Our story
A café that feels like home
From one phin filter in a narrow shophouse to cafés across two cities, we have kept the same promise: honest Vietnamese coffee and a warm welcome.
What we believe
Three things we never skip
☕
Beans we know
We buy from four family farms in Lâm Đồng and Đắk Lắk, pay above the market price and visit every harvest.
🤲
Made by hand
Every phin is dripped to order and every syrup is cooked in our own kitchen, in small pots.
🏡
A seat for everyone
Students, freelancers, families and night owls: there is a corner for you, as long as you like.
How we grew
Ten years, one cup at a time
Every café started with the same question: what would make this street a little better in the morning?
- 2016 Our first café opens in a Tân Định shophouse, with six tables and one phin bar.
- 2019 Our egg coffee wins the city’s favourite drink vote, and the queue never really stops.
- 2022 A second café by Bến Thành market, with a bigger roastery at the back.
- 2024 Hello Hà Nội: our first café that never closes, by Hoàn Kiếm Lake.

The egg coffee is dessert and breakfast in one cup. I’ve tried to quit it. I can’t.
★★★★★
Best study spot in town: fast Wi-Fi, a socket at every table and baristas who remember my order.
★★★★★
I walked into the Hoàn Kiếm café at 2 a.m. after a late flight and was welcomed like a regular. The salted coffee is amazing!
Come and say hi
The best way to know us is over a cup. And if you love coffee and people, we are often hiring.
