Best coconut coffee I've had in Hanoi so far. Kin Coffee serves this special coffee with a coconut ice cream/frappe. This makes it memorable and distinct from everywhere else I've been. Many coffee shops pour coconut cream over ice cubes. One place does the same and adds a small scoop of coconut ice cream. At this Kin Coffee location you will be pleased with a tall glass of icy, creamy coffee. You can stir it into a smoothie texture or sip from the bottom with a straw, letting the coconut frappe slowly descend with each sip.
The lakeside location on the southern strip of Tay Ho's Westlake provides shade from the sun along with a pleasant breeze. Kin has three floors, with the second floor as the ideal overlook with both indoor and outdoor seating. The third floor places you above the treetops for the best view of the lake.
I am fortunate to live about 5 minutes south of the lake in Ba Dinh, offering a quick choice between traditional Hanoi outside of the tourist areas, and the quiet south end of Tay Ho. This Kin Coffee location is my obvious go-to for the lakeside view, and the best coconut coffee in Hanoi.
