YOUR INSIDER'S GOING OUT GUIDE
IN HO CHI MINH CITY 🇻🇳 SINCE 2008
SAIGON Inspiration GOING OUT
Intro to Going Out
As can be seen in our Ho Chi Minh City nightlife review, there are endless options for bars, nightclubs, coffee shops, and lounges in Saigon. Hanging out, meeting friends, partying, or simply in venues like these is part of daily life for Vietnamese, ex-pats, and tourists alike.
‘Hipster’ and artsy coffee shops abound but are hidden from plain sight!—use your discerning eye to discover them! Often tucked in the corner of an alley or inside an unassumingly residential compound, seek them out if you want to taste authentic Vietnamese coffee—many sources their coffee from family farms in the Central Highlands. For more info, read our inspiration blog article: 5 Hidden Saigon Cafés You Never Knew Existed.
Coffee shops often double up as juice bars. With prices generally between VND 30,000 to VND 50,000 for a fresh, healthy juice pressed in front of you, you have no excuses for not kicking your habit of drinking soft drinks. You might find fruits you are familiar with but don’t shy away from local flavors like soursop, guava, ambarella, kumquat, custard-apple, or sapodilla—exotic sensations that will leave a memorable impression on your mind during your travels in Vietnam.
Once the sun sets, beer bars will start welcoming office workers, students, and friends. Also called ‘beer gardens’, you can count hundreds of them in Saigon; great meeting places for an after-hour drink with colleagues. Some are super luxurious with loud techno music, beautiful hostesses, and strict door policies, while others are much more easygoing, consisting of a few open-air tables. Be sure to try one of Vietnam’s local beers such as 333, Bia Saigon, or Bière Larue. For more insights into Saigon’s beers, read our Top 10 Vietnamese Beers inspiration blog article.
A more exclusive way to enjoy your evening with a classy drink is to visit one of Ho Chi Minh City’s rooftop lounges. Almost non-existent 10 years ago, they have mushroomed along with high-rise buildings. Chill Skybar used to be the most famous of them, just 5 minutes away from most of the city’s top attractions. You also have scores of bars ranging from ex-pat drinking holes to neighborhood dive bars. Live music is available in many locations such as Saigon Saigon in Caravelle Hotel, Decibel, Catwalk, The Log at the Gem Center, the Rooftop Garden at The Rex Hotel, and more. Our listings below will give you many ideas of where to go for a great night out drinking.
Nightclubs in Saigon will please even the most demanding party-goers. Trendy venues are no slouch compared to many in Europe or the U.S. The latest pop hits and remixes will be the mainstay at popular clubs such as LUSH, with experimental electronic music in high demand at places such as The Observatory.
Prices are affordable! A cocktail or a glass of wine rarely costs more than $10 US, even at trendy venues. Most nightclubs close around 3 a.m., but you can keep the party going until early morning at several after-hour drinking holes, such as along the infamous backpacker streets of Pham Ngu Lao and Bui Vien.

A good way to learn about a country’s culture and tradition is thorough seeing some of the cultural arts they have available for the audience, not just for entertainment purposes but also to add knowledge and color to your perspective of the county and its people.

Your insider's Guide to fine Cafés & Coffee in Saigon
Introduction to Cafés
Once upon a time, a traveller would never leave Vietnam without a sip of Ca Phe Sua Da–infamously (and purported) one of the world’s strongest milk coffees made from robusta beans and condensed milk.
The last 10 years have taken the S-shaped country through a coffee renaissance… specialty cafes now sit alongside traditional sidewalk cafes, serving the best beans from Vietnam and beyond. It is now easy to get a Melbourne-style cup of espresso, Americano and even Japanese-style pour-overs made with medium and light-roast beans
On the other end of the spectrum are specialty cafes that draw upon Vietnamese youths’ love of nature. Cafes such as Every Half are an example of a recent trend that combines specialty espresso and ‘green architecture’ that has evolved to fit the city’s peculiar style of real estate and heritage city planning.
Other chains such as La Viet coffee bring the cradle of caffeine, Vietnam’s temperate Lam Dong province, to the table by glorifying the pleasant flavors of Dalat’s sought-after Arabica beans–increasing common but still rare in a country that is both famous and infamous for being the largest exporter of Arabica’s caffeine-filled relative; Robusta!

