The 16 best spots for crepes in Luang Prabang

Every please read before making your reviews in LAOS!!! I saw many French people are giving bad reviews to this place, then came to see by myself. I have to say that please don't believe on these people's opinions. I have been many cities in France where nobody where able to speak any single word - even they weren't not able to say hello in English - and these people are coming here and complaining about why locals don't speak in English. Believe me Laos people speaks better in English then most of the French people in France. I saw many French youngsters who can't behave properly in Laos, when you are visiting new country try to learn their culture and respect, behave accordingly, if you don't respect ofcourse you will be kicked-out in every single place. Sorry but i must say these after reading all these reviews - which made me to think double before coming here. I'm happy that I came to see by myself. Laos people are learning, improving themselves all the times and it will get better and better. Try to respect for it, most of them are youngsters who wants to build their life. About the bakery - I loved a lot , they have many varieties, prices are very good that locals also can effort to eat. Coffee quality is amazing 😍 cakes are well done as in France. Thank you guys for this great place. Keep going.

Excellent bakery, the pear tarts were fantastic!! Baguette was made with flour and chewy unlike the soft rice flour ones in other places. Indoor and outdoor seating in a quiet end of the heritage area. There’s an import shop inside as well.

An iconic cafe. Great atmosphere with a nice view of the street and the temple. Used my hotel bicycle to get there and parked it just outside the entrance so that I could keep a watch on it - the bicycle did not have a lock. Nice espresso coffee served using tiny and dainty cutlery. The French Toasts (thought the French would call them "English Toasts) tasted great with dollops of accompanying honey. Their baguettes and croissants looked tasty so I packed them up for lunch time eating on the China train I was to take later in the day. Definitely great croissants! The service too was cheery. Glad to have 'been there done that'!

Very dainty French bakery with expertly baked pastry and various meal options. Our matchas were very satisfying. Two humble wishes: Please introduce Lao coffee to the menu Please put crushed ice, not ice cubes, in your cold long drinks.

Visited this place twice during my stay. The goat cheese salad is great! Staffs are very attentive and friendly. It is a good spot to hide from the rain yet soaking in the old town vibe

This place was on our list after reading all the good reviews. When we walked in we were greeted by the polite staff and saw their amazing looking menu. Atmosphere: Good atmosphere. Nice decorations. Service: Generally good service. They were polite and sat us down and gave us complimentary water. There were a few things that they could improve but it's mostly just minor things. For example they could top up the water once it is finished. Also the cutlery they originally gave us was dirty, but they did reconcile it once we brought it up to be fair. Food: My oh my was the food terrible. And we were really hungry also 😫 I originally asked for a french pancake with goat cheese and the waitress informed me that they did not have it. So I asked for her recommendation and she pointed to the paninis. I ordered a Panini with smoked ham, and the waitress came a few moments later to inform me that they did not have smoked ham, only cooked ham and if that was ok, to which I declined. So I ordered a quiche with goat cheese and spinach, and when it arrived I was immediately disappointed with the portion, but then it didn't even matter because I didn't finish it as it was completely tasteless. The person with me ordered a chicken burger which was also pretty tasteless, although not as bad as mine. TL;DR Café looks amazing but the food they serve is terrible, but with good presentation.

This is a centrally located French inspired cafe that serves an assortment of beverages including coffees and teas (both hot and cold) and juices. In addition, it has a nice selection of salads, sandwiches, quiches, pizzas and French pancakes (crepes). The cafe also includes a small shop that sells various products imported from France such as hygienic items, canned goods, biscuits and wines. I had the tuna salad and club sandwich with ham and cheese. They were both fresh and tasty. I had a ginger tea and creamy hot chocolate and both were excellent. The service staff was friendly, efficient and English speaking. There is both indoor and outdoor seating available. This is a perfect place to relax with a coffee, have a pastry and connect with a laptop.

