Cafe The Began — Restaurant in Ninh Bình Province

This Café is a straight 10/10! 🌟 If you’re in Ninh Binh, you have to stop by. Jake is super friendly, fun to talk to and makes you feel right at home. We loved it so much that we came back almost every day.

☕ His egg coffee? Next level. Honestly, one of the best I’ve ever had. But fair warning: once you try it here, you might never enjoy a regular egg coffee again as you did before. 😉

🎶 Inside you’ll find relaxing music, cozy vibes, and even some fun games if you feel like playing. On top of that, Jake and his family also serve delicious food — the perfect mix of comfort and taste.

A must-visit spot that will easily become a highlight of your Ninh Binh trip. 🙌

And a quick side note: they also run a homestay 🛏️ it’s right next to the Café and the location is perfect for sightseeing.

Thanks for having us. We enjoyed...

This cafe was a little bit of magic for me. I spent a few moments here meeting fellow travelers, exchanging tips and stories, and getting to know each others' cultures.

The food and coffee were amazing! It's also in a tiny air-conditioned space, the perfect escape after a tiring yet fulfilling day of biking around the area.

But what I appreciate the most was the owner. He accommodated some of our requests like some extra ice and a last minute booking for a car ride back to Hanoi. He was very friendly and helpful, even answered all...

If you’re in Ninh Binh and craving a truly memorable cup of coffee, don’t miss this place. Today, I enjoyed one of the best coffees I’ve ever had, along with a delightful and heartwarming conversation with the owner, who is also the barista. I have a feeling this memory will stay with me for a long time.

This café captures the very essence of travel—it’s perfect for a quiet break, and even better for sharing small, meaningful conversations. What made the experience even more special was hearing about the life journey...
