If in Hanoi, the railway coffee has become quite famous among both domestic and international tourists, then in the coastal city of Nha Trang, a newly opened railway coffee shop is equally captivating. The shop is located on Nguyen Trai Street - a road that is always bustling and lively, but behind it lies a completely different space. Here, visitors can immerse themselves in a nostalgic, fresh atmosphere, and watch the trains pass by right before their eyes, leaving unforgettable impressions.

According to Mr. Le Van Nam, the owner of the railway coffee shop, who shared with me during my visit: "The railway coffee shop was renovated from an old house, retaining its nostalgic style. Despite its recent opening, the shop is always packed with locals and tourists coming to experience it. My initial intention was to open the shop mainly as a place for friends and family to sit, drink coffee, and reminisce about old memories. Additionally, I have collected old photos of Nha Trang to hang in the shop so that my children can learn more about the history of this land."

In my personal experience, the railway coffee shop stands out in the coastal city of Nha Trang with its minimalist design, which blends seamlessly with the surrounding fresh atmosphere. Notably, the view in front of the shop opens to the railway tracks and moss-covered, rusted houses built during the French colonial period, combined with climbing plants everywhere, adding to the shop's antique charm. Moreover, with the idea of preserving old photos of Nha Trang, the shop also displays many collected pictures from various sources. These are printed, framed, and hung on the second floor so that through these photos, local residents and tourists can better understand the history and development of Nha Trang.

Mr. Nam also added that the shop prioritizes safety above all. When visiting, guests are only allowed to sit inside to enjoy their drinks and watch the trains pass by; stepping out onto the railway corridor to take photos is strictly prohibited. Due to the shop's three-floor space and the majority of customers needing to arrive early to secure seats near the balcony to watch the passing trains, many customers call to reserve good seats, but that would be too complicated. Therefore, the shop prioritizes seating for those who arrive first.

Customers of the shop come from various age groups. Elderly visitors seek a nostalgic space, while younger people come to experience something entirely new. Ms. Van Anh from Phuoc Dong commune, Nha Trang city, shared that upon hearing about the railway coffee shop in her city, she felt very curious and wanted to experience it herself. "Honestly, when I came here, my impression was that the shop is very fascinating. It was my first time drinking coffee while eagerly waiting for trains to pass by. I'm sure I will come back here many more times," Ms. Van Anh enthusiastically expressed.
