Maison Marou was founded in 2011 by two French entrepreneurs who discovered during a jungle trip that Vietnam grows excellent quality cocoa beans, yet these beans had not been properly promoted or developed. They decided to establish the brand, overseeing every step of the process—from selecting cocoa beans, fermentation, roasting, grinding, molding, and more. Maison Marou is also the first brand founded by Westerners to set up its chocolate headquarters in Vietnam. It was once praised by The New York Times as "The Best Chocolate You’ve Never Tasted." Doesn't this make you want to give it a try? The chocolate samples in the store were truly impressive! Whether it's slightly tangy, bittersweet, or the sweet and rich chocolate that suits Vietnamese tastes, each has its own unique charm. We ordered ice cream and latte for dine-in, and the store also provided nut chocolate for us to taste. Holding the chocolate in your hand, it gradually melts with your body heat. When you take a bite, the nutty aroma and the sweet-tangy flavor of raisins are perfectly balanced. Luckily, we chose to dine in, as this delicious treat would likely melt on the way home! Although their products are available in convenience stores and souvenir shops, we highly recommend visiting their chocolate café to experience it firsthand! We visited the Maison Marou Café Nha Tho near the cathedral. The second floor has balcony seating, offering a chill vibe! If you're worried about the heat, there’s indoor seating with air conditioning as well.

Maison Marou is not just a café — it’s a patisserie and gourmet chocolaterie where Vietnam’s finest artisan chocolate is made from hand-selected local cacao and crafted with precision in Saigon. This beautifully designed space offers a full bean-to-bar experience. You can see, hear, smell, and taste chocolate creations being made fresh on-site by expert chocolatiers. The aroma alone is enough to make any chocolate lover swoon. Aside from chocolate, they also offer handmade gelato with rich flavors that reflect their cacao expertise — creamy, smooth, and indulgent. Perfect for cooling off in Hanoi’s warm weather. I also had fun customizing my own chocolate boxes as souvenirs — a perfect gift (or indulgence) to bring back home. Whether you’re here for a sweet treat, a unique coffee break, or simply to experience Vietnam’s craft chocolate scene, Maison Marou is A MUST-VISIT spot in Hanoi! /ig: @maisonmarou 📍91 Tho Nhuom Street, Hoan Kiem, Hanoi 🇻🇳 Opening Hours: MON - THU, SUN 09.00 AM - 10.00 PM | FRI - SAT 09.00 AM - 10.30 PM #รับส่วนลดไม่พึ่งดวง

In Hanoi, Vietnam, I enjoyed a rich chocolate tart at "Maison Marou Hanoi", a store of MAROU, famous for Vietnamese chocolate. 🍫 In addition to sweets for eating in and taking away, the store also has a lot of cutely wrapped seasonal chocolates and beautifully wrapped souvenirs! It was perfect as a gift for someone special👍 #Spring0yentrip #marou #marouchocolate #Hanoi #Vietnam

When you go to Hanoi, you will find that Maison Marou's chocolate 🍫 is sold in many places. The price is not cheap in Vietnam. It turns out that this brand is a local Vietnamese brand, and it even has its own factory and dessert shop. 🫘There is a cocoa and chocolate specialty area in the store, where you can taste them. The other dessert shop is located opposite the factory, where you can taste cocoa while learning about the production process. This time we ordered Tiramisu and Pain d epices (orange flavor), and the drinks were the signature Marou with chili&cinnamon. 🍰Tiramisu is highly recommended. It is different from ordinary Tiramisu. It has a stronger cocoa flavor but does not steal the taste of the coffee liquor. The orange and cocoa flavors of Pain d epices are not prominent enough, and the overall taste is relatively light, which is suitable for people who don’t like sweets, but I prefer the strong taste. ☕️The signature Marou is a must-try, it has just the right sweetness and bitterness, and you can taste the original flavor of cocoa. Chili&cinnamon are both very delicious, the chili ratio is quite special! #Hanoi #Vietnam #cafe #cocoa #chocolate #tiramisu #marou
