Goodmeo Cafe & Meow is a cat cafe in a villa at BT05, lane 16B1 of the Làng Việt kiều Châu Âu estate in Mộ Lao, Hà Đông, Hanoi. Its resident cats cover several breeds, from fluffy longhairs to some notably plump and haughty characters, and each one has a name card with a short profile so visitors can tell them apart. Staff ask guests to sanitise their hands before touching the cats and provide lint rollers for clothes afterwards. Most of the cats spend their time in the play area on the second floor, while the ground floor offers quieter seating for guests who just want a drink. The menu covers coffee, tea and other drinks with a short list of snacks. Many of the cats are relaxed enough to nap on handbags and laps, though some do not like being held. The cafe opens daily from 9 AM.

Bastet's Home is a long-running cat cafe at 34 Phố Trưng Nhị, just off Nguyễn Trãi in Hà Đông, Hanoi, with a sister branch in Đống Đa. A large group of cats of many breeds lives in the small, busy cafe, and most are gentle and affectionate, happy to fall asleep on visitors' laps. There is no entry ticket; instead each guest is asked to order at least one drink, and inexpensive cat treats are sold for feeding the cats. Prices are low by cat cafe standards, and the menu goes beyond coffee to milk teas, cocoa and cheese-foam drinks, plus snacks such as fried spring rolls, garlic dried pork and shaken chicken. The interior has several photo corners, but seating and motorbike parking are limited, so the cafe gets crowded at weekends. It opens daily from 9 AM to 10:30 PM.

Quán Kẻ Cót is a traditional tea and coffee house with resident cats, at 17 Ngõ 113 Phố Yên Hòa in Cầu Giấy, Hanoi. It occupies the green front yard and rooms of the owners' family house, furnished rustically with wooden tables, brick walls and calligraphy, and it bills itself as a place for tea, coffee and art. Many of the cats were taken in by the owner from people who could no longer keep them. They are healthy, sleek and lively, roam freely between the garden and the tables, and are not made to entertain guests. There is no entrance fee: guests buy a drink to pet the cats, and cat food is sold cheaply for feeding them. The menu is simple and inexpensive, with pink milk tea, cocoa with pearls, avocado smoothies and bánh mì que. There is a TV room upstairs.

Katty Coffee is a pet cafe at 61 Phố Nguyễn Bá Khoản in Yên Hòa, Cầu Giấy, Hanoi, where visitors share the room with a large group of resident cats along with a few dogs and rabbits. The cats are chubby, soft-coated and well cared for, and the cafe is known for its detailed rules: staff explain how to approach the animals when guests arrive, and the cats keep a set timetable for receiving visitors, with rest periods in between. Drinks and light snacks are served, and families with children are frequent visitors, though the room can feel cramped and warm when it is busy. Katty used to be on Phạm Huy Thông by Ngọc Khánh lake before settling at its current address. Besides the cafe, the business runs a pet hotel and a grooming spa for dogs and cats. It opens daily from 8 AM to 10 PM.

Tiệm Cà Phê Mèo JennyMiaw is a cat cafe at 1144 Đường Láng in Láng, Đống Đa, Hanoi, and the first of two JennyMiaw branches; the second is on Nguyễn Ngọc Nại in Phương Liệt. More than 30 cats live with the group, most of them pedigree breeds: British Shorthairs and Longhairs, Ragdolls, Munchkins, Bengals, Maine Coons, Siamese, golden British cats and a Somali, each listed by name on the cafe's website. Entry works on a single ticket that covers time with the cats plus unlimited drinks and snacks, and the cafe keeps a stack of board games for groups. The cats are clean, well groomed and lively, though many only come running when someone opens a packet of dried chicken treats, and staff are protective of them when guests get rough. The business also runs a bathing and grooming spa for dogs and cats.
