Enjoying a warm cup of coffee in a modern café may be commonplace. However, this coffee stall offers the sensation of sipping coffee atop a rice paddy bund, accompanied by the distinctive aroma of post-harvest straw and the cool rural breeze.

It is called Bersanding Kopi. This currently popular coffee stall is located in Subak Bregiding, Pangsan Village, Petang District, Badung Regency, Bali.

When detikBali visited on Saturday (20/6/2026), farmers in the Subak Bregiding rice fields had just completed the harvest season. The remnants of cut rice stalks were still visible, presenting an exotic, quintessentially rural atmosphere. Usually, when the weather is clear, visitors can witness a row of mountains standing majestically on the northern side, from Mount Batukaru to Mount Agung in the distance.

Pangsan Village itself has been designated as a tourism village. Its main appeal is the village’s pristine natural beauty and the continued existence of the traditional Subak irrigation system. Recently, the Subak Bregiding area has become a favourite spot for residents and tourists to cycle and jog in the mornings or afternoons. Seeing this promising potential, Agung Adi and his friends opened a coffee stall in the middle of the rice fields, now known as Bersanding Kopi.

‘Initially, we saw the potential of this place, which is often busy as a cycling and jogging route. Because the atmosphere is so natural, we thought it would be fun to create a hangout spot that blends directly with nature,’ said Bersanding Kopi owner Agung Adi to detikBali on Saturday.

The concept of Bersanding Kopi is very simple. Agung Adi and his colleagues utilise an old Honda C70 motorcycle to sell coffee on the rice paddy bunds. There are no luxurious buildings or concrete walls. Visitors are invited to sit directly on the paddy bunds. Agung Adi has also provided folding chairs and mats so visitors can relax comfortably.

Drinks here start from IDR 10,000. At this very affordable price, visitors get a complete package: a glass of their favourite drink, a gentle breeze, and a peaceful atmosphere to unwind from the hustle and bustle of the city. Agung Adi and his four friends chose to open from 4 p.m. WITA for only three hours, as the location only gets busy during that time. Since its opening day on 4 April, this hangout spot has been immediately crowded with visitors.

‘Pangsan Village actually has something to showcase. We have rice fields, it’s still natural, and there are few permanent buildings here,’ said Gung Adi.

Not only local residents, but visitors to the rice paddy coffee stall also come from various areas such as Denpasar, Tabanan, and Gianyar. One of them is Nanda, who made the trip from Denpasar specifically to experience the peaceful atmosphere. ‘In the city, finding a place like this is rare. I found out about it from social media, so I came here on purpose to try it out and relax,’ said Nanda.

Reva felt the same way. This woman from Denpasar initially came just to have coffee while waiting for the sunset with the rice field backdrop. ‘But unfortunately, it was a bit cloudy,’ said Reva.
