Nightlife in Vietnam

Gathering at coffee shops, singing karaoke, going out to eat, drinking some beer, or driving around city are common nightlife activities. Besides that, Vietnam-Saigon city is filled with bars, and clubs. These places almost carter to Vietnamese from 16 to 35 years old. There are all kinds of bars and clubs in the city depending what level you are from some cheap places for students or low class to really expensive places for celebrities, beautiful ladies or high class people. But in general, Vietnamese can spend their time to have fun with their friends every single night of a week no matter it is a weekday or weekend. They love to socialize, meet friends and built relationships.

Below are some of beautiful places for nightlife in Vietnam

Vietnamese Beer

There is no drinking age in Vietnam. Alcohol and liquor are sold widely and not limited to only liquor stores......yeahhhh.....=D. Draught beer is the most popular beverage throughout the country. 

So, it is normal if you see people in Vietnam can drink at any age and at any time during the weekdays. Most male beer consumers drink it at least 4-5 times a week. 

And it’s really normal if you see a 6 year old boy buying a bottle of beer or wine for his father staying at home. 

It is all Vietnamese drinking culture. 

Whenever you pass by a restaurant or a street side food vendor, you will see people clinking their beer glasses and shouting “100%” or “bottoms up” all the time, no matter whether it is morning, noon or evening during weekdays in Vietnam. 

After “bottoms up”, everyone has to refill his glass at the same time. That’s why they always check everybody’s glass to make sure everyone drinking the same amount. 

It is common to see a group of four or five people with lots empty bottles on their table

A 4 years old girl is clinking her shot with her grandfather and her uncle :)

Soooo, another thing for you to add in to-do list in Vietnam is drinking BEER on the street anytime you want :)

Vietnamese Coffee Shop

There are probably hundred thousands of coffee shops in Vietnam, so it is easy to find a coffee shop on any given block in the city. Coffee shop in Vietnam is not only a place to stop for a drink but also a warm space for those who want to find the silence and relaxation in mind. 

Each coffee shop has a different style but all of them bring guests the comfortable feeling and the silence that attracts a lot of people by the fresh air and close to nature after a working day. Old people love coffee shop which has been around a long time, located on quiet streets while officers like coffee shop with romantic and quiet styles. Young people prefer the noisy and busy atmosphere of modern and luxury, or pavement with loud music while teenagers look for cute, colorful decorations to take pictures. So, different age looks for a different space and style for a coffee shop. 

Here are some of my favorite coffee shops in Vietnam

MORE, MORE and hundreds MORE.......

We usually say “GO FOR COFFEE”, but ladies always drink Juice, ice-cream or smoothies when they are there…. but still “COFFEE TIME”....

Coffee shops in Vietnam are much larger and more comfortable than America because people come to seek for relaxing and socializing. Unlike American, they come to get their coffee to go or stay for one hour while Vietnamese can mostly stay 3 or 4 hours or even more. Every morning or evening, citizens spend a few hours lingering over one coffee or fruit drink. The real reason for going to coffee shops is they love to socialize. No matter weekday or weekend, the coffee shops are always full of people; however, college students and part-time employees are the most popular customers in the morning since they have flexible schedule. Weekend is the busiest times for all coffee shops with crowded groups of people.

When the Vietnamese go to have coffee, it is easy to see them in a group of a family or friends. They love to meet each other, to gossip, to talk about everything. Therefore, it’s rarely for you to see alone person in these shops. They’d rather stay at home than staying there by themselves unless no power or no Wi-Fi access at home :)

Besides these beautiful coffee shops above, many people enjoy sitting outside on the pavement to see people pass by...

Each coffee shop will bring a different atmosphere to make your day more beautiful....!!!
