The bean region
From the venue's own Dalat farm to the logo-printed burlap sacks beside the brew bar.
Roasted on-site — no bought-in beans.
The espresso here is 100% Vietnamese Arabica with clear fruit-forward notes — beans from the venue's own Dalat farm, roasted in the on-site roastery.
Burlap sacks printed with The Thousand Beans logo sit beside the brew bar — proof that needs no advertising.
The venue is both a café and a real roastery — which is why "Lab" is in the name: every cup is weighed, poured, and tasted like an experiment.
- Beans: 100% Vietnamese Arabica (fruit-forward)

Two floors, two experiments
Chill & observe
Sit around the lab bar and watch the barista weigh — pour — stir every cup. Arched niches, wooden benches with leather cushions, the white-pebble strip: a space for chatting while coffee gets "experimented" right before your eyes.
Work & taste
A focused space for laptops: outlets everywhere, wifi, free drinking water. Quieter, brighter — the place to beat deadlines with a flat white reviewed as the city's best.
Who the lab is for
Want to see Dalat beans roasted and brewed before your eyes — the lab bar is your stage.
The quiet upper floor, outlets everywhere, wifi and free drinking water.
Three numbers deep into the alley — park on the main road and walk in.
The venue leans chill and focused — not a rowdy hangout.
