The Story

About This Place

L'Usine Thao Dien sits on Thảo Điền street as one of the neighborhood's most consistently reviewed brunch addresses — 4.7 stars across nearly 1,500 Google ratings puts it well clear of the crowded mid-range field. The concept blends a full café-restaurant with a retail boutique, so the space draws a mixed crowd: expats working through a laptop morning, couples settling in for a proper brunch, and shoppers who end up staying longer than planned once the food arrives.

The kitchen runs a French-leaning all-day brunch format from 8am through 6pm every day of the week, which makes it one of the more reliable choices in Thao Dien for anyone arriving outside the narrow windows other brunch spots keep. The interior leans industrial — high ceilings, considered lighting, materials that feel designed rather than decorated — without tipping into the sterile end of that aesthetic.

What separates it from the many newer brunch openings along Nguyễn Văn Hưởng and the surrounding streets is the combination of operational consistency and the boutique dimension. Dining here is rarely just a meal; the curation extends to what lines the shelves around the room. That layered experience, more than any single dish, accounts for why the rating has held across a substantial volume of reviews. For visitors trying to orient around Thao Dien's café scene, it functions as a reliable anchor point rather than a destination that requires timing or luck.

I visited L’USINE in Thao Dien for the first time. Since it’s a well-known brunch café, I was really looking forward to it. We ordered the Eggs Benedict and the Squid Ink Pasta with Crab. For drinks, we had a hot Americano and the Grape and Hibiscus Tea. Both the dishes and the drinks were delicious. The atmosphere of the restaurant, as well as the staff’s service and hospitality, were excellent, and we were very satisfied. The squid ink pasta was slightly on the sweet side, and I felt it could use a bit more saltiness and umami. The Grape and Hibiscus Tea, on the other hand, had a refined and subtle sweetness, which I enjoyed. There were many other attractive items on the menu, so I would definitely like to visit again.

This is a great brunch cafe. The coffee is very good and I love their crispy chicken salad. They have a lot of high quality options. My server, Lanh, was very kind.

A quiet and charming café with really nice décor. The phở was on the lighter side but still warm and soothing, and the coffee was good. Perfect place to relax and enjoy the calm atmosphere.

Food and drinks are both so good! You can tell they care about details. The atmosphere is lovely and staff are welcoming. I really like the Premium Pho and salt caramel coffee. Good place for a Sunday morning