Introduction to Bars
For travellers that prefer a more relaxed atmosphere for socialising and alcohol, Ho Chi Minh City offers both local and international options.
Over the last few years, the vibrant city has seen a cocktail trend that has since exploded into different subcategories of venues. You’ll find Western-style speakeasies hidden in old apartment blocks alongside modern mixology-focused joints that exploit Southeast Asian flavours; heavy on tropical fruits, fermented produce and even exotics such as palm sugar and fish sauce! Venues such as Layla captivate young locals with beautiful drinks and daily specials.
Craft beer taprooms are also a favourite amongst the expat community. Notable breweries include Heart of Darkness, Pasteur Street and East West Brew Company which you’ll find conveniently located at the heart of Saigon’s District 1. Many taprooms are creative and competitive–you’ll often find new ‘pilot’ small batch experimental brews which keep customers returning. Craft beers from the United States are also common at taprooms such as Malt which serve a selection of the city’s and world’s best beers.
Beyond all that, Saigon’s Japantown is also filled with Izakayas and sake bars that see mostly Japanese customers—don’t be shy to visit since most are more than happy to serve you.

Introduction to Clubs
In a city that (almost) never sleeps, it’s not uncommon for locals and travelers to hop between three or fours venues during a night out in Ho Chi Minh City. From classy lounge clubs, 70s-style discotheques, boisterous Vinahouse clubs, and even underground techno venues that draw both young locals and foreigners alike, you’ll be overwhelmed by options!
The places on our list of recommended locations to experience Saigon’s nightlife share several things in common. Great drinks, high-quality sound systems, refreshing mixed drinks, and delectable service!.
LUSH, founded by four Vietnamese veterans whose first name initials formed the club’s striking yet simple four-letter name, is a typical example of a popular dance club that attracts thousands of partygoers every night. From a 5 meter-long DJ table to a mezzanine floor filled with spacy private tables, a separate events room for niche music styles, and a quiet bar area for individuals to rest and chill out over drinks, LUSH and many other clubs in Ho Chi Minh city know the importance of staying special while also catering to a wide range of clientele.
Depending on the venue, drinks will cost anywhere between VND80,000 to VND250,000, with many also offering VIP seating areas or privacy. Facebook is the primary social media of choice for club marketers in Vietnam; check the club’s Facebook page for images and posts to get a gist of the vibes you can expect before making your choice!

Saigon’s spas and beauty centers are some of the best places to relax in Southeast Asia, with everything from rejuvenating skincare treatments and mud baths to vigorous body scrubs and restful Vietnamese massages. Be prepared to fall in love with the city’s spa culture – you may not want to leave.
Beauty junkies will be pleased to discover the best spas in Saigon use naturally-sourced ingredients in many, if not all, of their treatment products. Don’t be afraid to ask about this, or anything else related to your visit – masseuses and therapists in high-quality spas are adept at tailoring the experience to the individual, and the options to customize your visit are as plentiful as they are tantalizing.
Of course, top spas are not complete without a full suite of extras to make you feel pampered and relaxed – expect jacuzzi, sauna, and steam rooms to be available to most luxury spa guests, as well as fitness centers in the larger locations. Welcome, and farewell drinks are other thoughtful touches. For couples, there are plenty of great romantic packages, with sensuous massages and luxurious pampering sessions to truly elevate your vacation or honeymoon experience.
Popular treatments include massage therapy (with Western, Thai, Shiatsu, and Vietnamese options), facial and hair care, pedicures, reflexology, manicures, and face whitening. Be sure to ask each individual spa about their signature massage treatment.
