We visited an excellent café where we tried the famous Vietnamese egg coffee as well as their traditional Vietnamese coffee, and both were absolutely delicious. You can immediately tell the place is highly recommended—there were lots of locals and tourists enjoying their drinks. The flavors were rich and unique, and I personally loved both coffees. Despite how crowded it was, the service was impressively fast and very friendly. Overall, it was a fantastic experience and definitely a spot worth visiting if you want to taste authentic Vietnamese coffee.

We last visited Café Giang back in 2022, and today’s return confirmed two things. Hanoi’s Old Quarter remains endlessly charming, and this egg coffee is still a heavyweight contender for richest beverage on Earth. The cafe sits in its usual tucked-away corner, all atmosphere and nostalgia. Unfortunately, so does everyone else in Hanoi. The place was absolutely packed, and within minutes we found myself wondering whether the queue was actually part of the experience. The egg coffee arrived looking beautiful, silky, and deceptively innocent. One sip in, and it was exactly as I remembered, delicious in theory, dangerously indulgent in practice. It’s the kind of drink that whispers, “Go on, you’ll be fine,” while simultaneously settling in your stomach like it’s signing a long-term lease. To be fair, it is a classic. But by the time I finished, I was equal parts impressed and mildly concerned for my stomach Worth trying once, worth revisiting if you enjoy culinary brinkmanship. As for me, I’m giving it three stars, part admiration, part survival.

A popular spot among tourists because of its history. It’s located by the main road but tucked slightly inside a small alley, though the sign in front makes it easy to find. We ordered their famous egg coffee. Vietnam is known for its coffee, but I can honestly say that Giang Café serves the best one I had in Hanoi. The coffee doesn’t taste eggy at all — it’s creamy, sweet, smooth, and still rich in coffee flavor. I absolutely loved it! 🫶🏽 The service was friendly and fast, even with the crowd. A must-visit when you’re in Hanoi! 🤗

Café Giảng offers an undeniably authentic piece of Hanoi history, as it is recognized as the original birthplace of the Egg Coffee stepping through the narrow, alleyway into the vintage, multi-level space is an essential part of the experience but its very crowded and noisy inside and not easy to find a place to sit . Regarding the actual drink, while the egg coffee is certainly nice and highly recommended for its creamy, rich texture—often compared to liquid tiramisu or meringue—you found that the taste experience was just "okay" and "not the best," despite its famous reputation. Ultimately, Giảng provides a mandatory cultural checkpoint for coffee lovers; visitors come not just for the best-tasting cup, but for the most authentic and first place to try the unique Hanoi staple. Pro (Authenticity): The original, most historic, and most authentic place for Egg Coffee. Pro (Atmosphere): Vintage, hidden alley setting offers a truly classic Hanoi experience. Con (Taste Subjectivity): The flavor profile is "okay" but may not be the "best" tasting cup compared to modern interpretations elsewhere.

This place is easy to miss if one isn't looking properly. A quaint entrance led to the densely crowded cafe which on the inside is made of 2-3 floors. We ordered an egg coffee and a salted caramel coffee. Both the coffees were easily the best we have had in Hanoi so far. Thick, creamy, better than anything we've ever had or imagined. Would recommend to anyone in Hanoi ❤️
