Cong Caphe

What is Cong Caphe? Occupying a lively stretch along Yonge Street just north of Eglinton, this midtown outpost brings Hanoi’s famed coffeehouse culture straight to Toronto. Founded in Vietnam by Linh Dung, the interior is styled in nostalgic subsidy-era aesthetics, complete with signature army-green walls, vintage floral cushions, dark wood furnishings, and shelves of retro books. Guests can settle into low wooden café seating or grab a counter spot to sip, snack, and take in the neighborhood buzz.

Cong Caphe Menu & What to Order The headliner is the signature Coconut Coffee, an affogato-style pairing of robust, slow-dripped phin coffee poured over a creamy, blended coconut smoothie. For something textured and fragrant, the Coconut Green Rice smoothie delivers nutty pandan flavors accented by chewy young sticky rice, while the Hanoi Dracontomelon drink offers a fizzy, ginger-laced citrus kick. Pair your beverage with a freshly toasted bánh mì or order the Vietnamese salted cream caphe for a bold sweet-and-savory caffeine hit.
