An Elevated Ubud Bar

Ambar—meaning “sky” in Sanskrit—is a haven for cocktail and gastronomy enthusiasts seeking an elevated sense of discovery among the most refined bars in Ubud.

Adjacent to Mandapa’s Wantilan lobby, Ambar welcomes guests into an elegant open space adorned with warm wooden elements and surrounded by lush greenery. The outdoor wooden deck elevates the experience further, offering sweeping views of Mandapa village’s abundant forest during golden hour. Accommodating up to 60 guests, Ambar celebrates the rich flavors of Bali through the lens of Taru Pramana, the ancient Balinese manuscript documenting the healing properties of plants, roots, and botanicals. It is a destination to explore reimagined creativity through handcrafted cocktails and Japanese-inspired gastronomy.

Ambar’s signature cocktails, crafted with local herbs, roots, barks, and botanicals, draw inspiration from the wisdom of Taru Pramana and Ubud’s long-standing healing traditions. Coconut-aged cocktails served tableside create an immersive ritual, connecting guests with Bali’s natural bounty. An exclusive house-made vermouth infused with native ingredients further reflects the bar’s dedication to craftsmanship, storytelling, and the island’s botanical heritage.
