Bali is undoubtedly one of Southeast Asia’s reigning kings (the name “Island of The Gods” doesn’t come from just nowhere) when it comes to the best vegan restaurants.
Exuding wellness from its very core, Indonesia’s most popular island truly excels when it comes to organic and plant-powered dishes.
Ubud, with its jungle surroundings, endless rice fields and spiritual energy is Bali’s hotspot for plant-based goodness.
But Canggu and Seminyak, known for their sandy beaches, surfer vibes and curated collection of bars, aren’t trailing too far behind.
It doesn’t matter which of Bali’s neighbourhoods you find yourself exploring or staying in. Or whether you’re looking for a vegan-friendly post-workout snack, a fully fledged evening meal or something stronger with a signature cocktail, you’ll find it somewhere on the island.

Tanaman at Potato Head, Seminyak
Tanaman at Potato Head is more of a concept than just a restaurant. Situated inside one of Bali’s coolest beach clubs, Tanaman at Potato Head is filled with classy neon lights and a perpetually cool atmosphere. It’s vegan food, but heightened in every sense. Come here with your non-vegan friends and act nonchalant while they gaze at the menu and secretly consider joining the plant-powered crew. Tanaman at Potato Head is the coolest cruelty free club on the island.
Food here is a fusion of Indonesian and western, combining some of Bali’s most-loved ingredients with European touches to create a tasting menu that celebrates Indonesia as a whole.

Alchemy, Ubud
Alchemy’s menu is the definition of clever: although technically it’s entirely raw and vegan, this restaurant uses interesting methods to change the structure and definition of its ingredients without using too much heat to take away its raw status. As you might expect from this, Alchemy is laidback and chilled, a spot where you’ll be welcomed with a large group of friends just as much as you will be when you turn up with a book by yourself.
The menu here is perfect for picky eaters and less so those who are indecisive: everything is tailored, editable and DIY, from soup bowls to salads, smoothies and the breakfast bar. Alchemy is a brilliant spot any time of day, from breakfast to dinner. But if there’s one thing you don’t want to skip here, it’s dessert. Alchemy’s raw vegan desserts are locally famous and top of the game.

Merah Putih, Seminyak
Bamboo lobster dumplings, zucchini flowers, smoked goat’s belly and red emperor crudo: Merah Putih is one of Bali’s best organic restaurants and has a mouthwatering menu to match. Brilliant taste and spectacular presentation sit hand in hand here, in a gorgeous setting that you’ll order a post-dinner drink at just to spend some more time admiring. Merah Putih’s menu changes seasonally, which means that, other than knowing what you’re about to feast upon is Indonesian-inspired, there’s little to go by in the way of specifics.
But that’s only ever a good thing: dishes here are made with care and attention and it’s virtually impossible to eat something you don’t enjoy at this spot. Beautiful decor and high ceilings make this large spot seem even larger, but a warm atmosphere more than counteracts the huge space of Merah Putih.

Locavore is a firm favourite for Bali’s Ubudians, and the plant-based menu here really does have something to suit everyone.
Vegetables are twisted, turned, burnt and sizzled into almost entirely new ingredients, proving that meat isn’t necessary for those looking for a delicious way to end the day. An amazing dining experience for anyone visiting Bali, Locavore’s 16 course tasting menu is a brilliant opportunity to sample a little of everything this spot does well. Made up almost entirely of local ingredients, you know for sure that your food here is just as sustainable as it is delicious.

This is a restaurant that you’ll go to in order to impress your companion: dishes cooked meticulously using premium quality ingredients.

Seasalt at Alila Seminyak
Seasalt at Alila is the definition of a holiday in the sunshine.

Seeds of Life, Ubud
Seeds of Life somehow does the impossible: crafting all types of dishes, cuisines and ideas into a menu that’s entirely raw, vegan and gluten free. Perfect for those on a health kick or anyone who fancies a meal made entirely of good things, Seeds of Life is a cute, cosy and wholesome spot in the Ubud jungle.
Just because it’s a raw vegan cafe doesn’t mean the dishes are restricted to leaves: Seeds of Life is just as inventive as it is innovative: vibrant and colourful dishes stand their ground on the 14-page menu, including the likes of pizzas, veggie bowls, spicy buffalo wings and burritos. It’s a place with a perpetually chilled atmosphere that’s great for catching up with friends or simply for bringing along your favourite book and settling down for a few hours.

Moksa, Ubud
The food at Moksa is delicious…but that won’t be what’s on your mind when you arrive at this gorgeous Ubud restaurant. Set in the heart of Sayan, the walk towards Moksa is punctuated by endless palm trees, verdant rice fields and beautiful flowers in every direction. The walk here is reason alone to visit Moksa, and that’s before you’ve been dazzled by the food.
A vegan restaurant that’ll impress all of your meat-eating friends, dishes here are presented artfully but with enough substance to keep you perfectly full by the time you’ve enjoyed your final mouthful. Earthly decor and a welcoming atmosphere draw you in to Moksa and a large menu inspired from countries across the globe will have you returning again quickly. One of the best parts? A beautiful permaculture garden sits right next door to this spot, and many of its fruits and vegetables are grown here.

Living Food Lab, Canggu
Canggu’s Living Food Lab is famous for its vegan sushi: taking away the notion that sushi must contain raw fish and instead replacing it with a delicious variety of plant-based equivalents that taste just as good as they make you feel. But Living Food Lab doesn’t only serve sushi: this vegan restaurant is home to a menu the size of a small book with juices, probiotic drinks and smoothies on the drink menu and appetisers, sandwiches, bowls, salads and sweets making up just a small part of the food menu.
It’s also a place with an especially wholesome goal: to spread the “aliveness” of humans, awareness of how we live and with the intention of making more conscious choices. Come here for not only a brilliant breakfast or lunch, but also a welcoming smile from the staff and a perfectly balanced atmosphere that’ll have you feeling refreshed and nourished when you leave.

Shady Shack, Canggu
The only thing shady about Canggu’s The Shady Shack is the beautiful palm leaves gently caressing its doors. The Shady Shack is one of Canggu’s most popular restaurants and is a firm favourite with vegans, vegetarians and carnivores alike. It’s virtually impossible to step inside this restaurant without feeling the friendly atmosphere all around you; something that’s heightened when you sit yourself down and familiarise yourself with the huge portions in front of you.
Dishes here are mostly healthy — but in a fun way. Salads are served across an entire spectrum of colours, with interesting combinations and additions you wouldn’t necessarily include yourself. Desserts dance between being healthy and indulgent: delicious mouthfuls that taste far more decadent than their short list of organic ingredients would suggest.

It’s also one of Bali’s most popular restaurants in general, with a large number of vegan pizzas and its very own creamery serving vegan ice cream offering something for everyone no matter the time or occasion.

Sakti Dining Room at Fivelements, Ubud