The market is nice and clean. Nobody was forcing me to buy stuff from them. So even if i am just looking they are ok with that. Which is the best thing trust me. Mostly there are crafts and local things you can buy from here. A good place to spend your evenings. Lots of cafes and bars to enjoy dinner

So much to look at. Many beautiful handmade items to buy. Or just for a walk and soak up the atmosphere. The food court had many options. Locd everything about Luang Prabang and the people

Certainly! The Luang Prabang Night Market is one of the highlights of any visit to this charming UNESCO town. Every evening, the main street transforms into a lively and colorful walking street filled with hundreds of stalls selling handcrafted goods, delicious local food, and unique souvenirs. What makes this market special is its laid-back atmosphere and strong focus on local culture. Many of the vendors are artisans from nearby villages, offering beautiful handwoven textiles, traditional wood carvings, and silver jewelry. It’s a great place to find authentic Lao crafts while supporting local communities. The food section is a real treat — tucked away in a side alley, you’ll find an array of affordable and tasty Lao dishes like grilled meats, noodle soups, fresh spring rolls, and tropical fruit smoothies. Everything is cooked fresh, and the variety is impressive. The market is well-organized, clean, and easy to walk through. It’s not overwhelming like some markets in Southeast Asia, which makes the experience more enjoyable. Prices are reasonable, and friendly bargaining is welcomed. Overall, the Luang Prabang Night Market is more than just a place to shop — it’s a vibrant cultural experience. Whether you’re looking for a unique gift, trying street food, or simply enjoying the atmosphere, this market captures the soul of Luang Prabang beautifully. Highly recommended for: ✔️ Cultural lovers ✔️ Foodies ✔️ Anyone who enjoys browsing local markets in a relaxed, friendly setting

Plenty of food options and lots of cute stalls to explore. Some items in the crafts market may feel a bit overpriced, but considering the craftsmanship and effort from local artisans, it feels fair and well worth supporting.

I liked the night market visually, nicely lit and quite long. I would have appreciated the food the most, because the products did not impress me much. T-shirts with elephant outfits and small wallets for documents. But overall a nice atmosphere. Anyone who visits this city should take a walk here

Very lively and there are plenty of stuff to see, buy and eat. The beautiful lighting of a temple. Friendly vendors and they were not pushy!

Great place to wander around. Lots of handicrafts, clothing, souvenirs made from bomb metal, and food options on side streets. Most sellers speak English and Chinese

Cafe Ban Vat Sene is a charming spot in the heart of Luang Prabang, offering a cozy, laid-back atmosphere that’s perfect for relaxing or people-watching. The location is ideal, right on the main street, and the cafe itself has a nice mix of local charm with comfortable seating. The menu includes both Lao and Western dishes, so there’s something for everyone, whether you’re in the mood for a local specialty or a Western comfort dish. While the food is a bit on the pricey side for Luang Prabang, the quality and ambiance make it worth a visit. A great spot to take a break, sip a coffee, and enjoy the surroundings!

Nestled on the quieter end of the market, it has good ambience with decent food. Set menu was just rightly portioned, has a mix of Italian and local food.

Top brunch spot, the Feta and Bacon baguette was incredible. I didn’t realise I was craving it until I’d had it! The crunchy baguette and soft bread rolls were a real treat, as it can be difficult to find the style of bread we’re used to. Only problem is it’s our last day in Luang Prabang so we won’t get to return tomorrow:)

Lovely restaurant with good service. Great for lunch or dinner. You can choose to sit outside, downstairs or in the lovely cool upstairs. Really enjoyed a relaxing lunch. Can recommend the Feta salad.

Laos has the unique taste of French culture infused within the city streets. It permeates in all of the architecture, a large number of tourist and of course all things culinary. We broke away from our routine search of Thai and Laotian this evening and opted to try one of the French bistros along the Sakarine road. We just so happened to stop at Ban Vat Sene and we’re very pleased with our choice. My girlfriend was craving a little something closer to home so she ordered the spaghetti bolognese and a small Neapolitan pizza, and I ordered pho with chicken as well as duck and yellow noodle. All the dishes were prepared and plated beautifully. Everything tasted amazing and felt fresh. We were fortunate enough to have a seat on the walkway itself, enabling us to soak up all the street action while enjoying every bite. The staff and service were top notch and for four dishes and waters, our total was less than 24 dollars Canadian, which I still can’t wrap my head around. It almost feels criminal to eat such high quality at such a low price. Please go support, you will not regret it! To Alex, thank you for seating us and tending to us so graciously. Wishing you all the success in your education and your future. Much love!

We came here a second time after lunch just to try their desserts and baguette. The food is really good but can be pricey for South east Asia. I thought it was worth it just for the food alone. The baguette are freshly baked and insanely delicious, the baguette alone gets 5 stars. Desserts and the garlic baguette were pretty good as well.

