The coffee was served hot and smooth, with a mild flavor that felt simple and easy to drink. The aroma was faint, pleasant but not strong enough to linger. It had a clean finish, though it lacked depth. Overall, it was fine to enjoy but nothing stood out.

Came in at 9am on Thanksgiving and there were about 20 customers waiting in line for their drinks with 1 single barista rushing around the bar. I felt bad for him but also annoyed. About 20 minutes later a few other employees started coming in. Management really needs better staffing during busy hours. 9:20 is too late to be fully staffed for a coffee business.

This is my review after their renovations. Everything on the menu has gone up by about 50 cents, which might be a small annoyance to some people. However, my main disappointment was with the coffee, it just wasn’t as good as before. I ordered the Eggpresso Hanoi, but it was very underwhelming. The coffee tasted watered down, lacking the strong, rich flavor it used to have. On the bright side, they’ve expanded the space with new seating and tables. The atmosphere is very pretty and aesthetic, and it’s definitely more comfortable to sit and relax now. Still, the coffee was a letdown for me. Personally, I’d prefer the stronger coffee flavor and pricing at Duc Huong Sandwich, since things at Lacaphe have changed quite a bit.

Went here on 4th of July. I was prepared for them to be closed because of the holiday, but to my surprise it was open. I went around 8am and there was already like four people waiting on their drinks. The decor inside is nice with flowers around. The place is small so I would not recommend to hang around. I loved how the menu showed which drinks you are able to get hot. I got the coco freeze and it was just the right amount of coffee and coconut flavored. I am definitely going back and trying their matchas.

Eggpresso Hanoi was perfect with 25% sweet and less ice. The new Thai latte was also flavorful with 25% sweet. Service was fast, and the staff was nice. It's a small shop, so there is not much decorations or comfortable settings like many other booming coffee shops in the area.
