The Uluwatu breakfast spots that open by 07:00, before the surf
Opens at seven or earlier, which on this coast means before the first paddle-out. Thirty-four places here are open by then; these are the ones worth getting up for.
1. Brunch Station Uluwatu - Cafe & Restaurant – Uluwatu
Top score on this page at 4.9, shared with one room over in Jimbaran, and it opens at seven. 4.9 across nearly four thousand ratings, which at that volume almost nothing on the Bukit holds. Seven in the morning to seven at night and then it stops, so the whole place is built around the day rather than the evening. Nasi goreng sits on the menu beside the western breakfast, which is rarer here than it ought to be.
Restaurant · 4.9 from 4452 Google reviews · $$ · 7:00 AM – 7:00 PM
2. ULU Garden – Uluwatu
The garden one, up the Padang Padang road rather than on the main strip. Seven in the morning to ten at night, 4.8 across three and a half thousand ratings. Vegan dishes are marked on the menu itself, and the room is open-sided, so the first hour here is cooler than anywhere on Labuansait.

3. Artisan - Uluwatu – Uluwatu
The bakery half of the main road. Open at seven until eleven at night, 4.7 from more than three thousand ratings. Reviewers come back for the coffee and for the sourdough and pastries, which are baked here rather than bought in. If you arrive past the breakfast hour it turns into sandwiches on warm bread.

4. Tarabelle – Ungasan
Everything a breakfast menu is supposed to have, and all of it written down. Eggs benedict, acai, granola, smoothie bowls, porridge, chia and omelettes, with vegan and gluten free marked on the menu rather than left to the waiter. Seven to ten at night in Ungasan, moderate prices, 4.8 across nearly three thousand ratings.

5. Analog Uluwatu | Cafe | Bar | Bistro – Uluwatu
Half past six on the main road, and the coffee is the reason people find it. Local and international beans, pour-over as well as milk drinks, and a healthy breakfast set that reviewers come back for, with vegan options on the menu. Garden tables outside, a wall of records inside. 4.7 across thirteen hundred ratings, moderate prices, and it closes at four on Mondays.
Cafe · 4.7 from 1408 Google reviews · 6:30 AM – 11:00 PM (Mon to 4:00 PM)
6. BGS Uluwatu - Bali Surf Shop & Coffee Bar – Uluwatu
A surf shop that makes its own almond milk, which is the reason to stop. Half past six on Labuansait, 4.8 across nearly four hundred ratings, and reviewers name the almond milk cappuccino before anything else. Breakfast here is the light kind: a bowl or something from the cake counter, then back out to the water.
Coffee Shop · 4.8 from 391 Google reviews · $$ · 6:30 AM – 10:00 PM
7. Drifter Surf Shop & Cafe - Uluwatu – Bingin
A surf shop with a kitchen attached, and the kitchen is not an afterthought. Open at seven on the Bingin road, which makes it the practical stop between the car park and the water. Locally made boards and gear in the front, vegetarian options on the menu, and the lowest rating on this page at 4.4 across thirteen hundred.
Surf shop and cafe · 4.4 from 1346 Google reviews · 7:00 AM – 10:00 PM
Breakfast in Uluwatu, open by 08:00
Open by eight by their published hours. The busiest rooms on the Bukit, and the ones with the longest queues after nine.
8. SUKA ULUWATU – Uluwatu
The busiest room in Uluwatu by a distance. More than ten thousand ratings at 4.8, with Gooseberry the only room in the same league. Half past seven until ten at night on Labuansait. Reviewers name breakfast first and dinner second, and the queue at nine on a Sunday is real, but it moves.

9. Gooseberry French Restaurant | Uluwatu – Uluwatu
French, and the breakfast menu proves it. Croissants, french toast, poached eggs, omelettes, granola and house sourdough, with gluten free marked. Eight in the morning to half past ten at night, 4.8 across nine and a half thousand ratings. Tucked down Gang Pirta rather than sitting on the main road.

10. Ohana Bali Restaurant & Bar – Uluwatu
The one to pick if you are eating with children. A playground, no entry fee, and a menu that runs across several cuisines rather than one. Eight in the morning to eleven at night, 4.8 from four and a half thousand ratings. Its reviews are about lunch and dinner more than breakfast, so treat it as the all-day room it is.

11. Shaffa GastroBazar, Wood-Fired Mediterranean Kitchen – Uluwatu

Eight in the morning to ten at night, four on Mondays, breakfast until two. The whole restaurant is an open-air terrace over village rooftops.

13. AMA by Ours – Uluwatu
Busy from the moment it opens, and priced accordingly. Eight in the morning to eleven at night on Labuansait, 4.6 across a thousand ratings, at the top of the price band for this coast. Families come early, and the monkeys on the power lines keep children occupied longer than the food does.

17. Lucid Cafe Bali – Jimbaran
The highest-rated room in Jimbaran at 4.9, and it opens at seven. Two thousand ratings at that score is the kind of thing that usually falls apart well before it gets there. The sweet end is what reviewers name first: milk tea, cheesecake, pastries. Moderate prices.
