Pinstripe Bar

A magical evening. Transported away to a different time and era. Gatsby in the 20’s. Highlight was the three-piece jazz musicians. Great repertoire and they even took requests. Food was perfect with great combinations with local inspirations. So many choices. Great flavours. The meat was so tender. It was everything - the setting, music, food, drinks, staff, chill. We planned to eat and leave, but ended up just sitting and enjoying the atmosphere until 11pm. And I know this may sound weird - but don’t leave before checking out the bathrooms first. ;-)

Dining at Pinstripe felt like stepping into a time machine that transported us straight to the 1920s, perfectly in line with their concept. I was truly impressed by the interior design, the bar was spacious, and there was even a cigar lounge with personalized lockers for alcohol, labeled with the names of well-known people. I ordered the Venison Wellington, which was served directly by the Chef with a special tableside presentation, such a show! It was absolutely delicious, the best I’ve ever had. The venison was incredibly tender and melted in my mouth honestly, nothing else has ever compared. I also tried the Wagyu, which was equally tender, melting effortlessly in the mouth, so smooth it barely needed chewing. Every dish was bursting with flavor. The drinks were also unique and creative, crafted with their own signature style, really impressive. All of this, accompanied by soulful live jazz music, made it such a beautiful evening for me. Without a doubt, I’ll be coming back again!

Such a great venue hidden right in the rice fields… incredible atmosphere! So stylish and jazzzy! Was admired by the live band - my favorite saxophone and grand piano with beautiful vocal..! Took me to Chicago… Thanks a lot for your great service and this exclusive vibe that you bring to Ubud! As a founder of dance show in Bali I enjoyed this cocktail so much 😃🍸💫

10/10 atmosphere, 10/10 cocktails. Super friendly staff helping you with recommendations and suggestions, all while making some absolutely perfect cocktails. They range cocktails based on strongness, fruitiness, so it’s easy to pick one based on your favourite spirit. The only caveat here is that although there is a food menu, even the main dishes are “tasting size”, as they are brought from the fine dining restaurant Aperitif. But even so, the venison wellington is out of this world.

6 star atmosphere!!! One of the highlights of our stay. Pinstripe feels like a hidden speakeasy with moody lighting, luxe interiors, and seriously good drinks. Prices are on the higher side, but totally worth it if you enjoy a cozy cigar lounge feel. The humidor was a cool touch, and the cocktails were expertly made.

Such a beautiful, quiet hidden gem in Ubud. I stumbled upon this place when I was searching up places that did live jazz in Bali, and I made a reservation for a Thursday evening as they only do live music on Thursdays and Fridays. This lovely bar is nestled in Viceroy Bali, and it is an absolutely gorgeous property. On that evening, I was attended to by Chagga and Dewa, who were both incredibly attentive. The staff were all very friendly and it was great making small talk with them. It was lovely meeting them. The service was top-notch, and I was escorted to my seat and then to my car when I was ready to leave. The food was excellent - very fresh and flavourful. Portions are a little on the smaller side since it comes from their fine dining restaurant, Apéritif, next door. But everything was yummy and served promptly. The drinks however, were the star of the show. Each cocktail on their menu has a story and is inspired by an influential figure. I enjoyed hearing about how they conjured up each one, and the drinks themselves were excellent. Live music was on point as well. I wish I could have stayed a bit longer to enjoy but I suppose I’ll just have to come back sometime :) Chagga shared that the live music on Fridays is more akin to proper jazz. To round off the evening, Chagga gave me some free martini shots which were incredibly smooth and strong. Thank you for the spectacular time - I can’t wait to be back!

Some say it’s hard to pin down what takes a cocktail bar from good to great. But I disagree as you only have to step inside Pinstripe Bar to see outstanding in action. It’s apparent in the warm welcome, the professional and assured service. It is on display in the curated cocktail list which are made with the world’s top spirit brands and each with a story behind them. Not only that but the sense of place is at Pinstripe Bar is incredible as it seamlessly combines Balinese hospitality together with a 1930’s speakeasy vibe. All guest need to do is settle in, peruse the menu and let this magical experience begin. Cocktails offer incredible flavour combinations including native Balinese ingredients, they magically transform colour in the glass and appear topped with smoke filled bubbles for impact. This theatre adds another level to the experience of enjoying creative cocktails with the team at Pinstripe Bar. Combined with stunning architecture, outstanding food and the sheer scale of the venue makes Pinstripe Bar a must-visit on visit to Bali.

Really lovely bar in Bali, highly recommend. We made a reservation for the bar (only) and when we showed up, we were the only guests. But that did not make for an awkward evening! The bartenders were lovely, really knowledgeable and fun and we had a great conversation. Later other guests showed up and the vibe was lovely, relaxed and warm. The cocktails are also excellent and made with high-quality spirits so that we did not feel it the next day! And the small food items we ordered from the menu - which includes dinner if you are interested - were also very good. Highly recommend this bar and would be happy to come back!
