Nice little neighborhood bar run by a cool girl who apparently runs several other bars and coffee shops in the area too. Good place for an after work drink or chat with the owner and her friends. She has a decent selection of beers and cocktails and a nice indoor and outdoor seating arrangement. And she speaks very good English too.

Reviews
Usually I wouldn’t hang out in this style of coffee. Just my preference: don’t like open-smoking area. We were looking for Yen coffee however, learned that it was gone. Plus, TD was raining heavily, we decided to give this place a go. Beautiful location for a raining day. Chill. Relax. Again, minus point for us: too much smoking for our liking. Coffee is average. Too sweet per se.
Cute coffee place hidden in an alley with lovely view during daytime and chilling vibe when the sun down. Lovely owner, she invited me some fruits and peanut. Love to spend time here during the weekend when sunset time. Definitely will come back with friends 🥰
Very disappointing experience overall... I ordered a cà phê trứng (egg coffee) but the waitress brought me an espresso instead. When I explained the mistake, she refused to make the correct coffee unless I paid for the espresso first, so I ended up paying for her error. After that, the manager also refused to turn on the air conditioning, saying they would lose money because the indoor space is not fully closed. To finish, the staff forced me to leave the coffee shop at 8:00 PM, even though Google Maps clearly says they close at 2:00 AM. The reason given was simply that they wanted to close early.
this place is unfortunately, trash. I really wanted to like it. whoever owns this spot has not taught staff what good customer service looks like. the general human to human appreciation is absent here: they do not care about regulars no matter how much you go. the drinks are overpriced for how low effort they are. it looks especially bad for bi since the café that was there before did a much more genuine and good job both the drinks and the service. this shame of an establishment has killed the community vibe of this area. do not leave your belongings here and give up on developing a bond with your local cafe…
