Northern Soul Rooftop Bar

Northern Soul Rooftop Bar offers a delightful experience with a charming owner. Its prime location overlooking the vibrant Ta Hien street provides the perfect backdrop to soak in the hustle and bustle. It's become my go-to spot for celebrating birthdays, and I've cherished the lively gatherings there for three consecutive years. Highly recommended for its warm ambiance and fantastic views

this was a hidden gem! hidden from the chaotic hustle and bustle of the beer street but with a nice view overlooking it - quaint and peaceful vibes, cocktail are reasonable priced. Had the spanish gin & tonic, drinks are strong.

Has a cute arcade and pool area as well. Would recommend!

Had an awesome time here in Hanoi a couple of years ago. I think we ended up going back three times on a trip of a few days. The beer was great and the space is fantastic.

Make sure you walk past the business on the ground floor and take the elevator up! The ground floor business is not managed by them and has apparently been trying to steal customers away by telling them it's closed!

Beautiful roof top bar in all the chaos of the street. Has beautiful views, drinks and people.

Just FYI remember to just go straight up to the rooftop. Downstairs has no association with the venue, if you're told it's closed by downstairs. Be sure to go up and check yourself :).

Of the many bars I tried during my month-long stay in Hanoi, Northern Soul is my favourite bar in the Old Quarter. If you want a fantastic craft beer place, this is it. As a beer connoisseur, I can say that their house-brewed pilsner and Superbad IPA were top-notch and there were plenty of cocktail options for non-beer drinkers. When I was there, they had a special limited-time IPA called Hanoi Haze. Hoppy goodness. Hope they keep it on the menu permanently! Draught beers are hard to find in Hanoi and theirs are ice cold and served from fresh kegs. Plus the vibe, decor, and music are really unique for Hanoi and so much fun. Take a look around at all the music memorabilia and play classic arcade games and foosball while you lounge with friends. The best rooftop views to enjoy with your drinks. Search out Northern Soul. You won’t be disappointed! Can’t recommend this place enough.

This is a wonderful bar, with great music, great drinks, great hosts and a great view.

The vultures in the local bar at the entrance will tell you it's closed and then try to sell you beers, but ignore them; they are NOT closed. Look up and see if the lights around the roof are on. If they are on, the bar is open. Just go on through and take the elevator at the back to the 5th floor.

Nice little rooftop bar, great price for beer, nice Northern Soul music, looking down the bars street. 100VND for the Super bad IPA, will be better if they have more to choose.

One downside is the staff situation, sometime you might need to wait for long time to get serve.

I’ve had a lot of Mojitos in my life, but theirs actually comes close to the original I had in Cuba

Amazing place to go to escape the craziness of bia steeet. It is hidden away through another bar which you have to walk through to get to the elevator.

Definitely check them out. The owners are lovely and make incredible drinks. And the view of bia street let's you see all of the madness whilst relaxing.

Great spot for a couple of cocktails! Ended up going back twice!! Very reasonable prices, perfect people watching spot! They had pretty good fans put out too!! Highly recommended, great drinks and lovely service!

Had a good IPA with a great view! Walk through the lower restaurant and ignore the dudes trying to get you to sit there. Take the elevator to the 5th floor and enjoy!

Amazing rooftop, chill vibe, you can play fussball here and have great IPA the bar crafted themself. Highly recommend. Also beer is cheap as well compared to the street it's in.

IGNORE THE BAR ON THE GROUND FLOOR.
Go through that bar to the back and in the elevator to the 5th floor. Then you'll get to the northern soul bar.
It's a fantastic bar with great views and great music.

Make sure to go to the rooftop! The ground floor will tell you to drink there but this bar is on the rooftop. Amazing views and vibes !

Top Soul music bar with great English speaking owners. Very new, but got a great feel to it already. Live music can be found here at weekends, but always a great place to chill and soak up the great sounds. Coolest place in Hanoi for me.....

My absolutely fav Rooftop bar in the Old quarter all the time!
Nice view, great services and affordable prices.
Can’t recommend enough !

Best bar in Hanoi. Great drinks, good prices, chilled atmosphere, arcade and foosball. Amazing music! Just what you need to escape the madness on the streets below!

Great bar if you're not into the club vibe - really great jazzy chilled music and great drinks. Fantastic views too.

Best bar to hear soul and motown in Hanoi. Lovely view, nice drinks, great staff and just an overall lovely atmosphere.

Tight microbrew beer and deadly cocktails. Amazing bartenders. A perfect, delicious respite from the chaos beneath. Come here!
