Bali : best breakfast spots Canggu
Canggu mornings have a rhythm of their own — surf checks at sunrise, scooters humming down shortcut lanes, and cafés filling with sun-faded linen, good coffee, and people lingering long past their plates are cleared. Breakfast here isn’t rushed; it’s ritual. From design-led spaces to barefoot beachfront tables, these are the spots shaping the way Canggu starts its day.
Copenhagen Café
Scandi minimalism meets tropical light at Copenhagen Café, where clean interiors, pale woods, and beautifully plated dishes set the tone. The menu leans wholesome but elevated — sourdough, seasonal greens, refined egg dishes, and pastries that look straight from a Nordic bakery. It’s the kind of place where breakfast turns into a slow mid-morning catch-up.

Café Kitsuné
Bringing Paris-meets-Tokyo polish to Bali, Café Kitsuné delivers a more fashion-conscious coffee stop. Expect immaculate branding, sharp coffee, and delicate pastries in a space that feels curated down to the last detail. It’s less about a heavy breakfast and more about a stylish start — espresso, people-watching, and a touch of international cool.

The Lawn
Right on Batu Bolong beach, The Lawn is made for mornings that roll into afternoons. Come early for coffee with the ocean directly in front of you, or settle in for a long brunch with tropical fruit, eggs, and fresh juices. The setting does most of the work — salty air, soft sand tones, and that open horizon.

Penny Lane
Playful, eclectic, and full of personality, Penny Lane brings colour and character to the breakfast scene. The interiors are as memorable as the menu, which ranges from comfort brunch classics to lighter options. It’s a fun, slightly chaotic-in-a-good-way spot to start the day with friends.

45 Curtain Rd, London EC2A 3PT
Kind of like a giant conservatory meets cool airport terminal. Head up the top floor to be met with an indoor landscaped garden, sprawling bar and breath taking panoramic views of London. If this is super busy (as it often is), an alternative that is just around the corner is The Garden at 120 Fenchurch Street - cooler, quieter vibes.
1, Sky Garden Walk, London EC3M 8AF
Head to Level 33 of The Shard to drink a glass of champagne with a side of the most breathtaking panoramic views in London. Hutong is undeniably chic, where ancient aesthetics meet a contemporary building complete with dim lighting and mirrored ceilings - we think James Bond would drink here. The three-storey inter-level cocktail bar allows you to pass from floor to floor, drink in hand - with ease (when you’re sober). Hutong is the perfect setting for romantic dates or catching up with friends.
