Bars in Sapa

Considering the number of travellers to Sapa, organised entertainment is relatively scarce and the bar scene slow. For most, an evening out is the guesthouse balcony, particularly if the fog rolls in.

Bamboo Bar (Green Bamboo Hotel; Cau May street)
The first Western-style watering hole to open in Sapa and it's still going strong in the basement of a grand building. The biggest bar in Sapa, offering traditional minority music, dancing and festivals from 5 different ethnic groups in Sapa. The very hill tribal boys & girls from villages throughout Sapa perform all shows. That's why Bamboo Bar is the only place where you can have chance to enjoy the real minority cultural colors.
- Opening: on every Friday and Saturday night from 8:30 PM to 10:00 PM
(on other days if there is a request)
- Free entrance fee.
- You can take part in traditional dancing (in Bamboo dancing) with young minority people

Red Dragon Pub (Tel: 872 085; 23 Muong Hoa street)
They knock out a serious range of beers, as any good pub should, including ginseng flavour. Don't be put off by the quaint tearoom downstairs, as upstairs is a little drinking den of a Brit-style pub that fills up most evenings. Befitting a respectable pub, there is a serious range of beers and some good pub grub. The tearoom downstairs is a good stop for bangers and mash or herbal teas during the day.

Tau Bar (Tel: 871 322; 42 Cau May street)
Claiming to be 'slightly lounge', Tau brings a different kind of cool to the mountains of the north. A lengthy bar to lean on, great tunes and a pool table suggest this place will prosper.Tau Bar is the great place to hang out with friends and have some drinks while travelling to Sapa in Vietnam.
