Tips for Finding the Right Brunch Spot in Hoi An

• Check opening hours: Many brunch cafés open in the morning and close by mid-afternoon, so check the latest hours before heading out, especially if you prefer a late brunch.
• Look beyond the main streets: Some of Hoi An’s quieter cafés are tucked into small alleys, courtyards and side streets just outside the busiest parts of the Ancient Town.
• Check the menu for dietary options: Vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free dishes are available at many brunch spots, but the range varies between cafés. Check the menu in advance if you have specific dietary needs.
• Consider your preferred style of breakfast: Hoi An has everything from Vietnamese coffee and local dishes to smoothie bowls, sourdough, bagels and Western-style brunch plates, so choose a café based on what you want to eat rather than location alone.
