Jelly BrewPub
Jelly BrewPub operates at 46 Hung Vuong as a casual dive bar that doubles as a dive shop, organizing scuba excursions and pulling the local diving crowd as its primary social anchor. The setup includes a casual bar area, outdoor garden seating, and the dive shop operation that runs trips to nearby reefs and islands. The food menu mixes Western and Vietnamese dishes, and the drinks include craft beer on tap alongside the standard tourist-bar selection. The crowd is heavily the dive community, longer-stay travelers, and the more outdoorsy end of the Nha Trang foreign visitor demographic. The atmosphere stays calm and conversation-focused throughout the evening.

Full Review
Jelly BrewPub occupies a corner space at 46 Hung Vuong with the layout splitting between an indoor bar area, an outdoor garden seating zone, and the attached dive shop that handles scuba excursions. The dive shop side gives the venue its distinctive identity within the Old Quarter; this is a bar where the dive community gathers between trips, planning expeditions, debriefing dives, and generally socializing around the shared interest. Walking in for the first time, you'll likely see dive equipment, charts, and trip schedules alongside the standard bar fixtures.
The craft beer program is the second distinctive feature. Several taps rotate through Vietnamese and Asian craft beers, with the lineup changing periodically. Pricing is fair at 60,000-100,000 VND per pour, which is competitive with the rooftop bars while delivering more interesting beer choices. The flight option lets visitors sample multiple taps at reasonable cost. Standard cocktails, beer, and basic mixers round out the drinks program.
The food menu handles Western and Vietnamese dishes at fair prices (mains 120,000-250,000 VND). The kitchen produces reliable food rather than impressive plates; this is a dive bar, not a restaurant. Burgers, sandwiches, banh mi, fried rice, and a few mains cover the basic appetites that dive trips and bar drinking generate.
The crowd is the venue's most distinctive feature. The dive community provides the regular anchor, with visitors who are diving with the shop forming part of the social network. Longer-stay travelers, expats based in Nha Trang, and the more outdoorsy end of the foreign tourist demographic make up the rest. The atmosphere stays calm and conversation-focused, with the music kept moderate and the energy never building toward club intensity. This is a place to drink slowly across a few hours rather than a venue for serious nightlife.
The Neighborhood
Old Quarter sits two blocks inland from Tran Phu Beach in Nha Trang's Loc Tho ward, with the cluster of backpacker bars and Western-friendly venues concentrated on Biet Thu, Hung Vuong, Nguyen Thien Thuat, and Tran Quang Khai streets. The whole zone fits inside a 500-meter square and is walkable end to end. Jelly BrewPub sits at 46 Hung Vuong in the northern Old Quarter, near several mid-range hotels.
Getting There
Grab or Xanh SM from anywhere in central Nha Trang costs 25,000-60,000 VND. Walking from any Tran Phu hotel takes 5-10 minutes through the cross-streets. Most Old Quarter accommodation puts you within 5 minutes' walk of any venue.