Le Cafe Ban Vat Sene is a hidden gem nestled in the heart of Laos (very close to Wat Sensoukharam (Ban Vat Sene temple)), offering a unique twist on Italian cuisine that pleasantly surprises the taste buds. After a long morning exploring the city, we stepped into the cozy ambiance of Le Cafe Ban Vat Sene where we were greeted warmly by the staff and comfortably seated at a table close to the bar/kitchen. Our party of 8, opted for the set menu consisting of our choice of: Salada Oceane: Tuna, Tomatoes, Mushrooms, Onion and Black Olives followed by a choice between Spaghetti a la Carbonara or Lasagne de Boeuf (Beef Lasagna) followed by a choice between Slade de Fruits Frais (fresh fruit salad) or Sorbet au citron vert (lime sorbet). The carbonara dish combined the creamy richness of traditional carbonara with the aromatic flavors of Laotian spices and herbs. The pasta was cooked al dente, and the sauce was velvety smooth, with pieces of crispy pork belly adding a delightful crunch. Overall, dining at Le Cafe Ban Vat Sene was a delightful surprise from the attentive and efficient service to the inviting ambiance and delicious cuisine make it a must-visit for anyone looking to explore the culinary diversity of Laos.

A very relaxing cafe with 2 floors. There's air conditioning at the 2nd floor. The desserts on display all looks so good. We ordered an Iced Latte, Cascara Granola Bar & Carrot Cake. The food & coffee were delicious. Would have loved to try more of their dessert menu. A great cafe to try when in Luang Prabang.

Great coffee in the town! I had ice Americano and it was very refreshing and nice. I bought a bag of coffee beans which was roasted just a week before the purchase and tried on my own espresso machine once I returned to my home. It was so good, I wish I bought more. Highly recommended!

Way too expensive for the quality of the food, We've heard a lot of good things about this restaurant on social media. We were very surprised to see that the prices online and in the restaurant have gone up. I ordered a ceaser salad, which came very small, with bacon, not chicken. My partner also ordered a very small sandwich, and you have to add a supplement for 4 fries. I do not recommend this cafe at all; you can find much better options for less.

Such a lovely place to enjoy a lazy day. Great cider & tea. Carrot cake a bit dry to my taste. Beautiful view watch the boats float by. Highly recommended for the view!

Excellent falafel wrap, pretty cheap for the quality (60 000kip, really generous portion). They have an upstairs room with windows on the Mekong River, nice too study or work or just have a great time. They have a nice terrace on the river as well.

We came here after arriving in Luang by sleeper bus from Hanoi. After a total of 36 hours travel this place was exactly what we needed. We had scrambled eggs on toast which sounds simple but was honestly so delicious. Their homemade sourdough is amazing and the egg was perfectly cooked. We also tried some of their cakes, the carrot cake and banana bread were both lovely. It is also situated by the river and is a lovely place to enjoy a meal.

I might have expected too much because of the good reviews about the carrot cake, but it was just okay. The one with cream was sold out, but they gave me some on the side. The cake itself was a bit dry, and the cream was a firm, barely sweetened whipped cream with almost no flavor. They accept credit cards, which is convenient. Staff were polite, the atmosphere was pleasant, and the cappuccino was good.

We'd previously been to a Joma coffee shop so didn't hesitate to try again. Very consistent standards. I really enjoyed my coffee and lemon meringue pie and a very comfortable environment. Highly recommended.

One of the town's most well-liked cafés. It has a Latin feel about it, both inside and out. A a more cozy second story is available. The pastries are excellent. Both the avocado shake and the brownie I had were delicious. You may use your Thai bank application for payment using QR code scan.

The atmosphere outside looks inviting as well how the pastries look like when you get in. They have wide space on the 2nd floor to dine in but the smell isn’t that good. The price coffee and food are pretty much pricey. I even ordered a large size of hot macchiato but I got a small one or I don’t know if they have a smaller size than that.

Just ordered a Thai tea for take out. Was pretty decent not as the ones you get in Thailand but was good. The staff was pretty fast in making the tea with many people standing in queue.

We only had two bakery items - orange cake and mulberry pie. They were ok not that great. Ambience is nice and so is the service.

