The 7 best bars in Da Lat for 2026: speakeasies, a night-market rooftop and two stage clubs

Maze Bar at 57 Phan Boi Chau also goes by 100 Roofs and, in Vietnamese, Duong Len Trang, the name some drivers know better. The Google Maps profile called Maze Bar lists 8 AM to midnight daily, while another listing for the same building, under the name 100 Roof Bar, says it opens at 8:30 AM, so check before heading over late. Nothing inside is square: walls are sculpted like a cave, statues push out of the plaster, narrow stairs twist without warning and some passages lead nowhere. Keep climbing and you reach a rooftop garden looking out over the town's roofs.

It is not a club, and there is no DJ or music schedule. In the evening, travelers gather in small groups and get lost in the maze together, and some play hide-and-seek for an hour. Ordering something at the counter gives you free run of every level; bring cash. The stairs are steep and tight in places, so wear shoes with grip and take it slowly after dark. It makes a good first stop before a club, or a whole evening for anyone who prefers conversation to loud music.

The Balcony is at 2A Quang Trung, the same street as Da Lat railway station, so any driver can find it; on Google Maps it goes by The Balcony Speakeasy Bar. Its Facebook page still says Ward 10, the name used before July 2025, and the area is now Xuan Huong – Da Lat Ward. It opens from 6 PM, but no closing time is published, so message ahead if you plan a late one. Inside there are two floors plus an outdoor seating area, all carefully decorated, cozy and full of photo corners. The speakeasy label is about the discreet style; no secret door or password is advertised. The Google Maps profile also lists a wheelchair-accessible entrance and seating.

There is no DJ and no dance floor, and the music sits at a level that lets you talk. Reviewers often name individual staff members for their warmth and for taking group photos, and one group even watched the World Cup there in summer 2026. A full menu has not been posted; the focus is on mixed drinks, many made with fruit, and if you need something without a kick or a light bite, ask before you go. It suits couples, small groups and travelers who want a warm place to settle in after the night market. On weekends and holidays, especially if you want the outdoor area, book early.

Gemination Eatery & Bar is at 24 Truong Cong Dinh, on the same backpacker street as B21, and only a short stroll to the market, Hoa Binh quarter or the edge of Xuan Huong Lake. The location page on the venue's website gives 6 PM to 1 AM daily, though other write-ups say it stays open until 2 AM, so check if you plan to stay late. The frontage is warm brown wood, and inside it feels like a small eucalyptus grove, with greenery and soft yellow light. Seating comes in several forms: tucked-away corners for two, stools around the counter for chatting with the bartenders, and big tables for groups, dinners or birthdays.

Its strength is mixed drinks built on local produce. The Village signature set uses artichoke, golden berries, pandan leaf, corn and Cau Dat coffee, the bartenders are happy to make something to match the flavors you describe, and there are options without a kick. The kitchen does European and fusion plates such as soup, pasta, burgers, steak and slow-cooked meat, so you can make a whole dinner of it. Music stays in the background, with occasional acoustic or soft jazz sets but no fixed schedule. Private parties are offered for groups from about 30 guests, including an after-party slot from 11 PM to 2 AM. The main complaint in reviews is prices above the Da Lat norm; the venue recommends booking on weekends and holidays.

B21 is at 68 Truong Cong Dinh, right on the backpacker street and about 500 m from Da Lat Market. It has gone by a few names. On Google Maps it currently appears as B21 Cuisine, and lately the owner has been calling it B21 Sports Bar. Google Maps shows 3 PM to 2 AM every day; some older guides give an earlier close of 1 AM or 1:30 AM, so confirm when you book. The room has a warm, wood-toned European pub look, with indoor tables near the DJ and the screen and outdoor seats facing the street.

Afternoons and early evenings are quiet enough to talk. Things pick up from around 9 or 10 PM, when local DJs switch to dance music and people dance between the tables. A large LED screen and surround sound make B21 the backpacker street's meeting point for big football matches, and tables with a clear view go early on those nights. Plenty of groups hold birthdays here. A few reviews mention items added to the bill by mistake, so check it before paying.

Rain Nightclub, listed on Google Maps as Rain Dalat, is at 01 Le Hong Phong in the center, an easy ride from Da Lat Market. For years it has been a fixture on almost every list of places to go out in the city. Google Maps shows 8 PM to 2 AM all week, though some guides say the doors open at 7 PM. The indoor room is built around a big stage, with LED screens and colored lasers sweeping across it, and soft amber lighting over the tables that feels far warmer than the street outside.

DJs play EDM, Vinahouse and remixes, with hip-hop and house on some nights, and the club now and then books guest singers and DJs or runs games on stage. The room warms up after 10 PM and is busiest on Fridays and Saturdays. Groups who want a good view of the acts should ask for a table by the stage, and reviews often praise how the staff handle group birthdays. Entry is for over-18s only, so carry ID, dress neatly and bring a jacket.

Warm is at 180 Bui Thi Xuan, in the former Ward 2 and now part of Xuan Huong – Da Lat Ward. According to Google Maps, it opens at 8 PM from Monday to Wednesday and at 8:30 PM from Thursday to Sunday, closing at 1:30 AM every night; other sites disagree, so treat the map as the reference. The room wraps two levels around a central stage. Downstairs is close to the stage and the dance floor, while upstairs is more private but still looks straight onto the show. LED lights and lasers are aimed at the stage.

The music is aimed at a young crowd: DJs play EDM, pop, Vinahouse and remixes, with guest singers and performers on dates the club announces on its own channels. It comes up often in 2026 roundups of Da Lat nightlife and tends to fill early, so book the day before for a weekend night. Pick downstairs if you want to dance and upstairs if your group wants its own space. Only guests over 18 are admitted, and security may check ID at the door.

The 9 Sky Rooftop Bar sits on the roof of Da Lat Market, on the side facing the Phu Nu roundabout, as part of Marché Complex, a cluster of grill, hotpot and garden spots up on top of the market. It is the only bar on this list that looks straight down on the night market. Google Maps lists 6 PM to 2 AM daily, though the complex's own Instagram has everything up there starting at 3 PM. The way up is what guests mention most: plenty of people see the lights on the market roof but have to ask a stallholder to find the stairs, so aim to arrive a little early and ask as soon as you reach the market. Opinions on the seating are split, with some calling it roomy and airy and others finding it cramped and cold.

In the evening a singer performs and a DJ plays, at a volume that still allows conversation; weeknights are quieter, which makes it easier to grab a good spot for photos. The menu covers mixed drinks, soft drinks and group combos, and for dinner there are barbecue and hotpot stalls within Marché itself. A few reviews complain about billing and patchy service, so confirm each item and how it is charged before you order. It gets windy up on the roof, so bring a jacket. It works best as the middle of an evening: stroll the night market, climb up for the singer, then move on to Rain or Warm.
