Pizza in Ubud Above the Valley

Pizza may not be the first thing that comes to mind when planning a trip to Bali. By the fourth day, though, a familiar lunch can be exactly what a group wants, especially when everyone has been trying something different at every meal.

Ubud has plenty of pizza, but pizza served on a terrace above a valley is a different proposition. At CasCades Restaurant & Bar, five pizzas are available during lunch, making them an easy option for a relaxed daytime meal with a view.

There is one practical detail to know before planning around it: pizza is part of the lunch menu, not the dinner menu.

Pizza Is a Lunch Option 

The pizza section appears on the lunch menu and is not available during dinner service.

The same daytime menu also includes sandwiches, wok dishes and lighter pasta options. In the evening, the menu shifts towards dishes from the grill, tempura and a wider seafood selection.

If pizza is the reason for your visit, plan to arrive during lunch service. CasCades opens from 11 AM, so there is plenty of time to settle in for a leisurely meal before the afternoon.

For families, this is particularly useful to know when children have already decided what they want to eat.

Five Pizzas to Choose From

The lunch menu offers five pizza options, giving enough variety for a group without making the choice unnecessarily complicated.

Margherita is the classic option and a natural starting point for anyone who prefers a simple pizza.

Charred Zucchini provides the vegetarian choice, with the charred vegetables adding a different character to the pizza.

Chorizo brings a richer, savoury flavour and is suited to diners who want something more substantial.

Buffalo Chicken takes the menu in a more casual direction and can be a particularly appealing choice for families.

Then there is Custom, which gives diners the flexibility to build a pizza around their preferences. For groups with different tastes, this can make ordering easier.

Why Pizza Works for a Terrace Lunch 

The setting is part of what makes lunch at CasCades different from grabbing a pizza in town.

The open-air terrace looks across the valley, with greenery extending towards the Petanu River below. During the middle of the day, the view provides a backdrop to an informal meal, while later afternoon light can change the character of the landscape.

Pizza also naturally lends itself to sharing. A few different pizzas can sit in the middle of the table, allowing everyone to try more than one without turning lunch into a formal affair.

Building a Casual Lunch Around Pizza

Pizza can easily become the centre of the table, but a few shared dishes can make the meal more varied.

Tomato Bruschetta and the Trio of Dips are two options for starting the meal. Both are marked vegetarian on the menu.

The Korean BBQ Chicken Wings are also available at lunch and make a natural addition for a group looking for something to share alongside the pizzas.

A green salad or shoestring fries can round out the table, depending on whether you want something fresh or something more indulgent.

For larger groups, ordering different pizzas to share can also be a simple way to accommodate different preferences.

What About Gluten-Free Pizza?

There is no gluten-free pizza base listed on the menu.

But CasCades Restaurant & Bar offers gluten-free pasta at lunch on request and subject to availability, but this does not mean that the pizza can be prepared gluten-free. If someone in your group needs to avoid gluten, mention the requirement when booking and ask the restaurant team about the available alternatives.

The Charred Zucchini being vegetarian does not make it gluten-free, so dietary requirements should be checked separately rather than inferred from the dish’s other menu markers.

Where Pizza Fits Into an Ubud Stay

Pizza does not have to compete with Balinese food during a trip to Ubud.

It can simply be the easy meal in the middle of a longer stay, particularly on a day when the itinerary is intentionally light. After several days of exploring, a familiar lunch on a terrace can be just as welcome as another new dish.

For families, couples or groups travelling together, pizza also removes some of the negotiation that can come with choosing lunch for everyone.

Booking Your Pizza Lunch

The important detail is simple: pizza is served during lunch, not dinner.

CasCades Restaurant & Bar opens daily from 11 AM, with the pizza selection available as part of the lunch menu. The open-air terrace overlooks the valley, giving the meal a relaxed setting away from the busier streets of central Ubud.
