Top 3 crispy banana fritter (bánh chuối chiên) spots in Da Nang
Translated from Vietnamese
1/3
Bánh chuối chiên is Da Nang's everyday street snack — golden and crackling on the outside, soft and sweet with banana inside. Walk any street and you'll catch the smell of one frying. At just 5,000 – 10,000đ apiece, and with some shops adding toasted sesame, shredded coconut or cheese, it's the easiest treat in the city to fall for. Here are the three spots worth going out of your way for.
🥇 Banana Is Chuối – 89 Phan Thanh
The best-known banana fritter brand in Da Nang. Prices run a touch above the going rate, but the quality more than makes up for it: each fritter wears a thin coat of black sesame that turns beautifully fragrant in the fryer, and the kitchen's secret is honey, which gives the batter its rich colour and clean sweetness. They come boxed up nicely too, which makes them an easy gift to bring along.
📍 89 Phan Thanh, Thanh Khê, Da Nang · 🕐 13:00 – 21:00
🥈 Cô Út's Fried Banana Cakes – 4 Phạm Thiều
Here the bananas are pressed thin and double-fried in batter, giving a shatteringly crisp shell, then finished with fragrant black sesame. The fritters puff up into perfect rounds — and best of all, they stay crisp for three to four hours, so a takeaway bag tastes just as good as one straight from the pan.
📍 4 Phạm Thiều, An Hải Bắc, Sơn Trà, Da Nang · 🕐 13:00 – 19:00
🥉 Fried Banana Cake Võ Văn Tần – 68 Võ Văn Tần
Just a pushcart on the pavement, yet it has become a name of its own in Thanh Khê. Alongside the banana fritters you'll find fried dough balls, fried buns and sweet potato fritters — all tasty, spotlessly kept and very easy on the wallet. Swing by on your way home in the late afternoon and eat them hot.
📍 68 Võ Văn Tần, Chính Gián, Thanh Khê, Da Nang · 🕐 15:00 – 19:00
