The Cafe Apartment

lots of choices of cafe n some thrift stores, souvenir shops. thrs an elevator fee of 3000 if i'm not wrong, going up and/or down, so just take stairs up haha. interesting concept, good experience! cafe madam nguyen/quyen? has good coconut coffee in my opinion, 55k VND.

Worth visiting to sit and watch the night view. There were quite a numbers of café but cant find the directory. Need to pay VND5000 to ride up the lift. We were quite lost to look for the café we saw from outside. Ended walk-in to the one in front of us which is also mot bad. The dessert they serves was nice. For muslim friends, sorry no halal eateries within the apartment.

It was such a great experience and the atmosphere feels classic. This old building reminds me of my childhood when I used to live in Vietnam when I was younger. It has so many shops in each floor including coffee, restaurants, convenience stores, nail, etc. I was on the 6th floor I believed and went to Saigon Oi shop and sat outside. Looking down is Nguyen Hue street that happened to have an event there so I get to enjoy music at the same time. The staffs in the shop are helpful to provide me with cardboard so I can use it to cover myself under the heavy rain when I walk away from the building. Highly recommended to try many other shops around and this shop whenever you're in the area!

A fun and quirky place to explore, shop, and grab a bite to eat. When you get there you may be wondering how to het inside. There is an opening on the front left side, it doesn't look like an entrance but it is, it looks like you shouldn't even be going in there, but go ahead. Go straight, there will be an elevator on the right, you can takt that if you want but somebody my run up to you and want money for the elevator ride, so instead just walk past the elevator and soon you will see the stairs going up on your right hand side. Go up and explore!

I love the quirkiness of this place! All these little cafes in this apartment block in this upmarket area? How crazy is that? We visited both day and night ( see photos and video). There is a small fee to use the lift so you can go to the top and walk down the stairs visiting the individual cafés and shops on the way. Also, make sure to try the egg coffee. If you like earn eggnog, you'll love it.

Great experience there. It's a really special place with great atmosphere. After you get over the icky stairs the restaurants and cafés are very clean and modern with a cool vibe. Food at 21 Grams was delicious, had drinks at another place, all very good and fresh snd tasty.

Cafe Apartment is a very cool spot that’s definitely worth checking out. Tucked away upstairs, it offers the option of taking a lift if needed—but for those up for a bit of a pre-meal workout, the stairs are a fun way to get your steps in before indulging in all the good food. The atmosphere is cozy and creative, with a relaxed vibe that makes it perfect for anything from catching up with friends to enjoying a quiet solo coffee. The food is delicious, the drinks are great, and the overall experience feels like discovering a hidden gem in the city. Highly recommended if you’re looking for somewhere with charm, good eats, and a bit of character. Don’t miss it!

I loved the repurposed use of this old apartment building with the little shops and cafes. It’s an excellent place to spend an afternoon in Saigon. I suggest you skip the queue for the elevator and take the stairs.
