Breakfast in Nusa Penida sets the pace for the whole day. Whether you're heading out to the cliffs, planning a snorkel or taking a slow morning, it helps to start somewhere that doesn't rush you.

Penida Colada is a beachfront restaurant and bar on the north shore of the island, open daily from 8:00 AM. You can have coffee and a proper brunch by the ocean before the day begins, with the Agung volcano across the water.

Why Choose a Beachfront Breakfast in Nusa Penida?

Mornings are the calmer part of an island day. The light is softer, the water is at its stillest, and there's time to sit before the scooters and day-trippers get going. A beachfront breakfast in Nusa Penida gives you the view without needing to plan around it.

It also works as a base for the day. You can eat, plan your route over coffee and head out. Or you can stay: the deck has direct beach access, and you can snorkel from the front stairs.

Breakfast at Penida Colada

Penida Colada sits on the beachfront in Ped, on Nusa Penida's north shore. The brunch menu runs until 4 PM, so there's no need to wake up early to eat well. Service is proper table service, with no ordering by QR code, and free WiFi is available if you want to check ferry times over coffee.

The menu is Modern Australian, International and Indonesian, and it uses seasonal ingredients from local fishermen and farmers. See the full menu for everything on offer.

Coffee, Brunch and a Relaxed Morning by the Beach

Penida Colada is primarily a beachfront restaurant and bar, not a dedicated cafe. That said, if you want a cafe-style morning in Nusa Penida, with coffee, brunch and a slow start beside the sea, it does that well. Nobody hurries you, and the view does much of the work.

When Is the Best Time to Visit for Breakfast?

Penida Colada opens at 8:00 AM every day, which suits you if you want to eat before sightseeing or a beach session. The brunch menu runs until 4 PM, and the mains menu starts at 12 PM, so you can stay on for lunch. From 4 to 6 PM there's sunset happy hour, and live music starts at 7 PM.

Penida Colada closes on significant Balinese ceremonial days, so check ahead if you're planning a special visit.
