Bali's beaches, culture and landscapes already give travellers plenty to explore. For coffee lovers, ST ALi in Pererenan adds another stop: Melbourne-style specialty coffee and brunch in a tropical setting on Jalan Pantai Pererenan.
Address: Jl. Pantai Pererenan No.121, Mengwi, Badung, Bali 80351.
Hours listed in the source guide: daily, 06:00–17:00 WITA. Confirm the latest schedule before visiting. The morning opening makes it a useful breakfast stop before surfing or a relaxed brunch later in the day.
Reservations: the source lists WhatsApp +62 811-3941-6656; confirm current booking details through the venue.
Founded in Melbourne in 2005, ST ALi is associated with Australia's specialty coffee scene, direct trade and in-house roasting. Its Bali outpost brings that approach to Pererenan, alongside a menu developed with chef Daniel “Dobbers” Dobra for an international audience.

Organic curves, terracotta tones and industrial details give the space a warm, modern feel. Indonesian design studio Fivefold designed the interiors, blending bohemian and brutalist influences.
ST ALi Bali is also connected with Further Hotel and its “diffused hotel” concept, which integrates hospitality spaces into the surrounding neighbourhood. The cafe is part of that wider Pererenan lifestyle setting.

Coffee remains the main attraction. Choose classics such as a flat white, cappuccino or long black, or chilled options including iced lattes and cold brew.
The source menu featured these Indonesian single-origin filter coffees and tasting notes:
Other drinks listed included Orthodox Fredo, Coco Mingle, Grape Fizz Cold Brew and Matcha Yuzu Tonic. Some contain coffee despite their creative names; check the menu if you want a caffeine-free option. Availability can change.
The all-day brunch approach associated with ST ALi's Melbourne roots carries through to Bali. Dishes in the source guide included:
The source listed food at approximately Rp75,000–Rp155,000 and coffee or other drinks at Rp35,000–Rp85,000, excluding tax and service. Use these as a planning reference and check the current menu for updated prices.

The original guide lists Wi-Fi, power sockets in some areas, air-conditioned and open-air seating, and a pet-friendly setting. Ask the staff about current pet and laptop policies before settling in.
Laptop use may be limited to certain times or sections. Arrive early and check whether your preferred seat is suitable for a longer work session.
For a quieter visit, arrive before the busier brunch period around 09:00–11:00. Weekends can attract both local and international visitors. An early visit also offers softer natural light for outdoor photos.
Pererenan Beach is a nearby option for extending the morning after breakfast. You can combine coffee with a walk or a beach visit, allowing time for local traffic.
Because the source guide lists a 17:00 closing time, plan coffee before sunset rather than expecting the cafe to remain open afterwards.
