Pet cafes in Hanoi cause a stir

1. What is a pet cafe? Origin and development

A pet cafe is a type of coffee shop where customers can interact with live animals—mostly cats, dogs, rabbits, or even reptiles—while enjoying beverages. Unlike traditional coffee shops, these places provide a relaxing environment filled with friendly furry companions.

1.1. Global origin and trend

The concept of a pet cafe began in Taiwan in 1998, with the first known cat cafe called "Cat Flower Garden" (花園貓). However, the model truly gained popularity in Japan during the early 2000s, especially in Tokyo. Since then, it has spread globally to Korea, Thailand, Europe, and the US.

In Vietnam, especially in Hanoi, pet cafe hanoi emerged around 2015, initially focused on cat cafes, but later expanding to include dog cafes, and even reptile-themed cafes, catering to the diverse interests of animal lovers.
