Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"Amazing brunch experience Delicious food, great coffee and a beautiful atmosphere surrounded by nature. Everything was fresh and nicely presented. The service was friendly and the place feels very relaxing, perfect for a peaceful morning. Definitely one of the best brunch spots we tried in Bali."
"The Banyan Tree was definitely our favourite cafe we visited in Gili Trawangan!! They had so many different food and drink options to choose from, in which you can customise to your taste too! They also offer freshly made pastries and bakes on the counter! The staff were helpful and the food was delicious! It also is a great location on the island just on the sea front with outdoor and indoor seating options. I’d definitely recommend eating here!!"
"I recently had a very positive experience here. During my stay in Gili, I visited several times for breakfast and was always satisfied. Contrary to some of the negative reviews I found the staff to be friendly and accommodating (adjusted my order, for example, adding more vegetables). The breakfast options were varied and of good quality. Prices are on the higher side, this is to be expected given the restaurant’s location right at the jetty and along the main street."
"We really enjoyed the gluten-free lasagna – it was delicious! The portion was quite small though, so I would keep that in mind when ordering. The service was good, and the staff were friendly and welcoming. The bathroom, however, was very disappointing: it was small, not clean, and didn’t match the otherwise nice atmosphere of the restaurant. Still, it’s a lovely spot for a coffee and a quick bite."
"The jackfruit sandwich is a must-try here! It's very delicious, and the portion size is generous. The cafe offers both indoor and outdoor seating, and the prices are affordable. It's my go-to spot to work, although it can be a bit crowded and loud. Well, Gili T isn’t really the best place to work since it’s more of a holiday destination. The service is generally great, but I noticed it was a bit slow during my visit because it was full and the staff were overwhelmed with orders."
"I had the zucchini lasagne and it was . Also, the purple wrap was so good. I've tried the pistachio, dates and nuts and coconut healthy balls and they were very good as well. Restaurant has a very nice atmosphere just needs some banner or anything to gain visibility and marketing that it is a vegan place Luckily when I asked in other restaurants for vegan food, they told me to go here!"
"The review is always for the vegan chocolate cake! Come from Lombok with a big empty cool box to squeeze in as much yumminess as possible - take back to the mainland to savour don't think about it just order it!"
"Came here with my bunch for a night snack after dinner. Not bad! They have some cakes on special price during this hours.. their hot chocolate is good, their cakes is also good.. quite relaxing place on second floor.."
