Our Story
From a 1940s Hanoi invention to the world's best egg coffee — the full Egg Story.
The Invention
When milk ran scarce, Nguyễn Văn Giảng — bartender at the Metropole — did what inventors do: he reached for the egg. Whisked into silk, folded into coffee, a legend was born. Eighty years later, Eggyolk carries that Hanoi invention to Saigon.
Quảng Trị cherries, basalt soul
Ripe red cherries from Eggyolk's own Quảng Trị farm, grown on rich basalt soil, batch-roasted small. The cup tastes of the tropics — bold up front, with a sweet long finish that lingers like golden hour.
Not all eggs are egg-coffee eggs
Special eggs only: richer cream, không bị tanh — no fishy note — and lower cholesterol. The result is what guests actually say: “egg-ier and custardy,” or “creamy… not eggy at all… nice balance.” In short: “Favorite is their egg cacao.” — guest review
Served separately, by design
At the HCM flagship the egg cream is served separately from the espresso — you watch the layers happen. Hot egg coffee arrives in the red ceramic cup on a wooden tray. The craft behind the playful brand.

Real voices from 2,700+ reviews — the honest one included.
“In my opinion, they actually serve the best egg coffee. Compared to other cafes that offer egg coffee, eggyolk's version tastes egg-ier and custardy. We tried their egg coffee, cacao, and matcha and all of them didn't disappoint. My favorite is their egg cacao.”
“The egg cream on top was very creamy and rich in flavor, but not eggy at all. Once you mix it into the coffee, it creates a really nice balance.”
“Egg coffee — a perfect blend of specialty coffee and a smooth, creamy egg foam. The Crack Coffee features a crispy white chocolate shell for an extra delightful experience.”
“This place is very nice — recommend cocoa egg, it is sooo delicious.”
“This café is a wonderful oasis if you need a comfortable place to rest when it is scorching hot outside.”
“Bought the eggyolk crack coffee but wasn't really impressed by it. The crack chocolate tastes too waxy.”
