20 Best Breakfast Spots in Sanur (2026): Beachfront, Bakeries & Coffee

A long-running favorite on Sanur's main strip, Batujimbar Cafe has a fitting tagline: “Sanur's Living Room.” A dedicated breakfast menu runs through the morning before the all-day menu takes over, and the kitchen moves easily between Western and Indonesian cooking. Eggs Benedict Royale with smoked salmon, truffle scrambled eggs on sourdough and French toast made with homemade lemon brioche share the page with nasi kuning Manado, a yellow rice plate from North Sulawesi with spiced beef and sambal roa.

The coffee is brewed from organic Arabica grown at Wanagiri in north Bali and in the Gayo highlands of Aceh. Look for the gluten-free serabi kinca, a Javanese coconut pancake. On busy weekend mornings, it pays to book a table by WhatsApp.

From Here is one of Sanur's newest breakfast addresses, set in the quieter streets of southwest Sanur. It calls itself an all-day, no-fuss eatery. The breakfast menu runs all day, and an in-house bakery counter turns out sourdough, croissants, bagels and cookies.

The menu has more personality than most. Sichuan Turkish eggs come with whipped yogurt and crispy chili oil, the Casablanca Benny pairs lamb merguez with date purée and hollandaise, and Korean fried chicken arrives on a bubble waffle with gochujang glaze. Build Your Own Breakfast lets you pick three to five items, while the Big Breakfast covers everything at once. Families get a proper kids' menu, and the kitchen also serves afternoon tea.

Soul on the Beach sits on the sand at Sindhu Beach, and for many visitors it is the classic Sanur breakfast: eggs and coffee at a table facing the water, with morning walkers passing on the beach path. The breakfast menu is long and well judged. Turkish eggs come with ricotta tomato sauce, chili oil and homemade potato bread, the Benedict is made with country ham or cured marlin gravlax, and the big breakfast goes by the name What My Ex Eats.

Indonesian plates include nasi kuning with satay lilit, and the menu marks vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free dishes. There is even a pet menu for dogs. Bookings are taken online, so reserve a front-row seat if the sea view is the reason you came.

Café Smörgås was founded by a Swedish family in 2006 and remains one of the best-loved breakfast rooms on Sanur's main strip. Every bread and pastry is baked in-house, which shows in the toast, the croissants and the cakes served in the afternoon for fika, the Swedish coffee break. The classics are all here: a full plate of eggs, bacon, sausage, beans and rösti; huevos rancheros with beef chili; and the Croissant de Luxe with scrambled egg, smoked salmon, avocado and wasabi mayo.

The best value is the Early Birds menu, served from 7 to 10 AM, with breakfast combos from IDR 42,000 that include coffee or tea. A kids' menu and a lively, friendly room make it an easy pick for families; reservations are taken by WhatsApp.

Bread Basket bills itself as an authentic European bakery, with bread baked daily from scratch and bagels and sourdough as the house specialties. The Sanur shop on the main strip is a bakery-cafe first, with a counter of croissants and loaves and an all-day breakfast menu. The Big Bang Breakfast piles bacon, sausage, eggs and beans onto sourdough, the Waffle Benedict swaps the muffin for a waffle, and the smoked salmon bagel is the pick for bagel lovers.

Shakshuka arrives with pita, and the bacon-and-egg muffin is built on a house-baked English muffin. In late 2026 the Sanur shop added a line of salt breads sold only at this branch. It closes in the late afternoon, so treat it as a breakfast and lunch stop.

A couple who had baked in a Paris boulangerie founded Daily Baguette in Bali in 2014, and the Sanur shop, at the south end of the main strip, keeps that French accent. It is one of the first doors to open in the morning, and the counter is lined with baguettes, croissants and pastries to eat in or take out. The all-day breakfast menu leans French, with oeufs à la coque (soft-boiled eggs with toasted strips for dipping) and thick brioche French toast topped with honey, pineapple and caramel, or banana and chocolate.

Egg dishes run from smashed avocado on sourdough to a salmon croissant and several versions of eggs Benedict. A full espresso list, from piccolo to flat white, makes it a reliable coffee stop as well.

Sala takes its name from the word for living room, and this bistro toward the south end of the main strip aims for exactly that feel: a neighborhood room for coffee, a family brunch or a long dinner with wine. Breakfast is the main event in the morning, and the cooking is notably polished. The chili scrambled eggs come with chorizo (pork), stracciatella and chili butter, while the sticky date pancake is layered with whipped cream cheese, roasted pear and butterscotch.

