Vibrant Mid-Autumn Festival colors at Hanoi cafes.

Miffy Coffee

Not only known as a shopping paradise, Dang Van Ngu street is also home to many charming cafes. Miffy Coffee is a quiet cafe with a super chill outdoor garden on the second floor. The cafe's facade isn't particularly striking, but the further you go inside, the more impressive and memorable it becomes.

The cafe has three floors, a spacious layout, and a minimalist design. It's divided into several different areas, each decorated in its own unique style, but all in a pristine, trendy white tone. Especially during the Mid-Autumn Festival, Miffy Coffee invested in decorating many photo-worthy spots with star-shaped lanterns, carp-shaped lanterns, masks, etc., to cater to photography enthusiasts.

The cafe's menu is very diverse, ranging from classic coffees to milk coffees, mochas, lattes, and delicious fresh fruit juices. In addition, the cafe offers a variety of pastries such as muffins, corn cakes, flan, and crepes…

Rosier Fresh Tea & Coffee

Rosier Fresh Tea & Coffee, a cafe with sun-drenched, rainbow-themed Korean vibes that's currently captivating young people, is also incredibly generous in pioneering the production of environmentally friendly canned milk tea.

While many cafes nowadays adopt a minimalist white-toned style, Rosier stands out thanks to its distinctly Korean minimalist aesthetic, combined with the elegant ambiance of Parisian cafes. From colors and lighting to interior details, everything is kept to a minimum according to the principle of "less is more," allowing customers to focus on appreciating the original and pure beauty.

During the Mid-Autumn Festival, Rosier Fresh Tea & Coffee dons a new look, adorned with the vibrant red of traditional toys. This will become a favorite spot for Instagrammers on the "Hanoi coffee map".

Hide and Seek Cafe

Nestled quietly on a small street, next to a bustling and noisy market, it's hard to spot Hide and Seek. Hide and Seek Cafe gives those who stumble upon it a slightly unsettling feeling upon entering, partly because the cafe is located next to a busy and lively market.

The cafe boasts a classic space with a Renaissance art style, centered around exquisitely detailed and artistic paintings. Notably, all the paintings are hand-painted by the owner. "Hide and Seek" feels like a classic concept photo studio with golden light, vintage-style chairs, and tables reminiscent of the 90s, creating a nostalgic atmosphere for diners. In addition, the cafe has many charming little corners perfect for taking photos with decorations characteristic of the Mid-Autumn Festival.
