🤫 Da Nang Hidden Bar: The Secret Behind a Banh Mi Stall

Hey LeoSquad! Ever thought you’d find a Da Nang hidden bar tucked behind a humble banh mi stall? Neither did I—until I stumbled upon United Bar, one of the city’s coolest secrets hiding in plain sight. It’s the kind of place you’d walk past without realizing there’s a bar buzzing with laughter and clinking glasses right behind that sizzling banh mi griddle.

United Bar has been around for over nine years, run by a friendly Japanese couple who’ve mastered the art of blending local Vietnamese flavors with Japanese hospitality.😊

When I arrived, their signature banh mi was already sold out (heartbreaking, I know 😭). But instead of sending me off, they surprised me with a free welcome shot—and that’s when I knew I was in for something special.

🍸 Unique Vietnamese Cocktails That You Have Never Tried Before

The first drink I tried was called “Oi Xi Muoi” (yes, that’s really the name). It’s a rum and tonic twist, refreshing and slightly sweet—perfect for Da Nang’s warm nights.

The Oi Xi Muoi, priced at 160K VND (6.5 USD), blends sweet guava with a hint of salted plum — a refreshing, local-inspired twist that perfectly captures the tropical spirit of Da Nang.

Next up: Keo Dau Phong. This one reminded me of a whiskey sour, thanks to the silky texture from the egg white and the depth of the whiskey. Smooth, balanced, and surprisingly addictive.

Each drink, like the Keo Dau Phong costs you 165K VND (6.5 USD) — a fair price for such unique, handcrafted cocktail mixes in Da Nang.

Then came the showstopper—The Banh Mi Shot.
Yes, you read that right. A banh mi-inspired cocktail! It’s infused with coriander, cucumber, lime, and even green chili, capturing the essence of Vietnam’s favorite sandwich in one tiny glass. The taste? Savory, spicy, and oddly comforting.

Go Early for the Banh Mi 🥖
The bar’s famous banh mi sells out fast — sometimes before 8 PM! Come early if you want to try it before it’s gone.

🥰 Why You’ll Love United Bar

Beyond the creative cocktails, it’s the warm, friendly vibe that keeps people coming back. The owner and staffs love chatting with guests, sharing stories, and even recommending their favorite local eats around Da Nang. It feels more like visiting a friend’s home than just another bar.
