2 Best Nightlife in The Northwest, Vietnam

Raucous and rowdy, this is by far the liveliest nightspot in Sapa. Busy every night of the week, the bar attracts an eclectic crowd that spans backpackers, locals, trekkers, and members of Sapa's small expatriate community. A pool table, sports on the TV, a great selection of music, and generously strong drinks keep the party going until late.

This atmospheric spot is a little out of the way, but worth the journey for its friendly, bohemian vibe. Owned by a Vietnamese artist, the venue has a mellow feel with a soundtrack of laid-back tunes and unlimited ice-cold beer of the usual local varieties along with classic cocktails. There are occasional exhibitions of live music, dance, and even art workshops, so be sure to check their Facebook page for the latest goings-on.
