Updated September 2025

Culture, beauty, beaches, temples, rice fields, volcanoes, surf, snorkelling, amazing vegan food and more; Bali is one of those places that really does have something for everyone. Find your scene (there are many going on here) and fall in love, we hope our Vegan Guide to Bali helps you on your way to find the best vegan food on this vegan friendly and enchanting Indonesian island.

Festivals in Bali

Visiting Bali during a festival gives a great insight into the culture of this unique part of Indonesia where the population is mainly Hindu. We’ve been lucky enough to experience many festivals in Bali from intriguing funeral processions to Balinese new year, which is followed by Nyepi or silent day. Colourful and noisy processions of ogoh ogoh followed by a day of quiet reflection (and no use of electrical equipment, no cooking, no music). Watch as women balance huge boxes of offerings on their head, marvel at the decorations made from bamboo (said to be finest in artistic Ubud) but be aware that some places may be closed for the holidays.

Vegan Restaurants in Bali

Mai3 Cafegan Vegetarian Cafe

Mai3 Cafegan Vegetarian Cafe
6X Jalan Raya Tuban 1
Tuban
Bali 80361
Indonesia

Opening Hours: 9am-9pm every day, closed Sunday

This is an excellent option for anyone passing through the international airport as it’s just 5 minutes away. Fully vegan local Buddhist style restaurant where everything is vegan with onions and garlic too. We ordered kung pao tempeh and mushroom satay from the extensive menu and were very pleased with our choices> we enjoyed the food so much we headed back the next day for food before our flight and enjoyed a vegan chicken katsu dish that was also delicious.

Divine Earth

Divine Earth
Jalan Raya Basangkasa
Seminyak

Opening Times: 7am-11pm every day

These guys have got it going on in Bali with multiple outlets across the island. Our visit to Divine Earth in Seminyak was very pleasant indeed and we enjoyed the relaxed and chilled vibe. Our vegan seitan hot dog was very good (although the bread was a little sweet for us) and the raw tempe chips with hummus and dips offered a perfect accompaniment. It’s not the cheapest option for sure but the food and ingredients seem to be of a very high quality, well worth checking out…

Sauce Tree Cafe

Sauce Tree Cafe
Jalan Danau Tamblingan 42
Sanur
Bali 80228
Indonesia

Opening Hours: 11am-9pm every day

This all vegan eatery in Sanur has the most delicious vegan cakes and we visited every day when we stayed in Sanur. They also serve savoury options too including some tasty sounding burgers, but for us it was all about the vegan cakes which we loved. Make sure to visit and eat their cakes next time you’re in Sanur!

Seminyak
Bali

Opening Times: 9am-9pm every day

Set within a walled garden just off the main road, Tasty Vegan Seminyak is as you would guess from the name, an all vegan restaurant. The well designed menu is somewhat limited but we were more than happy with our mock meat satay and mixed vegetable, tempe and tofu dish. Service was friendly and efficient making this a decent option if you’re in Seminyak and want to enjoy vegan versions of traditional Indonesian dishes.

Zula Vegetarian Paradise

Zula Vegetarian Paradise
Jalan Dhyana Pura 5
Seminyak

Opening Times: 7am-11pm every day

We’ve eaten here before and liked the varied vegetarian menu which has a number of vegan options. This visit was for dessert only and we shared a raw chocolate mousse pudding which was just OK. From memory, the savoury food was great and we would certainly return although this time our selection was not that inspiring.

Cacao Flow

Cacao Flow
Jalan Pantai Balangan
Jimbaran
Bali

Opening Times: 9am-6pm every day

We loved Cacao Flow! This is a very good new option in Southern Bali and should be on your list if you’re in the area for sure. They have a limited menu of all raw dishes, and upon chatting with the staff we ordered the pizza and the wrap, both were amazing and! The wrap was ‘double wrapped’ with a raw zucchini layer and a raw papaya layer, it was packed with crunchy coleslaw, raw meatballs and a cashew mayo; there was a coconut syrup drizzle and a nut Parmesan crumble OMG it was amazing!!! The raw pizza was also very good, both dishes looked great, tasted even better and were very filling indeed. We still found room for raw chocolate mousse though which was divine.

Moksa

Moksa
Puskesmas Ubud II
Sayan
Ubud
Bali

Opening Times: 10am-9pm every day

Moksa is a “Plant Based Cuisine & Permaculture Garden” situated on the outskirts of town providing the perfect escape from the fast growing and super busy Ubud. The location and tranquil setting is a great place to enjoy the incredible food that is created at Moksa. Beautifully presented and thoughtfully created vegan food that is packed full of flavour is the order of the day means we would highly recommend Moksa to anyone who is in the area.

