Watercress Cafe Ubud

Watercress Café is a great all-rounder. They do excellent coffee, breakfast, lunch and dinner. And their cocktails are pretty good too. In our opinion, they serve the best breakfast in Ubud, and indeed most of Bali. Owned by a couple of Aussie blokes who saw an opportunity for cafés in Bali serving delicious, distinctly Australian-style food (after-all, Bali is practically a second home for many Australians). They also provide employment for a number of local Balinese people who are clearly very passionate about their job and provide excellent service.