The Hash Benedict sets poached eggs on potato hash, and steak and eggs with chimichurri suits a bigger appetite. Vegans get a chili scrambled tofu. The coffee list includes signatures such as the Sala Mont Blanc and ceremonial matcha. To reserve a table, send a message on WhatsApp.

Maya Sanur Resort & Spa runs Rue as its street-side cafe, and the name, French for “street,” sums up the idea: a terrace on Sanur's main strip that anyone can walk into, fronted by a bakery display of breads, pastries, croissants and macarons. Mornings bring a dedicated breakfast menu, and the All Day Brekky menu picks up from there.

The big breakfasts include coffee, tea or juice, from the full God Save the Queen plate to the vegetarian Green Peace with an omelet, grilled halloumi and avocado. Benny Your Way lets you choose the topping for your eggs Benedict, and the Russian syrniki pancakes come with fresh and confit blueberries and sour cream. The menu marks vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free and pork dishes, and there are kids' options too.

Luhtu's Coffee Shop has been part of the Sindhu Beach scene since 2009 and celebrated its 17th anniversary in June 2026. It sits right on the beach, with tables under blue-and-white umbrellas by the sand, so breakfast comes with a view of the water and the morning bustle along the beach path. The breakfast menu has a loyal following, and the kitchen is known for its homemade cakes; it also bakes birthday cakes to order.

Relaxed and unpretentious, it makes a good alternative when the bigger beachfront restaurants at Sindhu are full. It is also on the way to the harbor from central Sanur, which makes it a handy stop before a morning boat.

Lilla Pantai reopened on 29 June 2026 after 18 months away, in a new beachfront home on the Sanur promenade at Cemara Beach, toward the quieter south end of the beach path. You can have breakfast at a table on the sand, in the open-air dining room or up on the rooftop lounge, and it is served well into the afternoon. Ocean Sunrise layers smoked salmon, cream cheese and avocado on sourdough; Fill & Chill is the full cooked breakfast; and the Exotic Pancake comes green, with banana and coconut cream.

Smoothie bowls are named after Bali's areas, from the Sanur bowl to an acai Ubud bowl. Try the house Lilla coffee, served hot with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. A vegetarian and vegan section covers plant-based diners.

On the beach path beside the Hyatt in Semawang, Lemo Beach Cafe builds its menu around gluten-free and sugar-free cooking. The breads are gluten-free, made with pumpkin, and most dishes are labeled vegan, vegetarian or keto, which makes ordering simple for anyone with dietary needs. Start with the gluten-free banana pancake with caramelized banana and coconut cream, or the coconut granola with coconut yogurt.

Savory choices include eggs on pumpkin bread, a tempeh sandwich and bubur, a Balinese rice porridge that also comes in a vegan version. Coconut coffee joins the usual espresso drinks on the list. In the evening the cafe becomes a dessert bar with wine, and the beachfront tables make it a pleasant stop at any hour.

Over the Moon opened in 2020, in the middle of the pandemic, and during the crisis handed out more than 15,000 free meals to the people hit hardest. Today it is a light, spacious cafe and bar at the north end of Sanur's main strip, and breakfast is served from morning to night. The Big Breakfast, starred on the menu as the signature, comes with eggs your way, chicken sausage or bacon, hash brown, spinach, mushrooms, beans, tomato and sourdough.

The American Breakfast adds waffles, and the salmon on toast is dressed with a poached egg, capers, dill and cream cheese. Smoothie bowls come in raspberry, mango and red dragon fruit, all vegetarian. Later in the day the room switches to bar mode, with a happy hour every afternoon.

Le Croissant starts baking at 5 AM, and by the time the doors open on Sanur's main strip, the counter is stacked with homemade croissants. Come here when pastry is the point of breakfast, though the kitchen goes well beyond the bakery case. The Salmon Truffle croissant is filled with homemade gravlax, scrambled egg, feta and truffle oil, and the breakfast menu also has shakshuka, a ricotta hot cake and eggs Benedict with gravlax.

The coffee is roasted by Expat. Roasters, and the menu marks vegan and vegetarian dishes, including a vegan, gluten-free granola. A kids' section on the menu makes it easy to bring children, and you can reserve a table by WhatsApp. The brand also runs a cafe in Ubud.

