Bali Vegan Food Guide

Bali vegan food guide

During the months October to Januari I was lucky enough to spend my days on the beautiful island Bali in Indonesia. I knew that there would be a lot of colourful vegan food, thanks to Instagram. But I was still in chock when I saw the food with my own eyes and tasted it! The vegan food on Bali is on another level, it is amazing and deserves a vegan food guide.

In this blogpost I’m going to write about the food places in Bali that were some of my favourites. Some is entirely vegan, some are vegetarian and some are omnivore restaurants but they all serve vegan food. I mostly spent my time in Canggu and Seminyak, therefore I'm only going to review places in these areas. Sadly one of my favourite cafes are closing down right now, the Spicy Coconut, therefore I will not review that one.

These food places are only a FEW that we loved because we did not bring the camera to all places. These reviews are not in chronological order because I cannot decide which I like the most! 

1. Matcha Café

This green café loves matcha! And so do I. The cafe is based in Berawa on the side of the road with views over the incredible rice field. The Matcha cafe is not entirely vegan but they do serve a lot of vegan food. The owner is super friendly and really love making connections with the cafe's customers. They recently upgraded their menu and the best part is that they incorporated more vegan food! @matchacafebali

2. Kynd Community

The Kynd Community cafe is located in Seminyak and you won’t miss it passing by all the people shooting against the famous pink wall. This really is a vegan paradise, not only because all of their food is vegan, they also work so hard on how their food is presented. When I’m talking about vegan paradise I mean fluffy vegan pancakes covered in oreos, smooth coconut ice cream, with a pink fluffy cloud on top, finished of with a pink sauce drizzled over. Sadly I did not get a picture on this dish but down below you see dishes that were as delicious! Did I mention that the cafe is entirely vegan? @kyndcommunity

Kynd's famous smoothie bowl with a new message every time, coffee smoothie, and avocado toasts with almond feta

This coffee smoothie was absolutely amazing! A mixture of coffee, frozen banana, dates, and cacao

3. Bali Bowls and Smoothies

This little gem is located in Berawa, not entierly vegan but they do serve a lot of vegan options. I love their seating area upstairs where you can look over endless typical Bali-rooftops and beautiful rice paddies. One downside was the size of the portions, me and babe are big eaters and did not get satisfied on only one dish. But that did not change the fact that it was delicious! @balibowlsandsmoothies

I love curries, this was a green curry and a yellow curry YUM

Another yummy smoothie, we took this after the curries because they did not fill us up

4. Peloton Supershop

The Peloton Supershop is an entirely plant based vegan restaurant. This restaurant is also located in Berawa in a quite busy place, but please do not skip this one! They serve amazing food, everything from nachos covered in vegan cheese to one of the best vegan burgers I have ever had. The people who work there are so nice and you always feel more than welcome. If you come here, try the Ms Jackson Tacos! @pelotonsupershop

This was from the lunch menu, lighter tacos (not ms Jackson tacos) and an Aloha salad with tempeh

YUM. This was one of the first days in Bali and I was still in chock over all amazing vegan food

5. La Baracca Bali

Do you love pizza? Then this is the place to be! The La Baracca is not entirely vegan but they do serve vegan pizzas with, lo and behold, homemade vegan cheese! They are super friendly and can make almost any pizza into a vegan pizza. This restaurant is very popular and has two locations, one in Canggu and one in Kerobokan. If you ever come to one of the La Baracca's locations I highly recommend you to try the BOMBA Pizza! @labaraccabali

The BOMBA pizza with homemade vegan cheese!

6. Coffee Cartel Bali

This cafe located in Seminyak opened up its doors in 2017 and is already kicking it! They serve a lot of vegan food but also non vegan food. This is also one of the most creative cafes that works a lot on how their food is presented. They have the same favourite color as me - pink! Need I say more? @coffeecartelbali

An amazing dish by Coffee Cartell, granola with popcorn, pink cashew cream, pink crisp, and almond milk to pour

As I said, I love pink.. this is a pink beetroot latte made with almond milk

7. The Shady Shack

The Shady shack is located in Canggu, next to La Barack actually. It is a super cosy (and busy) place to hang out on. They also have some pretty damn good vegan food! Unfortunately they are not entirely vegan, they are vegetarian but serve a lot of vegan food. I think they have one of the best smoothie bowls and if you come here, try the vegan cheese burger! @theshadyshack

I love digging into smoothie bowls, this one is very fruity ant not over sweet.. perfect