Vegetarian Restaurants in Bali

Sattvik by Nature

Sattvik by Nature
Jalan Kartika Plaza No 3
Kuta
Bali 80361
Indonesia

Opening Hours: 8am-11pm every day

Kuta is certainly not somewhere we would choose to stay as it’s way too busy (that’s being polite) but it’s close to our ‘regular’ airport hotel (Hilton Garden Inn ) where we often stay if we’ve got an early departure flight. The main road in Kuta has many Indian restaurants and some of these are ‘pure veg’ which is always a good start. We chose Sattvik by Nature and were happy with the service and the food. The staff were friendly and helpful, understanding exactly what vegan means and advising which dishes we could and couldn’t order. We enjoyed channa masala, aloo gobi, tandoori roti and basmati rice. They were very good and the portions were generous, despite there being many other veg Indian options we would head back here again as it was more than decent.

Mandala Village

Opening Times: 8am-3pm every day

Don’t be misled by the name. Yes, this place does (awesome) smoothies but also has an extensive menu of veggie and vegan food. We visited for breakfast and ordered tofu scramble on whole grain toast and vegan buckwheat pancakes served with fruit and whipped coconut cream! Very, very good indeed but make sure you order the vegan buckwheat pancakes with NO honey as they are normally served with honey…

Gopal’s Cafe

Gopal’s Cafe
Jalan Danau Tamblingan 105
Sanur
Bali

Opening Times: 8am-9.30pm every day

Gopal’s Cafe is part of Maha Laksmi Boutique Hotel, located on the ground floor and serving all vegetarian food with many vegan options. The waiter fully understood the difference between veggie and vegan which was reassuring and he was very helpful in adapting our choices accordingly. The rijstaffel was delicious and is kind of like a nasi campur which is rice with a selection of other dishes. The paneer sate was swapped for tofu and our plate included tempe, vegetables and crackers with a spicy sambal. We also ordered a burrito which was delicious and packed with beans, salad and avocado, drizzled with a coconut milk mayo. Both dishes were very filling and very good, we are so happy that we found this place…

Cool little veggie food spot with vegan options including wraps, falafels and juices. The menu has traditional Indonesian food and also Western style food too. Check out the selection of salads, also the vegan pancakes and vegan waffles…

Ghiridari Vegan & Vegetarian

Ghiridari Vegan & Vegetarian
Jalan Raya Uluwatu Simpangan 7
Jimbaran
Bali

Opening Times: 8am-8pm every day

We stopped here for a couple of snacks as had already enjoyed lunch elsewhere. We are so glad we did and would go back for sure as not only was the food tasty but the owner was very friendly. She is vegetarian as are her staff and this all veggie local warung has so many options for local Balinese food, she fully understands the difference between veggie and vegan so you will have no problem ordering when here. They offer cooking classes for 300k which we would have joined if we had time as they focus on how to make your own mock meat from flour! This is a great opportunity to up your mock meat game and one we wished we’d had the chance to experience.

Kabunku Coffee and Eatery

Jalan Pantai Nyanyi
Tabanan
Bali 80351

Opening Hours: 8.30am-9pm every day

What a great find this was! Staying close by for an event at Nuanu Creative City we went on one of our Vegan Food Quests trying to find lunch and stumbled upon this family ran eatery in a relaxed setting. The wooden buildings overlooking the garden were the perfect place to chill with an iced oat milk latte whilst checking out the menu. There were vegan options but we went ‘off menu’ and enjoyed the most delicious lunch that was created by combining a couple of existing dishes. The jackfruit rendang is vegan but served in a croissant that is not vegan, so added the rendang to the mushroom avocado toast which was served with no avocado as they were sold out for the day. It might sound confusing but what we ended up with was seriously one of the best lunches we’ve enjoyed for a very long time. The jackfruit rendang was outstanding and piled high on toasted sour dough with the mushrooms. There were also pumpkin seeds and kidney beans for that extra protein hit and tomatoes and rocket for some freshness. Ask for Si or one of the other friendly team members and ask them for this special vegan combo next time you’re there and we can guarantee you won’t be disappointed!

Opening Times: 9am-10pm closed Monday

Check out this compact little taco bar just off the main strip in Kuta called Johnny Tacos. They whip up some the meanest vegan tacos we’ve eaten in Southeast Asia. Packed full of vegetables, flavour and heaps of sliced avocado and guacamole, means these bad boys are not to be missed.

