Written By Bisma Eight

Ubud evenings are made for a good meal followed by one more drink, one more song, and a little time to see where the night goes. If you’re searching for where to eat in Ubud before a night out, start with the kind of dinner you want. Then make your way to No Más Bar on Jalan Monkey Forest for cocktails, bar bites, and live music.

Here are four dinner ideas that make it easy to build a full evening in Ubud.

Smoky Indonesian cooking: Liap Liap

Choose Liap Liap for wood-fired Indonesian cooking inspired by culinary traditions from across the archipelago. It’s a memorable way to explore local flavors over dinner, with grilled dishes and regional influences at the center of the experience. Reservations are encouraged for busy dinner periods.

Want a different kind of meal? Three more Ubud options

For a wider mix of cuisines and dining styles, these are useful alternatives to consider:

  • Babi Guling Ibu Oka is a family-run warung known for Balinese roast pork. It opens daily from 11 am to 6 pm, or until sold out, so plan it as an early meal before a later night out.

  • Queen’s of India Ubud specializes in Indian cuisine, including curries, kebabs, and biryani, with a setting overlooking the Royal Palace.

  • Sayuri Healing Food is a plant-based café for guests looking for vegan, raw-living, and cooked dishes. Its published hours are 8 am to 11 pm; confirm the latest service time before visiting.

Finish the evening at No Más

After dinner, continue to No Más Bar, on Jalan Monkey Forest in central Ubud. The bar opens from 5 pm and stays open late, with cocktails, bar bites, live music, and a soundtrack that moves through rock, salsa, and more. Check the live music schedule before you head over.

For the smoothest evening, book dinner ahead on busy nights, allow time for the trip between venues, and check each venue’s latest hours. Whether you choose a rooftop table, Mediterranean sharing plates, a poolside setting, or wood-fired Indonesian flavors, Ubud makes it easy to turn dinner into a night out.
