Hi everyone, I’m Alice. I love checking out cute coffee shops and sharing them with you guys. Yesterday, I stopped by Cuccu Coffee – their newest branch at BT3.2 Nguyen Xuan Khoat, Xuan Dinh, Ha Noi right across from the Korean Embassy
Even though it was a weekday, the shop was super crowded – I arrived at about 2:30 PM and had to hurry a lot to find a seat. Those who came later even had to stand to drink, but it seemed that didn't stop the "photo-loving group", because everyone brought cameras, phones, pretty dresses, well-done makeup – there were so many beautiful girls here, I saw they were all young and loved taking pictures.
The first impression when arriving at Cuccu is the feeling like just stepping into a small European resort. The shop was renovated from a villa so the space is very spacious, airy, with front and back gardens, many green trees and a very eye-catching fountain placed right in front of the door. These details create a peaceful, cool feeling – a beautiful place to relax.
The design style carries a classic Mediterranean vibe with beige, brown, and earthy red tones, very elegant and cozy. From the tiled floor, railing to the arched windows – every detail is carefully cared for. If you love vintage, gentle vibes but with depth, then Cuccu is a place you should try visiting.
The shop has 2 floors, especially the rooftop is an ideal place to watch the sunset. Natural light shines through the large window frames, combined with green shady trees creating beautiful photo corners with no dead angles. I saw many girls wearing maxi dresses, silk dresses standing next to the fountain or wooden stairs that looked like they were in Santorini or some Mediterranean villa.
The menu of Cuccu is quite diverse – from coffee, fruit tea, matcha, milk tea to items with Mediterranean flavors like mulberry, hồng bì. I ordered a tea camellia mix with kumquat hồng bì and white pearl, and 1 cup of shan tuyet black tea, and 1 pack of sunflower seeds, average drink price here is about 2 to 2.5 dollars, ( 50.000-65000 vnd) price is quite expensive but with this beautiful view it's okay. Drinks are beautifully decorated, the kumquat hồng bì tea is brownish yellow in color, decorated with a kind of leaf I don't know the name and a thin slice of orange, my milk tea cup is lower but has strong tea and milk flavor, served with chewy black pearl.
There are also sweet cakes like passion fruit cake, salted egg sponge cake, mango cake, egg cheese cake, price is about 2 dollars. Drinks in this shop are unique and not confused anywhere else with a menu including tea coffee for introverts and extroverts, not clear why they divide like that. Coffee for introverts includes black brown coffee, machine brewed coffee, salted cream coffee, egg cream coffee, cacao. Drinks for extroverts include latte, apricot americano, orange americano, also have "gentle" drinks like original cold brew, apricot cold brew, orange cold brew, "green" drinks include oat matcha latte, orange matcha, egg cream matcha, cheese cream matcha, "Mediterranean breeze drinks" include kumquat hồng bì Capri, Santorini strawberry, Sicily watermelon, "simple" drinks include: yellow lotus oolong, longan lotus oolong, peach passion tea, peach orange lemongrass tea, strawberry cheese tea, "sweet" drinks include shan tuyet black tea, shan tuyet egg cream, "fresh" drinks include orange, pineapple, watermelon, passion fruit juice. "sour" drinks include strawberry yogurt, coffee yogurt, blueberry yogurt, egg cream yogurt, side dishes include shredded chicken, sunflower seeds, fresh cakes...
Every cup is presented very beautifully, clean, neat – drinkable, and even better for photos.
Because the shop is still in the process of completion, some corners are still messy with soil and unfinished paint, you should be careful when moving.
Also, because there are too many customers, you may not have a seat if you come here in the late afternoon or evening.
Cuccu Coffee – Nguyen Xuan Khoat is truly a place worth trying for the team who loves chill coffee, likes luxury vibe and taking pictures. Spacious space, beautiful design, decent drinks, friendly staff – if you need to find a place to "escape the city" without going far, Cuccu is a great suggestion.🫶🏻
⏰ Opening hours: 7 AM – 11 PM daily
📍 Address: BT3.2 Nguyen Xuan Khoat, Xuan Dinh, Bac Tu Liem – Opposite Korean Embassy
📸 Tip: Should go early or in the morning to have beautiful corners + fewer people.
