Press Club

If you’ve reached your Asian-food limit or have kids who are craving some home cooking, the Press Club is a good option for a light lunch of soups or sandwiches. It has a nice third-floor terrace that offers respite from the Hanoi bustle and a convenient spot, right across the street from the Sofitel Legend Metropole, for lunch, dinner or afternoon coffee or pre-dinner cocktails. Several expats also swear by the weekend brunch.
