Best reggae bars in Bali: find options near you

Nice place for an Afro beat night. The place has 3 floors to enjoy your night. The rooftop was the best to just sit and chill. If you are looking to sway and dance, the 1st and 2nd floor offers DJs.

I always enjoy coming to Mesa, especially on Fridays. The music is consistently one of the best in Bali, and the staff are always friendly, attentive, and professional. The only downside is that there are occasionally guests who don’t respect others’ personal space on the dance floor. However, I really appreciate the security team, they take these situations seriously, respond quickly, and make sure everyone feels safe & enjoy their time. Huge respect to the guards for doing such a great job. Overall, it’s still one of my favorite places for great music and a fun night out.

The best club in Canggu! Mesa Bali is hands down the best nightlife spot in Canggu. Amazing music, great DJ lineup with different vibes every night, and the crowd is always on point. The atmosphere is classy but still super fun, the sound system is top-tier, and the energy never drops. Staff are friendly and professional, making the whole experience even better. If you’re looking for a place to party, dance, and have a great night in Canggu, Mesa Bali is a must-visit!

Amazing vibes after 12pm, great DJ with amazing transitions and vibe. We formed a dance circle, everyone was super nice and super chill.

Best night out in bali! Great music, awesome drinks, and fantastic crowd. Will definitely come back.

MESA is the best ever club in canggu, they have different event every day. So you choose what day you want to coming there appropriate genre music as you Like. They also have very good and friendly staff. So for everyone if you in canggu and need party just go to MESA Bali 😊

We visited Mesa for their Afro night. The entrance fee was 250k IDR per person, which included one drink. The atmosphere was energetic and very crowded, sometimes even a bit chaotic, but the music and overall vibe were enjoyable. One thing that stood out positively was the security team — they were organized, attentive, and handled the crowd very professionally. Overall, a fun nightlife experience if you enjoy busy party environments.

Dino’s is one of those rare places that reminds you why you travel in the first place. In a town full of trendy venues, this bar stands out for its genuine character, welcoming atmosphere, and strong sense of community. From the moment you walk in, you’re made to feel like part of the family, with great live music and a relaxed vibe that brings locals, expats, and travelers together. It’s the kind of place where you stop in for one drink and end up staying all evening. If you’re looking for an authentic Canggu experience away from the usual tourist scene, Dino’s is a hidden gem and highly recommended.

The most beautiful bar i have been in for the longest time. Its like stepping into a time capsule. Great drinks. Great value. Amazing service and fantastic vibe. Will be a regular

My favorite Bar in canggu.. The cocktails are just the best cocktails. Right mixing. Good alcohol. Fun and friendly staffs. And the owner is really good.

Stopped in for a drink and LOVE the place!! Super friendly staff, great prices for happy hour! Will be back for the live music 🎶

Dino and his team provide a great environment for everyone to relax and have fun. The decor adds to the nice ambience. I thoroughly enjoyed spending time there.

What an incredible experience in Canggu! Dino is a legend.. the band is awesome.. the vibe is right. It’s exactly what you want out of a dive bar in Bali! They even let me get on stage and sing! 😅 P.S. it’s the small things that count… they serve up warm peanuts every time you sit down. They remember your name. And they support drinking and dancing! 🕺

Hey the best cocktail bar in Bali, the music, atmosphere is so great. This the right place to be in Bali. The staff and the music is the best in the island Big up Mr Dino

Casual dining, if you are on the budget , perfect place to hang out in a heart of Ubud! Food is simple and what you expect from a simple place. Live music every day and after that professional DJ rocks the place. They also have karaoke lounge, pool tables . Atmosphere very relaxed and party like. That’s the place where i met my soulmate, when I was on solo vacation in 2023. Like in EAT LOVE PRAY. We are still together, I moved to bali from USA. Highly recommend this place for fun time and relaxing atmosphere

Liked the vibes of this place, great lice music with energetic atmosphere. The location was so good as it was next to my hotel, which was another advantage for me. The service was very quick and good. The only thing I didn’t like was the extra percentage fee added to the bill if the payment was via a credit card!

