Weekends are for rest, and if you need to escape from the usual hustle and bustle over the weekends, going to a garden-themed cafe might help bring you some respite. The Flower Lounge, set on 340 Trung Nu Vuong Street in Hai Chau District,  Da Nang, is one of the most favourite places for young people.

Originally, the Flower Lounge was a flower shop and opened by Mr Minh, but at the end of June, the shop owner expanded his space for coffee business. The Flower Lounge brings a new concept for a boutique flower shop combined with a café, thereby creating an entirely different experience for customers in Da Nang.

Despite its area covering only 60m², the Flower Lounge is photoworthy even from the outside, with its floral arch and glass shopfront. Indoors, twinkling chandeliers and hanging flower baskets provide a classy yet laidback vibe.

Mr Minh skillfully and harmoniously decorates his café with both fresh and dried flowers in order to create a natural scent, which makes his guests feel relaxed and comfortable while enjoying great coffee and melodious melody of the music.

The dishes and drinks served at the café are aesthetically pleasing, with flowers picked fresh from the florist corner to accompany its gorgeous silverware.

And if you are wondering what to give your loved ones, visiting The Flower Lounge to buy drinks, a bunch of fresh flowers or small dried flowers at reasonable prices is highly recommendable.

Starting from August, the shop will boast larger space, and organise flower arrangement workshop every 2 weeks on Sundays, in a bid to make it more inviting to locals and tourists from both home and abroad.
