1. Cafe Giang

Cafe Giang is one of the oldest coffee brands in Hanoi, founded by Mr. Nguyen Van Giang. Mr. Giang used to be a barista at the Metropole Hotel during the French colonial period, and the famous Hanoi egg coffee at Giang was transformed from the cappuccino drink when he worked at the Metropole. Giang's egg coffee has a rich coffee flavor combined with the aromatic taste of egg yolks and a hint of sweetness from the cream. There are many coffee shops in Hanoi that serve egg coffee, but making a cup of egg coffee requires careful attention to prevent the egg aroma from overpowering the coffee. Therefore, Giang coffee shop is a must as this is where you can try the original Hanoi egg coffee.

  • Price: 35.000 VND 
  • Location: Alley 39 Nguyen Huu Huan, Hanoi

2. Cafe Dinh
