Bali always has another coffee stop to discover. LOMA Coffee in Seseh offers more than an espresso: think an unhurried morning, soft daylight and the atmosphere of a coastal village.
If you want somewhere to start the day quietly, write in your journal or enjoy a carefully prepared cup, LOMA is worth considering for your itinerary.
Why LOMA Coffee Suits Travellers
- A quieter start. Seseh can feel less hectic than central Canggu, making it an appealing place to slow down.
- A starting point for the day. Have coffee before exploring the surrounding village and coast.
- Photogenic details. The clean, warm setting lends itself to travel photographs.
- Relaxed, with a focus on coffee. The appeal is a considered drink rather than an overwhelming menu.
Atmosphere and Setting
Mornings are part of LOMA’s appeal. As the light rises, the space feels bright, with a relaxed pace around the coffee bar. Soft music, quiet conversations and the baristas’ measured rhythm create a setting for a visit without rushing. Arriving early may improve your choice of seats, although the atmosphere varies with the day.

What to Order
- Try an espresso if you enjoy a clear, concentrated coffee.
- Ask about a V60 pour-over if you prefer exploring a more delicate flavour profile.
- A cappuccino or flat white can be a balanced choice to sip slowly.
- Ask which seasonal beans and brewing methods are available that day, and describe your preference for acidity and body.
When to Visit
The original guide suggests three possible windows. Check the café’s current opening hours before relying on them.
- 7–10 a.m.: For morning light and a potentially quieter visit, if the café is open.
- 10 a.m.–2 p.m.: For a conversation or a short work session, subject to the venue’s laptop policy and seat availability.
- Before closing: For a final coffee before continuing towards Seseh Beach. Confirm the last-order time.
Location and Getting to LOMA Coffee
