Six cafés that rate well on Google and are also named by an independent guide, in order. Each entry is short: what it is and what to know before you go.

The order is Google rating weighted by review count, so a 4.8 from thousands of reviews beats a 4.9 from a few hundred. Nobody on this team has eaten at any of them, and we don't claim otherwise. To see which you can work from, read our cafés and coworking guide.

A bakery and coffee shop in a small wooden building on Jalan Pantai Batu Bolong, with pastry, bread and coffee made fresh daily. Honeycombers points to the Salma Tartine and a pastrami sandwich. Bali Holiday Secrets says people rave about the jumbo croissants, and you might queue.HoneycombersBali Holiday SecretsGigi Susu (Instagram)
The Berawa branch, built around healthy food, from breakfast through a late dinner. Tables can be booked by WhatsApp.HoneycombersBali Holiday Secrets
Honeycombers puts it first on its Bali nomad-café list, describing a light room with floor-to-ceiling windows and a calmer crowd than the brunch spots. Coffee from IDR 32,000. The address says Batu Bolong, but our coordinates put it about 2.3 km inland from the beach end of that road.Honeycombers Bali
A coffee bar and surf shop with free wifi, free water refills, outdoor seating and card payment. The sunrise crowd fills it early. It says it's 100 m from Echo Beach, but our coordinates make it closer to 810 m.BGS BaliBali Holiday Secrets
The earliest opener here, daily 6am to 6pm, pitched as a quiet morning with your laptop. It closes at 6pm, so it won't suit evening calls.Bean Café BaliHoneycombers Bali
Family-friendly, with a playground and boozy brunches, so don't expect a quiet table. It's the closest on this list to the beach, about 490 m by our coordinates.Milk & MaduHoneycombers
