Old Friends Coffee --Bali Coffee Farmer & Roaster — Restaurant in Bali

This is my absolute favorite coffee place in Ubud (Bali as well). The owner is a coffee farmer who uses only his and his own family's beans from Kintamani (region of Bali) in his shop. He then sorts them and roasts them on the premise. In the five or six times I visited, I never saw anyone else preparing the coffee/espressos/lattes/etc other than him. And it's a real treat cause he puts so much care and attention to each cup he prepares.

So here's the thing: if you care about the love that's put into the preparation of something you're going to consume, then this is the place to come to. I tried about six to seven other coffee places in Ubud, and the coffee is always prepared by hired hands, usually young and basically doing their best to hold down a job. Here, it's different. It's like enjoying something prepared by an artist who has studied his craft for a long time.

And yes, the coffee tastes wonderful! (I actually broke a recent coffee fast so that I could re-taste their coffee.)

You can also buy freshly roasted beans to take home with you. They make great gifts.

But also, the space is lovely. There's quiet jazz and Latin music in the background, not too loud, so conversations don't get out of hand here. People seem mostly polite about the noise they're making. It's rarely packed since it's on the south side of Ubud where there's less tourists. Or there are more mature tourists and ex-pats who seem to frequent this place.

Lastly, they also have amazing raw cheesecakes and other such pies and cakes, some of them vegan (for those who care about that...

We stumbled upon this charming coffee shop right after having lunch at a nearby restaurant. I instantly fell in love with its laid-back, vintage vibes, which brought back memories of a cozy cafe I visited in Laos.

This place takes pride in roasting its own coffee, so my expectations were quite high. I decided to try their latte with coconut milk. While some enjoy coconut milk in their coffee, this particular blend didn't quite hit the spot for me. In my opinion, if you're looking for a plant-based alternative, oat milk is a much better choice, as it won't overpower the coffee's flavor.

On the flip side, the chai latte was absolutely delightful.

By the way, they have two friendly dogs inside. Don't worry, they're harmless and, in fact, they were peacefully snoozing throughout our...

This is the place that I should visit every time go to Ubud
