Overview

Traditional Vietnamese coffee is dark-roasted robusta, often roasted with butter and sugar, which is where the burnt-caramel note comes from. The five shops here work differently: they roast their own, name the varietal and the growing region on the board, and pour Italian espresso alongside the phin. Not better. A different thing. If you drink specialty coffee at home, this is where the familiar taste is; if you like it sweet and strong in the Vietnamese way, order the phin rather than a latte.

If you go to one, go to Anh Coffee Roasters at 140 Hoang Hoa Tham. The board runs two lines: a Classic Blend of Vietnamese robusta, and a Seasonal Blend of Ethiopian with Vietnamese arabica, and the cold brew is on Ethiopian or Kenyan beans. Order the espresso tonic. Black coffee 28,000₫, espresso 40,000₫, flat white 60,000₫, oat milk for 5,000₫ more. It opens at 5:30, the earliest in the city, but it is small and loses its seats by mid-morning, and it shuts at 17:30.

The other four answer four different needs. To sit a while or come with a group, Alam Coffee Roastery on the Sinh Trung – Thong Nhat corner: it takes most of a building, with windows on all four sides so it stays cool all day without air conditioning, and it is the only one of the five you can settle into: parking is the one problem. For a takeaway before work, Minimal at 58 Dinh Tien Hoang, open at 6:00. North of the river, Nora at 85 Doan Tran Nghiep is the nearest decent cup, open to 22:00. And inside the tourist quarter there is only Cà phê Xưởng 1925 at 23B Biet Thu, the seating is the pavement under the trees, espresso is 30,000₫, and they keep oat milk, which few places here do.

Check the hours before you set out, because this group closes earlier than the rest of the city: Anh Coffee Roasters at 17:30, Xưởng 1925 at 21:00, Minimal at 21:30. Only Alam and Nora run to 22:00. This is morning and early-afternoon coffee rather than an evening seat. For that, see cafés that stay open late.

140 Hoang Hoa Tham, Nha Trang, Khanh Hoa
4.9★ Google · 694 reviewsOpen 5:30 – 17:3028,000 – 60,000₫
140 Hoang Hoa Tham. If you only get one cup of coffee in Nha Trang, have it here. The board runs two lines: a Classic Blend of Vietnamese robusta, and a Seasonal Blend of Ethiopian with Vietnamese arabica; the cold brew is on Ethiopian or Kenyan beans. Order the espresso tonic. Black coffee 28,000₫, espresso 40,000₫, flat white 60,000₫, oat milk 5,000₫ more. It is small and loses its seats by mid-morning, opening at 5:30 and shutting at 17:30. The earliest at both ends. Avoid the latte and the cà phê sữa: made with a light hand, and thin if you are used to it sweet.

2 Thong Nhat, Nha Trang, Khanh Hoa
4.7★ Google · 630 reviewsOpen 7:00 – 22:00
The Sinh Trung – Thong Nhat corner, walls in deep red, taking up most of a building. This is the largest and airiest of the five: no air conditioning, but windows on all four sides let the sea breeze through and it stays cool all day, with generous natural light and a raw fit-out. The coffee is professionally made, and there is cake and a short brunch list. It is the one roastery where you can sit for hours or study in a group. The flaw everyone meets: parking is tight.

85 Doan Tran Nghiep, north Nha Trang, Khanh Hoa
4.6★ Google · 594 reviewsOpen 6:30 – 22:00
85 Doan Tran Nghiep, and the only roastery north of the river. If you are staying on the Hòn Chồng or Pham Van Dong run, this is the nearest decent cup. A pared-back room, with an air-conditioned space that smells of coffee and an outdoor area. Polite staff, fair prices. Open 6:30–22:00, which also makes it the latest-closing of the five.

58 Dinh Tien Hoang, Nha Trang, Khanh Hoa
4.9★ Google · 504 reviewsOpen 6:00 – 21:30
58 Dinh Tien Hoang, and true to the name: small, tidy, pared back but with character of its own. The coffee is strong and distinctive, the prices ordinary, the service careful, and it opens at 6:00, which makes it a takeaway stop before work, exactly how its regulars use it. Small, so do not plan a long sit with a group. Shuts 21:30.

23B Biet Thu, Nha Trang, Khanh Hoa
4.8★ Google · 325 reviewsOpen 7:00 – 21:0022,000 – 50,000₫
23B Biet Thu, and the only roastery inside the tourist quarter. The other four are all outside it. It is a small shop whose real seating is the pavement under the trees, and sitting there early in the morning watching the street is the best thing about it. Espresso 30,000₫, quick service, and they keep oat milk for cappuccinos, which few places in Nha Trang do. The Aerocano is the unfamiliar one worth trying. There is a bakery next door, and you can bring what you buy across. Shuts 21:00.

Addresses come from each shop's own Google Maps listing, and the Open map button opens that shop's pin rather than running a search. 18 shops on the site have no listing we could confirm, so they have no button: the address lookup returned a different business, and a button that points at the wrong place is worse than none. A Google score appears only when Maps carries both the score and the number of reviews — a bare average cannot be weighed, so this page leaves it out. Street-food stalls change hours and close without telling anyone; call ahead if you are travelling across town.

Frequently asked

How does specialty coffee differ from ordinary phin coffee?

Everyday Vietnamese coffee is dark-roasted robusta, often roasted with butter and sugar. The five shops here roast their own, name the varietal and origin, and pour arabica too. Brighter, less bitter. Anh Coffee Roasters prints the tasting notes on the board: the robusta as "dark chocolate, nutty", the Ethiopian blend as "fruity, low acidity".

Which of them opens late?

None of them. Alam and Nora close at 22:00, Minimal at 21:30, and Anh Coffee Roasters at 17:30. For an evening, see the general café list. One there runs to midnight.
