3 cafes with the most “money-making” windows in Ho Chi Minh City
These are all cafes with beautiful picture windows that you should visit once.
When it comes to cafes, Ho Chi Minh City has countless numbers, just a glance, there are hundreds of shops, diverse in styles from Europe to Asia. Besides the shops located in the front, young people also pay a lot of attention to the shops hidden in the apartment buildings. Because they are located on a high floor, in addition to the beautiful space and many check-in corners, these cafes also have “expensive” window frames to enjoy the city view. On your free days, try inviting your friends over once to have a really chill coffee experience.
People of Eight Stories House
Not long ago, People Eight Stories House used to be the name that made young people in Ho Chi Minh City “confusion” when it came to owning a special space and check-in corners unlike any other shop. Although it’s called a cafe, it’s actually just a small room designed in an old “fashion” style with decorations that are “one thousand nine hundred in those days”. Room size is just enough to put 3 sets of tables and chairs, so it can serve a few guests at a time. But it is thanks to the compact and cozy space that groups of friends when coming to the shop will have the opportunity to talk to each other properly.

The most “eaten” corner at People Eight Stories House is probably the window overlooking Notre Dame Cathedral – one of the leading symbols of Ho Chi Minh City. Whether coming here in the early morning or late afternoon, you can take real “virtual life” photos. The restaurant’s water menu also has a lot of dishes, meticulously decorated such as filter coffee, milk coffee, orange juice, butterfly pea flower, etc. People of Eight Stories House, sip a glass of water and watch the city through the window.

Dream of going to the festival
Hidden in an old apartment complex, Mo Di Hoi is “born” for those who like classic, gentle style. The inside of the shop is full of plants, such as ferns, betel nut, and fortune, so the space is not too large but still very airy. The most favorable position in the restaurant is the seat right next to the large window with a direct view of the beautiful Huyen Si church, which is always chosen by many people when coming to the shop.

Not just a cafe, you can also find home-made dishes here such as dried fish rice, stir-fried quail eggs with tamarind, Duong Chau fried rice, etc. Especially childhood snacks like umbrellas. Mo Di Hoi’s menu is still full from coffee to tea, made entirely from organic ingredients and low in sugar to ensure health. Two dishes you should try when coming to the shop are herbal juice made from licorice, stevia, lotus leaves, ginger, sugar cane and Huyen Sy kombucha with a rather strange taste. Come here, just eat delicious food, drink cool water, and have a “virtual living” corner with Huyen Si church behind.

Mockingbird Coffee
Not only 1 but at Mockingbird Coffee, there are 2 “money” windows facing the State Bank, Saigon River, Mong bridge and are constantly checked-in by young people on social networks. The space of the restaurant is designed in a minimalist style with a bit of retro with peeling walls and wooden tables and chairs placed far apart. No matter where you sit in the restaurant, you can see the whole scene outside very chill.

The water menu of Mockingbird Coffee is quite massive with nearly 40 dishes, including basic dishes such as coffee, tea, crushed ice, etc. Especially creative drinks such as coconut milk butter, galaxy soda, layered cocoa, etc. Besides “virtual living” at the window, many young people often come here to read books because Mockingbird Coffee’s space is relatively quiet. On idle days, stopping by Mockingbird Coffee, sipping a delicious glass of water and watching the city from 2 different angles is also an ideal choice.
