Break Cafe Denpasar: AC, Carbonara, and a Pitaya Bowl Keeping Me Alive in Bali Heat
11:21 PMHyaho~
Back in Bali with 10,000 assignments and the study ethic of a houseplant. If my future could stop watching me like a CCTV, that’d be great.
It’s scorching. Rainy season came for one month; the rest is just summer with feelings. I’m one degree away from becoming a weather app.
Location: Jl. Hayam Wuruk No. 176, Denpasar Selatan
Size: about 20 seats; lunch crowd gets packed.
Blessing: AIR-CON. Like, actual cold air. Go inside, see God.

I didn’t shoot the room much because it was full and I didn’t want to be the menace with a camera

(okay I was a little bit of a menace, sorry, everyone eating quietly).
What I ordered (and how my mouth felt)
🧀 Carbonara IDR 27.000
Creamy sauce, salty bread on the side, solid value. Portion got me proper full. Not a life-changer, but absolutely a day-saver.

💜 Pitaya Bowl (red dragon fruit base) IDR 28.000
I forgot the full name (pitaya something-something), but the purple base = red dragon fruit. Fresh, bright, and actual nutrition—rare for my Bali diet of chaos. Loved it.
Green Tea Latte IDR 19.000
Coffee Latte IDR 17.000
Cheap, cheerful, caffeinated.
What more do I need besides a new personality.
Prices exclude tax/service if the bill says so.
Mine were the sticker prices listed.
Vibe check
- Crowded at lunch, but staff keep it moving.
- Cool enough to stop your makeup from resigning.
- A good “I’m overheating and mildly dramatic” pit stop.
Pros & cons (quick scan)
Pros
- ❄️ AC sanctuary in noon heat
- 💸 Wallet-friendly mains & drinks
- 🥣 Pitaya bowl = easy win for nutrients
- 📍 Central Denpasar spot
Cons
- 👥 Small room (~20 seats) = busy at lunch
- 📷 Limited photo ops when packed (unless you enjoy being glared at)
Tips if you go
- Hit off-peak (before/after lunch) if you want a quiet table.
- Pair the carbonara with something fresh (hey, pitaya bowl) so you don’t nap under the table.
- Order coffee latte if you like it simple; green tea latte if you want dessert-adjacent motivation.
Have a nice day everybody! don't forget to eat healthy food everyday!
