Dayu’s Warung Ubud: The Gluten-Free Kitchen That Outlasted the Trendy Cafés

In Ubud, health cafés come and go with the trends. Dayu’s Warung does not. This entirely gluten-free kitchen has survived for more than a decade — long based on Jl. Sugriwa in Padangtegal, and now occupying a small building on Jl. Tirta Tawar in Petulu, just north of central Ubud. The place has shrunk; the prices have stayed sensible.

What Makes It Different: A 100% Gluten-Free Kitchen

• Gluten-free throughout: not merely a "GF menu" — the whole kitchen is gluten-free, so the cross-contamination risk is far lower for coeliacs.
• No MSG, fresh ingredients, and portions that reviewers consistently call generous.
• Every diet is covered: vegan, vegetarian and raw options, plus chicken and fish.

What to Order

• Nasi campur: the vegan version is often described as a big plate at around Rp50k; there is also nasi campur be’tutu beruk served in a coconut shell.
• Gluten-free nasi goreng or mie goreng — one of the main reasons people come back.
• Cross-cultural dishes: pumpkin lasagna, black bean burrito, samosas and corn fritters.
• Drinks & snacks: green smoothies, detox blends with no added sugar, cassava chips and raw brownies.

Getting There, Parking and Who It Suits

• Route: Jl. Tirta Tawar, Petulu — roughly a 10-minute drive north of Ubud Palace. The road is narrow: scooter parking is easy, while cars should look for space on the verge.
• Important note: the old Jl. Sugriwa address no longer applies, yet several directories still list it. Double-check your map pin is the current one before setting off.
• Best for: coeliacs, vegans, families and budget travellers tired of Ubud health-café pricing.

Practical Info & Reservations

• Location (Google Maps): View on Google Maps
• Opening hours: generally midday into the evening, around 11.00–21.00; hours shifted after the move, so confirm on the day you visit.
• Price range: roughly Rp45–80k for a main dish — still well below the health cafés in central Ubud.
• Ordering: simply walk in; the warung is small and does not require a reservation. Check GoFood or GrabFood if you would rather take away.
• Social media: search on Instagram

Staying on the northern side of Ubud turns places like this into neighbours rather than day trips — compare Ubud hotel voucher prices on AccessiaPass before you book your room.
