Zipp Bar Restaurant & Bungalows

Fantastic spot for breakfast lunch and dinner. Right on the beach. Live band, great vibe and excellent staff. Infact it was so good we went back about 6 times! Try the bbq it’s very good value for money. Great menu also. Mix of some western and eastern.

We stayed at Zipp for 4 nights and really enjoyed our stay. Keep in mind this is budget style accommodation, so no TV or room safe, but the bed was comfortable, the aircon good, the shower hot and the included breakfast very good. The highlight for us was the restaurant - both staff and food. The seafood was absolutely fresh and delicious, and a great salad bar included if ordering from the bbq menu. Cocktails were delicious and cheap. We ate almost every meal at Zipp and the staff were friendly, helpful and attentive, and sitting on the beach was beautiful. There was good snorkelling and swimming in front of the hotel. Thanks to Ozzy and his staff for helping us have a great holiday. We decided to stay on another 4 nights on the island but unfortunately all rooms at Zipp were full so we moved hotels. We will definitely be back to Zipp.

We had a few meals at this restaurant during our stay. All the staff are amazing and kind. Service is great. Food was delicious. We had the Bbq one night and it was so good and you get a lot of food for a great price. It was beautiful to sit on the beach in the evening and enjoy the views with our meals. Live music was also enjoyable. Definitely more reasonable prices. During the day able to snorkel from the beach.

What a fabulous venu. Went there tonight. Beautiful, really well priced cocktails and delicious food. Right on the beach. An amazing band played. Not sure who they are but they could play and be very well received anywhere. A beautiful waiter. I think his name was Jaan was attentive, kind and very well trained. All in all the best experience we’ve had in Lombok and up there for our travels throughout Asia.

Food was tasty however what we ordered wasn’t what was delivered. Ordered a bbq prawn skewer after speaking to the girl behind the displayed food. Was shown a skewer with 6 prawns and told by the employee it had 6 prawns. When our meal was delivered to the table it only 3 prawns. When I questioned was told the prawns on my skewer were bigger which is why only 3. I couldn’t tell the difference in size between what I got and what was on display that we were shown so feel cheated. I wouldn’t have ordered this had I have known it only had 3 prawns on it. No offer to remedy the issue. The waiter was lovely and very apologetic about it even though it wasn’t his fault. I felt bad for him because it appeared he felt somehow responsible when he had nothing g to do with the transaction. Here in Gili Air for 5 nights and won’t be back.

I have my dinner on the beach ⛱️ come high winds or beautiful warm calm evenings every night at The Zip Bar. The food for the price is fabulous, the cocktails are always made with flare and the staff are excellent. I have never found a single reason why not to keep coming back again and again.

We stayed here for one night whilst moving between Gili islands. The traditional bungalow was absolutely gorgeous. The outside bathroom was clean and bug free (I don't know how they manage that!) A beautifully clean swimming pool, which has been hard to find in Indonesia post covid. Aircon was great, and fridge in the room was useful. The bungalows and pool are located behind the restaurant, and are incredibly peaceful and serene. We felt very relaxed and comfortable here. Most of all Ozzie and Hero and the rest of the team were absolutely fantastic, such genuinely lovely people, they made our brief stay special. Terima Kasih teman teman! 🙏 They are set on perhaps the best bit of beach on Gili Air, and the sunbeds are comfy and the perfect place to spend the day. We loved it here and would highly recommend Zipp bungalows.

Siamo stati alla serata barbecue, ed abbiamo mangiato per la prima volta barracuda: una sorpresa! Davvero buono! Si sceglie il pesce, te lo pesano, cosicché sai quanto spenderei, e poi puoi servirti illimitatamente al buffet, dove trovi pasta,pane, patate,insalate e verdure varie ( tra cui quella ottima di mango). Come dessert abbiamo preso un'ottima banana fritta. Il tavolo era quasi in acqua ..che dire, davvero tutto bene!

wir waren spontan zum abendessen im restaurant zipp bar & restaurant und waren sehr zufrieden. das essen 1x steinofen pizza und 1x bbq war sehr lecker und gut zubereitet. die kellner/staff waren sehr freundlich, hilfsbereit und sehr kompetent. das restaurant hat ein tolles designkonzept und einen direkten standort am strand mit kerzenlicht. wir können das restaurant und die herzliche a**osphäre gerne weiter empfehlen.
