Wellness and vegan cafes in Bali aren’t just about the food — they’re where the island’s entire slow-living philosophy shows up on a plate.
Why Bali’s Cafe Culture Is Different
Wellness and vegan cafes in Bali didn’t emerge by accident — they grew directly out of the island’s decade-long wellness-tourism boom, built by and for the yoga retreats, digital nomads, and health-conscious travelers who’ve made Ubud and Canggu their long-term bases. The result is a genuinely excellent, plant-forward cafe scene that rivals anything found in Bali’s original party-and-beach reputation.
A quick note before the list: not every cafe below is 100% vegan. Some, like Alchemy, Sayuri Healing Food and The Sloth Bali, are fully plant-based kitchens. Others serve a broader menu but do vegan and wellness food exceptionally well, with clearly marked plant-based options throughout. Both types are included here, and each entry notes which is which.
These aren’t just places to eat — most double as slow, unhurried weekend spots where a smoothie bowl turns into a two-hour stay, laptop open, ocean or rice-field view in front of you.
Best Wellness Cafes in Ubud
Ubud remains the undisputed heart of Bali’s wellness cafe scene, with dozens of spots built around clean eating, mindful mornings, and views of rice terraces or jungle.
Alchemy Bali — 100% Vegan Address: Ubud (original location; also Uluwatu and Canggu) Home to one of the most impressive raw vegan buffets in Asia, alongside an à la carte menu and an on-site yoga studio. A genuine Ubud institution for the raw-food crowd.
Seeds of Life Café — 100% Vegan (Raw) Address: Ubud Known for its raw lasagna, cashew-based cheeses, and raw chocolate cake — a favourite among dedicated raw and living-food devotees.
Sayuri Healing Food — 100% Vegan Address: Ubud A wholesome, fully vegan café serving food entirely free of dairy, soy, gluten, and anything processed — one of the cleanest menus on the island.
Sage — Vegan-Focused Menu Address: Just south of the Monkey Forest, Ubud A laid-back, open-air boho spot known for plant-based comfort food — Penang curry, jackfruit tacos, tempeh mushroom rendang — alongside a well-regarded coffee and dessert menu.
The Sloth Bali — 100% Vegan Address: Ubud (also a Canggu location) An all-vegan menu spanning Indonesian and Western dishes, plus on-site accommodation and fully vegan breakfasts.
Most cafes here are attached to or near yoga studios, making a post-practice breakfast an easy, natural stop.

Best Wellness Cafes in Canggu
Canggu blends its surf-town energy with an equally strong wellness cafe culture, drawing a younger, more social crowd than Ubud’s quieter retreat vibe.
The Shady Shack — Vegan-Focused Menu Address: Canggu Big, filling plant-based plates that feel like a proper meal rather than a light bite — a Canggu favourite for weekend brunch.
I Am Vegan Babe — 100% Vegan Address: Canggu A well-known, fully vegan spot in the mid-range price bracket, popular for its extensive plant-based menu.
The Cure Health Kitchen — 100% Vegan Address: Berawa, Canggu A fully plant-based kitchen using zero processed foods, seed oils, or MSG — a genuinely clean-eating option even by Canggu’s high standards.
KYND Community — 100% Vegan Address: Jl. Pantai Berawa area, Canggu (also Seminyak and Uluwatu) A trendy, pink-themed vegan café known for its extensive menu — everything from smoothie bowls to vegan butter chicken curry — plus an on-site concept store and plant-based cooking school.
Cinta Cafe — Vegan-Friendly Address: Berawa, Canggu Known for its cool, chilled-out vibe and relaxed playlist — a laid-back alternative to Canggu’s more polished spots.
Cafes here tend to double as coworking spaces during the week and buzzing weekend brunch spots, often within walking distance of the beach.
Best Wellness Cafes in Seminyak
Seminyak’s wellness cafes trend slightly more polished and boutique, often paired with concept stores or design-forward interiors.
KYND Community (Seminyak) — 100% Vegan Address: Jl. Kayu Aya No.48, Seminyak The original, most Instagrammed KYND location — colourful interiors, an extensive vegan menu, and famously photogenic smoothie bowls.
Nourish Cafe — 100% Vegan Address: Seminyak A well-regarded vegan spot rounding out Seminyak’s plant-based scene, popular for its clean, approachable menu.
Cabina Bali — Vegan & Wellness Options Available Address: Canggu side of Seminyak A Palm Springs-meets-Indonesia design concept with a huge menu spanning smoothie bowls and freakshakes to vegan, gluten-free and paleo options — as much a design destination as a café.
This is where Bali’s wellness cafe scene meets its more upscale, fashion-conscious side — still health-focused, but with a more curated, photogenic aesthetic throughout.

What to Actually Order
- Smoothie bowls — acai, dragon fruit, or mixed berry bases topped with granola, fresh fruit and seeds, a near-universal menu staple
- Buddha bowls — grain-based bowls with roasted vegetables, tempeh or tofu, and a tahini or peanut dressing
- Cold-pressed juices — turmeric-ginger shots and green juices are the most common wellness-cafe staples
- Banana pancakes and overnight oats — a lighter, still health-conscious option for a slower breakfast
- Nasi campur (healthy version) — several cafes now offer a lighter, vegetable-forward take on this Indonesian classic, bridging local flavour with the wellness-cafe format
Weekend Brunch Culture in Bali
Weekend mornings at Bali’s wellness cafes have become a genuine social ritual, particularly in Canggu and Seminyak — expect longer waits, livelier atmospheres, and often live acoustic music or DJ sets layered into the daytime setting by early afternoon. Booking ahead for weekend brunch at the more popular spots is increasingly worth doing, especially during peak season.
