About Warung Monkey

Step off the Subak Sok Wayah walking trail for open-air Balinese cooking and sunset drinks overlooking active rice paddies. Tucked far away from Ubud traffic, this breezy pavilion pairs wide terrace views with serene back-garden tables perched directly over a lily pond. Regulars gravitate toward the raised stilt huts for lunch or settle in at dusk when the sky turns orange across the fields. The kitchen turns out fragrant Nasi Kuning Campur served on banana leaves alongside satay skewers and fresh vegetable curries, accompanied by house-made drinks like the Monkey Hanky shaken with local arak.

  • Stilt Huts Over the Lily Pond: Raised open-air huts and tables set above a back-garden lotus pond provide a quiet perch away from the main path.
  • Arak Cocktails at Sunset: Signature sundowners feature local Balinese arak, including the citrusy Monkey Hanky served with purple potato chips.

Why Dine at Warung Monkey

Experience over-water lotus huts, artisan arak cocktails, and authentic Balinese dining along Ubud's tranquil rice paddies.

  • Over-Water Seating on the Lotus Pond

    Tucked away behind the main dining area, elevated wooden huts and secluded tables sit directly over ponds dotted with lotus leaves and lily pads.

    The back area on the lily pads is beyond amazing 🤩 if you are looking for something quite off the beaten path with great atmosphere vibe and food

  • Sunset Balinese Arak Cocktails

    The evening drink menu highlights Balinese palm spirit concoctions like the Monkey Hanky, paired with dusk views over the rice paddies.

    We washed it down with an amazing local cocktail with arak, apple juice and lemon called a Monkey Hanky.

  • Scenic Rest Stop on the Rice Field Walk

    Situated right along the scenic rice trail path, it serves as a natural stop to pause for morning breakfast or mid-day refreshments.

    We stopped in for breakfast along the route of our rice field walk.

  • Direct Views of Working Rice Fields

    Open-air tables look directly out across verdant working rice terraces, offering sights of ducks wandering the fields as you dine.

    And we got to eat it looking over a rice field watching ducks play.

  • Affordable Traditional Balinese Fare

    Traditional Balinese dishes like nasi campur and grilled chicken are presented in woven bamboo baskets lined with banana leaves at accessible local rates.

    the food is excellent and price is so affordable, the Balinese grilled chicken set and Mask campus merah, mask kuning camput are so delicious and well presented with bamboo basket and banana leaves.

  • Gluten-free pancakes

    I tried gluten-free pancakes (red rice and banana flour) - delicious, not too sweet, (you can ask w/o sugar on toppings), fluffy, wow!

Before you head over

Helpful guidance on navigating the path, seating choices, and evening visits

  • Access via the Rice Field Trail

    Reach the warung on foot via the Subak Sok Wayah rice field trail tucked off Ubud's busy strip, as it sits along a scenic walking path rather than a direct drive-up road.

  • Seek Out the Back Lily Pad Seating

    Head toward the back garden area if you prefer dining above water in raised wooden huts surrounded by lotus ponds and lily pads rather than front terrace views.

  • Accept Offered Insect Repellent at Dusk

    When arriving in the evening for sunset drinks or dinner by the rice fields, accept the insect repellent provided by staff to stay comfortable outdoors.
