Start with breakfast at Bazar Cafe & Restaurant. It opens at 08:00, making it the perfect quiet spot to begin your day. Enjoy Vietnamese and Mediterranean barbeque in the garden before the tourists arrive.

Hoi An Art Craft Manufacturing Workshop
Walk to the Hoi An Art Craft Manufacturing Workshop. Arrive just before the 10:15 folk music performance to secure a good seat. The workshop is open Tuesday through Sunday.
09:30
Cool down with a cold-brew coffee at Rosie's cafe. It is tucked in a peaceful alley and less acidic than hot coffee. The cafe is open until 19:00, so it is a comfortable mid-morning stop.
11:00
End your afternoon at the Crowd watching viewpoint. Walk west from the anchor to find a spot. Grab a cheap 0.9L beer from Moon Milk and watch the evening crowd gather. This is the best time to soak in the local atmosphere as the day winds down.
Local tip
The folk music at the workshop runs at 10:15 and 15:15. If you miss the morning slot, the afternoon one is also a great way to spend 45 minutes.
