When June knocks on our door, unexpected rain seems to cool everyone’s soul. The coffee spaces interwoven with the past and present are ideal spots to wait out a passing storm.
For Vietnamese, these cafes are pure nostalgia. Expats and tourists will be given a unique look into the vibes of Vietnam in the ’90s.

The café is decorated in retro style, located in an old apartment with a view of the Ha Chuong Assembly Hall, in Cho Lon area.
Right at the entrance of the 2-floor café, you can see the bar. The ground floor has cool air, easy to catch the wind. The upper floor displays many antiques such as oil lamps, old tapes, radios, TVs, and even paintings of the Ha Chuong Assembly Hall. From this space, guests can easily view the ancient pagoda while sitting at the table next to the glass frame.

The café serves tea, coffee, ice cream, soda, mojito, yogurt, and cocktails with various flavors. For food, you can choose noodle soup, dry noodles, cake, or jam.
This place is suitable for a private date or for relaxing after a hard-working day. It is designed with colors of the old decade, recalling the old memories of many young people. The panoramic view is very ideal for you to check in.
The waiter is responsive, but he is the only person working in the café, so it takes a while to prepare the dish.
The car and bike parking areas are quite crowded and the price is relatively high.

The café is located in an alley but the area is quite large. The architectural space is stylized in every detail, imitating the shape of a pirate ship, with pure Vietnamese green patches.
There are also many models, paintings, and art publications themed One Piece. The highlight of this café is the 2-meter-high wooden statue of Gol D. Roger or the 4-D acrylic painting on wood named Brotherhood, which demonstrates the brotherhood of three characters Ace – Sabo – Luffy.
The menu is diverse, some dishes are inspired by the characters in the movie.
Currently, the number of guests coming to the café is quite large, so the waiting time is relatively long.
Rainy Coffee
The cafe is located in an alley in Phu Nhuan district, close to the train tracks. It is not easy to find the location, but the shop is still an attractive rendezvous for those who love nostalgia and want to recall their childhood memories.
The space is quite limited, just like the old house of many families in the past. There is a grocery corner selling junk food like in the childhood village.

The interior features wooden tables and chairs, antique TV cabinets, and floral tile…, bringing a familiar feeling. The café also has sets of fishing games, blowing bubbles, pinwheels, handheld electronic games…
The menu of drinks is diverse with tamarind drink, fruit tea, coffee, bac xiu, tea, smoothies… at a very reasonable price.
The café is not very crowded, so you should invite some friends to join. If you want to take beautiful photos, you should schedule the meeting during the day, when it is sunny.
Coffee 80 Tan Hoa Canal
The café is located at the intersection of Tan Hoa – Trinh Dinh Trong canal.

The Story of Coffee
The café is decorated in the style of the 90s with old-fashioned items such as telephones, radios, ceramics, film cameras…
