Hanoi Story Bar Brings Asian Craft Beers To The Concourse
Come evening, the mood shifts as Tokyo Brew Lab gives way to Hanoi Story Bar, transforming the daytime coffee hideout into a cosy evening bar centred around craft beers, Asian spirits and Vietnamese-inspired flavours. The intimate setting is framed by a vinyl-lined feature wall, warm lighting and a laid-back atmosphere that makes it easy to settle in for a few drinks.
The drinks programme explores breweries and distilleries from across Asia, with craft beers rotating regularly to keep the selection fresh. Expect hop-forward IPAs and fruit-driven sour ales, alongside cocktails made with Vietnamese spirits and sake from Vietnam. The food follows the same regional spirit, bringing together bold bar snacks and sharing plates designed to pair naturally with the drinks, including spicy fried chicken, river prawn fritters, anchovy crackers and hearty sandos.
Rather than trying to be another polished cocktail bar, Hanoi Story Bar leans into discovery, bringing lesser-known Asian producers into a relaxed neighbourhood setting. Its central location makes it an easy stop after work, while the constantly changing beer selection gives regulars a reason to return. For now, it remains something of an under-the-radar find — and that may well be part of its charm.
