[2025 Hoi An Restaurant] Travel Guide for Madam Khanh - The Banh Mi Queen (Updated Jun)

#postandearn Hoi An’s timeless charm isn’t just captured in its ochre-washed walls, lantern-lit evenings, or centuries-old landmarks. For travelers wanting to blend cultural exploration with aesthetic cafe-hopping, Hoi An offers the perfect canvas. From the famed Japanese Covered Bridge to the ornate Tan Ky House and the vibrant Hokkien Assembly Hall, each historical stop can be seamlessly paired with a nearby photogenic café experience. Here’s how to plan your day: Morning: Old Town Stroll & Coffee Kickstart Start your morning near the Japanese Covered Bridge, one of Hoi An’s most iconic landmarks, dating back to the 18th century. The soft morning light is ideal for photography, especially before the tourist crowds arrive. Next Stop: Bill’s Coffee and Tea Just a short walk away, this café is a peaceful retreat with an earthy, organic design. The blend of wooden elements, indoor plants, and warm lighting makes it perfect for Instagram. Be sure to try their excellent Vietnamese egg coffee (cà phê trứng) — smooth, rich, and indulgent. Midday: Culture & Chocolate Head over to Tan Ky House, a preserved merchant’s home showcasing the architectural fusion of Vietnamese, Chinese, and Japanese styles. Then make your way to the Hokkien Assembly Hall, known for its dragon statues and intricate temple art. Break at Maison Marou Not far from the assembly hall, Maison Marou is nestled in a beautifully restored Hoi An-style building. Their specialty chocolate drinks are a real treat — don’t miss the chili cinnamon hot chocolate on cooler or rainy days. For something refreshing, the chocolate ice cream and mousse mug offer a decadent break between heritage stops. The vintage décor and beautifully plated desserts make this a top-tier Instagram post. Afternoon: Courtyards & Cafés As the sun softens in the afternoon, explore the quieter lanes of the Ancient Town or hop on a bike to see some of the town’s quaint corners. Stop by Gióng Cafe This café is a hidden gem for coffee purists. Housed in a charming courtyard-style home, you can choose your preferred Vietnamese beans and brewing style (phin, espresso, pour-over). The leafy courtyard and rustic aesthetic offer endless photography angles. Late Afternoon: Baked Goodies & Sunset End your day with a walk along the Thu Bon River as the golden hour bathes the town in soft light. Before the lanterns start glowing and the night market comes alive: Drop by Em’s Bakery With its golden croissants, airy viennoiseries, and pillowy focaccia, Em’s Bakery is ideal for a cozy break. The warm bakery scent and artfully presented baked goods make it easy to snap a few shots. • Visit major landmarks early to avoid crowds and get best lighting. • Plan café stops near key attractions so you’re never far from a good cup or a photogenic moment. • Most cafés offer a chance to recharge — not just your energy, but your camera and phones! • Hoi An’s compact size makes walking or cycling between sites and cafés

#springitinerary Just a short 30–45 minute car ride from Da Nang (easily reachable via Grab), Hoi An Ancient Town feels like stepping into a living postcard.

Very nice coffee

The Banh Mi (baguette) here is excellent and highly recommended. They have various flavors with different meats and some for vegan. I went with a mixed one to try a little bit of all the meats and it didn’t disappoint. The baguette is warm and matches with the in house made sauce. I would of ordered another one if i didn’t have to reserve stomach space for trying other local delicacies. The price is very affordable too. There isn’t too many sitting spaces so you may have to wait a few minutes for a table.
