Once in a while, Saigon comes up with something totally unexpected.
Within an hour seeing pictures of Up Cafe Saigon on Facebook, I dashed out to check out this super pretty place.

In case you haven’t notice yet, the theme in Up Cafe is all things upside down. This includes the paintings on the wall.



There are altogether 4 areas to hangout- a few tables outdoor, 1 on the ground level and 2 separate rooms on the second level.


I love the simple but cool inverted lights.

More shots of this really pretty cafe in Saigon, Ho Chi Minh City.








Food there are unfortunately not tasty but cheap given the settings. Beefsteak with rice and beef spaghetti are both at US$2 each. The mango shake cost about US$1.50.



Another point worth mentioning is that the WIFI there are pretty strong.

Hey Jake, you should take a cab there. Address is in the blog.
Many nice cafes in D1. Click on the tag ‘Food’ or ‘Drinks’ to find out more
I have been here, but dont like the space of Up cafe. It’s suitable for the teenage of the Vietnamese.
I felt stuffy when sit here. It ‘s not as nice as the shots was taken.
With the coffee shop, I prefer shipping my drink in an open space with fresh air.
Do you know if there is parking there? I see motorbike parking but what about for a car?
Hi Hang, this Up Cafe do have outdoor sittings
Definitely no place for a car to park Erick.
