Black Sands Coffee Bar, Sukawati

If you’re looking for a chill spot to grab brunch in Bali, Black Sands Coffee & Eatery is definitely worth checking out! Located on Jl. Ketewel Raya No. 8 in Sukawati, this place has a super relaxed vibe that makes it perfect for unwinding after a long day of exploring. The atmosphere gets a solid 4.5/5, which is pretty impressive!

Now, let’s talk about the food. While the overall rating is a bit mixed at 3.3/5, I gotta say, the Balinese Roasted Chicken is a must-try! It’s juicy and packed with flavor. The Black Sands Fried Rice is another winner, and you can’t go wrong with their Chicken Parmigiana either. And if you’re in the mood for something crispy, their French Fries hit the spot! A lot of folks have raved about how delicious the food is, with one saying, “Delicious! Dinner was great, everything was devoured!”

However, not everything is perfect. Some diners have mentioned that the service could use a little improvement, with a rating of 3.0/5. There were a few hiccups, like a salad arriving warm because it was placed next to a hot pizza. But hey, that’s just a minor detail in the grand scheme of things!

As for the drinks, opinions seem to vary. One visitor noted that the coffee was a bit sour and not very enjoyable, while others found the atmosphere relaxing and perfect for escaping the Bali heat. The outdoor setting is nice, but keep in mind that there’s no non-smoking area, so if that’s a dealbreaker for you, it might be worth considering.

Kid-friendliness is a plus here, especially with options like the Oreo milkshake that kids seem to love. Plus, there’s plenty of free parking available, which is always a bonus when you’re out and about.

In conclusion, while Black Sands Coffee & Eatery has its ups and downs, the delicious food and chill atmosphere make it a spot I’d definitely return to if I find myself in Bali again. So, if you’re in the area, give it a shot and enjoy the laid-back vibe!

First off, let’s talk about the vibe. The atmosphere here is pretty chill, perfect for escaping the Bali heat. One visitor mentioned it was a “sensational place” and they felt lucky to stumble upon it. So, if you’re looking for a cozy spot to relax, this could be your jam!

However, not everything is sunshine and rainbows. A few folks had some hiccups with the service, mentioning that the staff doesn’t speak English very well. One reviewer even said it was tough to communicate when it came time to pay. So, if you’re a tourist, just keep that in mind and maybe brush up on a few basic Indonesian phrases!
