Pasar malam, warung streets and what to order

Bali's night markets are local food markets rather than tourist bazaars. Gianyar is the best known, and most of what is worth eating costs a fraction of restaurant prices.

Here is the list of 7 Night Markets in Bali

1. Sanur Night Market, Bali

Sanur Night Market, Bali

Pasar Sindhu, also called Sanur Night Market, sits at the northern end of Jalan Danau Tamblingan and is Sanur's main fresh produce market by day. After sundown the food stalls set up across the front parking area, selling street food, spices and household goods at local prices, while the produce trade carries on under the warehouse hall behind. It is the market Sanur itself shops at rather than one built around visitors.

2. Kuta Night Market

Kuta Night Market

The Kuta Night Market, or Pasar Senggol, sets up on Jalan Blambangan a short walk back from Kuta Beach and Kuta Square. It is a row of food warungs rather than a general market, with nasi campur, satay, grilled fish and babi guling sold at local prices. Because it sits inside the tourist strip, it is the one market here you can walk to after a day on the beach instead of driving to another town.

3. Gianyar Night Market

Gianyar Night Market

The Gianyar Night Market is close to Ubud's city center and is a known stop for those in the know regarding where to get the best street food and places to go for cheap eats. Prepare for an assault on your senses as the multitude of sights, sounds, and smells of innumerable works being clanged, meat being grilled, and veggies being sauteed take over the air.

4. Art Market Kumbasari, Bali

Art Market Kumbasari, Bali
4.4 /5

One of Denpasar’s most enduring and iconic attractions, the Kumbasari Art Market is a one-stop shop for all things handicraft and art-related. Spanning four floors, the Kumbasari Art Market changes as the day progresses. Scenes with early morning markets with fruit vendors abound morph into a bustling hub where tourists walk away with everything from easy-to-find sarongs or keychains to massive sculptures by midday.

5. Badung Market

Badung Market

Located in the center of the provincial capital of Denapasar’s main street, Badung Market is the busiest shopping center in Denpasar and right opposite one of the biggest temples in the city. Sarong vendors, fruit and vegetable hawkers, and butchers all jockey for space in one of Bali’s most established and oldest markets.

6. Taman Sari Market

Taman Sari Market

It is the only market nearby, situated 15 minutes from Seminyak's uber-posh and upscale neighborhood. Pasar Taman Sari Market transforms into a night market once dusk sets in and carts selling bakso (meatball broth) and other classic Indonesian street food fare take over.

7. Garlic Lane

Garlic Lane

Garlic Lane in Bali derives its name from a restaurant on Jalan Sahadewa, a narrow side street branching off Legian's main roads. Spanning 200 meters, this lane offers diverse attractions, including art shops, DVD stores, fashion boutiques, and woodcarving galleries. It is a popular pathway for shopping excursions in Legian, linking the restaurant-filled Jalan Padma with the Merta Nadi Art Market on Jalan Melasti.

Night markets are the cheapest good meal on the island. Temples in Ubud covers the daytime, and beaches near Ubud the coast.

FAQs on Night Markets in Bali

Which night market should I visit in Bali?

Gianyar night market, about twenty minutes east of Ubud, is the best known and the most local. Sanur and Kuta have smaller evening markets that are easier to reach if you are staying on the coast.

What should I eat?

Babi guling, sate lilit, nasi campur and martabak are the staples. Follow the queues rather than the signage, and eat where the food is being cooked in front of you rather than sitting under a lamp.

Are the night markets touristy?

Mostly not, which is the appeal. These are where Balinese families shop and eat, so English is limited and prices are not inflated. Bring small cash; cards are not accepted.

What time do they run?

Generally from around five or six in the evening until ten or eleven. Gianyar starts early and the best dishes sell out by about eight, so go earlier than you would for dinner elsewhere.

Is the food safe?

Generally yes if you eat where it is cooked fresh and busy. Avoid anything that has been sitting out, stick to bottled water, and be more careful with raw sambal if you have a delicate stomach.
