A Must-Try Treat in Hanoi – King Roti! If you're exploring Hanoi's Old Quarter, don't miss the chance to try King Roti! The long queues outside the shop speak for themselves—this place is incredibly popular, and after tasting their freshly baked bread, we completely understand why. We tried the Coffee Chocolate, Vanilla, and Matcha flavors, and each one was absolutely delicious. The bread was warm, soft, and fluffy on the inside, with a lightly crisp and aromatic crust. The fillings were rich and flavorful without being overly sweet. The Coffee Chocolate had a wonderful aroma with a satisfying chocolatey center, the Vanilla was smooth and comforting, and the Matcha offered a unique flavor with just the right balance of sweetness and green tea goodness. Despite the constant crowd and long line, the service was efficient, and the breads were served fresh from the oven. The wait was definitely worth it!

One bite and you'll understand why people keep coming back for more. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Hanoi! The queue may be long, but the bread is even better than expected!

King Roti was a solid stop and definitely worth the hype. The bun had that perfect contrast with a crunchy, slightly crisp exterior while staying soft and fluffy on the inside, which made every bite really satisfying. There was a constant line when we went, so expect a bit of a wait, but it moves fairly quickly. A bit disappointing that two of the options were already sold out by the time we got there, especially since we were keen to try more flavours. The one we had was good, though it wasn’t as hot and fresh as some other local spots we’ve tried, which would have taken it to another level. Still, it’s a place we’d come back to, especially to try the chocolate flavour we missed this time.

I tried King Roti in Hanoi and absolutely loved it! The buns are really, really tasty and definitely worth trying. They’re also very affordable—around 25 000 d (which is great value). They offer a few different flavors like chocolate, butter, custard, vanilla, and matcha. I tried the butter and chocolate ones, and both were delicious. I went early in the morning, so there was no queue at all and I got served straight away. However, I did notice that later in the day the lines can get quite long—but honestly, I think they’re worth the wait. Overall, a great spot for a quick, tasty treat!

Walked past about 1530hrs; couldn’t resist the coffee fragrance smell. Short queue, order 3 types of buns to takeaway. All were delightfully tasty, pastry was light & fluffy. Went very well with coffee. A great snack!
