Ambar Ubud

Perched in lush, green Ubud, Ambar—meaning “sky” in Sanskrit—is your go-to sunset perch with a side of smooth jazz. Set within Mandapa, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve, it serves up a dreamy mix of jungle views, Japanese fusion cuisine, and nightly live jazz that melts away any lingering spa haze. And the cocktails? Total show-stealers. Imagine turmeric, mango, and chili all dancing in one glass. Effortlessly elegant, with just the right amount of flair.

Goro Goro Cafe & Kitchen

This tiny Sanur gem is what happens when two jazz musicians fall in love and open a curry café.

Ryoshi House of Jazz

Old but gold, Ryoshi in Seminyak has been serving sushi and jazz since 1993—long before Bali got cool. While their Japanese dishes are stellar, it’s the second-floor House of Jazz that’s the real star. Swing by on Mondays, Wednesdays, or Fridays from 9:15 PM and catch Bali’s jazz elite like Rio Sidik and Balawan doing their thing. It’s intimate, iconic, and guaranteed to jazz up your night.

Woods Bali

Welcome to Woods, where reclaimed timber meets refined taste. Tucked in Pererenan, this rustic-luxe restaurant is a nature lover’s dream by day and a jazz bar fantasy by night. Think: jungle tones, craft cocktails, and live vinyl jazz sets that transport you straight to Brooklyn (but with better weather). The vinyl nights? Chef’s kiss.

Oh, Zibiru. This Seminyak favorite has mastered the formula: scratch-made Italian food, whisper-soft lighting, and an old-Bali aesthetic that charms instantly. But jazz lovers, listen up—their open-air bar is straight out of a Tokyo kissa café, with a curated vinyl collection and analog sound system to match. It’s intimate, it’s nostalgic, and the drinks are dangerously good. Perfect for low-key dates or high-quality eavesdropping.