We love this place, so kind and polite. My son loves to play pool so it’s perfect to have a game while waiting for our food. Great atmosphere and music. We had the Bolognese pasta, chicken wings and Chicken teriyaki 😋 delicious.

The most expensive 2 beers in Bali! 138,000 rp. Not even very cold. I was told it was not their problem, which i can understand as they are just employees.Cannot judge on anything else. It may be a great food veniue and music place but not on my budget.

Had an amazing night at LOL Bar in Ubud. The vibe was super gezellig from the moment we walked in. The live band was honestly incredible, so much energy and real talent. In between, the DJ kept everything flowing perfectly, great mix, great timing. The place just feels alive. Good crowd, fun atmosphere, and the staff are genuinely friendly and easygoing. Also worth mentioning, the sound system is really solid. Everything sounds clean and powerful, which makes a big difference. And the best part, it’s all very affordable for what you get. If you want a fun night out in Ubud, this is definitely a place to go.

Tried their cocktail offer buy 1 get 1 free. Was amazing experience and great drinks, their live band was great and there’s also a pool table

Had a fun night out here, good music and the special offer cloud nine buckets are great value for 150k. Even though the rest of the street was pretty quiet the bar had a good vibe and was quite busy. Will be back again.

BE CAREFUL OF YOUR MONEY , Beware of getting shortchanged here. I ordered a watermelon juice (35,000 IDR) and paid with a 100,000 IDR cash bill. Despite asking twice for my change, I was ignored and left without receiving the money owed to me. Keeping a customer’s change after being asked multiple times is completely unacceptable. I would strongly advise people to go somewhere else in Amed.

The place to be in Amed! The oldest bar in Amed with live music 4 times a week with the best bands in the area, free pool tables and super spacious! Thanks guys for some great nights here!

We came here for a night out with friends a couple of times while staying in Amed. This place had a fun vibe and music, the band was okay – playing pub songs and the staff were all super kind. They let us keep playing our music through their iPad after they were supposed to stop music for the night which was fun. Drinks were okay. It has a hostel attached.

One of the only Lovely place in Amed during the low season. The place is huge and can look pretty empty. 2 Pool table you can use for free and price are the usual for drinks in Amed. Live hand playing weekly and karaoke or playlist of not. Hostel is connected to PACA but I haven’t been. Music does stop at 23h each day so its not all night noisy

Great bar, spacious, cheap booze, entertaining live music and pool tables. Would definitely come here again.

If you’re looking for a nice clean cozy place to sleep that’s definitely here. I slept like a baby and ok, some nights they have live music but it’s till 11, but I assume you’re on vacation here, and even if you wake up early next morning, well then just sleep after your diving or whatever. Beds are super comfortable, rooms spacious, so you have enough privacy, and for this price you even get a free breakfast, middle of the town, one minute from the beach, the best place in Amed

We came here for a drink and to listen to live music. Great vibes and the band was incredible!! Will come back

Big open dance floor. Decent price for a Bintang bucket of beer. Buy 5 get 6. Reggae was pretty good and the sound was good. Pretty loud actually. We were in early so it was not crowded. A band was setting up but we left before they started. Good vibe overall. Interesting name choice. Being American, Buffalo Soldiers may have worked as well. They were involved in the sadly true Indian wars post Civil War. Worth seeing but go later for a larger crowd.

Very disappointed, your website says is open however when we reached the place a big post stating Monday and Tuesday closed. Please update your page guys, it was our last day in Bali- wanted to enjoy there, only to be hit by a closed door.

I used to come to this Bar 20 years ago when i was in colleague , since then i always visit this Reggae Bar when im holidyng in Bali. Ja Rasta People lets make this place alive…. Salam Merah Kuning Hijau

Good place to enjoy reggae music. They are closed on Mondays and Tuesdays with a live band on the weekends usually.

