We believe in getting to know people and places through commerce and design. Someone else's daily diet of lo-fi goods is simple to her yet sacred to us, and vice versa. Let's marvel at each other's mundane, because that shit is dope.

The Note Coffee – Post-it Madness in Hanoi

When I heard about The Note Coffee, I knew I had to visit. A post-it themed cafe?! MY PEOPLE!

RAD AND HUNGRY: Note Coffee Cafe Hanoi B

Messages and drawings scrawled on sticky notes adorn walls to chairs to lamps to EVERYWHERE! The coffee-obsessed-office-supplies-lover in me was in heaven – surrounded by a beautiful mess of post-it notes while drinkin’ a tasty iced Vietnamese coffee! YASSSS!

The Note Coffee Cafe was the perfect spot for taking a break from the hustle of Hanoi’s Old Quarter. We ordered drinks and headed upstairs for views of Hoan Kiem Lake.

It’s more than a quick stop to pound a coffee. It forces you to slow down – the way to do coffee in Việt Nam. We moved around the space reading messages from customers reppin’ countries all over the world, and then we added notes to the massive collection. It’s an interactive experience – the old-school way!

The Note Coffee Cafe is totally RAD AND HUNGRY. It’s STMT to the core – a magical space born out of a gang of post-it notes. Something small turned something mighty!

(Pro-tip – bring a stash of postcards. You can buy stamps and drop ‘em off at the post office next door.)
