Da Nang cafe, Music Coffee with wood-fired roasting ☕

If you're curious about a local café in Da Nang that roasts its own beans over a wood fire instead of being a franchise, give Music Coffee in Hoa Cuong a try. It's a neighborhood café that roasts Arabica and Cầu Đất beans, grown near Da Lat, over a wood fire.

① What kind of café is it?

Vietnamese coffee is usually made with dark-roasted Robusta mixed with condensed milk, but this place roasts Arabica and Cầu Đất beans over a wood fire, so the aroma is a little more distinct. They do both machine extraction and Vietnamese-style phin drip, so you can choose between a strong phin coffee and a clean machine coffee.

② What would be good to drink?

・Salty Coffee (Cà Phê Muối) — Da Nang-style salt coffee topped with savory salted cream. Its sweet-and-salty balance makes it perfect for first-timers. There's also Salty Bac Xiu, which is Bac Xiu topped with salted cream. ・Bac Xiu (Bạc Xỉu) — A Vietnamese-style milk coffee with plenty of milk, so the coffee flavor is light and smooth. If coffee still feels a bit strong for you, go with this one. ・Phin drip black coffee — A strong, aromatic black coffee brewed with a phin from a blend of wood-fire roasted Arabica and Robusta. ・Machine condensed milk coffee — Condensed milk coffee brewed by machine from wood-fire roasted beans.

If coffee isn't your thing, there are plenty of fresh fruit juices too. They have pineapple, ambarella (Cóc), carrot, fresh orange, fresh lime, and even mango/blueberry yogurt, so even if someone in your group doesn't drink coffee, there's something for them to choose.

③ Good to know before you go

・Payment is cash only. Make sure to bring cash in dong (VND). ・They also sell bottled coffee in 500ml, so it's great for takeaway when heading to your accommodation or the beach. ・Location: 166 Ỷ Lan Nguyên Phi, Hòa Cường, Da Nang. It's not on the My Khe Beach side, but in the city area south of Han Market. 📍 https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=16.04069,108.2129726
