In recent years, Da Nang has witnessed an increase in the number of coffee shops, bars and restaurants which serve western dishes.  They have emerged as fascinating destinations for both local residents and visitors.

Located on the corner of Bach Dang and Thai Phien streets, the Bamboo2 Bar is very popular, especially with foreigners.  The owner of the bar, Mrs Nguyen Thi Diem, said that her bar was opened 8 years ago and was the first bar in the city to serve western food and beverages.  Thanks to its favourable position, the bar usually attracts around 200 customers at peak times.
