Hanoi, Vietnam

theRainyCats

theRainyCats ⁠‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌‌​⁠is a tiny cafe on the second floor of an old collective housing block in ngõ 65 Vạn Bảo, in Ngọc Hà ward in the former Ba Đình district of Hanoi, furnished like a cosy apartment living room with warm lighting, sofas, high tables, board games and comics. Two or three plump resident cats live there; a reviewer in February 2026 counted three and noted that it is a cafe with cats rather than a cat cafe, and visitors don't always see them all. Drinks cost 40,000 to 60,000 VND in August 2026, with fresh juices and artichoke tea recommended, and water is free. The cafe is hard to find: visitors park in the block's courtyard for about 10,000 VND, of which the cafe has covered 5,000, walk about 50 metres to house 14A and climb the stairs opposite, under a black-cat sign; the entrance is unlit at night. Seats are few, so it is worth calling ahead at weekends. It opens daily from 9 AM to 10 PM.
