Cộng Cà Phê in Hoi An is part of a beloved Vietnamese chain that evokes the charm of mid-20th-century Vietnam. The café is set in a narrow shophouse on Công Nữ Ngọc Hoa Street, with vintage décor: old fans, propaganda posters, and wooden furniture. The specialty is coconut coffee – a blend of strong Vietnamese coffee, coconut milk, and ice – served in a tall glass. They also offer egg coffee, iced black coffee, and smoothies. The upstairs seating overlooks the bustling street, perfect for people-watching. The atmosphere is unhurried, with soft Vietnamese music playing. It's a popular spot for tourists seeking an authentic coffee experience in Hoi An's Ancient Town.

A bit of history

Cộng Cà Phê was founded in 2007 in Hanoi, inspired by the communist-era aesthetic of the 1970s–80s. The name 'Cộng' refers to 'cong' (communist), reflected in the retro décor. The chain has since expanded across Vietnam.
