So I came to Vietnam to catch up with my daughter. She asked me to meet at her favourite bar, Twist! What a reunion that turned out to be, so I stayed. Now it is my go to spot for live music, especially the open mic on a Wednesday night.
I didn’t know how much and how I missed this place since my work location have been moved to another spot. I went a few of the pubs, bars, lounges,…But this place is the one I only one to reach and drink my only beer flavor-Corona. Cozy place with sofa to stay on and I look around people here. They live in their on little world, they enjoy the drinks and hobbies. A lot of people sames as me, lonely in this town and enjoy the moment, really interesting moment. I work and live really far away from the city. I would take 3.5 hours to reach Thao Dien; however, I absolutely come to this bar to have my Corona and enjoy the same thing like I was. Will always come back here all over again. Thanks all nice staff
this street coffee n bar got my attention with its live music on wednesday night. rather an indie vibe to accompany with a beer. local style table, rather vintage but still comfy. highly recommend take a beer than the cocktails. expats gather around this place because of their vibe and beer. the live music is creative and good enough but the sound system is bad. hence, if you are looking for a place to gather with friends after a pickle ball set, to have a drink before going to club, enjoy morning coffee or searching for a little indie music- this is the place
This place has been on my list awhile and finally went last night for a drink before dinner with my partner. It was a great space to just sit and drink and talk! If we didn’t have dinner plans after, we def would’ve stayed hours just talking, enjoying the atmosphere, and the cocktails! My partner got a whiskey sour and I got the passion fruit mojito and both were very good. We’ll definitely be back. Really good cocktail prices for Thao Dien!!!
