Atmosphere: cozy place with chilled city view Staffs are friendly and kind. The salted coffee was a little bit lack of coffee taste for me so not impressive with this menu. It was after the rain so there were some mosquitos they did the spray yet I was bitten awfully.
As a coffee and coconut lover I never thought someone can create such a delicious combo of them in 1 glass . Pure perfection Worth traveling 4 floor for this amazing experience.
If you're in Ho Chi Minh City and love aromatic Vietnamese coffee, The Balcony is a must-visit! Located on a rooftop opposite Vincom Center, this gem offers not just coffee, but an experience. I had their iced coconut coffee for only 60,000 VND, and it was pure perfection—creamy, flavorful, and absolutely refreshing. What truly sets this cafe apart, though, is the ambiance. The views from the rooftop are priceless—tranquil and scenic, offering a peaceful escape from the city's hustle. It's the perfect spot to chill, relax, and soak in the vibes of HCMC. The coffee alone is worth it, but the atmosphere makes it 100x better. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a cozy rooftop cafe to unwind. Don’t miss out!
I enjoyed a nice egg coffee and fruit plate while my wife enjoyed a mango smoothie. It was much cooler up here than on the street level with a nice breeze. Loved the abundance of plants they have all around as well.
Perched on the top floor, this cafe has a very chill and laid back vibe! The view was good and there was a breeze.. we ordered the Sunset drink which was very pretty,a nice place to hangout after climbing the stairs and shopping.
As many people mentioned, the view from this cafe is truly amazing, and the Matcha drink I had was even better, with a rich, creamy texture that left a lasting impression. The cafe is a hidden gem, tucked away on the balcony of a charming clothing store, offering a unique and cozy atmosphere. Located on the 4th floor, it provides a sense of escape from the bustling city below. There is also a well-maintained toilet available, which is a thoughtful touch that adds to the overall convenience and comfort of the experience.
Favorite place in Saigon so far. I ordered Egg coffee and Sausage, both were unbeatable in taste. The atmosphere was peaceful with a cool breeze. Imagine sitting on a balcony overlooking major buildings with neon and city lights sipping coffee. Magical scenery. The way to get to Balcony coffee is also historic because you get to take the stairs instead of the antique elevator. Worth the climb if I say so myself.