Opening Hours: 7am-10pm every day

With an excellent location right on the beach at Sanur, this vegan friendly restaurant has a clearly labelled menu that is perfect for vegans, veggies and those avoiding nuts, dairy or gluten. The French Fries were ridiculously good and we loved the trio of dips and the nachos too. There were plenty of bowls to choose from and also burgers, wraps and fajitas. Excellent option especially if your dining with omnivores as there is something for everyone.

Opening Hours: 7am-5pm every day

Did somebody say vegan pies? Well, once we were told that Bread Basket Bakery in Sanur had vegan pies we just had to visit. Twice. The pies were delicious as were our oat milk lattes too. With other veggie and vegan options available including tempeh and falafel wraps, they have a number of locations in Bali and their vegan pies are worth making the trip for.

Opening Hours: 7am-10pm every day

Just go here. You will not regret it. This was the best vegan food we ate in Sanur from the vegan cakes to the salads and from the delicious tempeh and tofu dishes to the drinks everything was just perfect. Located right on the beachfront promenade you can enjoy the most beautiful vegan food with those dreamy ocean views that Bali is known for. Highly recommended.

Opening Hours: 11am-11pm every day

We enjoyed ‘pizza no cheese’ and a bowl of creamy pasta at this upscale eatery at Hyatt Regency. Of course the price was a little higher than other stand alone restaurants but the quality of the food and the service were both first rate. The menu had clearly labelled vegan, vegetarian and gluten free options marked which is good to see and this was the perfect place to spend our last night with friends in Sanur.

Ngiring Ngewedang

Opening Times: 9am-6pm every day

En route to North Bali you may well pass through Munduk, if you do then be sure to check out Ngiring Ngewedang who not only boast awesome views but offer some great options for the hungry vegan traveller! The perfect place to stop after sitting in a taxi for 2 hours is Ngiring Ngewedang. You can enjoy the far reaching and stunning views whilst waiting for your lunch; ours consisted of a tempe and tofu packed vegan curry and also a de constutced gado gado salad that was delicious.

Amed and Jemeluk

Amed and Jemeluk offer some of the best snorkelling from the beach we’ve ever experienced during our travels in Southeast Asia. You can also enjoy awesome views of the sunrise across the bay with Mount Agung in the distance. Since we were last in Amed there are now 2 all vegetarian restaurants which are both listed on Happy Cow. When we visited we had to find restaurants and warungs that understood our request for vegan food but rest assured we did not go hungry and we loved Amed and also nearby Jemeluk Bay. We had a very good meal at Sails Restaurant and also picked up some snacks at a small health food store whilst en route. Next time we are in Bali we plan to return for sure, in the meantime here are the details for the 2 veggie restaurants for you to check out. For those of you looking for a change from tempe and sambal then maybe this all vegetarian Indian restaurant might be for you? Nad Brahma is open during high season only until 10.30pm but closed on Monday. Also listed on Happy Cow is Aiona which is also on the main beach road and may be worth a visit. Please let us know if you have any updated info for Amed and Jemeluk?

Vegan Friendly Shops in Bali

Club Sehat Bali

Club Sehat Bali
Jalan By Pass Ngurah Rai 234
Sanur
Bali

Opening Times: 9am-7pm (closes at 3pm Friday and closed all day Saturday)

We stopped at this health food shop when passing through Sanur as always food to know what’s available. There were a wide range of ingredients for cooking, dried products and also a selection of essential oils which were well priced. There was no fresh food to eat (shame) but there were juices and kombuchas. Club Sehat Bali would be great if you’re based in the area with access to a kitchen.

Bali Buda

Jalan Raya Uluwatu
Bali

Opening Times: 7am-9pm every day

This small shop and cafe also has delivery options which could be good if you’re staying nearby. Whilst not as big as their store in Ubud it has a varied range of products for sale. We particularly liked the dried nuts and nutritional yeast by the weight and that you could refill your water bottles for 5000IDR.

Vegan Friendly Luxury Hotels and Resorts in Bali

Check out these ‘tried and tested’ vegan friendly luxury hotels and resorts in Bali that one of our team has stayed at. Each of them understood our request for plant based food and ensured that our experience as vegan guests was very enjoyable. We would always recommend contacting your hotel or resort in advance to advise them of your dietary choice, and then to follow this up upon check in by asking to speak with either the restaurant manager or member of the F&B team.

    Bali is heaven for vegan travellers! We had soooo much great food, especially in Canggu. Feel like we have to go back to Bali again just to try all the yummy places in this guide 😀
