The Slow

You’ll want to take your time at The Slow—and yes, the name says it all. This thoughtfully designed space in Canggu, Bali invites you to pause, breathe, and truly savor every detail—from its striking minimalist architecture to its vibrant and inventive dishes.

The atmosphere

Nestled just a short ride from the beach, The Slow is more than just a restaurant—it’s a lifestyle concept. The interiors are a masterclass in tropical brutalism, balancing concrete textures with warm wood, lush hanging plants, and carefully curated art pieces. Every corner is photogenic, yet the vibe remains cool, grounded, and unpretentious.

A taste of Bali, reimagined

Start with a bottle of T-01 Jamu, a turmeric-based elixir infused with tangerine and roots. Served in sleek, apothecary-style glassware, it’s a refreshing introduction to Bali’s iconic health tonic. Follow it with an invigorating watermelon, cucumber, and mint juice, and you’re officially in island mode.

The Slow’s all-day menu is as inspired as its space. Their mantra, “We serve what we love the most at the moment,” translates to a menu that’s ever-evolving, seasonal, and heartfelt.

Standout dishes

• Chickpea Fritters
  Crispy and golden, served with sweet eggplant relish and mint yogurt—a perfectly balanced bite of crunch, spice, and coolness.
• Garden Greens
  A zesty celebration of freshness. Tossed with a ginger miso dressing, this dish embodies simplicity, letting each ingredient shine.
• Green Tea Noodles
  A must-try for noodle lovers. Chilled for Bali’s never-ending summer, these noodles are delicately coated in ponzu and accompanied by seaweed, cucumber, and edamame. Light, refreshing, and umami-rich.

Beyond the plate

The Slow isn’t just a place to eat—it’s a place to stay, a space to connect. With its boutique hotel concept, guests can immerse themselves in a design-forward environment while being steps away from some of Canggu’s best beaches, cafes, and creative culture.

Whether you’re stopping in for lunch, a curated cocktail, or checking in for a few nights of tropical modernism, The Slow delivers a full sensory experience that fuses food, art, and architecture in a distinctly Balinese way.
