Xào Xạc cafe & plants

An absolutely gorgeous, creative space. Coffee is good and they also have a ceramics shop as you enter. Very, very beautiful pieces. Worth passing by, having a look, spending some time on the roottop garden. Bonus points for using bamboo straws and for converting rice or soil bags into shopping bags when you buy something from the store. Coming from Thailand, I really appreciated this environmentally friendly approach. Ah, and you can also buy the plants they have exposed.

As I stepped off the bustling street and into the alley, the noise of the city began to fade, replaced by a sense of calm. The entrance to Xào Xạc cafe & plants, with its lush greenery and warm, inviting lighting, felt like a secret garden waiting to be discovered. The interior is just as charming. The decor is a beautiful blend of rustic and natural elements, with potted plants cascading from shelves and hanging from the ceiling. It's a perfect spot for those who appreciate a quiet, cozy atmosphere. I found a small table tucked away in a corner, offering a great view of the cafe's unique layout and the bar where the friendly staff were preparing drinks. I ordered a signature chocolate drink, and it was a delightful experience. It was rich, creamy, and beautifully presented with a dusting of cocoa and a hint of spice, accompanied by cinnamon sticks. The quality of the coffee and the attention to detail in every aspect of the service truly stand out. What makes Xào Xạc special is the peaceful ambiance. It's the kind of place where you can lose track of time, whether you're catching up with a friend, reading a book, or simply enjoying a moment of solitude. The combination of great coffee, a serene environment, and the friendly staff makes this coffee shop a hidden gem. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for an escape from the ordinary.

This cafe offers a beautiful study in contrasts. Out in the main area, it fosters a versatile and welcoming energy where the lively chatter of friends, the warmth of family gatherings, and the focused buzz of remote workers all coexist wonderfully. However, the true magic is the rear section: a true hidden gem nestled in a small alley. The high-focus workspace combined with the pleasant little garden provides a perfect sanctuary from the city noise. It feels completely isolated from the urban hustle. While the setting is exceptional, I must admit the condensed milk coffee didn't quite 'wow' me this time around. I'm keeping my fingers crossed and definitely look forward to trying a different beverage on my next visit to this otherwise perfect escape.

This is such a lovely space and has a very peaceful atmosphere. There are plants all over the place but the best is the rooftop in the morning, with greenery everywhere and wind chimes tinkling under the ceiling fans. The coffee was strong and bitter and while prices are a bit expensive I found the space worth the extra cost. The first floor has tables that are perfect for working while the rooftop is best for visiting with friends. Service was great. Parking is around the corner; follow the directions on the chalkboard outside.

Our 1st cafe in HCMC that truly left us a great impression! Their mango yogurt and Vietnamese coffee were good but what we loved was its cozy rustic vibe with greens everywhere + classic French music. I could say more but I’ll just let my photos and videos show it 😭 Bonus tip: don’t miss the top floor garden, full of plants and super breezy 🍃

Amazing place! Refreshing and delicious drinks and cozy atmosphere. Very clean, stylish and cozy. Staff is helpful and friendly 💚🌿🌿

This is an amazing cafe! Probably the ideal ambience to chill / social/business chats and study. The design of the cafe is absolutely soulful and creates a harmonic jazz vibe. I ordered a mango hibiscus juice with less syrup/sugar and it was delicious. They have a ceramic shop too and sell cute ceramic plates/bowls / matcha bowls/ books etc. The prices range from 100-300k (from what I saw). Overall I really enjoyed my time in the cafe with the beautiful natural decor / cool art pieces/ dim amber lights and the lovely staff’s. I will be back.

This was the cutest, coziest cafe ever. But, It's not a great spot to keep cool, there were fans but it was so hot inside. I tried the lychee lime iced coffee - which was not my favorite but thats on me haha.