An authentic reggae bar with safe quality Balinese arak in drinks menu (no food though). The staff is friendly and if you can hear them over the loud music, willing to suggest you the best order options. Hoping to see some other local beers in menu in future though. In case of events, entrance fee may be 25,000, but we got in for free in low season.

Best Live music Reggae bar in South East Asia. 2 levels. Large dance floor.

Really nice reggae band performing (apparently every monday) on a nice stage in front of cosy dance floor surrounded by cosy lounge areas and a bar with friendly staff. Certain locally looking people seemed a bit suspicious but as long as you keep an eye on your drink, your wallet and your alcohol level, it’s a top notch reggae bar.

I loved it here so much I went back again a few nights later. Great bands, friendly staff, cool atmosphere and the food and drinks were amazing. Highly recommend getting your groove on at this fun place.

Nice place with good and cheap dishes:) everything in reegae climate and music – we recommend this place:)

Your bass guitar is too loud. It’s is after 10:00 at night and you are disturbing the hotel.

Great restaurant to eat, drink and listen to live music. Friendly staff and awesome service. The decor has reggae vibe which match the music that the band were playing.

Good food, nice staff. At night/evening, there is live music. Been there every day for 2 weeks. Feels like home.

Reggae bar, as well visited and popular by local people as tourists. Live music on many evenings. The drinks are good, service as well. The music was very loud and I don’t like it that everyone smokes inside but that’s everywhere on Bali the custom.

I requested No Woman No Cry! The band’s performance is of a high level!

This is a bar with pool table, there is live music arranged by the owner with different artist. Ofcourse all kind of drinks. Beers like 40.000. and you can suggest nice YouTube hits on the television hooked up to a master system banging sound. Friendly staff also 😊😁

Seedy ambience. There’s better elsewhere. We lasted one mid-evening drink here. Not money well spent and although we were the only customers with drink orders at the time, the drinks nevertheless took a long time to prepare. Sadly we stumbled upon an open mic night. This drunk dude decided he was entertaining, only he wasn’t. Staff allowed him to control the mic and consequently everybody’s evening. Beer prices are cheap here and it attracts a low rent crowd. At all times everything about this bar seemed seedy. There are plenty of bars in Bali. Did we really need to stay there? We guzzled our barely alcoholic (but attractively presented) drinks and beat a hasty retreat.

Live music, decent priced beers, and a pool table, what more can you ask for. Update: I gave them a 5 to start with, but they try to overcharge you and claim the prices in the menu is not correct and forced us to pay more so can’t keep the 5 unfortunately… Still a nice place, and great music, so could have been a 4 star but really dislike that they try to rip you off.

Gambling guy punched me hard in the chest and I decided to walk away and not use the pool ball in my hand. Wishing you well bro, I was just trying to start a conversation with you. Wanted to be friends .

Live music is awesome! They take requests and know many songs. Beer prices are decent. Great environment. Glad we stopped at this place 👍

Find this almost a year later but amazing bar

Great little venue for live music. Cheap drinks, friendly staff and very warm welcoming owner. Different style music every night from quality local musicians. Don’t be disuaded by the ordinary appearance from the street…it has a great atmosphere and it’s a safe place for ladies and gents alike. As a single older woman I always feel safe here and the owner always ensures my transport home is arranged…I really appreciate the care of the staff here. Highly recommended for a fun casual night of great music.

A unique little reggae bar was nice to have a shisha here it’s only 70k and it’s not bad for the price 👍 The owner was friendly & polite 😊 Good reggae tunes in different languages may I add we’re jamming away 😎 the interior is outdated & old but nothing to put you off.

