Like the name suggests, it's very simply-designed shop. The espresso drinks are quite amazing, and actually you can choose a variety of nuts milks (almond, coconut, soy, oat) if you like. Vegan-friendly cookies are a must-try because they're favourful without buttery taste.
My (slight) complaint is that the location is at quite elusive corner of West Lake, which made it hard to find the first time around. But afterward, it's my favorite place to sit down for freelance work, writing, chatting with my close friends, hanging out with myself by West Lake (a few steps away from the shop). As an artist, I rarely find any better place than this to have quiet time doing my creative work.
Beside coffee beans, the shop features different kinds of eco-friendly products, highly original handcrafts you won't find else where in Hanoi. Come and experience it...

I particularly enjoyed the varieties of syrup available to add to the drinks. My flat white was made to perfection. The coffee quality is amazing and the taste delicious, but it is highlighted by the talented staff when making the drinks. They have many coffee grounds available for purchase as well as snacks and some sustainable products. Overall a great place to work and I will surely...

I am very impressed by the high standard and warmly recommend to my...
