Lake View Open Mic

Welcome to the Lake View Open Mic, Hanoi’s new rooftop home for music, poetry, comedy, storytelling, and anything else you’d like to share.

Got a new song you want to practice in front of a warm, welcoming audience? Perhaps a melancholy poem about Peter Pan as an old drunk? Some jokes about the English Teacher next door? Just need to tell someone about the most ridiculous thing you’ve ever seen an Anh Oi carrying on a scooter?

Join us on the rooftop bar at the incomparably delicious Bun Cha Burger, nestled against Ho Truc Bach, for a night of music, self-expression, craft beers, and Hanoi’s tastiest fusion: the Bun Cha Burger. We have a supportive and friendly community vibe where you can actually hear yourself play, a beautiful view of the lake, and a selection of special house cocktails and local craft beers from Furbrew and Overmorrow.

Also, we know picking up a microphone in front of strangers can be scary, so everyone who performs gets a free bia Saigon for courage! Come on down to Bun Cha Burger every Monday live from 8-11 pm, with a soft acoustic finish from 11-11:30.

P.S. For parking, drive about 80 meters past Bun Cha Burger, and park in the little lot in front of the school on the left. We will give you a parking ticket for the Chi Oi.
