Chillin' at Cong Caphe

by - 8:00 PM


Cong Caphe is a popular and iconic Vietnamese coffee shop chain known for its unique retro socialist-themed decor. Their concept is a nostalgic throwback to the subsidized economy era in Vietnam (1950s–1980s), with decor inspired by military green tones, old propaganda posters, vintage furniture, and retro Vietnamese household items. Also the vibe is cozy, artsy, and distinctly Vietnamese, blending history with modern coffee culture. 



It feels both cozy and quirky, making it a popular spot for tourists, creatives, and locals alike. Staff wear vintage-inspired uniforms that match the theme. In busier spots (especially touristy areas), service might feel a bit rushed — but overall, it’s solid.


Their drink menu is a mix of Vietnamese classics and unique house creations. Most loved items:
1. Cà phê cốt dừa (Coconut Coffee) – Sweet, creamy, and cold. This is the fan favorite, especially for newcomers.
2. Cà phê sữa đá – Strong and authentic, just how a proper Vietnamese iced coffee should be.
3. Special teas – Like peach orange lemongrass tea, refreshing and well-balanced.
Some drinks may be a bit sweet for those who prefer a stronger or more bitter brew, but you can ask to adjust the sugar.



For the price is more expensive than your average local café, but you're paying for the brand, location, and atmosphere. Drinks typically range from 45,000 – 70,000 VND (~$2–3 USD), which is fair for the experience. They are located all across Vietnam (Hanoi, Saigon, Da Nang, etc.).


Overall Cộng Cà Phê is more than just a coffee shop — it’s an experience. If you're into café-hopping, Vietnamese coffee culture, or just love cool aesthetics, it’s definitely worth a visit.
