"In 2007, Vietnamese artist Linh Dung opened the first Cộng Cà Phê in the heart of Hanoi’s downtown quarter. It was frequented by members of the local art community, who stopped by for the heavenly signature Cốt Dừa Cà Phê, iced coconut milk with dark, strong Vietnamese coffee. According to the website, “Cộng” refers to Vietnam’s official name, Cộng Hòa Xã hội Chủ Nghĩa Việt Nam (the Socialist Republic of Vietnam), though the cafe interior also includes lots of design references to the Viet Cong. The city’s young residents — who tend to think of the war differently than older generations and the international community — have embraced the vintage decor and military-esque furniture as period kitsch, and the cafe has become immensely popular in HCMC with many locations." - Linh Phan

Cong Cafe is famous for its coconut coffee and it really is a must-try. This location is great because it’s in a little hidden shopping complex with lots of cute local clothing brands & thrift stores.

The prices are affordable, and comfortable ambiance. The staff is friendly, and the coffee is delicious without causing any acidity issues—definitely a plus! 😍🫶 Additionally, Cong offers its own merchandise, including well-priced and high-quality tote bags. A must-buy for souvenir! ✨️

Probably the vibes but everytime I visit Cong Cafe, staff were so stiff and not as friendly as other cafes. However i keep coming cause I just love the vibes and their coconut green rice drink. Each time i visit Vietnam, i dont bother the friendly service, as long as i get what i wanted, i am okay. Wouldnt expect excellent friendly service, but just direct and transactional service from Cong Cafe.

I was very impressed with the atmosphere. The cafe is small and cozy, with a warm and inviting atmosphere. The decor is rustic and charming, with exposed brick walls, wooden tables, and vintage lamps. The place is always crowded, but it's easy to find a seat because people tend to turn over tables quickly. The coffee is excellent! I tried the signature coconut coffee, and it was delicious. The coffee is strong and smooth, with a subtle sweetness from the coconut milk. The cafe also offers a variety of other drinks, including smoothies, tea, and hot chocolate. The staff is friendly and attentive. They are always happy to help you with your order and make sure you have everything you need. Overall, I had a great experience at Cộng Cà phê. It's a great place to relax and enjoy a cup of coffee with friends or family. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who is looking for a cozy and charming cafe in Ho Chi Minh City.

Oh my oh my oh my!!! I FOUND A GEM! What an incredible experience! Their unique blended coffee and tea drinks, especially the ones with peanut butter, strawberry, or coconut milk, are simply delicious—though quite rich! I also enjoyed their simple snacks, like the noodles with egg and dried beef and the croissant with condensed milk; both were satisfying and flavorful. The ambiance is cozy and inviting, making it a perfect spot to relax. Plus, everything is incredibly affordable! If you're in the area and looking for a delightful café experience, I highly recommend Cong Ca Phe. You won't be disappointed!

Situated upstairs on an old building. The staircase leading to the first floor is grand (by the olden day's standard). The atmosphere created is rustic as if during the war time with the staff adorned in a Viet Cong attire look alike. Limited choice of food but it is simple and easy to the stomach. The ginger milk tea and plain ginger tea is palatable. The price is more than reasonable especially if you are talking about the venue situated in the tourist area.

I like sitting on the second floor by the window. Have a nice view of the river and the road, enjoy watching the cars and motorcycles as well as people crossing the road. Recommend the Hot Roasted Ginger tea with Salted Cream if you already had too much coffee.

Love this place snuck in the building that you may take the elevator up (need to pay VND3k), or just walk the stairs. Their coconut coffee is to die for. Consistent to all branches, I must say. Just note that. This branch doesn’t accept card payment, only cash.

Had the signature iced coffee with condensed milk and coconut cream. Also had the passionfruit juice.. the coffee was awesome (worth coming just for that) ..the juice- way too sweet.. not much real passionfruit. Decor was cool. Nice spot
