The Story

About This Place

Thong Thả Cà Phê operates out of a space that belongs equally to coffee and architecture. The ground-floor café shares its building with Moc Style, an interior design firm, and the connection is more than incidental — sample materials, finished project photography, and installation details from previous commissions line the walls and corners. The owner-designer's eye is visible throughout: layers of tropical greenery run from floor level toward the ceiling, multiple distinct seating zones break the space into pockets that feel private despite the venue's size, and natural light filters through plant cover in a way that reads as deliberately composed rather than casually assembled.

The morning menu earns loyal regulars who arrive early for xôi and mì trộn — dishes that appear on almost no other coffee shop menus in the An Phu district. By mid-morning the crowd shifts toward café drinks, with both filter and machine-brewed coffee on offer. The outdoor garden section under a covered terrace draws those who prefer open airflow; inside, big and small tables accommodate solo visitors and small groups alike.

At 4.6 stars across nearly 400 reviews, the space performs consistently for people drawn by the setting rather than pure convenience. A workshop room is available for private meetings or events, extending its use beyond the standard café visit. The 5:30 p.m. close means it serves the morning-to-afternoon crowd entirely and skips the evening coffee scene altogether. Within Thao Dien's saturated café market, the architecture-as-experience proposition stands apart — one of the few spots where the physical space is the primary draw.

This coffee shop is well-designed and structured, as the owner is an architect. The second floor houses is the architectural company. They use the coffee shop to serves as their showroom. There are areas to showcase their previous projects and building materials. I absolutely love the greenery created by the indoor trees and plants.
