The Story

About This Place

Hàng Trống is one of those Hoan Kiem streets that still feels like a neighborhood rather than a tourist corridor — and Arabicano Coffee & Tea sits on it with a 4.9-star rating across 104 Google reviews, which puts it well above most cafés in the district. The name signals a focus on arabica-forward drinks alongside a tea menu, catering to the kind of crowd that actually thinks about what's in the cup rather than just where to sit for a photo. The rating consistency across triple-digit reviews suggests it's pulling in repeat customers — locals who work nearby, residents who treat it as a weekday ritual — rather than one-time visitors propping up the number. Hoan Kiem has no shortage of cafés competing for attention along Hồ Hoàn Kiếm's western shore, but Hàng Trống sits a block removed from the heaviest foot traffic, which gives spots on this street a slightly lower-key character. Arabicano Coffee & Tea appears to benefit from that positioning: a place people return to rather than stumble into. Without menu specifics in hand, what the data does confirm is a strong and sustained customer response — the kind that typically reflects consistent quality in the cup and a comfortable enough space to linger. For anyone working through Hoan Kiem's café options looking for reliability over novelty, the track record here is hard to argue with.

Stopped by because of recommendation from someone. Well, it’s pretty nice for a drink and the materials are fresh, the place is tiny but cleaned! I have never tried their menu in full but the soursop jasmine tea is amazed. The taste is really tasty and flavor of jasmine, the sour from the fruits. All goes very well together! The people are good, talkless that I like! And they open early to enjoy the city in the morning with local peoples! Highly recommend you guys to this place, tiny but the best drink for 30k in the old quarter. Hope they could keep the quality like this if one day, you guys are famous or more popular! Thank you guys to making the drink for me! So good

We stayed at the Airbnb inside this alley and stumbled upon this hidden gem. Delicious banhmini (panini style banh mi). Salted coffee and bac xiu hit all the right spots. Owners are extremely friendly. Love the nón lá decor. Such a good spot if you want to sit down and chill with coffee and banh mi.

Found this place while looking for a café to escape the rain. The tables tucked inside the alley have a great atmosphere. The owner is very friendly, and the lime coffee is unique and delicious. A cozy and aesthetic café.

Great and freshly roasted coffee. You shall experiment a fruity sugar coated note with a deep sense of caramel and hint of dark chocolate. You can choose Robusta or Arabica for your coffee which is really convenient. Highlight for summer is their tea mixed with fresh fruit, a bright spot for the heat and busy City. Great atmosphere in a local narrow alley, friendly owner. Convenient for bike rental and Banh Mi. It's a must try when you visit the city.