Prices here significantly higher, but found the quality disappointing. We had a chicken breast/pesto sandwich. Sandwich was soft, with like the ones you can buy on the street for a quarter of the price. Menu rather Western-oriented. Staff uninterested. You have to queue to order. Good air conditioning, nice decor and relaxed atmosphere. There are better things out there.

I bought lemon tarts, a red velvet cake, but the clerk packed chocolate brownies for me. I didn't find it until I got home. Very bad. Careless clerk

This is a pretty chill bar in Luang Prabang. The decorations are nicely done and give the place a cozy, laid-back vibe. Staff are super friendly and welcoming. Prices are affordable, and the location is perfect—right on the same street as the night market, so it’s easy to find and convenient to stop by after exploring.

We are visiting Luang Prabang from Mexico, and I must say that the Ceviche is exactly what the other reviews describe: amazing, great, delicious, etc etc. Totally recommended. The rest of food in the menu is also delicious, prices very reasonable and the restaurant and location in one of the areas main streets. Last but not least, staff and owners provided a great service.

Perfect for people watching from the terrace. Full bar, friendly servers, and everything our group tried on the menu was enjoyed. The house specialty of ceviche was my favorite. Also the fish in the parchment paper. Very tasty.

I suffered from mild food poisoning here after eating a raw burger that I ordered to be cooked medium. This probably would have been fine if they used good quality beef but given my vomiting the morning after they used cheap beef mince for their burgers and also don’t cook it for long enough.

Good food, cold beer, friendly people, excellent staff, go above and beyond to make sure you enjoy yourself. Highly recommend !!!!!!!

We stopped for a snack and had the red lentil dip which is actually a hummus and it was amazing. We also had the fried chicken appetizer that was so awesome. I figured it would just be regular batter fried chicken and it was except the flavor and texture of the batter was different than anything I’ve had. I can’t wait to go back and try some of the main dishes.

This is a chill place to hang out and watch people go about their business on the main drag. We came here often during our visit to Luang Prabang when we wanted a coke and / or a cool beer. The staff are nice, the decor has a nice vibe, the prices are very reasonable and importantly (as a tourist) we were able to pay with relatively large notes!

Very popular cafe, really lovely decor and styling. Coffee was too dark (even the medium roast) for my taste. Tiramisu was ok. Lots of girls doing photoshoots inside and a great vibe

Very very nice place ! I took a Matcha Latte, one of the best I tasted, same authentic taste as in Japan, high quality, I took it with oat milk and unsweetened, delicious ! The cakes also look delicious, a lot of choice. There is not so much space inside (4 tables). The staff is really nice, speaks good English and Chinese. I would 100% recommend, best matcha in town !

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 Star Definitely will come back for the cakes and drinks. I highly recommend the young coconut cake. Superb stuff and environment here in formula B.

Coconut Frappe is outstanding, but the boss is the mint chocolate cake. One of the best I've ever had!!! Also it has strong AC so it is easily one of the best place to take a break, especially after you completed the Phousi Hill hike

very fast service and surprisingly good matcha which is rare to find in laos, carrot cake has great balance between spice and creamcheese. coffee was okay not the best ive had

Excellent cakes, great variety of coffee combinations with matcha or coconut. Ambiance is cozy and welcoming. Perfect spot to enjoy a little treat in the city.

I love an atmosphere of this cafe that has decorated mixed between a slate board cafe style and an industrial style interior design! So this place is suitable for who likes to take a picture because there has many zones and to be unique each corner, I really enjoyed every moment here so much. Then, the beverage is so good especially the strawberry milk! Strong recommendation.

The staff were kind and adapted the menu to my liking. The food was delicious. Super filling! That pumpkin coconut soup is outstanding.

I had a really delicious meal here. The service was very efficient and friendly. It was great to have some really tasty, succulent steak. I would definitely recommend this place.

We had our NYE dinner here and were absolutely delighted. Exactly the French cuisine you’re looking for. Food and wine were tasteful and the staff was clearly experienced and very friendly.

This is my second time here after 10 year time. I think last time was a bit better. This time, main dishes were average, less sauce than normal French cuisine. But all are good for changing from local laotian food

Very nice restaurant. Specializing in French cuisine. A little expensive compared to other local restaurants, but not when compared to Europe or the US. Food was most excellent! Good selection of items and presentation always perfect. Don't miss the creme brule! Interestingly, the restaurant was very busy at 19:30 on a Friday, but the crowd had disappeared by 20:30.....so if planning an early dinner it might pay to call ahead.

