Previously, the old villa at 3/5 Hoang Sa was a French restaurant. When taking over, the owner of Beanthere cafe still inherited the architectural beauty of this building. The shop only changed some items to make the building have Indochine style. The main door, windows, and roof are arched to bring softness to the building. The door is also installed with transparent glass, so the space of the shop is always filled with light and natural green.
