Cool cafe with strong coffee and delicious iced drinks. A smoker’s haven with smoking in the courtyard and as far as I could tell, maybe inside too. Lots of young Vietnamese cool kids hanging out and very close too the Hue citadel. I love all the old tapes and hi-fi equipment that’s scattered around the cafe.

Finally, a fun cafe with reasonable prices. Located around the corner from a more busy street, Cassette Cafe doesn’t get more fans because of its hard-to-find location. I enjoyed every drink I ordered. (October 2018)

This is the first place in Vietnam that I have found that actually serves decent sized portions of coffee, and so cheap too! I only paid 15,000vnd for the best americano that I have ever tasted. 13/10 would recommend.

Nice cafe to sit down and relax. Very reasonable prices and good drinks. There were a lot of people smoking tho, which I don't like. Nice atmosphere and street view.

Great, calm place to have coffee in very close distance to Imperial Palace. Good (cheap) prices and excellent coffee (especially the coconut one, which I love). Girls who work there are very friendly and kind, they let us to leave our backpacks there for free and later also helped us to get a taxi. Very nice place and people!

We wanted some coffee after lunch and this place is very close. We ordered an Americano and a coconut coffee. The coffees were outstanding. All the customers except us were locals, hanging out or working. Very nice ambiance. The drinks are very cheap as well.
