Ku De Ta
Stylish bar-restaurant complex with 2 bars, restaurant seating indoors and beachside divans to laze on while the DJ spins an eclectic mix of music, new and old. Soft drinks from Rp 20,000, cocktails from Rp 70,000, including bizarre selections like the infamous black pepper and grilled pineapple martini which, for the record, tastes like liquid pineapple candy with a sprinkle of grit. Gets packed at weekends.
The Living Room
Just across the road from Hu'u and a similar bar which attracts a similarly hip clientele. Good cocktails and excellent DJ music. The restaurant is unreliable though.
Red Carpet Champagne Bar
A fairly ritzy bar unsurprisingly specialising in Champagne. Not as expensive as you might imagine, but by no means a place for a cheap drink. Think Moet accompanied by a plate of oysters.
Many of Bali's hippest nightspots are in Seminyak.
Lita Gunardi & The Backyard Lounge
A lounge bar and restaurant attached to the Lita Gunardi boutique. A funky venue in a Jl Kunti location that is rapidly becoming very fashionable. The bar serves good cocktails and the restaurant specialises in Italian food.
Syndicate Club Bali
Late night dance bar with great ocean and beach views.
