Best cafés to work remotely in Da Nang
Six cafés with good Wi-Fi and space to work, plus where to go when you have calls.
In this article
Da Nang is one of the easiest cities in Asia to work from a café. Iced coffee costs $1–2, most places are happy for you to stay a few hours, and fiber internet is good enough for video calls. The catch is that cafés change fast, and a great view doesn't mean a good place to work. These are the spots that work for actual work.
The cafés
1Trinh Coffee
25 Pham Hong Thai, Hai Chau (city center)
A large, open space with several private work areas, and one of the more focused atmospheres in the city. A good pick when you need a few hours of deep work in the center.
2The Circle Coffee
Indochina Riverside Tower, 74 Bach Dang, Hai Chau
Spacious, with private corners for working, in an office tower on the Han River. Common Grounds, in the same building, has meeting rooms and private offices if you need to step up from café to office.
343 Factory Coffee Roaster
Ngo Thi Si, My An (near An Thuong)
One of the city's best-known specialty roasters, with a spacious layout and strong Wi-Fi. It's a short ride from the An Thuong nomad area, so it's easy to fit around a beach morning.
4Wind Garden Coffee
72 Le Manh Trinh, Phuoc My, Son Tra
Open and airy with plenty of outdoor seating and fast Wi-Fi, a few minutes from My Khe Beach. Better for relaxed work sessions than for calls.
5Nia Coffee
3/14 Phan Thanh Tai, Hai Chau
A small café with cozy corners, down an alley in Hai Chau. Best for a couple of hours of solo work rather than a full day.
6Cloud Garden Coffee
100 Nguyen Huu An, Son Tra
Airy, with indoor and outdoor seating. A good change of scene when the city-center cafés get busy.
If you have calls
Cafés are great for focus time but rarely great for calls. For meetings, use a coworking space with call booths and backup power. Da Nang has plenty, with hot desks around $70–100 a month and day passes around $8–15:
- Seaview Coworking in Phuoc My, close to the beach, with sea views from the desks.
- ACE Coworking Space in Bac My An, a popular base for nomads in the An Thuong area.
- Enosta Space on An Nhon 3 in Son Tra.
Tips for working in Da Nang cafés
- Check the Wi-Fi before you settle in. Run a quick speed test on your first drink. Many cafés have great Wi-Fi at the front and weak signal upstairs.
- Bring a power bank. Outlets are often scarce or far from the best seats.
- Plan for the wet season. From September to November, storms can knock out power. Keep a mobile data plan as a backup and save deadline days for a coworking space with a generator.
- Order again every couple of hours. Drinks are cheap, and it keeps you welcome.
