Nha Trang Brunch: Sweet Secret, Cafe Culture, Artisan

For the biggest breakfast, go to Cafe Culture: reviewers call the portions huge and praise the English breakfast, but it closes at 3:30 PM and on Mondays. For a garden setting, pick Artisan, open from 7 AM. For porridge and bowls, pick Sweet Secret.

Nha Trang has plenty of cafes, but few that serve a proper brunch. These three have the strongest recent reviews: Cafe Culture, Artisan Cafe & Eatery and Sweet Secret. They differ in hours more than in quality, and the hours are what trips people up.

Quick picks

• Biggest plate: Cafe Culture, for huge portions and the English breakfast.
• Best setting: Artisan, with greenery and a koi pond at the door.
• Porridge, bowls and cakes: Sweet Secret.
• Open on Monday: only Sweet Secret.

Cafe Culture - the big-plate brunch

Cafe Culture is the one to pick when you are hungry. It sits at 120/25-26 Nguyen Thien Thuat, and the portions are huge, according to at least three October 2026 reviews. The English breakfast is the dish people single out, and the staff are friendly. As of 04/11/2026 it holds 4.8 stars from 1,712 Google reviews.

The catch is the calendar: it opens Tuesday to Saturday from 9 AM to 3:30 PM and is closed Monday and Sunday. That is a short window, so arrive before the lunch crowd rather than at 3 PM.

Good for: a late breakfast with a big appetite, and sharing a plate. Skip if: you want a Sunday or Monday brunch. Open in Google Maps (opens in a new tab)

Artisan Cafe & Eatery - the garden one

Artisan is tucked into an alley at 17/35a, off Hoang Dieu Street. It opens at 7 AM Tuesday to Sunday and runs to 10 PM, so it is the only one of the three that serves both an early breakfast and dinner. At least three recent reviews praise the greenery, and the entrance has a koi pond.

The burgers get their own praise. Two October 2026 reviews report a bill above the menu prices, one giving VND 235,000 on the menu against VND 258,000 on the bill for a burger, so ask whether tax and service are included before you order. A review from 10/10/2026 says dogs, even small ones, are not allowed in.

Good for: a calm morning in the green, an early start, a burger dinner. Skip if: you are bringing a dog. Open in Google Maps (opens in a new tab)

Sweet Secret - porridge, bowls and cakes

Sweet Secret opens every day from 8 AM to 6 PM, at 35/97-35/99 Nguyen Thien Thuat. It is the one with porridge worth ordering, and the prices are low or fair according to at least three October 2026 reviews. The interior and plants get praised too. It has 4.6 stars from 1,628 Google reviews as of 04/11/2026.

Two things to know. The room fills up, and at least three reviews between September and October 2026 report a wait or no free table, so go near opening time. And the smoothie bowl can come with berries still frozen hard, according to at least three reviews; order the porridge instead, or let the bowl sit a few minutes.

Good for: a Monday brunch, porridge, a low bill. Skip if: you cannot wait for a table. Open in Google Maps (opens in a new tab)
