Buffalo Pub

Dong Hoi


This chilled spot with a penchant for natural timber is an amiable and gregarious venue for meeting other travellers over a cold beer. There's a pool table and occasional live music, or you can hijack the sound system with your own portable music device of choice. Upstairs, sleep is a short climb away at the attached hostel.
