OUT OF THIS WORLD SERVICE AND EXPERIENCE!!! They go above and beyond with what they can offer!!!
We had a last minute decision to do the railway street cafe tour and I found 65 Railway on Tiktok.
It’s true what the creator said in video. You can message 65 Railway on Messenger and she responded right away! (Forgot to ask her name 😭). She gave me instructions on where to pin the drop off, picked us up and walked us to their spot. We exchanged seats and tables numerous times but they assisted gladly. They even got us a table with the cafe besides them and keeps on telling that they are “good neighbors”. And maybe because they are good neighbors too!
They willingly offered to take a lot of photos and videos and just catered to all of their customers including us with every request and ask.
And i can’t stress enough how good every food was!!! At a very very reasonable price, you get the authentic taste of Vietnam. From Pho to Sausage to fried rice to salad to Banh Mi. Everything was exceptional!!! I wasn’t able to take photos before eating because we devoured them right away!

Read moreThe Hanoi Train Street is a one of a kind experience, and 65 Railway Coffee gives the Vietnamese hospitality that people will remember by. Their side of the train tracks aren't the best compared to other sections, but they will make sure your stay is worthwhile.
I reached out to them via Whatsapp (here's their number btw: +84 91 996 55 11), and they are very responsive to messages, requests, and inquiries. They will also give you directions on how to reach their area, and their representative is willing to pick you up once you are at the street.
Upon arrival, we settled down and they offered us to have photos first before the train arrives. We ordered coconut shake, fried beef noodles (both are must try and really yummy), and banh mi sandwich. It took a while (maybe around 30 minutes or so) before the food arrived so we were already hungry. We caught 4 trains in the evening (7:10, 7:20, 7:40, and 8:05) and caught train fatigue too, haha.
This place is quite far from the usual tracks (past Ga Ha Noi already), FYI. There are more train streets that are more colorful IMHO. But if you want to see how Vietnamese live around, head here and be...
Read moreVisited the place to get a good spot for the train passing on train street. Staff was nice and helpful. Drinks obviously overpriced but that's OK. I considered it the ticket fee for a front row seat.
Edit after owners response : Thank you for your constructive response and additional comment. yes I am very sure to have been in your cafe and I was seated in a blue chair. I am writing my review from memory 2 weeks after my visit, so if I am really confusing something, my apologies. Regarding the pricing sure it's affordable/cheap in absolute terms from a European/US perspective. My review was more regarding relative prices compared to other places in Hanoi. I recall the drinks being 30 to 50 percent more expensive than in other places in Hanoi I have visited. As stated before I consider that to be OK, since you are in a very unique location. Unfortunately I cannot comment on how your prices compare to other cafes on...
