The Workshop Coffee

Definitely one of the best places for brunch in Ho Chi Minh City! The cafe itself is on the top floor of an old building and it’s absolutely beautiful, loft design of course. You can look at Saigon streets from above.

The food is absolutely delicious! Their drinks are not to be missed either. We tried their coffee and fresh pressed juice - both are super tasty. I’d recommend coming before 10 am or after 1pm as it gets very busy in between.

It’s a lovely place to sit and work for a few hours, or just chat with friends. Highly recommended!

The Workshop Coffee is a very good choice to work in Ho Chi Minh. The cafe has a spacious and modern interior, with plenty of tables and power outlets. You can see a lot of people working on their laptops here, creating a productive and creative atmosphere. The wifi is fast and reliable.

The coffee is delicious and varied, with options ranging from espresso to cold brew to Vietnamese drip. They also have a wide selection of teas, juices, and smoothies. The food is tasty and satisfying, with dishes such as sandwiches, salads, pasta, and burgers. I tried the creamy chicken risotto with peas and it was delicious.

I highly recommend The Workshop Coffee for anyone who works on their laptops and enjoys good coffee and food. It is one of the best cafes in Ho Chi Minh, and I will definitely come back again.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Super working environment , tasty coffee and good food.

Been visiting “The Workshop” since around 2017, for sure , the service has continued to improve and so has the quality of food and drinks.

Located at the top of a building in the Old Center of Saigon , a very enjoyable walk up to the top of the building.

The coffee shop/ restaurant has an impressive size open space for working, sitting or relaxing. The tables are very big . Not to keen on the chairs though.

Enjoy

I found someone recommended this Workshop Coffee, so I came to try. The atmosphere was very nice, cozy place where I could charge my handphone. I tried their Iced Salty Coffee, the taste was great, I think I like that.
You can sit at the window seat to have a nice and busy street view. Recommended to anyone who wanted to have a place to relax or talk.

Came here for breakfast. Food was well executed, especially the eggs benedict!

They have a pretty good selection of coffee drinks. Hot cafe latte was a little on the milky side, would have loved for a stronger coffee taste. Americano tasted great though! The cold brew latte was pretty nice with a syrup served on the side.

Do give this place a go, not just for the drinks.

Coffee selection is great and one of the best specialty coffee in HCM. It comes with complimentary postcard if you order their drip coffee. The stairs can be a deterrent for elderly folks.

Yummy Egg Bennedict, crunchy bacon and tasty sauce. We ordered one dish to share with added bacon and mushroom as in photo, enough to feed two of us.

Salted coffee was really good, creamy and not too sweet.

We got the table by the window with good view down Dong Khoi street at the crossroad which was really nice. Windows were opened early in the morning then closed around 8:30am so they could put the AC on.

The place gets busier later in the morning, many tourists.

Has their own toilet outside right on the right of the stairs when you go up.

Just prepared yourself to walk upstairs a few floors.

It’s probably one of my favourite cafes to do work at. They have a wide selection of coffee drinks, the flat white is pretty decent and their food is delicious as well.

A lot of people are here with their laptops working so it’s pretty “digital nomad-friendly” and the noise level is not too bad considering a lot of people talking and the coffee machines working (coming from someone who likes to work with some background noise so take with a grain of salt). They also play chill music which really elevates the ambiance of the place :)

Such a nice little hidden gem! The many stairs you have to climb to get there are worth it, I promise :).

I'm a bit of a coffee snob and was impressed with the cappuccino I had here. They have a nice selection of food as well - I had the smoked salmon with sourdough and it was delicious. Service was good and quick. The big open space with lots of natural light is a huge plus too.

Will definitely come back next time I'm in town!

If you’re staying in D1 and want a nice coffee experience during your trip to HCMC this is a great place to go. Lots of different coffee options and the menu is always changing.

There are a bunch of stairs to go up but for being in the top floor of an old building, once you’re inside the temperature is great.

The food options are also very good and never disappoint. The price is also a good deal considering the quality of the food and the location.

Took my family here on their visit to Vietnam and they still talk about this place.

great spot for coffee and brunch

these guys are slightly hidden away.. you gotta find the dark doorway entrance leading to a stairwell... head on up a few flights of stairs and youll find it!
(there IS a small sign out the entrance of the doorway to indicate that ur in the right area)

coffee is great.
the lemon ricotta pancakes is a must! delicious.

Tried the circus cold brew. Reading the menu thought there would be circus syrup. When it’s served it’s purely the cold brew. Asked the staff they mention the cold brew was brewed with the circus in.
The taste of the circus is within the cold brew itself. It’s not the sour type, but the refreshing feeling.
Served with too much ice though.
The bacon croissant is good. Bacon at the most inner layer of the croissant.
A difficult place to find, small entrance and need to go up for 3 level of stairs.
Worth finding and travelling to!

I’ve tried a couple, but so far Workshop had the best coffee for me in Saigon. You can choose from the traditional espresso experience or the more craft-like brewing options where you unlock differently roasted (medium and light roast, washed method) beans to level up on the taste. I like the light roast, fruity coffees made with an espresso machine, unfortunately the specialty coffees can only be selected for V60, French press and other brewing except one, the specialty lungo, but that’s a bit too watery for me. Anyway, that was still the closest I could get to a light brew specialty flat white, and it was great. They also have amazing sweet bits.

Up a couple of flights of stairs and off the road (so you might not see it at first) is a lovely cool space. Food delicious, staff were kind and helpful and lots of room to eat or work. Eggs Benedict was delicious!

A must visit if you like your coffee. Very knowledgeable baristas and a wide range of coffee selections. The design is industrial cool and the food menu looks good too. Service is impeccable.

One thing I noticed: it can get a bit warm at times, 2-3 degrees less would make a big difference.

Best coffee I’ve had in Vietnam by far!! It’s not your traditional Vietnamese coffee, it’s even better!! Highly recommend the salted ice coffee.. came here 2 days in a row hahahaha. Eggs Benedict with bacon was good too! MUST VISIT FOR SURE!!

This place was outstanding. Situated on the 3rd floor and would have been hard to find if not for the man sitting outside directing us where to go. Great atmosphere full of mostly younger crowd and backpackers working on laptops. The baristas were constantly concocting delicious caffeinated beverages with every gadget imaginable. The food was cooked to perfection and the experience was about as perfect as we could have hoped for. Would highly recommend stopping in here to get your day started off right.

We really enjoy the coffee here. They also carry oatmilk for those who can't do dairy. There's a lot of stairs though, and there's no elevator. It's a nice place to enjoy coffee and just perch to watch people. It gets really busy though, so go early if you want a seat by the window.

Guys make good V60 with local coffee blend. Worth tasting 👌🏻
Pancakes were also amazingly tender.
The atmosphere is very relaxing.
Love the stairs, they look like they remember the feet of Francis Drake or any other great pirate 🏴‍☠

Very nice place.
Foods & Drinks are delicous.
Suitable for all type of customers (alone, couple, family or group)

Highly recommend
