Mini’s Breakfast & Cafe

Beach Side | Breakfast Classics

Mini’s menu leans in to classic breakfast favorites, like waffles, eggs benedict, breakfast burritos, avo toast. Her potato hash is the best in town! This is definitely one of my favorite breakfast spots in town. They offer delicious vegetarian versions, too.

Six on Six

Beach Side

A short breakfast menu, done well. With one exception: I would not order the pancakes here again. However, their egg dishes are quite good, and they serve good coffee, fresh juices and smoothies. My favorite has to be the avo toast with feta.

Hilly’s Cafe & Bakery

Beach Side

One of the disappointments of breakfast in Da Nang is the awful bread. Not so at Hilly’s. In fact, they bake and supply the top breakfast restaurants with fluffy breakfast muffins and sandwich and toast breads. The owner, an Australian who is almost always there when I come in, carefully sources his ingredients.

Hilly’s is down a quiet alley near Six on Six.

Mud Bistro

Beach Side | Vegetarian

They have very few options for breakfast, but they are all good. My go to is their Bravacado: Sauteed shiitake mushrooms, seasoned avocado, vegan feta , cherry tomato and microgreens, served atop sliced toasted baguette. I add an egg (optional). It’s one of my favorite breakfasts in town. 

MZ German Deli

Beach Side | German Sausages, Beer, Bakery

Michael (the “M” in MZ) makes his brats from scratch with his traditional Bavarian recipe. Paired with eggs, bright mustard and a salt crusted pretzel — you’ve got a hearty and delicious start to your day.

Roots 

Beach Side

Vegan café with really delicious smoothie bowls, avo toast and more. 

Bro’s Kafe

Beach Side

This tiny cafe serves good coffee, smoothies, protein shakes and very hearty breakfast sandwiches. They open early and their reasonable prices make breakfast here the best value. Big plus: they use compostable takeout containers and bags. Well done! 

Eggs Benedict, smoothie, latte 147k₫ or $6.30

Bikini Bottom

Beach Side

Generous portions, real maple syrup for pancakes and breakfast that tastes the way you expect it to. You’ll also want to try out their smoothie bowl menu and no-sugar-added fresh pressed juices. The name of the restaurant left me a little skeptical, but I’m glad I gave it a chance. Grand Slam + latte = 190k ₫ or $8.20.

Umm Bahn Mi

Beach Side

Open at 7am with coffee, fresh smoothies and egg & sausage bahn mi sandwiches. A very cute, clean bahn mi restaurant — a great way to start your day. Egg & sausage = 49k ₫ or $2.10.

CookShop

River Side

Skillet breakfasts are delicious here: Full English, omelettes, sausage and bacon, steak and eggs. All the good stuff. The coffee is good and so are the juices and smoothies. 

Full English + Mango Smoothie ₫189k or $8.10
Steak & Eggs + Iced Latte ₫199 or $8.50

Major plus: a proper toilet with ample hand soap and paper towels to dry your hands.

Happy Heart

Windsor Tea House

Beach Side

Sometimes the morning just begs for a proper pot of tea and scone with cream and jam. There’s only one place that will satisfy, and that’s Windsor’s.
