Xin Chao Coffee

Our Story

Being Vietnamese people, we take pride in our culture, cuisine, and identity. Our coffee has affirmed a reputation in the global market; our brewing methods result in a uniquely fragrant and strong coffee flavour. Grabbing a cup of coffee at the street vendor is a daily routine for many Vietnamese people, and a significant part of our identity.

We observed the difficulty for the Vietnamese community in Calgary to enjoy authentic Vietnamese coffee, and embraced a vision to launch the first Vietnamese coffee shop in Calgary. Instead of solely offering unique coffee, we hope to also bring our cultural beauty; the interior is carefully designed to blend western modern architecture with Vietnamese architecture, and we pour our heart and soul into each drink. We look forward to meeting you!

Why “Xin Chao”?

Since Xin Chao is the first shop that serves a traditional, unique Vietnamese coffee taste in Calgary, we looked for a Vietnamese word that conveys our enthusiasm over this exciting new opening. “Xin chào” means “hello” in English, and is convenient for non-Vietnamese people to pronuounce. So “Xin Chao Coffee” is our way of saying “Hello!” to our new, current, and future customers 😊
