Cafe Pomegranate: Ubud’s Quiet Escape
A Hidden Path to Tranquility
Reaching Cafe Pomegranate isn’t straightforward. Guests describe walking 15 minutes from the main street or riding a scooter along a slender track that winds between fields. Cars won’t make it – part of its charm for those seeking a slow, deliberate arrival.
Views Beyond the Plate
Set in the Subak Sok Wayah area, the café opens onto sweeping 360° scenery: rice fields, mountains, rivers, and sometimes tall weeds in place of grain. Several visitors came just for sunset tea or juice, choosing either regular tables or floor seating to take in the changing light.
Flavors and Portions
Food opinions vary. Rich Indian chicken curry, roti, fresh salads, margherita pizza, chai tea, and iced coffee all find mention. Portions are described as generous given the higher prices, with vegan and gluten-free choices available. Dessert fans point to the chocolate cake as unmissable; critics caution that pizza disappoints and salads can be ordinary.
Service and Setting
Rustic bamboo interiors and even a friendly café cat add warmth. Yet, service can lag. Several guests noted inattentive staff, casual chatter louder than diners, and small ants at tables. Towards evening, the place turns serene – one visitor spotted fireflies over the dark fields, a rare sight in central Ubud.
Practical Arrival Notes
This café is best reached on foot or by motorbike; the path is narrow and partly hidden. A scooter ride or walk through rice field paths is part of the experience, though it means sunset-goers and coffee drinkers should plan their return by daylight.
A thoughtful option for travellers who value unhurried views and gentle ambiance over culinary precision.
