Eco Life Coffee & Bar
Description
Eco Life Coffee sits outside the tourist crush of the old town, and your wallet will notice the difference. The specialty Vietnamese coffees are the whole point here – coconut coffee, salt coffee, egg coffee (yes, it’s sweet, yes it probably has honey, yes you should still order it).
The owner and Lola behind the counter treat every visitor like a regular, which explains why people keep coming back for their second and third visit in the same trip. Free Vietnamese cookies and hot tea arrive without asking.
