Laby is a milk tea shop that I always love and want to come back to whenever I have the chance. The shop is located in an 8-storey building, and although this cafe is not on the main street, it still attracts a lot of young people because of its extremely comfortable space and delicious drinks. The basement is a parking area, while the upper floors are divided into many different areas, which is very convenient for customers with different needs. There is a floor that is a children's play area, and there is a beauty area.
My favorite is the 6th floor, where you can order a drink and sit in a spacious space with large windows overlooking the vast landscape. From here, you can look down on the surrounding streets, feeling very cool and pleasant, making this place an ideal place to work. The 7th floor is even more special with an infinity pool, free for customers to enjoy. You can sip milk tea while swimming, which is an extremely attractive service for only $ 1.80 for a drink. And don't forget the 8th floor, which has an outdoor terrace with lots of greenery, creating a peaceful atmosphere, this floor has no roof so you can't sit when it rains haha, but it's great to sit on the 8th floor if the weather is nice that day.
Laby always changes its appearance every time I visit, which always surprises me. For example, last year, the Christmas tree in the store was decorated in pink, and I thought it would be the same this year. But no, this year the decoration is completely different, with a corner full of gifts, teddy bears and balloons. It's really creative and beautiful. The owner has a great sense of decoration, making the space always stand out and attract attention.
As for the menu, although it's not too rich, every dish is quite special. I'm extremely addicted to the plum pearl milk tea here, with the sweet and sour taste of salted apricots and crispy white pearls. However, today I decided to try something new called pandan lotus seed tea.
This drink has a striking green color from the pandan leaves, combined with rich and creamy lotus seeds, topped with a smooth cream cheese layer and sprinkled with matcha powder.
The tea is refreshing, low in fat and not too sweet if you ask for less sugar like me. This is a great drink to sip while working, looking out at the city below and slowly feeling the stress melt away.
The atmosphere at Laby is also perfect for working, especially on days when I feel overwhelmed by deadlines. I can really concentrate and the soft love songs playing in the background perfectly fit my mood, making me feel more relaxed and comfortable. Today, the shop was decorated with red lanterns and red ribbons, symbolizing good luck for the new year, making the atmosphere even warmer and more vibrant. As a blogger reviewing restaurants, I should find new places to introduce to you, but I think I should review my experience, and Laby is a great experience for me because Laby always makes me want to come back even though I have reviewed it once. You can read my old article about Laby here: ,
In this new article, I will not write in detail about the 7th and 8th floors because I have mentioned it in the previous article, I just want to talk about my experience at Laby.

LABY TEA SHOP - Ô MAI MILK TEA CUP
In Hanoi, there have been many cases of vehicles being lost while drinking coffee. In your opinion, is the responsibility of the customer or the cafe owner to lose a vehicle? Many people think that when going to drink coffee, customers must pay attention to their own vehicles and protect their own vehicles, but there are also many opinions that restaurants must be responsible for protecting the property of customers because the customers have paid for the service. It's great that Laby has a parking garage and security guards, so don't worry if you stay at Laby all day.
I also want to try other drinks with interesting names like cinnamon tea and lychee tea. Although the price is a bit higher than average, the quality of service and drinks is definitely worth it. The staff are young, polite and attentive, and each table has a small rose tree, which is a lovely touch.
In short, Laby is a milk tea shop that I really want to introduce to you. Not only because of the delicious drinks and beautiful space, but also because of the great service, always giving me a new experience every time I come back.
