Breakfast and brunch in Da Lat: where, when and for how much

A European breakfast in Da Lat runs from 30,000₫ a dish to 235,000 for a plate with sausages, bacon and beans. The local catch is not the price but the clock: breakfast kitchens shut at three or four in the afternoon, and most of the centre goes dark by nine. Here is who serves what, and when to turn up.

The full plate

• The Oliver Cafe, 89a Nguyen Van Troi — full breakfast 215,000₫, three benedicts 185,000–235,000, omelettes and croque monsieur 155,000, sourdough toasties 125,000–145,000. The kitchen runs 07:30–15:00, the cafe itself 07:00–22:00.
• Moto Laurie, 8 Ngo Thi Si — breakfast 195,000–265,000₫, brunch until 16:00: a big English, shakshuka, benedict with salmon and a separate vegan menu. The upper room has full-height windows over the roofs. Closed Mondays.
• The Chimney Bistro, 39/15 Ngo Quyen in Cam Ly — 45,000–215,000₫ a head: eggs your way, pancakes, French toast, their own baking. 07:00–21:00, until 22:00 at weekends.

Breakfast without the tourist markup

• An Cafe, 63Bis Ba Thang Hai — 30,000–55,000₫ a dish: eggs any way, avocado toast, muesli and yoghurt. Open 07:00–22:00, ten minutes from the lake.
• One More Cafe, 77 Hai Ba Trung — 45,000–120,000₫ a head, Australian brunch, burgers and pasta; the third floor is set aside for working.
• Anna's Coffee House, 9B Dong Da — 40,000–120,000₫ a head, mountain view, sockets and 35 Mbit wi-fi.
• Brew and Breakfast, 2 Tran Hung Dao — British, American and Mexican plates in a French villa above the centre, 08:00–21:00. We did not note the prices.

If it is just coffee and pastry

• Croissant in Dalat, 15A Tran Hung Dao — croissants and coffee, 45,000–65,000₫ for a cup or a croissant.
• Blue Dream Bread, 14 Van Hanh — a garden bakery-cafe, cocoa 45,000₫, a long pastry counter. 08:30–22:00.
• Le Pin Dessert & More, 6 Trieu Viet Vuong — a cafe with its own bakery.
• Ori Coffee & Brunch, 11A Dinh Tien Hoang — coffee roasted on site 45,000–70,000₫ and a cake display; they do have a food menu, but we have not seen it.

Late breakfast and night food

• Sleep past three and the breakfast kitchens are shut. Down Under Dalat at 53–55 Ba Thang Hai runs 07:00–22:00: fish and chips, schnitzel, a burger with a drink 130,000₫.
• Primavera, 24 Truong Cong Dinh — pizza and pasta 110,000–150,000₫.
• McDonald's by the central market is open from 8am to midnight — longer than almost any kitchen in the centre.
• The local breakfast is cheaper and earlier: bánh mì xíu mại at 72 Yersin from five in the morning, 10,000–20,000₫.

Prices and hours come from the place cards and from menus photographed on the spot in August 2026; each card carries its own check date.

Options and prices

Blue Dream Bread — a garden bakery with cocoa

14 Van Hanh, Lam Vien · 08:30–22:00

45k₫

$1.70

a cocoa · đã kiểm chứng

A bakery-cafe in a garden: behind a wooden gate under a canopy of vines there is a yard, and at the back a room with a long counter of pastry and desserts. Come for the cocoa and the sweet things, not for the coffee. Inside it is decked out like Christmas, so it also works as a place to sit out the rain.

Cần biết trước. Open 08:30–22:00, phone 0834304050 — the hours and the number are painted on the gate. The cafe has no car parking: the owners ask you to leave the car on Phu Dong Thien Vuong and to follow the odd-even side rule, and say so on a sign by the entrance. Motorbikes stay by the gate.

Cẩn thận. The coffee is robusta only — the lowland bean, not the arabica the hills around Da Lat grow. If you came for the local arabica, pick a cafe that names it.

Moto Laurie — breakfasts and a vegan menu over the city

8 Ngo Thi Sy, Xuan Huong · 08:00–21:00, Mon closed

195–265k₫

$7.50–10.20

a breakfast · đã kiểm chứng

A cafe and bistro on a slope where the view belongs to the room rather than the terrace: upstairs the windows run the full height of the wall, with the roofs and hills behind them, fabric draped across the ceiling and tables lined up along the glass. The kitchen is European: breakfast and brunch until 4pm — a big English breakfast, shakshuka, eggs Benedict with salmon, ham and cheddar toasties. A separate page holds an entirely vegan menu that runs all day: bagels on their own buns with cashew cream cheese and carrot 'bacon', an English breakfast without a single animal product, a Buddha bowl.

Cần biết trước. Breakfast is served 8am–4pm, the vegan menu until 8:30pm, and the cafe closes at 9pm. Coffee comes off an espresso machine: americano 45k, cappuccino, latte and caramel macchiato 65k, egg coffee and affogato 75k₫; soy milk on request. Vegan dishes are 155–235k₫. VAT is included, but paying by card adds a 3.3% bank surcharge — cash works out cheaper. Downstairs there are two rooms, the homely one with checked tablecloths and another with the coffee sideboard, and outside there are tables under an awning and a large umbrella with the same panorama.

Cẩn thận. Closed on Mondays — the one day not to make the trip. Eggs Benedict with salmon are 265k₫: that is a restaurant bill, not the price of breakfast at the cafe next door.

European breakfast and its own pastries: eggs your way, pancakes, French toast, croissants. Italian and Vietnamese coffee, ice cream.

Cần biết trước. Meals are served in the alley off Ngo Quyen: the address is 39/15, deep in hem 39 — worth showing the driver in Vietnamese. Weekdays 07:00–21:00, weekends until 22:00. The full menu is in the photos below, taken 5 August 2026: pastries 79–125k₫, breakfasts 79–215k₫, coffee 45–95k₫, ice cream 75–85k₫.

a breakfast · đã kiểm chứng

A cafe that serves a proper European breakfast: sourdough toasties with avocado, salmon, prosciutto and halloumi, three kinds of eggs benedict, a full English with sausages, bacon, baked beans and hash brown, omelettes and croque monsieur. The building is green, with a striped awning and the name across the whole wall; inside, the ceiling is painted as a European street of brasseries and tiled roofs, the seats are striped, the bar holds an espresso machine and a juicer, and upstairs there is a glazed veranda with palms and a view over the roofs. Coffee comes both the Vietnamese way and off the machine, right down to a flat white and a yuzu espresso tonic.

Cần biết trước. The breakfast kitchen runs from 07:30 to 15:00; the cafe itself is open from 7am to 10pm. Prices from the menu, in thousands of ₫, VAT included. Platters: full breakfast 215, Trio Benedict 235, Ocean Benedict with croissant and salmon 225, croissant benedict 185, pastrami sandwich 185, savoury waffle 185, Greenie Brekkie 175, omelettes and croque monsieur 155 each, breakfast roll 135, the Oliver's Delight salad 135. Sourdough toasties: prawn and avocado, the Nordic with smoked salmon, and salmon with poached egg are 145 each; the other nine are 125. Sweet plates — French toast, waffle, fruit cut — run 115–155. Extras: smoked salmon 115, prosciutto 65, scrambled eggs 65, bacon or sausage 55 each, eggs, halloumi, avocado, mushrooms, hash brown and baked beans 45 each.
