Visually it is an interesting store. Handpainted as well as printed reproduction of propaganda posters. Worth it if you're into that. I bought a few as gifts for people back home. They packed it well and zero damage to the posters.

I spotted this poster shop while my way through Hanoi. I crossed over the street to check it out. Very interesting but I didn't get the feeling they were authentic old posters, but rather reproductions. Still, interesting. They also are a coffee shop. The staff is friendly and helpful - I'd recommend visiting this shop if you have extra time, but not a "must see".

Took my friend to have a look at the fantastic array of artwork available and of course to get some more posters for myself. I ended up giving half my prints away from my last visit so wasn’t going to end up short this time. There’s now the addition of hand painter posters which give a nice touch. They are considerably more expensive but in many cases the extra cost is worth it. I think I bought 10 this time , my friend 6.... and we both had to stop ourselves buying more. The lady who served us was the same woman from 2 years ago and still as helpful and patient as ever. There’s no pressure to rush your selection. There’s also a good coffee shop across the street where you can take some time out to reflect and consider your potential purchases. Absolutely brilliant shop.

Stunning prints on rice paper and an overwhelming choice. I love this little shop and the almost endless selection of prints. I went in on three separate occasions, each time returning because I thought of someone else who would just love one of the prints I'd seen. Great value and a perfect visual image to remind me of my time in Vietnam.

Brilliant selection of posters in all sizes. The lady who served us was super helpful - showed us the translations for each one. Wrapped them up well to protect from the downpours in Hanoi and to survive our trip home. Really reasonably priced too.

Great quality prints on rice paper and a huge number of designs for us to choice. Our family came to this shop three times and decided to buy 5 posters at the end. The owner was vert helpful and friendly that made us feel free to spend 40 minutes in the shop to choose the ones we like. Highly recommended for everyone who arrive Hanoi.

While they are mostly reproductions they make an excellent souvenir- lots to choose from and copied in various sizes. Good quality paper used.

I would recommend this shop for all art & coffee lovers who is coming to Hanoi - Vietnam. The owner and his staff were very friendly and helpful. They welcomed us by their very warm hearts. We bought 10 old posters about the Vietnamese war and we've got one extra FREE. That was absolutely amazing. The posters were stunning on the rice papers which was the first time I have ever seen. Also, the Kopi Luwak in here was wonderful as well.

Thank you for being super kind with us. Especially, you spent almost half an hour with my hubby to find this poster for me. I would recommend your shop to all my friends. Just update your address, so, people can find your shop easily.

Hello there. We got some posters from the shop in our visit to Hanoi, but we don’t remember the translation and couldn’t find any satisfactory translation neither. Would you help us? The quote is “không qī qūy ho’n đôc lâp tu’ do”. Thanks!
