📮 Leave a Note, Sip Some Joy – A Visit to The Note Coffee, Hanoi

After seeing countless glowing reviews and vlogs about The Note Coffee, we decided to drop by and see what the buzz was all about. Tucked away in the heart of the Old Quarter and right beside Hoàn Kiếm Lake, this charming little café offers more than just coffee — it’s a feel-good experience. We visited in the late morning and were lucky to grab a top-floor window seat, which offered beautiful views of the lake and the streets below. Be aware though — the café is not air-conditioned, so it can get quite warm, especially midday. That said, the warm atmosphere also seemed to keep the table turnover relatively quick. I ordered a freshly baked croissant, which came warm and crisp on the outside, soft and fluffy on the inside — exactly how it should be. Of course, I couldn’t leave without trying their egg coffee, a Vietnamese must-have. It was smooth, sweet, and velvety — a delightful take on the local classic. What sets this café apart is its signature concept: walls covered in colorful sticky notes, handwritten by visitors from around the world. The notes add a personal, heartwarming touch to the experience, making it feel like you’re part of a global community, all sharing good vibes over coffee. ⸻ ✅ Final Verdict: A great stop for a break in the Old Quarter — come for the egg coffee, stay for the view and leave a little note behind. It’s one of those places that’s touristy for a reason. #summervacay #thenotecoffee #hanoicafehopping #eggcoffee #vietnamcoffeeculture #hoankiemlakeviews #oldquarterhanoi #stickynotecafe #hanoieats #coffeewithaview #vietnamtravel #hanoi #hanoitrip #vietnam #vietnamtrip