I would like to recommend you this wonderful place. It is governed by an incredible family that are completely kind. Cocktails are awesome, delicious and so tasty! Shishas are not really bad! But this is something that I have experienced in Bali as well! The can improve on them! But I really recommend you to order a shisha for 70k, ridiculous price and they re on the average! From the bottom of my soul, I encourage you to come to this local people club instead of going to those foreign beach clubs!

I dont understand the bad comments people made here.. this place is full of great vibe and cheap prices. Staff is very friendly. Come here if you like the reggae vibe!

A super cozy restaurant and bar. Recommended for sheesha in Nusa Penida 🙂

Great live Reggae music! Good Shisha, cool place to stay. Seems to be only place with live music playing till 11pm in this area.

Amazing bar, the only one open late in Nusa at the moment (3am). Owners are really friendly, drinks are good value, the vibe is great and fun and they even let you do karaoke. I love the decorations too. If you’re up for a drink or like reggae music this is the perfect place to go. Can’t wait to go again soon!

I try 2-3 cocktail , and listening great singer soul 👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 if do you like to enjoy sometime

You «MUST» go this bar. Unique and cool interior, awesome music, super cool Boss, and good price drinks are there. I will come back soon😀😍 And you can enjoy his artworks at a gallery very next to the bar.

Incredible evening experience!!! Thanks to the owner and amazing personage with lots of stories to tell !! The price are ridiculously low and the ambiance is cool !!! Out of the crowd so don’t expect lots of people. But expect a good and memorable moment ! Thanks again Buddy

Went by at 8:50pm on Saturday night and it was closed. Perhaps update the hours? Looks like a fun place and would like to visit!

Super fun, amazing service and atmosphere, really cool owner & love the music. Yummy and fairly priced drinks. 10/10 would recommend and will be back tomorrow!!

Friendly bartender, good drinks, good prices😍 Highly recommend If you like a quite night out😊 Drinks as cheap as 40k, and taste good🍹 Large beer 50k😊👍

Really friendly and the owner Is Happy to share his knowledge with you!! Good prices and lovely drink! Positive vibrations and good music!!

Chilled bar and friendly owner. Nice view of the street to watch the world go by. Good fun listening to owner’s music playlist.

I love Rasta Bar. It became my local while staying in Amed. The owner and the staff are so friendly and great to hang out with. Good food and well priced drinks. The arak cocktails are super cheap if you want them but the rum mojitos are a stand out. The local dogs are fun and super friendly for cuddles. The sunloungers are free and the coconuts are fresh and cold ☺️ and the view in the evening is stunning. If you’re lucky the dusk dolphins will put on a show for you 🐬🐬

In fact it’s a nice place! Relaxed at the ugly stone black beach! But we cannot change this! Drinks are ok! Food is max average! And they are the only nice place at the beach! And Amed socks in general! They don’t do anything for the tourist! And here in the Rasta Bar they don’t do music!!!?? Whatfore they are here??? Hahaha!!

Nice place to unwind and have a drink but the food is average. Ordered grill chicken (joint) and got snitzel. Instead of reggae we got French music. The beer was cold at least

Had dinner with friends, half way through my dinner found a cigarette butt in my food. Owner argued that I placed it there. I refused to pay for my meal and didnt. It tasted quite good until then! Service shocking, 10 staff doing nothing!

I spent 4 days in Amed and Rasta Bar was definitely a big part of the great memories from this trip. Always a good vibe, great energy, and a genuinely friendly and smiling team, no matter the time of day. The kind of place you naturally keep coming back to just to enjoy the atmosphere. Thanks to the whole team 🙏 💚💛❤️

Best bar along the beach. Good vibes and comfy seats with cold beer and nice pork satays which the waiter is willing to offer me a change to noodles when I don’t want to have rice. Great initiative!

Rasta Bar provides a great dining experience with its delicious and affordable food. The staff are friendly and contribute to a welcoming atmosphere. The setting is comfortable, making it a pleasant place to relax and enjoy a meal. Overall, it’s a solid choice for a casual and enjoyable dining outing.
