Tiny Cafe Doi Can is a cafe with a nostalgic beauty, completely different from the luxurious cafes that I often visit and write reviews. The cafe is located in a small alley in Hanoi, but surprisingly, it is not as "tiny" as its name suggests. Stepping through the narrow alley, I immediately felt a completely different space, as if I had just gone back in time to Hanoi 30-40 years ago.
The space of Tiny Cafe is divided into two main areas: a cool courtyard with wooden tables and chairs and a traditional wooden house with a classic style. I chose a seat in the wooden house, where there are soft rattan tables and chairs, bookshelves full of old books and decorative items with a breath of the past. From the old TV to the simple wooden tables and chairs, everything is meticulously arranged to fully recreate the nostalgic space.
A special feature of Tiny Cafe is the absolute quietness. The shop does not play music, instead there is the sound of birds chirping, the rustling of leaves, bringing a rare sense of peace in the bustling city of Hanoi. If you are looking for a place to escape from the noise, to contemplate or simply to read a book, then come to Tiny Cafe
I ordered a cup of lemon tea and a cup of kumquat tea. What I like is that the shop does not use plastic cups, instead, the drinks are served in glass and ceramic cups, giving a more sophisticated feeling. The tea is refreshing, not too sweet, very suitable for sipping in a quiet space like this.
Tiny Cafe's menu is not too sophisticated but enough to satisfy those who love simplicity. Traditional coffees such as Bac Xiu, Brown Coffee, Coconut Coffee,... are all on the menu. In addition, the shop also serves some snacks such as waffles, passion fruit cakes, chrysanthemum bread,... suitable for sipping with your favorite drinks.

I spent quite a lot of time here, enjoying tea, reading books and enjoying the quietness that is rarely found anywhere else.
An evening at Tiny Cafe is a memorable experience. The space, the taste and the feeling that the shop brings make me want to come back many times. If you are looking for a small corner to escape from the hustle and bustle of life, Tiny Cafe Doi Can will definitely be a choice that will not disappoint you.
