Coffee is the life force for many people living on the planet. The smell of fresh brewing coffee is something that has been keeping them alive since ever. Because of its high demand, coffee shops in Bali are popping up drastically for the past 5 years (even during the COVID period). Some shops are offering a good coffee presentation with an authentic Italian coffee maker, while others are focusing on its perfect location for a meet & greet, unique interior, cosy working-space concept design, or low prices that will not burn holes in the pockets. The only similarity between one coffee shop to another is good Wi-Fi. Let’s be honest here, would you go to a coffee shop if it doesn’t provide free internet?
In Canggu, Kawisari Coffee Shop & Eatery is welcoming everyone who wants to share their passion without to compromising the quality of coffee. Contradicting the so-called coffee giants such as Starb***s and alike, they serve you a strong coffee supplied by one of the oldest and largest organic coffee plantations in East Java, Kawisari Plantation.
Having benefited from the best soil condition and perfect altitude, the plantation was organically grown in Robusta and Arabica. The beans are then hand-sorted carefully, living up to the near zero- defects coffee beans reputation, which has earned Tugu Kawisari Coffee the prestigious awards of agricultural products in AVPA Paris 2019 for its Medium Dark Robusta.
Kawisari Coffee Shop & Eatery is located in a strategic location as they are quite in the centre of the busiest spot in Canggu. Hence, if there are a lot of people coming up from various parts of the world, this spot is where you can host them with extreme ease. The coffee shop is adjacent to Hotel Tugu Bali. It is right near the famous and beautiful Batu Bolong Beach and, therefore, if you are in this area, a walk across the beach is inevitable, just like their coffee.
As you waltz into the lower ground of the shop, you can feast your eyes on a range of edible organic goods that are sourced ethically from the same plantation as the coffee beans. From teas, honey, spreads, and fresh fruity jams, to delectable chocolate truffles -all made with the concept of farm-to-table. You can order your coffee here.
Featuring many selections of beans and roasting types, you can enjoy having their coffees brewed freshly or take home a pouch. From Kopi Tubruk to Es Kopi Plantation Madu a la Pak No, Cinnamon Coconut Cream Latte, and Kawisari Coffee Liquor infusions – the menu is every coffee lover’s dream.
Alternatively, go to the second floor should you want to dine in the proper dining area. This is where you can chill in a cosy space to get together. You are free to chit-chat and meet up – sit at whatever time you feel like. Their aim is to provide an affordable space for mates to unite again after a long time, for a new business deal to crack or for the two hearts to meet and get to know each other better. For those who are feeling suffocated inside a packed air-conditioned room, an outdoor area is also available in a French garden-style concept. Here, you can embrace the fresh air and enjoy the scenery.
While coffee is the prime forte here, you can also pair it with a variety of cakes or small bites such as Acai sorbet or Onde-Onde Kawisari. Combine the snacks with coffee and amplify the taste, it will be a blast that lingers on your lips. Their full menu features authentic Indonesian dishes (Nasi Tenong Selametan, Bubur Ayam Kayu Kopi, and Truffle Singkong Merekah), an All-day breakfast selection (Smoked Salmon Scramble Eggs, Classic Avocado Toast Platter, and Skillet Spanish baked Eggs, Pain perdu, The Amazon Forest Bowl), Vegan-friendly menu (Indian Style Scrambled Tofu, Pulled Jackfruit Wrapped, and Terong Balado).
With that being said, Kawisari Coffee Shop & Eatery covers your breakfast, lunch and dinner – what more one can expect?
