Forget about coffee MANGO SMOOTHIE! It’s PUREE MANGO like no milk. Owner was alittle pushy don let it fool ya, the drinks here is worth d
Lovely little sidewalk café with a true local vibe. Great place to enjoy strong Vietnamese coffee, watch the street life go by, and have a quiet chat. Staff is friendly, and the atmosphere feels authentic and relaxed. Highly recommend if you're looking for a calm spot away from the tourist rush – coffee lovers and people-watchers will love it here. Try the egg coffee or salted coffee – local favorites!
Highly recommend, I have been chill at this place since I came to Hanoi first time in 2016. It's almost 10 years for me. Everytime I come back to Hanoi, there will be a great return for me to meet up aunite (owner) as she remembers who I am even just a nobody foreigner.
Bad coffee and the boss/owner started to yield and nag the workers in front of the clients… she asked them to start vacuuming water… we come to have a coffee and find some sort of peace and they start cleaning when we’re having the drinks. Moreover the coffee was really bad, lattes in Vietnam have been amazing but this one wasn’t…
