chosen for atmosphere and reliable brunch menus.

In Berawa and Canggu, commonly mentioned cafe picks include Watercress Berawa, Two Moods, Shady Shak, and The Avocado Factory. They work well for a stylish breakfast or a relaxed meal in a photogenic setting.

For something more cozy and easygoing, travelers recommend Milk & Madu, Ruko Cafe, Cook & Baker, and Alfajores. These are seen as comfortable all-day cafes with a strong reputation and pleasant presentation.

For a late breakfast with a sea view, travelers suggest Finns and La Brisa, plus the beachside cafes to the right of Old Man’s. The scenery is considered excellent there, though people note the food is only average and prices are inflated for the beachfront setting.

Among cliffside venues, Karma Kandara on the Bukit peninsula gets a particularly strong recommendation. People like it not just for the restaurant above the cliff, but also for the funicular down to the ocean, so you can combine private beach time with a sunset dinner.

Malini is already on many travelers’ shortlist as a well-known cliffside dinner spot in south Bali, especially for a memorable last evening. It is typically considered alongside Nusa Dua–Uluwatu area venues for a sunset meal with a dramatic view.
