Wall of books and wooden dining table at Mây Vegan Vĩnh Hồ, a vegetarian restaurant in Hanoi

On Vinh Ho street, behind an ochre wall, there is an old Hanoi home with rattan lamps and a floor-to-ceiling wall of books. This is Mây Vegan Vĩnh Hồ – a vegetarian restaurant in Hanoi that cooks the Vietnamese classics entirely from plants, and invites you to “come home for a vegan meal”.

A vegetarian restaurant in Hanoi that feels like home

Mây Vegan Vĩnh Hồ is a vegan and vegetarian restaurant at 112A2 Vinh Ho, Dong Da district, Hanoi – you enter via Lane 17 Vinh Ho. It opened in spring 2023 inside an old collective housing block, and it was the very first house to carry the name Mây. Today Mây Vegan Vĩnh Hồ runs independently, with its own menu, space and way of welcoming guests.

Several places in Hanoi use the word “Mây”, so on Google Maps look for Mây Vegan Vĩnh Hồ – 112A2 Vĩnh Hồ. (Read why Mây Vegan Vĩnh Hồ is not part of the other Mây restaurants.) Guests rate it 4.8 stars across 479 Google reviews.

It started with books

Before there were dishes, there were books: trips carrying books to the mountains of the North-West and the Central Highlands, and a free reading corner in the middle of Hanoi. That is why the wall of books at Vinh Ho is not decoration – it is the root of the house. Pick one up, order a tea, and read for as long as you like.

Green wooden cabinet, bronze drum motif and vintage telephone inside Mây Vegan Vĩnh Hồ
A green wooden cabinet, a bronze-drum motif, an old telephone – every corner of Mây has a story.

The paintings, the little objects on the shelves, the round wooden trays the food is served on and even the handwritten menu were all made by hand. Mây didn’t buy a style off the shelf; it built a home.

100% plant-based Vietnamese food

Everything on the menu is vegan – made entirely from plants. The kitchen recreates dishes every Vietnamese person knows by heart: Hanoi bún chả, bún đậu, Lã Vọng-style turmeric “fish”, clay-pot rice, bún riêu and phở. It is a good place to try real Vietnamese flavours if you travel plant-based, and an easy choice when your group mixes vegans and meat-eaters.

A day at Mây

At 9 am the doors open and sunlight falls through white curtains onto a warm bowl of congee. At lunch, clay pots of fragrant jasmine rice fill the house with steam. Afternoons are slow, with a book from the wall. In the evening the rattan lamps glow and sharing platters crowd the long wooden tables.