In the residential northwest of Sanur, minimalist Ba Koudelka grew in May 2026, adding a backyard and a sunken semi-outdoor dining area. It describes itself as serious about food and coffee, and the coffee list backs that up: a house blend of Brazilian and Bali Kintamani beans, single-origin shots from Colombia and Ethiopia, and Kintamani filter coffee brewed in a V60. The all-day breakfast menu is short and good value, with most plates at IDR 49,000 plus tax.

Choose the Ba Kou Breakfast with hash browns and sourdough, smashed avocado with feta, a chicken waffle with maple syrup or shakshuka with chicken sausage. The quiet, spacious room is a favorite with remote workers who settle in for the morning.

For serious coffee in Sanur, Series Coffee Roasters is the destination: a small neighborhood roastery and cafe. Ken Hendarto, the man behind Series, roasts single-origin coffees from across Indonesia in-house, and the roastery also supplies beans to other cafes on the island. It sits in the residential streets on the inland side of town, so it feels like a locals' spot rather than a tourist stop.

Food is simple and done well. Expect a sesame bagel with ricotta cream cheese and honey, canelés, salt bread and French toast, all made to go with the coffee. It keeps daytime hours only and is closed on Fridays, so plan a morning visit.

Indonesian architect Jafni Zul Fahmi and Australian coffee specialist Aidan Broderick founded Seta Coffee Studio as a micro-roastery. It occupies a warm, minimalist space below an architectural practice, down a small lane near the south end of the main strip. Every bean is roasted in small batches on site. Try the Kamaratih house blend of Bali and Aceh coffees as a flat white, or the Anayu filter roast, a Kintamani coffee processed by carbonic maceration.

The menu stays light and homemade: spinach or salmon quiche, toasted sandwiches, and sweets such as orange cake, apple pie, ANZAC cookies and canelés. Work by Indonesian artists is on display, and the team runs a sister cafe, Seta Coffee Library, in Ubud.

A 100% plant-based canteen in west Sanur, KooD works a little differently from the other cafes on this list. It is self-service: guests collect their food, return their plates and wipe their own tables. The kitchen does not fry, uses no white sugar and can leave out onion and garlic (allium-free) on request. Alongside the canteen there is a bakery, a gelato counter and a small shop selling the house plant milks and snacks.

In 2026 KooD has run a morning coffee-and-roll deal from 7 to 10 AM, pairing a kopi susu made with cashew or oat milk with a fermented sourdough roll; ask at the counter whether it is on. Every meal comes with free mineral water or rosella tea, and parking is free.

INCORE Infinity Coffee & Roastery, known until September 2026 as Infinity Coffee (and still listed under that name on Google Maps), sits on Matahari Terbit Beach at the north end of Sanur, where the fast boats leave for Nusa Penida. It opens at 6 AM, which makes it the most practical coffee stop before an early boat. The cafe was renovated and reopened in October 2025 and serves beans it roasts itself, with single-origin coffees on the list.

Coffee is the focus here, so expect a cup and a light bite with a view of the sea and the boats rather than a full cooked breakfast. A cup-rinsing station made from recycled plastic is part of its effort to cut waste. For a sit-down meal, Sindhu Beach is a short ride south.

The Bare Bottle runs on the motto “Coffee First, Party Later,” and its Sanur cafe, a few blocks inland from the beach in south Sanur, is one of the earliest openers in town. That makes it a useful breakfast stop for early risers on the south side of town, and a good place to pick up a coffee before a walk along the beach path. Espresso is made from the house blend, with plant milks on offer.

The brunch menu centers on smoothie bowls, eggs and toast, and it marks vegetarian, gluten-free and dairy-free dishes, with a vegan breakfast among them. Doors close at 5 PM, so come in the morning. There are sister cafes in Ubud and Kuta.

Gardenia Cafe belongs to Gardenia Boutique Guesthouse, on a quiet street in the Mertasari area of south Sanur, away from the traffic of the main strip. The kitchen keeps things homey, with a small menu cooked fresh from local ingredients, and a slow breakfast here feels more like eating at a friend's guesthouse than at a busy cafe.

Pick it if you are staying in south Sanur or walking back from the beach at Mertasari, and free Wi-Fi makes it easy to linger over a second coffee. Prices are modest by Sanur standards, the welcome is warm, and the mood is calm.
