The Story

About This Place

Ollin café occupies a spot on Xuân Thủy where the coffee menu splits clearly between the experimental and the classical. On one side sit the house signatures — Coffee Jelly in both regular and oat milk versions, a Coconut Coffee, and the Coffee Cloud — drinks built around texture and cold-brew-style sweetness that draw the afternoon crowd. On the other, a rotating single-origin board covering Ethiopia Natural, Ethiopia Wash, Kenya, and Starmaya offers something more considered for guests who want to taste the bean itself, not just the recipe around it.

The kitchen-to-cup range is unusually wide for a Thao Dien street-front café. Oat milk runs through most of the menu — the Oatside Flat White, Oatside Latte, Caramel Latte Oat, Eispenner Latte Oat — signaling an awareness of the diet preferences now common in the neighborhood. The Eispenner, an iced espresso float format popular in German-influenced Vietnamese café culture, is a less common find here and gives the list some personality.

With 227 Google reviews averaging 4.4 stars and hours that stretch to 11:45 PM on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, Ollin fills a gap in a neighborhood where most specialty cafés close by 9 or 10 PM. That extended window makes it practical for post-dinner coffee or a late working session in a way that few comparable spots on this stretch of Thảo Điền can match. The 7 AM opening keeps it useful at the other end of the day too, ahead of the heat.

I’m really impressed with the coffee quality and set up atmosphere at Ollin in Thao Dien here. The first coffee I tried was traditional latte which its taste was original and the staff service is professional. In addition, the vibe of both indoor and outdoor is smart set up and flexible for customers needs. Another times I tried here with orders of red cold brew and affogato that all great and no more comments at all. It’s already in my favorite places list :)

A lovely coffee shop! The coffee tastes amazing — I also sniffed some of the sample blends, and they were great, too! I believe our barista brought us our coffee drinks — he seemed genuinely happy to work there and make coffee, which made us also enjoy the coffee and have a good time, as customers ☺️ We sat indoors to enjoy the cool air conditioner, but many people sat outside as well. It is a bit crowded here, but the ceiling is very high, and the window is also floor to ceiling, so the atmosphere itself was nice and open. Highly recommend!

Nice coffee shop. Don't really get the wine part. The space to sit is limited but it's a nice atmosphere.

Loved their "Cloud coffee" - so cool and so good. Atmosphere is cool and so big variety of different coffees! We were just a bit dissapointed of not having anything else for eating than just some bakery....
