Faifo Coffee Hoi An is one of the best places to enjoy Vietnamese coffee while overlooking the gorgeous streets of the ancient town of Hoi An.

During our visit to Hoi An, we stopped by Faifo Coffee to try their signature drink. Faifo cafe features rooftop seating overlooking the ancient town. It is known for Instagrammable photos on social media with lovely Hoi An street views from the rooftop. This café wasn’t originally on our Hoi An food list. But out of curiosity, we decided to check it out for the stunning street view. We fell in love with their offerings.

Coffee Tasting Visit at Faifo Coffee

Faifo Cafe Ground Floor

We wandered around Hoi An Ancient Town and decided to look for a place to relax with some Vietnamese coffee. The café was quite busy on the day we visited. We were greeted with a friendly welcome from the staff and then proceeded to place our coffee order at the counter.

Faifo Coffee Hoi An - What To Order

To manage visitors who might want to take photos without ordering, the staff kindly requests that you order your drink before proceeding to the upstairs seating area.

We sampled the signature Vietnamese salt coffee during our visit. It’s worth noting that the coffee prices are on the higher side compared to other places in Hoi An.

Faifo Coffee Hoi An - Second Floor Seating Area

After placing your order, you can take a seat as the staff will bring your coffee to your table. We chose to sit on the second floor to relax and enjoy our coffee.

The old building, dim lighting, and simple decor create a nostalgic atmosphere that transports you back in time. The ambiance in the cafe is lovely, slightly dark, but a perfect spot for chatting and enjoying time with friends.

We ordered the Vietnamese coffee with pink salt and creamy cheese. The coffee was creamy and had a strong flavor, offering a very unique taste.

We also tried the burnt cheesecake, which was a creamy and decadent delight. We truly enjoyed our time here.

Later, we went up to the rooftop to take in the view. The sights from the rooftop overlooking the streets of Hoi An were stunning, and we captured some great photos.

You can see the roofs of the old houses from the coffee shop’s rooftop, and many of the social media photos you see are taken from this spot.

However, you can’t sit at the edge, as that area is reserved for photography. It was fun to observe the cityscape from the rooftop, and it was lovely to relax there before the tourists arrived later in the day.

Also, I noticed that the maintenance could be improved. There were litter and empty cups that hadn’t been cleaned up, likely due to the large crowd.

Overall: Hoi An Coffee Shop with Rooftop View

Faifo Cafe Hoi An - Best Place to take Instagrammable photo

All in all, Faifo Coffee Hoi An is a lovely coffee shop that is great for taking pictures and relaxing, especially after exploring the ancient town. While the coffee may not be the best in our opinion, it offers a fantastic view and a pleasant atmosphere. It’s one of the best rooftop spots overlooking the streets of Hoi An, making it an excellent place to capture stunning photos of the city.

We recommend visiting during off-peak hours to avoid the large tourist crowds, as it gets quite busy with people looking for the perfect sunset shot.