Without exaggeration, the best food and service here. Quick preparation of dishes, despite the fact that the restaurant was almost full. Good wine. Portions are average and less than average. But the taste is excellent. They charge 10% extra for service.

During my first day in Luang Prabang, I heard that one could get good French food in the ancient capital of Laos. And this restaurant was recommended by the residence reception. Quite easy to find in a 1960s colonial building. The architecture and setting was quaint and relaxing. The menu was in English, French and Laotian. We ordered Braised Duck and Mustard Rabbit. Each dish had its delightful points. Overall, it was good, and agreeable with me. The portions were generous. The staff were attentive, sometimes a little over attentive. Overall very positive experience!

This place is okay, we just wanted a couple of smoothie bowls and had been recommended to come here. The service wasn’t great for us, felt like we’d been forgotten about - the owner apologised as he thought we’d already ordered. Then I had to ask again for the water we ordered (not the end of the world!) The smoothie bowls were very nice and pretty filling which is what we needed, also presented nicely.

So tasty and so fresh. I came here three days in a row! The summer rolls and smoothie bowls are heavenly. Definitely worth having a meal or two here!!

Pretty good experience here, the fruit bowl is very refreshing. However, I would say a little more fruit and less yogurt is better. Service is friendly and the staff speak good English. Understandable because this place is crowded with tourist, especially those from the West.

The vegan food was delicious, the staff was friendly and spoke a little bit of English. The prices were very reasonable! Really recommend it!

The berry smoothie bowl never disappoints. Fresh fruit, yogurt, and berries, sweet, refreshing, and fresh in every bite. So good. Highly recommended.

Two Little Birds Caffe felt like it was run by a mad scientist who hates fruit. The drinks? Imagine if someone poured you a thimble of juice, buried it in an iceberg, and then drowned it with fizzy water. Voilà, disappointment in a glass. Calling it “refreshing” would be like calling a hangover “a spiritual awakening.” I just wanted actual juice, not a chemistry experiment. The bowls at least tried to save the day. They looked decent and tasted okay, but some of the promised ingredients clearly got lost on their way from the kitchen to the table. Menu says one thing, bowl says “nah.” It wasn’t bad, but it felt like someone photocopied a salad and gave me the grayscale version. Verdict: you won’t leave angry, but you also won’t leave inspired. 3/5.

Love this little restaurant! I went everyday when I stayed in Luang Prabang. All the food is fresh, tasty and fairly priced. Mostly vegan (just remove eggs if there are). Fast service, plenty of options.

the food and the place is amazing! the portions are really big and the staff is super friendly! we’ve been in luang prabang for 3 days and we came every day to get a drink/dinner/pastry. super recommended not only for local food but for pizza and pasta as well!

We came here as we wanted a nice rooftop/terrace to watch the sunset with a drink. It was perfect - big beerlao for 50k lak, was pretty quiet when we went so got a nice seat with a great view of the sunset, service was good in there, overall had a really nice evening here.

A treasure in the Old Quarter. Dropped in after seeing the beautiful French pastries (including gluten friendly!) on display while walking by. Initially wanted to stop for coffee and a snack, but we ended up ordering some traditional Lao dishes. Menu has a mix of both local and Western cuisine and everything looked tasty. We had the Lao chicken noodle soup and it was amazing. Thai milk tea and seasonal special lychee longan drink were refreshing and not too sweet. Everything was fresh, fragrant, and beautifully presented. Our server Namfon was super lovely. We'll definitely be coming back later for dinner!

Have been here several times. The food, drinks, coffee, cakes, everything is very fresh and delicate. The stuff is friendly, helpfull and offer a fast service. Not to mention it is very clean everywhere. A big recommendation.

October 2025 Only had a blueberry shake and a croissant, and sampled a caramel croissant. Blueberry shake is sensational - prob best from 3 months in LP. Worth the price. Butter croissant is tasty for 45k. Caramel 🥐 comes with thick caramel and Macadamia nuts for 50k. It's superb. Although a lot of the menu is priced higher than other places in LP, that caramel croissant is a bargain.

