Shady Shack

Almost everyone I know who has been to Shady Shack has amazing things to say about the place, a friend of mine even said she’s tried almost everything on their menu and loved all of it.
Gypsy, the owner welcomed me with a smile that morning and shared her story behind The Shady Shack. She admitted that they’re lucky as the place has been running well since they started two years ago. With the whole dynamic changing in Canggu as it’s turning into more than just a surf destination but also a popular destination for fitness and yoga enthusiasts as the number of gyms and yoga studios has risen in the past few years, their timing was just right.
As most business owners, Gypsy and her business partner Justin also started their business to solve their own problem. When they started living in Canggu in 2013, there were very limited, or no options for places that served healthy foods. They lead healthy lifestyles and in constant need for healthy meals, having had to drive all the way to seminyak got a little too much. Hence, they first started Betelnut in order to give healthier options for themselves and the Canggu surf crowd. Having found out Gypsy is also the owner of Betelnut, I understood why Shady Shack is so popular, as Betelnut on Jalan Batu Bolong has been mine and a lot of my friends’ favorite for years. With its well balanced and healthy food, it’s always been a place to recommend.
After succeeding with Betelnut, Gypsy and Justin were confident enough to branch out with the opening of Shady Shack, serving an even healthier and more vegan option than Betelnut. The menu is loaded with vegan options, from smoothie bowls to a rich selection of healthy desserts. When asked about their customers’ favorites, Gypsy mentioned the halloumi smoothie rice bowl and veggie burger as two of the all time favorites of her customers.
Shady Shack is located on Jl. Tanah Barak, right in the middle of Canggu’s most popular joints, a few minutes walk to Batu Bolong and Echo Beach. Open from 7.30am – 10pm daily, Shady Shack is the perfect place for a post surfing breakfast, lunch or dinner!
