House of Barbaard Bar

this bar was a vibe! went on a monday afternoon, very quiet, i’m sure it’s busier on weekend nights. atmosphere and service were impeccable, bartenders john and michael were super friendly and sweet with great recommendations for food/drinks in the city, and the cocktails were amazing! i had an aviation with vietnamese gin, a custom citrus cocktail with vietnamese rum, and a shot of vietnamese rice vodka. 10/10 experience, would definitely go back if i was in saigon longer 🥰

I honestly can't remember how many times I've been here, but always leave with a good experience ^^ Perfect for chilling with friends or even coming alone, cause the bartenders are always super attentive and easy to talk to.

Great speakeasy hidden gem within the Sofitel, staffed by well trained bartenders who are fluent in English and cocktail recipes. I had the Tommy’s Margarita which was incredibly only 150k during happy hour - for a hotel bar this is incredible value. Replacing the tequila with Mezcal adds about 200k to the drink, though it is well worth it as the smokiness balances out the sweet agave syrup. I like my drinks less sweet though. It’s usually quiet during school nights but I think the staff are great company even if you decide to drop by alone. And the decor as you can see from the pics is perfect for a (sneaky?) date. All in all a great find in Saigon!

What an exquisite bar. Hidden away Inside Sofitel Hotel on the third floor through a long hallway behind an old-fashioned wooden door you will find this very classic looking bar with it's own barbershop inside. The atmosphere, the pictures the attention to detail and lighting was all spot on. Not many seating places and perfect for that intimate connection. The cocktails just made the whole experience wholesome. Go here alone or with someone you want to impress.

What a fantastic place. The service was outstanding, the cocktail and snack selection was excellent, and the whole experience was memorable from beginning to end. I also had my beard trimmed and my head shaved, and the grooming service was top-notch. A special shoutout to Michael, who was absolutely exceptional. His service, positive energy, and sense of humor made the evening extra special. He went above and beyond to make me feel welcome, and he is a big reason why I enjoyed my visit so much.
