Hidden speakeasy mixing theatrical, smoke-filled cocktails with 90s-glam vibes.
A truly hidden, key-only speakeasy bar in Canggu, The Mailroom had me travelling back to the glitz and glam of the 90s – and I never wanted to leave. Once (or rather, if…) you find the mysterious mailbox containing your key, you’ll be able to open the doors to this sultry lounge. Inside, the most theatrical cocktails steal the show – think foams, smokes, and drinks poured into a miniature bathtub! But they’re not all about the Instagrammable looks. These cocktails are expertly concocted using advanced techniques, rare spirits and house-blend infusions.

3. Black Sand Brewery
Bali’s craft-beer pioneer pouring small-batch brews in a lively beer-garden setting.
From my first sip at Black Sand Brewery in 2019, I knew it was going to be a Canggu icon – and it exceeded my expectations. It has changed the face of beer drinking in Bali by bringing properly-brewed craft beer on tap inspired by beers from faraway lands, like the German Kölsch or Czech Pilsner. Black Sand Brewery also slings its very own craft beers from IPA to lager. They even have quirky brews given a hint of chocolate or Expat. Roasters coffee – plus, plenty of wine and cocktails for everyone.
And with great drinks must come epic food, so the kitchen also sends out bistro-style bites to wash it all down. Think pastas, pizzettas, burgers and steaks. All of this served in a sprawling red-brick space, and an easy-breezy beer garden with a community vibe.

Now open in Canggu, it not only delivers Bali’s finest coffee that’s ideal for a hangover cure, but exceptional cocktails (hellooo top-notch Espresso Martini). I often drop by on a Friday night for a relaxed dinner and after-hours cocktails. Then, I stick around for one of the biggest parties in Canggu.

9. The Shady Pig
Speakeasy lab pushing mixology limits with barrel-aged spirits and experimental serves.
Tucked on a buzzing corner in Berawa, The Shady Pig seems to be hiding in plain sight. Head inside and up the stairs, and you’ll find a moody speakeasy inspired by Birmingham’s daring street scene circa 1920s. I came here early when the bar had just opened for the night. The intimate ambiance, plush sofas, and marbled tables set the perfect tone for a date night in Canggu.
This sipping lounge doubles as a creative laboratory for experimental cocktails, where they distil, infuse, ferment, and even barrel-age their own spirits, tinctures and syrups in-house. I’ve been here a few times and tried almost everything on the menu (guilty as charged!), and as expected, they always delivered.
To start the night smoothly, I’d go for their evening version of Bloody Mary with clarified sun-dried tomato. But I could never say no the Speak Cheesy because, who wouldn’t want wine and cheese in one cocktail? You’ll want to swap and share the tapas too – they complement the cocktails nicely – before finishing with a chocolaty, dessert cocktail. And if you’re up for it, stick around past 10pm when the DJ takes on the deck.
