The Story

About This Place

Highlands Coffee on Xuân Thủy sits on one of Thao Dien's busier thoroughfares, drawing a steady mix of locals and expats who want a predictable, no-fuss stop in a neighborhood where independent cafes tend toward the pricier end. The menu leans heavily into seasonal limited editions — the Fortune series runs mousse cakes that draw on Vietnamese culinary references, including a chưng mousse built around the flavor profile of bánh chưng and layered with mascarpone. The Strawberry Matcha Latte pairs Japanese matcha with strawberry sauce, while the tea menu covers Hong Kong milk tea, Taiwanese milk tea, Green Tea Milk Tea, and Hojicha Milk Tea alongside fruit-forward options like Peach Tea with Lemongrass and Tea with Lychee Jelly.

Morning combos at 45,000 and 63,000 VND represent some of the more accessible price points for a sit-down drink-and-snack combination in the area. The afternoon tea combo is offered both in a single-person format and a group configuration, which suits small meetings or a longer midday break. Operating hours extend to 9–10 PM most nights, making it one of the later-closing options on this stretch of Xuân Thủy.

As a national chain, Highlands Coffee lacks the editorial distinctiveness of Thao Dien's independent roasters, but its consistent execution, air conditioning, and reliable Wi-Fi keep it a practical choice. The 4.2-star average across nearly 700 Google reviews reflects a venue that meets expectations rather than exceeds them — useful context for visitors weighing it against the more curated spots nearby.

The location is fantastic. It is clean and very chill. Service was fantastic, and everyone is so respectful. We love this location more than the other Thao Dien location.

Where to go when you need a chilling coffee place with reasonable price? This. They also got great banh mi selections and some other kind of pies. Try them out and believe me, you won't be let down. A++++

I always come to this place because my workplace and apartment near. But, tonight after having chill and good vibe in the shop, and then I want to back home, the old guy security ruined the mood. I just ask whether I could leave my bike a minute to have a short walking near the shop. If can not, I just go. Badly, he answered like yelling me with his terrible sound and gimmick. So poor service with this old man! Will never come back to this place!
