The Story

About This Place

Pasteur Street Brewing has been a fixture in Ho Chi Minh City's craft beer scene for over a decade, and the Xuân Thủy location serves as Thao Dien's de facto taproom for expats and locals who've moved past mass-market lagers. The rotating tap list leans into Vietnamese-inflected fruit ales — the passion fruit wheat ale brings back regulars by name, while the double jasmine functions as the reliable entry point for anyone not yet sold on craft.

The kitchen runs a broader menu than most beer bars attempt. Smoked goose breast and octopus carpaccio (bạch tuộc carpaccio kiểu Ý) sit alongside bắp bò ngâm mắm and classic pub fries, threading a line between honest bar food and more considered plates. The combo deals — Combo Saved Deal B with oysters draws specific praise — offer solid value for groups settling in for several rounds rather than a single drink.

The room divides between a street-side area open to the energy of Xuân Thủy and an air-conditioned section in the back suited to quieter evenings. On Saturdays and Sundays, the doors open at 11 AM, making this one of the few spots in the neighborhood where an afternoon session doesn't require booking a brunch table. Service earns consistent mention in reviews, with staff member Tân cited by multiple regulars for attentiveness that doesn't tip into intrusion.

For a neighborhood well-covered by wine bars and cocktail menus, this is the straightforward choice when draft beer is the point rather than the afterthought. A 4.9 rating across more than 1,600 reviews reflects a spot that functions as a weekly habit for many, not a novelty visit.

I used to live near Sala Pasteur. But now I live near here. This is my go to place and my man Tân is a great host. The other workers here are quick and friendly as well. If you want a light fruity beer I recommend the “passion fruit wheat ale” but the double jasmine is always a winner 🍺

Popped in on a quiet Monday evening, my first visit to the Thảo Điền location. Very attentive and prompt service. Extensive food menu amd great beers as always. I'd love to see them open a location in my usual home base, Da Nang!!

I'm a regular at Pasteur Brewing when in Vietnam. I first went when there was only one. Food and service is consistently good across all outlets. They've been operating 10 years so obviously doing many things right. Of course, I'll be back. Recommended.
