Kumquat Tree

Kumquat Tree is an East-meets-West speakeasy located in a traditional shophouse in a nondescript laneway near Hanoi's Opera House, accessible only by entering a passcode into a street-level red timber door. Founded by Hanoi-born DJ Quoc Anh, the bar spreads across two tiers including a dedicated dance space, featuring raw brick walls, plush furnishings with reclaimed Vietnamese pieces, and vibrant neon accents. The innovative cocktail menu includes signature drinks like What The Duck, a duck-fat washed scotch medley paired with mousse bánh mì, alongside an eclectic live underground music program. Cocktails average around $9, combining originality and innovation that reflects Vietnam's emerging craft cocktail culture.