We dined twice at Indigo Cafe during our stay at Luang Prabang. The location is extremely prime near the Night market and opposite the evening street food market stalls. Indigo cafe gave us a much needed change of taste apart from local food options serving us extremely well made pasta and sandwiches. The croissant at Indigo cafe was amazing and worth a try when you pass by and it's difficult to miss this restaurant in the first place. It's almost like a landmark. Evenings they have a stall outside with baked products some of them at discounted rates which were probably made the previous day and needed to be consumed soon enough. Prices are higher as compared to other restaurants but the service and atmosphere at the restaurant live up to it.

Whilst we were visiting Luang Prabang we came here on a couple of occasions and we had great food and desserts each time. The white chocolate blondie and the dark mint brownies are the best. The only ‘downside’ if you want to call it that is that it is a bit on the expensive side for the area or Laos you are in however you do get what you pay for.

We discovered this café-restaurant with a great Google rating not far from our hotel, and our spontaneous decision to give it a try turned out to be a pleasant surprise. The highlight was definitely their vegetable noodle soup – a must-try. It’s made with all-natural, unprocessed ingredients, and the broth is rich and savoury without being overly salty or loaded with MSG. Their chicken burger was another winner – tasty, generously portioned with a good amount of chicken, and served with fries that weren’t greasy at all. KH Guide & Rating Accessibility: 4/5 – Easily noticeable from the roadside, but parking is limited due to the narrow road. Cleanliness: 3.5/5 Ambience: 4/5 – Cozy setting with Laos charming nature-inspired theme. Despite the lack of air conditioning, you can tell the owner put a lot of effort into the decor. 5 star is possible if AC is available. Food Quality: 4.5/5 Pricing: Reasonable for the area. Attentiveness: 4.5/5 – Staff were responsive and friendly. Would we visit again? Definitely, yes. Strongly recommended.

I love this delightful Cafe with a unique inspirational library above the restaurant. The food is delicious and staff friendly and helpful. Many vegetarian dishes. Good seating areas and pretty garden. Really recommend this place.

OMG the most delicious lunch just occurred at the Big Tree Cafe & Gallery in Luang Prabang, Laos! Was on my way to another AI suggests cafe and mooched by here and my jaw fell open at its wonderfulness! (And if that isn’t a word then is should be or it is now anyway 🤣) The most beautiful arty cafe with schtunning food - I just had the Korean set menu - Bu Dea Kim chi soup set! Mind blowingly good (and I don’t normally like tofu either 🤣) So very beautiful here! Even got a screening room for short films, chess set, gallery, library! Basically I’m in Joshie heaven of and an amazing view over the swollen Mekong too! Perfect spot any day but especially on the edge of a typhoon with lots of rain and flooding! No windy bits here though 😉 @bigtreecafe&gallery @BigTreeGallery #BigTreeCafe #cafe #restaurant #delicious #food #koreanfood #koreanfoodlovers #laos #luangprabang #yummyfood #instafood #instafood #travellingfoodie #followingthewhispers

Had a wonderful dinner here last night. Spring rolls and red curry were wonderful. Fantastic gallery downstairs and upstairs is very worth visiting!!!

We didn’t eat here but were lured by the Gin and Tonic menu & location. Went twice and only reason it wasn’t 3 times was they were closed on our last night. Great vibe, great G & T’s, friendly service and fabulous local photography in the gallery upstairs (available to purchase). Highly recommended

*This review is only for the 2nd floor art gallery! It’s awesome. Just tell someone you want to have a look and they will turn the lights on. Head upstairs and you’ll find a huge collection of photos. The exhibition that I saw was color and black and white and it was fantastic. You can buy prints and flip through pages of available photographs. Great little space to visit if you’re an art lover!

Nice food. I like that the cafe use reusable straw for the juice.

Charming restaurant in a gorgeous space. The service was friendly, albeit a touch overbearing. The food really impressed me, I did the pre fixe menu- portions were appropriate so I was satisfied but not at all stuffed. Great cocktails and wine selection. A must visit in LP!

Nice French restaurant near the centre of Luang Prabang town. Service is really nice and friendly. Nice menu, there’s also a separate menu with some specials. Salade Nicoiçe (starter) is really good. We had the Salmon Wellington as a main. Salmon was great, but puff pastry undercooked. Made a remark about it, but adequate response from the staff.

