About Varuna Warung

Varuna Warung delivers generous, customizable Indonesian plates at honest roadside prices just off Batu Bolong Beach. Skip the printed menu—point right through the glass counter to assemble your own nasi campur from dozens of daily homestyle dishes. Start with white, brown, or turmeric-infused yellow rice, then load up on shredded chicken, crispy tempeh, spiced green beans, and braised tofu. Regulars head straight upstairs to the breezy second-floor balcony, watching street traffic roll by over a plate piled high with sambal and fresh spring rolls.

  • Point-and-Pick Counter: Build your own nasi campur plate directly from an open glass display featuring dozens of freshly prepared meats, tofu, and vegetable sides.
  • Three Rice Bases: Anchor your meal with standard white rice, brown rice, or fragrant yellow turmeric rice before adding sides.
  • Breezy Balcony Seating: The open-air second floor offers a breezy vantage point to unwind and watch the street below away from ground-level bustle.

    Guests visual-pick from 20 to 30 freshly prepared Indonesian dishes in a clear display counter rather than ordering blindly from a printed menu.

  • Choice of Three Distinct Steamed Rices

    Custom nasi campur plates can be anchored with jasmine white rice, unpolished brown rice, or fragrant yellow turmeric rice cooked with coconut milk.

    They serve 3 different type of steam rice, regular jasmine rice, brown rice and yellow rice (nasi kuning, cooked with turmeric and coconut mik, yum).

  • Breezy Upper-Floor Street Views

    An airy second-floor balcony provides relaxed seating where guests can enjoy a gentle breeze while overlooking the vibrant street.

    I like to sit at the upper floor where I could see the ppl passing by in the opposite street while having my food and drink.

  • Warm, Characterful Balinese Atmosphere

    Solid timber seating and rustic accents deliver an unpretentious Balinese warung feel away from generic modern cafe aesthetics.

    The solid wooden tables and chairs, together with the colorful, rustic details, created such a cool and authentic Bali vibe.

    The spring rolls were honestly the best I have tried during my time in Bali! They were beautifully soft, easy to bite into and not spicy at all.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does ordering work?

There is no printed menu. You order by pointing to the dishes you want in the display counter to build your own custom plate (nasi campur), selecting your choice of rice (white, brown, or yellow) alongside a variety of meats, tofu, tempeh, and vegetable sides.

Can you pay by card?

Card payments require a minimum spend of 100,000 IDR. Because individual meals frequently cost less than that, bringing cash is strongly recommended for smaller orders.

Are there good vegetarian options?

Yes. There is a wide selection of vegetable and plant-based dishes available at the counter, including sautéed greens, green beans, bean sprouts, tofu, and tempeh.

Is there upstairs seating?

Yes. Varuna Warung features open-air seating, including an upper-floor balcony area with breezy views over the street.

What are the parking options?

There is dedicated on-site parking for scooters and motorbikes, but vehicle parking space is extremely limited for cars along the busy street.
