Magnolia Cafe Hoi An
Description
A riverside cafe doing something right with espresso – 20,000 VND for a shot that multiple regulars call the best in town is a claim worth testing. The outdoor tables have river views and the kind of quiet that’s hard to find in the old town. Egg coffee and avocado coconut smoothie are the standout non-espresso options if you’re feeling indecisive.
Highlights

Cons
- English communication can be hit or miss - one visitor ordered oat milk multiple times and still didn't get it, so if dietary specifics matter to you, bring patience or a translation app
- Nothing that rises to a second complaint, which is a good sign for a cafe
