Coffee 40 & Restaurant — Restaurant in Hà Nội

Had THE BEST banh mi's and refreshing lime juice, husband had a Hanoi beer. The beer was ice cold and was served by the sweetest cafe owner (Mai). She put my husband's bottle tops on the track to keep for a souvenir... Really cool! The prices here are great too but the food was AWESOME !! Simple and fresh, the rolls weren't squished in a toaster, not full of greasy mayo, just YUM and loaded with fresh chicken or beef with cucumber and carrot and fresh mint to add as you like. The chilli sauce is served on the side to add as you like and was really tasty with chilli and garlic (didn't taste like the usual chin sui sauce). Thanks Mai for a great experience 😀🙏 Oh and if it's a hot day Cafe 40 Restaurant has air-conditioning and fans 😎🪭 If you're in train street and want watch the trains in a cool spot with great local food and lovely service then come and visit Mai.... Get dropped of in a Grab car at the intersection of Phung Hung and Nguyen Van To streets opposite Drop in cafe, then cross the road and look for stairs, once on the tracks turn right and look for her little green sign. The best prices, nice food and drinks and lovely local service...

Came here thanks to a FB post in a travel group. The Egg Coffee was the absolute best I have had in my month in Vietnam. There’s a more popular spot next door, but I would give this one a try, the food was so good and very obviously cooked with love. She was so grateful to have us there as these businesses are hurting since the new rules. They were charging 50k to enter the street on the staircase on the left… but the one on the right was free if you tell them exactly which business you are going to they’ll take you. I have heard you can also get snuck in via the back alley. Not sure what a previous customer is talking about… The lady was not rude at all, very smiley with us once we were smiley with her & This is located directly on the tracks, train schedule is...

Can I give more than 5 stars?! This was our first place to go to when we arrived in Vietnam, and it has honestly set the bar for the rest of our trip. The BEST egg coffee we have had, and now just trying to find anything that resembles even close to what we had here. The service was amazing with the mother-daughter team, who treated us like family. A lot of the cafes around here tend to tell you that the train is coming in 45mins or 30mins just to get some business, but they were so transparent here. Just honest hospitality and food! They were very kind to our toddler, and there were good food choices for him also. Away from the crowded bustling area of train street, and pretty good views of the train if you are just...
