Deserves 6 stars, very original place, unique atmosphere, the staff are incredible, and the most important: they are expert at making incredible cocktails. I went a few times and could try 5 different ones in the menu, all incredible balanced and tasty. It’s amazing such places exist

The bar we opened accidentally and visited few times after. Everything here is just perfect - location in the center of old quarter close to the lake, bartenders are so nice and speak English easily, the menu is classic cozy and signature ones, that are so much interesting and unique. And the most interesting that prices here are lower then is other similar bars. Signature cocktails are around 200—280k. Calssic cocktails are 180-250k. Also check for promotions and come to visit this place!

Like a cocktail bar from an old fairytale. Half apothecary, half Irish pub, half speakeasy, with drinks that are actually both high concept AND delicious. A charming staff and a completely unique space. Obviously a labor of love.

Went here on recommendation from a friend who went loads when she was in Hanoi. You have to follow signs down an alley and up some stairs, and then you walk in and you’re transported to a medieval tavern! We absolutely loved it. Good range of drinks, cheap, amazing service. Well crafted mocktails too. Beautifully decorated. I loved the little balcony outside. The servers today were very sweet and helped us with everything, suggesting drinks based on our likes. I understand why my friend liked it, I will be coming back!!

My friends and I had such a pleasant time here. The music and atmosphere of this bar was lovely. We sat on the balcony and it was so pleasant. Drinks were affordable and they had a great variety of options. Our bartender/server Duy was so helpful and kind. Would recommend this place if you’re looking for somewhere to grab drinks and talk with friends.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked

Is Leo's Tavern a serious cocktail bar or a tourist spot?
Leo's Tavern sits toward the serious cocktail end of Hanoi's bar spectrum. Its perfect 5.0 across nearly 750 reviews on a high-turnover strip like Báo Khánh reflects consistent quality rather than novelty traffic.
Where exactly is Leo's Tavern located in Hanoi?
Leo's Tavern is on Báo Khánh street in Hoan Kiem, just off Hoan Kiem Lake. It is within walking distance of the weekend night market and the restaurant clusters along Lý Quốc Sư and Hàng Gai.
Is Leo's Tavern good for a late-night drink after dinner in the old quarter?
Leo's Tavern is a natural endpoint for an evening that starts with dinner elsewhere in Hoan Kiem. The Báo Khánh corridor picks up as the lake area quiets after sunset.
