Seminyak
Seminyak runs on good coffee and long brunches. These are the cafés we rate — for the espresso, the brunch and the ones you can actually work from.
Specialty coffee and all-day brunch — some better for a laptop, some just for a slow start.

The specialty roasters and espresso bars we tag here — look for house-roasted beans and a proper brew bar rather than a hotel breakfast counter.
