La Playa Cafe

"Absolutely super! Delicious food, great location on water’s edge, friendly staff! Couldn’t ask for any more! We booked a table in advance."

"Had read and heard great things about La Playa Cafe, it’s a fantastic location on the beach and atmosphere is amazingly relaxing. Great selection of food at very reasonable prices. $15 Aud for a rack of pork ribs that were tasted great and falling off the bone, stick to the local food dishes as a they are always amazing. Pizza and pasta were ok but save these for the speciality places. We’ll worth checking La Playa out even if it’s just for a cocktail in the beach"

"This place attracts mainly westerners, both tourists and expats. Great location, nice food and flexible seating options. What sets it apart from many of the others are the staff... lovely girls, lots of humour and very efficient. They work as a team and customers are serviced promptly. Prices are good as well. Backing up this review, it does get busy, particularly for tables overlooking the beach, so get there early or make a reservation"

"We have been to La Playa Cafe a few times now and the quality is very consistent. We can’t say the food is extraordinary, but for the price, it is good value. ​The prices sit right in the middle between the local warungs and the western restaurants in the area. The view is perfect, which is a huge draw. However, the service definitely could be friendlier; a few smiles would be a good addition to the waitress routines. Overall, it is a solid spot."

"Great location, big portions and fair prices. Lovely to sit and enjoy the ocean and the breeze. The only negative was the lack of professionalism of some of the waitstaff. They are not particularly attentive. In fact one of them was trying on shoes that a vendor was selling while waiting on customers. Not a great experience as others were waiting to place orders."

"The food is awesome. Especially the stuffed chicken breast. Atmosphere on the beach is fantastic and Great pricing for what you get. A must go to when you visit Sanur Beach. La Playa is the Best."

"This was my first time visiting and I had a great experience. The place is cozy and comfortable, very different from the busy Seminyak area. It was raining lightly but the atmosphere was still nice. The food was tasty and fresh. Highly recommended for a relaxed meal."

"June 2026: I want to stop in again and do a Instagram review and possibly add them to my Google map itinerary for the area on my Instagram, but I dont know if they have a Instagram? December 2025: Food- 5/5 wide variety of food, literally something for everyone. Price to Portion- 5/5 Affordable Price to location/area- 5/5 good price, Atmosphere- 3/5 great outside seating off the beach, all aeea is covered if raining. Weekend live music. Place is always busy, only negative thing i would say are the smokers and they also do hookah there. Service- 5/5 really nice staff and great service. Would I personally recommend- 4/5 good place to eat at if you're not sure what you want or party wants different things. BUT since being there 3 times and twice I had to eat with a smoker near by Im less likely to go back. To review reader- feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions or interested in group foodie Meet ups. ( see profile picture) To owner- Feel free to reach out with any promotions or deals for a foodie group to come and check out the place. Great place, I would definitely try none smoking for a season to see if it effects profits. it might even help bring star rating up since 4.5 can definitely get up to a 4.7-4.8 . being in a great location with live music you already have no problem getting customer & whole family. I dont think the smokers are your main costume base and reviewers. It might be worth the change since the menu is family friendly and walkers walking by might smell smoke and be drawn away. Not to mention all the runners might not want to stop in cause of the smoke."
