The drinks are okay and the cafe is cool and traditional on the outside. In the inside, it's nice too but it's pretty dark.

Vibes are strong in this cafe n brings back much of the yester years as it gets rolled back with some pretty nostalgic items like old school furniture, tableware, glassware, posters, sewing machine. Interior is abit dark but the cross ventilation achieved ensured the space wasn't stuffy at all. Tried the salted coffee.caphe muoi and it was heavenly. Totally worth a.visit if you wish to experience old time saigon

We randomly happened upon this cafe when walking. Its awesome, you get the feeling it hasnt been renovated or changed since 1975! The ca phe maui (salt coffee) we had here was great and good value for money. Go sit up stairs or on the street benches and soak in a little bit of Saigon histroy - the cafe has been there since 1975 and is the same age as Viet Nam!
