Natasha Gan Peloton Vegan heaven in Seminyak – Canggu? This new kid on the block at the corner of Jalan Pantai Berawa is the answer. But hang on, for few carnivores, this little hut will give you a big surprise. With delectable yet scrumptious veggie foods, this will definitely give you another beautiful memory while you’re in Bali. The dishes were well portioned, fresh, and most importantly, tasty. So while we still find it annoying to hear someone brag about being vegan, Peloton’s food is actually worth bragging about. Young owners, Thomas Edwards and Madison Setiaman (partners in life and in business) have created their dream place to be a combination of a vegan
café, an artisan cycling store and an open minded event space, where likeminded people can come and share their ideas, vision and love for healthy and nevertheless tasty food. From the décor (inspired biker’s shop), to the friendliness of the staff, the attention to detail, the 98% plastic free policy and the excellent quality of the food, we feel PELOTON is definitely a strong contender in the Canggu restaurant scene. Jalan Raya Pantai Brawa No. 46 Canggu, Bali www.pelotonsupershop.com
