Great pastries 🍰
Sometimes (especially on weekends) I do not only want a good coffee or drink but also definitely some pastries. These places focus more on the bakery aspect to fulfill that craving.
One of my favorite cafe spots on weekends when the weather is nice. Has the best 소금빵 korean saltbread outside of Korea in my opinion. I definitely recommend the tomato sogeumbang and the regular salt bread. It is a great spot to take pictures for in...

My favorite spot to grab some pastries on the weekend. Big big big fan of their different cinnamon rolls. Their brownies are super moist and chocolaty. Almost go here every weekend. They also have chairs and tables upstairs.

Café Slow | Ho Chi Minh City
The best coffeshop to drink coconut coffee (their signature drink). They also have good bakery stuff. I like their classic canelé but they also have a good variety of different croissants which are delicious.

A very popular small coffee shop, not far from the punk church. They have an ever changing menu but I can recommend the pandan waffle, the earl grey cake and the cappuccino (which reminded me of coffee moi)
