The menu leans toward the healthy side with clean, fresh food and plenty of options for anyone who likes to start the day light. It’s not about indulgence or spice, more about simple ingredients done well.
About Amsterdam Restaurant
Amsterdam Restaurant Ubud sits right on the edge of Central Ubud, just a short walk or drive from Jalan Raya Ubud (the main road).
It’s an semi open-air cafe-style spot that blends that relaxed Ubud energy with clean, modern decor and a scenic rice-field backdrop.
The name might make you think of Dutch food, but it’s not that. The menu is mostly modern breakfast and brunch dishes, smoothies, coffee, and a few Indonesian favorites.
It’s casual, friendly, and feels more like a hangout than a formal restaurant. Most people come here for breakfast or brunch, and it’s one of the few places in Ubud that opens early.

Location & Opening Hours

Amsterdam Restaurant Ubud’s exact location on Google Maps is G728+3P Ubud, Gianyar Regency, Bali, Indonesia
It’s easy to reach by scooter or private car, and there’s a small parking area out front that fits a few scooters and a couple of cars.
Open daily from 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM, it’s one of the few places in Ubud serving from early breakfast through dinner.
Make Your Own Breakfast & Brunch
The “Create Your Own” menu is what this place is known for.
You pick either three items for 79k or five for 109k, and build your own breakfast plate from a long list of breads, proteins, veggies, fruits, and sweets.
You can mix it up however you want. Think sourdough toast with smashed avocado and poached eggs, or banana bread with fruit salad and yoghurt bowl.
There’s also the Dutch touch with mini stroopwafels, which pair perfectly with a cappuccino.
It’s definitely on the tourist-price side, but the variety and presentation make it worth trying at least once.
Now, about the flavor: some reviews say the food can be a little plain. I’d agree. The ingredients are fresh and clean, but don’t expect anything too bold or salty.
On the upside, it’s great for anyone who’s health-conscious, doing keto, or just wants something light and wholesome. If you’re after indulgence or spice, though, you might find it a bit too mild.
Drink Options
Like the food, the drinks at Amsterdam Restaurant Ubud lean more toward the healthy side. You won’t find any cocktails, but there are a few beers if you just want something cold with your meal.
Coffee is solid. They serve all the usuals like cappuccino, flat white, and espresso, plus some fun options like the Stroopwafel Latte and Vanilla Caramel Latte.
If you prefer something lighter, there’s a full range of teas, matcha lattes, and iced lemon-ginger or lychee tea.
Their juice and smoothie list is what most people go for. Think “The Amsterdammer” (apple, ginger, carrot, beetroot) or the Vitamin Booster with mango, strawberry, lime, and ginger.
The smoothies are fresh and filling, with Passion Mood and Mango Mood being the most popular.
It’s all very wellness focused: no added sugar, no syrups, just clean, natural flavors.
The Atmosphere & Vibe
Amsterdam Restaurant Ubud has a cozy, modern cafe feel with a clean aesthetic that fits right into Ubud’s brunch scene.
It’s not a big space, and the upstairs area is reserved for guests of Tamanatara Suites & Villas.
You won’t get a sweeping rice-field view, but you can still see a bit of the street from most tables.
Since it’s semi open air, there’s no air conditioning, so it can get a little warm during lunch hours.
There’s both indoor and outdoor seating. Outdoors is perfect for an early breakfast when the air is cool, while inside is better if you want to escape the midday sun.
Amsterdam Restaurant Ubud Reviews
If you’ve looked up Amsterdam Restaurant Ubud on Google, you’ve probably seen the glowing reviews.
It sits with a solid reputation as one of Ubud’s better breakfast spots, but opinions are mixed once you read the details. Here’s a quick look at what people actually say.
👍 Good Reviews
- Many guests describe Amsterdam Restaurant as one of their favorite breakfast spots in Ubud, praising the friendly staff — especially Sri, who’s often mentioned by name for her warm service.
- The food gets plenty of love, with dishes described as “extraordinary,” “full of fantastic flavors,” and “beautifully presented.”
- People enjoy the early opening hours (7 AM) — perfect for early risers or travelers heading out on tours.
- The mix-and-match breakfast concept is a standout. Guests love being able to build their own plate from small items like chia pudding, avocado, hummus, scrambled eggs, or fruit bowls.
- Their smoothies, veggie juices, and coffee (especially oat milk cappuccinos) are consistently highlighted as great quality.
- Visitors also mention the cozy open-air atmosphere and rice field view, saying it feels calm and refreshing even though it’s right in central Ubud.
- Gluten-free options and well-cooked eggs get extra points for attention to detail.
- Overall, reviewers recommend it for a relaxed, flavourful brunch or a fun breakfast experience that’s a little different from the usual.
👎 Bad Reviews
- A few diners called the place overrated and overpriced, saying the portion sizes were small for what you pay.
- Some described the food as bland, tasteless, or poorly executed, with frozen fruit bowls and lukewarm drinks.
- There are mentions of slow service and staff being unhelpful or dismissive, especially during busy periods.
- Seating seems to be an issue for some — reviewers complained about cramped tables, not being allowed upstairs or on the terrace, and a noisy, overcrowded atmosphere.
- A few guests noted hygiene concerns, like flies around the dining area and a dog jumping on the furniture after rain.
- Others simply found the food average at best, saying it didn’t live up to the high online ratings.
After reading through dozens of reviews and visiting myself, I’d say both sides make sense. The staff are genuinely warm, the food is presented beautifully, and the place feels calm and clean.
But yes, the flavors can be a bit mild, especially if you’re expecting bold Balinese taste.
It’s a great fit for people who like healthy, minimal-style food in a relaxed setting, just not the spot if you’re chasing spice or big portions.
Final Thoughts: Worth a Visit?
Like I said, it’s great if you’re health conscious. But if you’re on holiday and looking to spoil yourself, I wouldn’t recommend it. That’s not a dig at the restaurant, it’s just good to know what you’re walking into.
Some Amsterdam Restaurant Ubud reviews mention the food being “bland” or “tasteless,” but that might actually be a plus if you prefer lighter, low salt, or diet friendly meals.
Sometimes you just want a simple setup, bread, eggs, avocado, some fruit, as basic and clean as possible without having to make it yourself. And that’s really the appeal of Amsterdam Restaurant Ubud.
Getting Around Ubud & Beyond
If you’re planning to explore more cafes, restaurants, or attractions around Ubud, the easiest way is to book a private car and driver.
It’s the most comfortable option, especially if you want to visit temples, rice terraces, or waterfalls without worrying about parking or directions.
For shorter trips or solo exploring, you can also rent a scooter, which delivers straight to your hotel or villa. Ubud’s roads can get a bit busy, but once you get used to it, riding gives you a lot more freedom to explore at your own pace.
