Hanoi Post Office becomes prime F&B hub for major coffee chains

The Hanoi Post Office, located near Hoan Kiem Lake, has emerged as a prime commercial hub for major food and beverage (F&B) brands. Within approximately one year, four prominent chains—Starbucks, Highlands Coffee, Every Half, and Phuc Long—have established a presence at this high-traffic location.

Phuc Long recently expanded its footprint by opening a 360-square-meter flagship store at 87 Dinh Tien Hoang Street, designed with a theme inspired by postal stamps and mail archives. The concentration of these brands is driven by the site's high pedestrian volume, scenic views of the lake, and significant brand recognition.

Amidst this commercial activity, the specialty coffee brand Every Half announced a temporary suspension of services at its Hanoi Post Office location starting September 5, 2026. The brand stated the closure is due to general notices from the Hanoi Post Office management regarding building-related works, with an expected resumption of service around September 10, 2026.
