Chill out at the dreamy coffee shops in Da Lat

Look beyond the popular coffee chains like The Coffee House, Phuc Long and Highland Coffee and you will find the real hidden gems in Da Lat. Here are some of the best cafés and coffee shops the city has to offer.


Panorama Coffee Shop

PARANOMA COFFEE SHOP

Among impressively-designed coffee shops in Da Lat, Panorama, a suspended glass house in the sky, is totally worth mentioning. As the name might suggest, this shop certainly provides its guests with a whole view of the surroundings from any corner of the shop. In other words, the shop offers “non-blinded” views for visitor wherever they sit in.


Cung To Chieu


CUNG TO CHIEU CAFE

Cung To Chieu is another interesting café in Da Lat, run by the eccentric 40-year-old Mrs. Giang who has come up with a simple set of rules for guests to follow, do not talk louder than the music, do not turn your feet to others’ faces and dress comfortably but politely. The menu here is simple, yet satisfies the most ardent of coffee enthusiasts. Mrs. Giang also likes to sing romantic and sorrowful stories of her past on the stage.


House of the Youth


HOUSE OF THE YOUTH

Spearheaded by the charming Mr. Luan, House of the Youth (Thời Thanh Xuân) is a quaint little café run by a team dedicated to one social mission, empowering the deaf. The premise of the café is rather unique, you are encouraged to sit in silence and only whisper among your friends. To order, you simply point at an item on the menu.


The teas are made from in-house grown ingredients, the coffee from nearby farms and the desserts homemade. What adds to the uniqueness is that there is no indication of price – the café is run on donations. Make sure to head into the small store full of handmade chocolates, candies, soaps, shampoos, essential oils, tea, coffee, and wooden kitchen tools, all made by the team. Mr. Luan spends his time teaching the team the beauty in making arts and crafts. Any money earned from these will go towards supporting the cause.


An Café


AN CAFE

An means peace in Vietnamese. Lying aside the slope on street 3/2 (February 3rd slope), An Cafe is a great spot for those who love nature and want to find a place to get away, even if just for a moment. Tables and chairs in An Cafe are handmade from wood with delicate designs, and you will find that each table has a small potted plant such as cabbage, basil, mint, etc. It is like a tiny garden, where plants decorate literally everything from the tiny garden outside to shelves, tables and walkways. Even their straws are made of bamboo shoots.


Me Linh Coffee Garden


MÊ LINH CAFE

Me Linh Coffee Garden has some of the best views in Da Lat. On the menu, in addition to your normal coffee drinks, you will find the unique weasel coffee (also known as ca phe chon) which you can enjoy with your full 360-degree view of the coffee farm and Cam Ly Lake in front of you. To get here is a bit of a ride – a 12-mile (20 kilometer) drive from the city center, through Ta Nung mountain pass.
