BARS AND NIGHTLIFE

Gili Trawangan has always had the stigma for being the ‘Party Island’ of the three Gilis and there are numerous restaurants and bars open until 2pm along the main strip and the beach, however most kitchens close around 11pm.

There are regular party nights with DJ’s spinning the latest hip hop, dance and house hits, they are rotated so there is only one party a night which can stay open until 4am.

Currently the schedule is Monday night for the famous Blue Marlin rave party, Wednesday nights at the beachfront ‘Shipwrecked Bar’ is the ‘Tir na Nog’ Irish bar party, with a mix of funky house music, Friday night is at Rudys Bar, & Reggae music most nights at Sama Sama

BARS AND RESTAURANTS

This is a selection of my personal favourites,

Ana Café
A great little place to sample local foods, cheap and tasty, try the Nasi Campur.

Blue Marlin Café
A varied international menu during the day and maybe the best grilled sea fish on the island in the evenings, try the salads or grilled trevally in garlic with one of their fresh juices.

Coco Coffee Shop
Now serving a variety of illy coffees, delicious home made cakes and freshly filled baguettes.
Have to try the chocolate brownies or blueberry pie with a cappuccino.

Horizontal
A touch of pure funk has arrived in the form of Horizontal Bar and Lounge and the H rooms, chilled music overlooking the red cushion covered beach. Try the mojitos, Gili island cocktails, Tapas menu and mixed Asian fusion cuisine.

Juku
A laid back Balinese restaurant with your own draped baruga to eat in, serves good Indonesian and Western favourites. Try the chicken cordon bleu with vegetables.

Karma Kayak
Their Tapas restaurant offers a great mix of fresh Spanish Tapas and other small
fusion bites, sandwiches, milksakes and much more. try the Sangrias at sunset..

Kayangan Restaurant
Tucked away this overlooked local warung has all the popular Indonesian favourites.
Try the tempe goreng with morning glory, mie goreng or the cap cay.

Manta Café
Good reasonably priced international foods in a relaxed atmosphere, go and chill out in
one of the hammocks or barugas, or jump in the Manta pool to cool off.
Try the wraps and the yellow sauce curries.

Pesona Indian Restaurant
Truly unique, hookah pipes on the Thai styled beach front with flavored Indian tobaccos, and amazing dishes from all parts of India.

Ryoshi Japanese Restaurant
A must try if you are a Sushi or Teriyaki fan, their fish is flown in daily on ice to ensure freshness and quality. Try the Naso miso soup, chicken teriyaki and tuna carpaccio.

Scallywags
Food from northen Spain’s Basque region made with fresh organic locally sourced ingredients. The Pan seared coral trout w manchego salad and the signature dish such as tempura sardines drizzled with an apple sauce.