They have both indoor and outdoor spaces. Lovely and homey atmosphere. Staffs are very friendly and helpful. The buffalo steak was beyond expectations and perfectly cooked. The wine by glass is food too. It’s a must-try restaurant

Great Atmosphere and Service – Perfect for Date Night Amazing service and a lovely environment, highly recommended for a date night. This was my first time trying buffalo meat, which made the experience even more special. The menu was interesting, and the food presentation was beautifully done. However, the taste was just okay, not particularly surprising or memorable. Recommended dish: Buffalo Steak

Visited in May 2025. Laos. Luang Prabang. Drawn in by glowing reviews and a craving for refined European cuisine, we selected this French restaurant in Luang Prabang with high expectations. The establishment boasts a handful of tables on a charming veranda, with indoor seating also available. The décor is described as French-inspired with a touch of Lao chic. FOOD: The menu largely comprises French and European classics, albeit with some dishes seemingly infused with a contemporary Lao twist. The offerings are divided into several sections, encompassing appetizers, salads, main courses, and desserts. We opted for a selection of appetizers and main courses. The vegetable "pie" proved to be a misnomer, consisting simply of boiled vegetables served atop a cheesy cracker. The dish lacked conceptual cohesion and overall integrity. The vegetables themselves were rather bland, and the presentation felt somewhat haphazard. Only the cheesy cracker was deserving of praise. The beetroot salad also presented a perplexing flavor profile. The pickled beetroot and other vegetables lacked any unifying concept, resulting in disparate flavors that failed to coalesce. The beetroot, disappointingly, receded into the background. The appetizer featuring fried potatoes and mushrooms was more successful. The well-browned potatoes with onions formed a classic and satisfying combination. The breaded soft-boiled eggs were also decent, although we would have preferred a runnier yolk to serve as a sauce. The Australian Wagyu ribeye steak, cooked to a commendable medium-rare, was nevertheless lacking in the expected marbling and succulence. While tender, the meat possessed a somewhat bland flavor. (Perhaps this was due to improper defrosting?) The truffle pasta was flavorful, but the truffle aroma was barely perceptible, and the sauce was slightly thicker than ideal, resulting in a somewhat dry pasta dish. SERVICE: The service was adequate, but we anticipated a higher level of attentiveness given the restaurant's purported sophistication. Ultimately, the service was limited to delivering the food and clearing the dirty dishes – upon request. VERDICT: It seemed to us that this restaurant, in its aspirations towards haute cuisine, falls short in consistently delivering high-quality food. Virtually every dish we sampled suffered from notable shortcomings. Considering our extensive experience in dining establishments, we can confidently say that the above-average prices charged here are not justified by the overall culinary experience, and this restaurant is, in our opinion, not worthy of your attention.

An extraordinary dinner. Everything was taken care of down to the smallest detail, with professional and attentive staff and extremely high-quality dishes. A sophisticated and elegant setting. Highly recommended if you want to treat yourself to a high-class culinary experience.

A fantastic dining experience! The food was absolutely delicious, and beautifully presented. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, making it the perfect place to relax and enjoy your meal. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. Reasonable price compared to other restaurants with the same standards. Highly recommended

Strolling around and try the sticky rice, bamboo shot local curry, mixed vegetables salad Luang Prabang recipe is amazing for me. Seeing way of folk life and chit chat to them is such a lovely.

If you want a real taste of local life in Luang Prabang, you’ve got to check out the Morning Market. We went super early—around 7am—and it was the perfect way to jump-start the day. You’ll see everything from fresh produce to surprises you definitely don’t see back home (we spotted some Sapa fish split wide open and even a skinned weasel…wild stuff!).It’s mostly for locals, so you get that authentic vibe—lots of sights, smells, and a few things that will totally throw you off in a good way. We picked up some coffee and wandered the stalls for a while, and honestly, it’s a must if you want to see the real rhythm of Luang Prabang. Just bring your curiosity (and maybe skip breakfast until you get here)!

Must see if you’ve never been to a wet market without the odors of a standard wet market. With cooked food, vegetables, fruit, to freshly caught fish/birds and larvae, this is a great way to see how the locals do their shopping. Oct 2024

Very local market. Interesting to see how the local people shop for food and necessities. It is open dairy. If you have a weak stomach, pass this by.

Loved it!! We went around 6am and it was mostly locals buying fruits and vegetables. There are some prepared foods, and the spring roll we got was SO delicious. Lots of raw meats and fresh produce. Some curries, fried foods, street meat, etc. Overall a big vibe, would recommend.

