Great spot. Go early to catch the baking - especially the chocolate chip banana bread. Authentic and chill. Great spot to pass a couple of hours with their board games.

Reviews
It felt like going back in time in Hanoi. This isn’t a trendy and “cool” cafe but a very moody and original one. The coffee and matcha were great and they had oat milk as well!
Even though all of Hanoi’s cafe are all to die for, this was probably my favorite one. It has such a nice relaxing vibe if you are trying to get away from the busy streets. The Hojicha latte is must try for both matcha and coffee lovers. The desserts were also all made in house and super delicious. Would recommend getting the Chocolate chip cookie and the Basque Burnt Cheesecake!
Filter black coffee was great. It’s strong but it had its own heavy flavor. Cheese cake was amazing, great price. Had iced matcha as well, not crazy sweet or bitter.
My favorite café in Hanoi ❤️ Ever since I discovered this place (along with its sister café The Hidden Alley), I’ve been coming almost every day—to write, work, or just slow down. I absolutely love the vibe: it’s calm, cozy, and never too crowded. The drinks are well-priced, the pastries are amazing, and the staff is always kind and welcoming. The playlist is perfect, the space is clean, and it genuinely feels like a peaceful little escape in the middle of the city. This is the kind of place best enjoyed in a quiet, relaxed wa, perfect for solo visits, working, or soft conversations. It has a very calm energy that makes it special. Both cafés are ideal for slowing down, enjoying a coffee, or spending time in a peaceful environment… rather than for loud or high-energy gatherings (just from my personal experience over the past two weeks). This place deserves to be experienced just as it is: calm, warm, and special ❤️
