If you want egg coffee in Hai Phong, start with one of two verified choices: Lạc Hồng Coffee for a dedicated café stop near the city center, or Bắc Việt Coffee when you are already visiting AEON MALL Hải Phòng Lê Chân. Both currently list an egg-coffee drink, but they serve different versions and suit different plans.
Lạc Hồng lists Cafe Trứng, translated on its menu as egg coffee. Bắc Việt lists Café Kem Trứng, meaning coffee with egg cream. Recipes, sweetness and serving temperature can vary, so use the exact Vietnamese item name and confirm whether you want it hot or iced before ordering.
Quick comparison
- Choose Lạc Hồng for a standalone café visit, breakfast or lunch near central Hai Phong. It is at Level 1 of Lạc Hồng Palace, 20A Lê Hồng Phong, Gia Viên.
- Choose Bắc Việt for an indoor stop during a shopping or rainy-day visit. It is on Level 1 of AEON MALL Hải Phòng Lê Chân, 10 Võ Nguyên Giáp, Kênh Dương.
- For the more recognizable name: order Cafe Trứng at Lạc Hồng. At Bắc Việt, ask for Café Kem Trứng; the menu describes the egg component as a cream topping.
- For dietary concerns: ask about egg, milk and preparation before ordering. Neither drink should be assumed dairy-free, fully cooked or suitable for a serious allergy.
1. Lạc Hồng Coffee: a central café and meal stop
Address: Level 1, Lạc Hồng Palace, 20A Lê Hồng Phong, Gia Viên, Hai Phong
Current coffee hotline: 0899 093 668
Order: Cafe Trứng
Lạc Hồng is the more practical choice when egg coffee is the purpose of your stop. Its current official coffee menu names the drink in both Vietnamese and English, and the café also serves breakfast, lunch, tea and juice. That makes it easier for a mixed group in which only one person wants coffee.
The venue is inside the Lạc Hồng Palace building, so look for the palace name and enter at 20A Lê Hồng Phong rather than searching for a separate street-front coffee shop. Use the coffee hotline for current opening hours, table reservations and same-day drink availability. The venue publishes more than one contact number across its website; 0899 093 668 is the number attached to its recent coffee menu and café information.
Who should choose Lạc Hồng?
- Travelers staying near the city center who want a planned coffee stop
- Groups that also need breakfast or lunch
- Visitors who want the menu item explicitly named Cafe Trứng
- Anyone who prefers to call ahead and confirm the drink before traveling
2. Bắc Việt Coffee: egg cream coffee inside AEON MALL
Address: Level 1, AEON MALL Hải Phòng Lê Chân, 10 Võ Nguyên Giáp, Kênh Dương, Hai Phong
Published hours: 08:00–22:00
Store phones: 0935 390 345 and 0935 390 456
Order: Café Kem Trứng
Bắc Việt is convenient when coffee is one part of a mall visit. The store’s current AEON listing places it on Level 1 and publishes daily hours from 08:00 to 22:00. Its mall menu lists Café Kem Trứng, while AEON’s own visitor guide describes Bắc Việt as a place for egg coffee.
This is an egg-cream coffee rather than a promise of the exact Hanoi-style drink you may have tried elsewhere. If that distinction matters, ask whether the coffee is served hot or iced and whether the egg cream is mixed in or added as a separate top layer. The mall listing also states that pets are not allowed in the store.
Who should choose Bắc Việt?
- Travelers already shopping, eating or waiting at AEON MALL
- Families or groups that need many nearby alternatives
- Visitors who want an indoor stop protected from heat or rain
- Anyone specifically interested in a coffee topped with egg cream
What egg coffee tastes like
Egg coffee normally combines a strong coffee base with a sweet, rich egg mixture. The topping can taste closer to custard or liquid dessert than ordinary milk foam. The balance depends on the shop: one cup may emphasize bitter coffee, while another may be sweeter and creamier.
Do not assume every menu item called egg coffee uses the same recipe. Condensed milk, fresh milk, cream or other dairy ingredients may be included, and the egg mixture may be handled differently at each venue. A useful first order is to request less sweetness and ask the staff to keep the coffee flavor strong.
How to order clearly
Show the exact menu name if pronunciation is difficult. These short phrases cover the choices most travelers need:
- Cà phê trứng: egg coffee
- Cà phê kem trứng: coffee with egg cream
- Nóng: hot
- Đá: iced
- Ít ngọt: less sweet
- Có sữa không? Does it contain milk?
- Tôi dị ứng trứng/sữa: I am allergic to egg/milk
Ask rather than assuming that a hot or iced version is available. Egg coffee takes more preparation than a basic black coffee, and a listed item can occasionally be unavailable. If you have a fixed departure, place the order with enough time to drink it without rushing.
Egg, dairy and caffeine checks
Egg coffee is not a suitable default for someone with an egg allergy. It may also contain condensed milk, fresh milk or cream, so saying “no milk” can change the recipe rather than create an equivalent dairy-free drink. For a serious allergy, show the ingredient clearly in Vietnamese and ask about shared mixers, whisks and preparation surfaces.
If you are pregnant, immunocompromised or otherwise need to avoid raw or lightly cooked egg, ask whether the egg mixture is heated or made with pasteurized ingredients. If the staff cannot give a clear answer, choose a drink without egg. The coffee base also contains caffeine unless the shop confirms a caffeine-free substitute.
How to drink it
For a layered cup, first taste a small amount of the egg cream with the coffee, then stir lightly if you want a more even balance. Some hot versions are served in a bowl of warm water to hold their temperature, but this is not universal. Avoid stirring aggressively before your first taste; the contrast between the dense topping and bitter coffee is part of the drink.
Egg coffee is filling. It works well as a late-morning or afternoon break, but it may feel heavy immediately after a large meal. If you are sharing local dishes throughout the day, one cup between two people can be enough for a first taste.
Which stop fits your Hai Phong itinerary?
Choose Lạc Hồng when you are moving around central Hai Phong, want the drink as a destination, or need breakfast or lunch at the same venue. Confirm the café’s hours and the egg coffee by phone on the day you visit.
Choose Bắc Việt when your route already includes AEON MALL, especially in hot or wet weather. The mall setting is convenient, but traveling across the city only for this cup is unnecessary if Lạc Hồng is closer to your hotel.
Two current, verifiable choices are more useful than a long list of cafés that may have removed the drink. Check the exact branch, show the Vietnamese menu name and ask about ingredients before ordering; those three steps prevent most avoidable disappointment.
