TL;DR
For gifts, buy packaged ground coffee at Trung Nguyen Legend cafes (250g/500g bags); for loose coffee, go to a trusted spot like Bacama — buying from random market stalls is riskier for authenticity.
Trung Nguyen Legend cafes sell ground coffee in solid, gift-worthy packaging with an even medium grind and chocolatey aroma — a popular souvenir choice. Available in 250g and 500g bags.
Be cautious with pricey 'specialty' cafes: at one place a customer ordered an expensive drip coffee and ended up with only about 1cm of liquid in the cup — staff said that was normal.
You can find coffee at one of the city's largest markets, but for guaranteed quality it's better to buy from a trusted place — for example, the Bacama coffee shop.
