There’s nothing like a strong cuppa Vietnamese coffee to jolt you back to your senses – but what’s even better is having a cosy and quiet setting to cocoon and caffeinate yourself in. Whether you’re looking to read, write, chat or simply stare out the window, pull up a chair and park yourself at one of these cosy cafes in Hanoi:
Cong Caphe
Cheeky, urban, hipcat gig parodying the days of red with its military vibe, propaganda splashed walls, Lenin’s edicts and khaki-clad staff. Several branches of these cosy cafes in Hanoi around town.
Tranquil Cafe
Take respite from the Old Quarter frenergy at this hushed, cosy bookish nook doing a neat line in Italian-style espresso and cake. Mellow soundtrack.
The Hanoi Social Club
Boho vibes abound at this lush flora-spangled java-cum-dine spot in the Old Quarter. Veering hipster (though thankfully without the pretension), this retro-styled East-West shophouse is your go-to when pho-d out.
