The name means balcony in Vietnamese, paying homage to the large outdoor spaces in restored French colonial townhouse. At Bancong you can tuck into the drinks and dishes that make Hanoi a foody favorite with elevated views of the city’s fabled Old Quarter. The house that hosts Bancong was built in the 1930s by a wealthy Vietnamese merchant. Inspired by vanguard architecture from Europe and the United States, he commissioned an Art Deco design with broad balconies and large windows to allow plenty of natural light. After the war, the structure lay derelict for decades and fell into disrepair. In 2019, They restored the house and launched café and restaurant.