So may various foods and stuffs here. you can enjoyed with the local market.

Nice market to visit after the Alms ceremony. Fresh fish, meats, fruits, spices, teas and more. A nice walk, nice vibrant atmosphere and then we stopped at a coffee shop and enjoyed the view.

Staff charge you 10,000 kip For 1 USD dollar, check in my account (paid in kip and they charge me in USD) and guy in counter really rude, said was not enough because 9 USD are 90,000kip...no refund possible so I ask again to give me cash, they gave me 90,000 in stead of 150,000k is not about money but really unfair. Ask for manger said no one

Not sure about the hotel but I did go to the club. Has two club areas. Mainly where all the locals go after hours. Overall not too bad

The bug nightclub in LP. The DJ plays mostly local music. I had a lot of fun for what it was. The locals we're having a blast and most people were pretty drunk. I wouldn't go back but I made a few friends and had some laughs. There is no cover and big beers are 25k.

We where only five tourists in the netire club. Go here if you want a local experience! Big big club. Music is really loud though. EDM.

An interesting local Lao Disco hangout to check out, but not much dancing (people kind of wiggle near their tables where they are clustered, drinking) ExtrEMELY loud music (expect full body vibrations - and bring earplugs). Beer Lao is 25 000kip. Be sure to keep your parking chit as they check it when you exit.

Truly local, truly authentic Thanks for my new friend from Luang Prabang bringing me here for a night out. It was a bit too much hanging out in the tourist section of the city. I felt fortunate that a local friend offered to bring to the club that only local people go, far away from the guest houses and villas catered to the vacationers. More people started to show up after 10 p.m. and it became crowded after the singers performed warm-up songs. I never saw so many young people all gathered together in one place in their modern outfits and enjoyed either Laos or western songs. Great lighting, too. Must go if you want to step out of your tourist's conformer zone.

This is local place. I didn't see many foreigners at all. The place that Laos people hangout and it opens late at night too. If you come to Luang Prabang and worry about no place to hangout late then you could come here. Highly recommend!

Afternoon tea at Novelty Cafe is a good spot to waste the hot afternoon and enjoy the day wind away. Coffee is good and when you order the iced versions it comes with their titular Cafe art. We ordered the interestingly looking Swiss baguette which comes with a fresh side salad.

Came here for breakfast. Decided to mix my own menu because I didn't feel like the brunch choices. The almond croissant was the best I probably ever had and the honey yogurth was also delicious. I wouldn't recommend the hot chocolate though even if it looked amazing. Total price around 60.000 Kip, which is really expensive for local standards. Staff was friendly and I totally liked the style, it's a bit of a hipster place to be honest. I came there a second time, craving for that almond croissant again and I tried the most delicious hazelnut latte!

Went there for breakfast and was pleasantly surprised. I got the hash brown nest which had an egg and some bacon, it also came with a salad. Im not used to eating salad for breakfast but i was pleasantly surprised how refreshing it was and it was perfectly dressed too. The coffee was pretty good, not as strong as i like but still pretty good.

Nice quiet spot to work or read for a morning/afternoon. They had a great selection of coffees and juices to enjoy and a lovely snack/breakfast menu. The staff was helpful and very friendly. I would definitely recommend this spot if you would like a more natural atmosphere to relax in since it's open, unlike some of the other cafes.

Great cafe on the main strip. You can hang here for a while, browse large the extension of books on the shelves, and they play great deep house in the background. They have WiFi and outlets at every seat. I had the espresso and it was crafted well using locally sourced beans from the mountains outside of LP.

I love that they reuse their bamboo straws. The open kitchen, the bookstand full of books, the imitated wooden floor, and the chill electronic music makes the place feel like in somebodys living room. We started with a pineapple-apple-carrot-ginger juice which tasted great. We tried the vegan baguette with grilled eggplant, bell pepper, zucchini and hummus. We also had the couscous salad with olive oil. I really loved that I could taste the mint in it. And we shared the creamy pumpkin and carrot soup with homemade coconut milk. My favourite :)

Love the place! Great coffee. You can do book exchange. Porch seat is the best, especially when it rains as it gets really cool & windy.

The drink menu is not variety, but the drip coffee is very good. It is quiet and the view of the hotel in the back is pretty. It is a bit far from the night market, but in December the weather was cool so we could walk.

Super coffee and bakery. Great prices too

Very unique café
