Kerobokan's Best Nasi Campur: Warung Gloria

2026年6月23日

Nasi campur is basically Bali's local food staple. With warungs (small local eateries) on every corner, picking the right one can feel like a gamble.

That's where Warung Gloria in Kerobokan comes in.

Every time I bring friends or family here, it's the same reaction: "This is the best one yet." It's a place that makes you want to come back.

It's proudly local, but the flavors are gentle and comforting — the kind you crave again and again.

Here's everything that makes it worth the trip.

Authentic local insights from a Japanese woman living in Bali, based on firsthand experience.

TOC

Location & Access

Warung Gloria sits in the Kerobokan area, about 50 minutes by car from the airport.

Surrounded by rice fields, cafés, and homes, it draws far more expats and local Indonesians than tourists.

It opens at 8am, but the full lineup of dishes doesn't really come together until after 11. Lunch is the way to go here, not breakfast.

A Truly Local Atmosphere

The display case holds over 30 dishes at any given time.

There's an auntie behind the counter who dishes everything out — just point at what you want. Add rice, and there's your nasi campur.

What sets Warung Gloria apart is that the dish cases actually circle around the auntie in the middle.

There's so much to choose from it's easy to freeze up, so let me walk you through my favorite picks in the next section!

Right at the entrance, you'll spot a few kinds of kerupuk. Locals tend to snack on these while waiting for their order — not sure why, but it's a whole tradition.

What Exactly Is Kerupuk?

Think of it as Indonesia's answer to a fried rice cracker.

Bags start at around Rp 2,000

The variety is huge — different ingredients, different flavors, all across the board.

Some are made from tapioca flour with shrimp or fish extract, others are just fried pork or beef skin, and some use ground melinjo nuts —

that last one, called emping, is a must-try.

The interior is exactly what you'd picture — proudly local, built for a quick meal and nothing more. Fair warning: I've never used the bathroom, and I don't plan to.

It's basically outdoor seating — let's call it "open-air" to be generous. It sits right on the roadside with plenty of traffic passing by, so honestly, this isn't a linger-and-chat kind of place. Eat well, eat fast, then head to a nearby café if you're after coffee or dessert.

Why This Nasi Campur Is Something Else

Here's what I picked for lunch that day:

Nasi Hijau (rice cooked with pandan leaf and sweet potato)

A veggie-packed omelet

Ayam goreng (fried chicken)

A cucumber and corn salad

Sambal

Honestly, there's so much piled on top that you can't even see the rice anymore lol.

The whole plate came to Rp 27,000

Add an es jeruk (iced orange juice) at Rp 8,000 , and the total comes to Rp 35,000 .

Three side dishes is genuinely plenty. I used to get carried away and pick five, but I could barely finish it.

One thing you have to order: the omelet. It's Warung Gloria's signature dish.

It's a thin omelet loaded with vegetables, pan-fried to order, one at a time.

Pair it with sambal and rice, and it's a match made in heaven.

Ask anyone who keeps coming back, and they'll say the same thing: the sheer variety of vegetable dishes is what keeps them hooked.

Mushrooms simmered in oil, bitter melon salad, green bean salad — no wonder it's such a hit with vegetarians who want to load up on greens.

And there's one more thing I have to mention.

The rice selection here is next-level. Most nasi campur spots give you a choice of two — plain white rice or nasi kuning (turmeric and coconut milk rice) — but Warung Gloria offers six or seven.

Definitely try the nasi merah (red rice). Its slightly dry, fluffy texture pairs beautifully with oilier dishes like the omelet, ayam goreng, and sambal.

Then there's nasi hijau, cooked with pandan leaf and sweet potato.

Pandan leaf has a subtly sweet aroma and shows up all over Indonesian cooking — it's sometimes called "the vanilla of the East." It pairs especially well with spicy dishes.

There's also nasi jagung (rice cooked with corn), nasi hitam (black rice), and nasi uduk (rice cooked with bay leaf, lemongrass, and coconut milk).

Try a few and see which one wins you over.

The Takeaway

So, what do you think? Warung Gloria sits a bit off the tourist trail, but it's an easy stop between Seminyak, Kerobokan, and Canggu — perfect to fold into a day of spa treatments or shopping.

Plenty of people grab their food to go (bungkus) too.

Just a heads-up: it's cash only, no credit cards.
