We rate Luigis the best Pizza in Canggu easily... they not only do a fantastic pizza they also do wicked drinks & salads. This Canggu’s latest hotspot offers a no-fuss chill out joint that you couldn’t help but love & although they offer just pizza & salads on the menu they have got both of them spot on! But the real reason why you would fall in love with their pizza is how they are made by the original pizzaiolo; the pizza dough is naturally risen for 24 hours and they use custom-made pizza oven, direct from Naples, ensures quality Neapolitan style pizzas. Not only do they make the drinks & pizzas with love Luigis pizza have the most incredibly friendly staff!

This cute little spot is just up the street from Villa Stella. Coffee/ Breakfast/ Brunch/ Cocktails/ Craft Beer & Desserts all made with love inhouse! // 4PM-6PM EVERYDAY // TWO FOR ONE DRINKS This might be my favorite of the bunch. They’re new, and working hard to impress the local crowd. No Bintang bros here, it’s just a select list of super delicious foodie items craft cocktails already priced below the neighborhood average. I HIGHLY recommend the Watermelon Gin Fizz or the Long Island Iced Tea. Unlike most of the spots in Canggu, they pour with a heavy hand – the kind that makes my heart soar, and my liver scream. It’s the best.

Beautiful Brunch: Betelnut This has to be one of the most popular spots in Canggu – we are averaging about three Baja Burritos a week these days [the obsession is real!] . The food is healthy, colourful and fresh, which is not surprising as it’s the Shady Shack’s older sister. The space has a treehouse-kinda-vibe which overlooks the green rice paddies, perfect for a cosy dinner date or getting the gang together for brunch. Betelnut, Jalan Pantai Batu Bolong No.60, Canggu,

Splurge & Go! Located in the Tugu Hotel is this delicious Japanese restaurant. Head to the upstairs lounge where you will find awesome views of the Indian ocean.

Entertainment & Activities

Into skateboarding? Try Pretty Poison or Deus. There are two popular places for the surf and skating crowd in Canggu, Pretty Poison and Deus ex Machina. Pretty Poison is a bar (or a skate bar) that opens every day at 4 pm. Sometimes they have a live band and it’s a great place to hang out with locals (sorry, locals here means foreigners that stay long term in Canggu, but you can find some real locals here too). An alternative to Pretty Poison is Deus ex Machina. Deus is kind of like a shopping complex. Deus ex Machina has a surf and clothes store, art space, restaurant, custom bike shop and barber shop! It is one of our easy favorite places in Canggu.
