This hip café would compete with the best in Ho Chi Minh City for both their passion for coffee and quality of arabica beans, which they roast in house—they even have a menu of beans from around the world. Though they do still offer Vietnamese phin filter robusta, this is the place to get your European-style coffee fix.
A beautiful, restful garden café filled with tribal wood carvings, antique gongs, and art installations, this is the place to come for excellent coffee, sweet egg coffee (a Hanoi specialty of whipped egg yolk and coffee), and fruit shakes. The English-speaking owner, Mr. An, is a fountain of knowledge about the local area and can organize multiday treks or tours through nearby ethnic minority villages.
A central location on Long Beach's main strip, an eclectic assortment of recycled furniture and antiques, friendly owners, and terrific Arabica coffee beans from Dalat are more than enough reasons to choose this creatively decorated nook. Look for their mobile cart on the beach behind the café, where they do sunset pop-ups.
This artsy little café fits right into the vibe of the street art alley it inhabits, and the owner-barista Huy crafts each cup of specialty egg coffee (hot coffee whipped with egg yolks, sugar, and condensed milk) with care.
Located a few steps from the beach, this Japanese-inspired café is a great place to refresh with a coffee, matcha, or a drink with house-made rice milk, joined by youth who use the space as a backdrop for kawaii photos. The café rents yukata robes to dress up in.
