Living in Canggu, we eat out all the time. That’s not because we’re lazy in the kitchen but because the food is just super affordable. Even the best restaurants in Canggu are cheap compared to your average bistro or cafe in Europe, so why not enjoy them to the max?

In this post, we’re going to talk about where to eat in Canggu for anybody who’s planning to stay in Canggu. Rather than just focus on Indonesian cuisine, we’ve picked our absolute favs across a variety of international cuisines, from Italian and French to Asian fusion.

We’d like to say we’ve been to every single restaurant here, but the reality is there are hundreds of places, with a new one popping up almost daily! This list is just our personal edit of eateries we’ve been to at least twice that have impressed us with their cuisine, their vibe, and their service.

Let’s tuck in!
