Small, but perfect - Edit
This place is amazing!
Read moreThe menu is small and changes with I'm guessing the available seasonal produce.
Everything is prepared ans presented perfectly... But most importantly tastes fabulous!
Really glad we got to try this place, as it was closed for a two week break.
Location is correct...look up, they have a perspex sign which is easy to miss.
Pros: fully vegan!! fresh and healthy
Cons: little birds in cages, unfortunately , seems to be a "thing" in SE Asia

Breakfast - Edit
Originally hard to find - had to go down alleyway to get to the stairs, but it’s well worth the effort! They have turmeric lattes and matcha (we didn’t get to try - a few blocks were closed due to the water being shut off) but the juices and smoothies were phenomenal. We got the fruit toast with peanut butter and the carrot lox bagel. They were both sooo good, we only wished we could’ve gone there more!

Yummy! - Edit
Really yummy food and drinks, although we were waiting a very very long time before our food came out, and our drinks arrived even later. But over all it was really nice :) The chocolate cupcake was so good!

Good food bas service - Edit
I only went there to have a drink and dessert but they had no more dessert left (which okay I understand since it was the end of the day). My drink was really really good the only negative that I have to say about this place jas bothing to do with the food but rather the service. First of all when you arrive its really hard to find because the sign is so small and its on the 2nd floor. Then when you get up there no one is there to greet you both enployees were in the little room behind so I had to go fetch them then same when I wanted to pay like I almost felt like I was disturbing!

Delicious - Edit
We really enjoyed the food here. It was a nice change. The homemade wholemeal bread was delicious as was the banana and chocolate chip bread. It was a real shame though that a vegan cafe would have a bird in a cage. It was horrible eating and looking at him hopping at the bars trying to get free.

The restaurant is small but cute. The food is tasty but we found some hair of the dog in the food. I love dogs so it's not a big deal but maybe they should work bit more clean. The japanese coffee was delicious...

Cons: Really loud place at the moment because they build, Vegan bakery but they keep a bird in a small cage., I thought there is a gallery but we didn't see it

Cute cafe with even cuter resident puppy - Edit
I came here twice. She ran out of bread both times but I got my sandwich order in both times. Everything is great and simple. No oily, fresh vegan food! I had the granola both times and hot coco. The baked desserts are not on the menu but ask for them. She usually has fresh ones each day.

Get the granola - Edit
The granola with banana ice cream is amazing! I added chocolate and peanut butter and thought it was insane. My friend had the humous sandwich and we both agreed it was a bit mean on the humous but I’d definitely come back to try the banana, peanut butter, coffee and cacao smoothie (I’m predictable)
Read morePros: nice staff, good atmosphere , amazing granola
Cons: slightly hard to find, sign is not obvious and map, caged birds at a vegan restaurant?! really??

my favorite place in hanoi - Edit
I love everything here! The cosy place, all the food, smoothies, teas, coffees, matcha and turmeric latte is homemade, fresh and very tasty! You have to try it when you’re in hanoi. My favorites are the fruit toast with peanut butter and the lox sandwich!

Super cute decor and amazing food and drinks! - Edit
This little café nestled among the old quarter in Hanoi is a must-try for all vegans. It's location makes it a place where you will not find passer-bys, as it's hidden upstairs down a small alley. This makes it exclusive to those who go out of their way to find amazing gems like La Studio. The menu is small, which means it's of high quality, as they put work into perfecting all dishes sold. The banana nice-cream and granola layered parfait is so delicious! They serve homemade bread which is to die for, as proper bread is hard to come across in Vietnam. I'd recommend the fruit toast; a huge portion of peanut butter, banana and apple on bread for the price. As for the drinks, the turmeric latte is my favourite, definitely give it a try. They rotate their cake menu daily, I've tried the lemon-coconut and chocolate espresso cakes, both so good a non-vegan wouldn't know they were vegan. My advice would be to come as early as possible, as once something is gone, it's gone! By 12:30pm they were out of all bread and bagels, bad for us- but it means they are doing great business. Also, if you like dogs, the cutest little white dog adds to the aesthetic and the cheery, relaxed atmosphere of La Studio.

Best. Lox. Bagel. - Edit
We bought the lox bagel and ended up buying one more the same night. It tasted almost like the real deal, and the cashew cream cheese was amazing. Really nice atmosphere and friendly staff!

cozy and has the best salmon bagel - Edit
This is probably the coziest place we went to in Hanoi, it’s a little bit hard to find but you have to look up to spot their signs since it’s on the second floor. We tried their carrot salmon bagel, and it was amazing!! The bagel was homemade and it tasted so much like smoked salmon! Unfortunately we went there pretty late so they didn’t have any dessert left, so if that’s what you want you should probably go there earlier in the day. If you’re ever in Hanoi this place is a must!
Read morePros: very cozy, carrot salmon bagel

The Best Food In Hanoi - Edit
This is a really cool little place, tucked away in a charming alleyway near (in) Hanoi's Old Quarter.
Read moreThe food was beyond delicious. My wife and I shared the Lax (smoked "salmon") bagel, the granola parfait with peanut butter, a chocolate cupcake and a delicious, iced coconut coffee. What a meal! Every dish was truly delicious and I cannot recommend this place highly enough.
It's also something different from the typical fried veggies and tofu that one finds more frequently around Hanoi.
Pros: Super delicious!
Cons: The dishes aren't the biggest, but not worth compl

Delicious cake! - Edit
Unfortunately I didn't actually get to go to this cafe because they were closed for tet. But the girl who owns it (or works there?) saw us and gave us some cake for free, which was super delicious. She was super nice :) I would definately come if I was in Hanoi again. It's not hard to find, there is a sign...
Read morePros: Really sweet girl, yum cake, place looked cool

Amazing cake! - Edit
Used google maps to find this place and it was still a little tricky to find. However I’m glad I did as the chocolate and pear cake (25k) and the hot cacao (40k) were amazing.
Read moreThey didn’t have any coffee on this day, which is what I wanted. But there were lots of smoothies available which sounded great.
Cute little dog jumping around, but unfortunately they do keep a little bird in a small cage, which I know is a very Vietnamese tradition but it’s not very morally correct being a vegan cafe.
Pros: Delicious cake
Cons: Bird kept in cage
