Eau De Vie (211/77 Nguyen Van Thoai)

This bar is an inspiring labor of love. The owner and his girlfriend are the only staff, living in a small room in the back of the building, which can be hard to find—but is worth the effort. No marketing, it’s all word-of-mouth. With just six seats, they offer warm, friendly service, excellent drinks, and personal attention with loving care. 

United Bar (2 Nguyen Chi Thanh, Hai Chau)

Home to the greatest speakeasy door in Vietnam and a global contender, at least for doorways. Out front is an actual bánh mì stand that appears parked for the night, but opens to reveal a small hidden bar. United makes solid and affordable drinks, including a bánh mì cocktail. It’s become a viral photo op destination, mostly for tourists. 

MAKARA Bar (162a Nguyễn Chí Thanh, Hải Châu)

One of the country's most ambitious bar concepts, MAKARA is the world's first Vietnamese tiki speakeasy—reimagining a tiki bar through Vietnam’s history and culture. Sited in a century-old house, they feature a large menu of locally inspired tropical drinks, along with handcrafted décor showcasing tribal artwork and antiques.

Te Bar (3rd Floor, 39-41 Nguyễn Thái Học, Hải Châu)

The most cosmopolitan cocktail bar in Da Nang when it opened. Sophisticated Hanoian operators successfully brought the big city vibe to Central Vietnam, and Te still exerts a major influence on the local cocktail scene. Host for master classes and guest bartenders from around Vietnam and Asia.

Bunker Da Nang (31 An Thuong 2, Bac My Phu)

An interesting tourist and expat-focused beachside speakeasy inspired by a war-era military bunker, complete with a collection of war relics and a solid array of military-themed cocktails and classics. The bar features a regular lineup of quality live music.

The Craftsman (48 Đ. Phan Tứ, Bắc Mỹ An)

Legendary for its great vibe and consistent admixture of great classic cocktails, excellent service, and quality entertainment. The Craftsman is the pioneer in beachside speakeasies, and still going strong.
