Perched over the Wos River valley with iconic views of Ubud’s famous Pura Gunung Lebah temple, Cantina Rooftop is a lunch and dinner spot that melds an incredible globally-inspired menu and Bali in one vibrantly delicious scene. Plush seating and comfy sofas line the airy space where relaxing and taking your time over the dishes is welcomed…even encouraged.
The bistro-style menu includes the freshest of ingredients packed with tons of flavour with twists of Asia, South America and Europe. The two incredibly talented chefs hailing from Chile bring their experience from kitchens all around the world to the table. If you’re feeling a touch peckish a dip platter or the cheese & cold cuts selection to share are great options to start. You can also get a taste of their flavours a with their hot and cold small plates. Try the BBQ scallops with miso butter, or boquerones; delicious little white anchovies on sourdough with parsley and garlic.
If you’ve worked up an appetite touring the sites of Ubud, get stuck into Cantina Rooftop’s gorgeous paella (vegan option available!), famous fish tacos, or a seafood linguine with tiger prawns, venus clams, and squid manis. Is your mouth watering yet?
Now let’s talk drinks because this scenic space screams cocktail hour. The mixologists at Cantina Rooftop spoil us with all the tropical flavors you expect in Bali but their inventive combos go above and beyond your basic happy hour.
Don’t miss their spicy coconut mojito to give your palate a sneaky little surprise. Cocktails are 2-4-1 EVERY SINGLE DAY from 4-6pm so you can try out all the drinks to find your favourite! An impressive selection of craft beers and wines are available too.
As if the view, amazing menu and drinks weren’t enough: Cantina Rooftop also spoils us with DJs and special menu nights that are held on the regular, so keep an eye out on their Insta (linked below) for events!
This is one of the restaurants that should be way up at the top of your list of must trys in Ubud. Either for lunch or dinner you won’t regret stopping in to indulge in some of the best food and views in the whole town. Cantina Rooftop is a pretty easy stroll downhill from the main road in Ubud, just by the bridge overlooking Pura Gunung Lebah.
