The coffee and pastries here are simply the best — honestly, nowhere else in Uluwatu compares. I always choose BGS for my daily coffee. The staff, baristas, and community are absolutely lovely — it’s a special place with great energy
That’s exactly why I feel the need to share this. I’m leaving a low rating only to draw the owner’s attention - not because I want to. But there are some ongoing issues that really affect the experience
The seat cushions are extremely dirty. I understand it’s a surf-friendly café, and people come in wearing wet swimwear - that’s totally fine. But washing the cushions even once a month would make a huge difference. Right now, it’s really unpleasant to sit on them
The toilet also needs serious attention: dirty sink, weak water flow, no soap, toilet paper issues, broken door, and a consistently bad smell. These are small but essential details that impact how people feel
In terms of coffee and food: 10/10 In terms of space and maintenance: needs improvement
I recently visited BGS in Ubud - I know it’s newer, but the atmosphere and cleanliness made a big impact. If those small things were taken care of in Uluwatu, the experience would be just perfect
I know this is not the fault of the staff — they do their best. This is something for the management to consider. Please take it seriously, because your café is truly amazing and deserves to shine in...
Read moreA quick coffee boost after a sun-soaked session at Nyang Nyang Beach, and BGS is the perfect choice for today! BGS Uluwatu—a coffee shop, or as they say, a surf shop complemented by a coffee joint. I've frequented their Canggu spot before, and now it's time to check out the Uluwatu branch. As always, I went for the trusty Iced Black and couldn't resist their famous Latte Almond. No need to rave about their coffee—it's great. And their staff? Love them! Also eyeing their CHPO sunglasses collection; thank goodness I can order them online, as I'm not sure when I'll be back at BGS in the...
Read moreI tried an espresso - single shot and it was pretty bad, very basic flavour, mainly chocolate and overall quite bitter. It feels like they did not clean the machine for a while, so you can really taste it in the finish, really unpleasant. They served a bottle of water but in 5 min when I finished the shot already, also the water was warm, but the glass was chilled. Not sure how it works. I tried a biscoff cookie and it was absolutely delicious so kinda mix feeling about this place. The vibe was definitely good, while I would probably not come back...
