If you’re in Ubud and craving an authentic slice of Balinese culture, is an absolute must. Unlike the more touristy spots, this market is where locals gather to eat, shop, and socialize, giving you a real taste of everyday life.
The atmosphere is bustling yet welcoming, with food stalls lining the streets, each offering mouth-watering dishes at unbeatable prices. You’ll find everything from spicy babi guling (roast pork) to satay skewers sizzling over open flames, alongside vibrant fruit stalls and irresistible sweet treats like pandan cakes and pisang goreng (fried banana).
One of the highlights for me was the nasi campur stall—piled high with fragrant rice, flavorful meats, and a rainbow of sides, all for just a few dollars. Don’t miss the freshly made fruit juices or the smoky aroma of grilled seafood wafting through the air.
Beyond the food, the market also has an eclectic mix of clothing, handmade crafts, and trinkets. Bargaining is expected, and it’s all part of the experience, so don’t hesitate to haggle with a smile.
While it can get crowded, especially on weekends, that’s part of the charm. It’s lively, chaotic, and full of character—a far cry from polished tourist spots, but that’s exactly what makes it so special.
Pro tip: Arrive hungry and bring cash, as most vendors don’t take cards. And if you’re not sure where to start, just follow your nose or ask a local—they’ll happily point you to their favorite stalls.
