⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Super working environment , tasty coffee and good food.
Been visiting “The Workshop” since around 2017, for sure , the service has continued to improve and so has the quality of food and drinks.
Located at the top of a building in the Old Center of Saigon , a very enjoyable walk up to the top of the building.
The coffee shop/ restaurant has an impressive size open space for working, sitting or relaxing. The tables are very big . Not to keen on the chairs though.
Enjoy

The Workshop Coffee is a very good choice to work in Ho Chi Minh. The cafe has a spacious and modern interior, with plenty of tables and power outlets. You can see a lot of people working on their laptops here, creating a productive and creative atmosphere. The wifi is fast and reliable.
The coffee is delicious and varied, with options ranging from espresso to cold brew to Vietnamese drip. They also have a wide selection of teas, juices, and smoothies. The food is tasty and satisfying, with dishes such as sandwiches, salads, pasta, and burgers. I tried the creamy chicken risotto with peas and it was delicious.
I highly recommend The Workshop Coffee for anyone who works on their laptops and enjoys good coffee and food. It is one of the best cafes in Ho Chi Minh, and I will definitely come back again.

If you’re staying in D1 and want a nice coffee experience during your trip to HCMC this is a great place to go. Lots of different coffee options and the menu is always changing.
There are a bunch of stairs to go up but for being in the top floor of an old building, once you’re inside the temperature is great.
The food options are also very good and never disappoint. The price is also a good deal considering the quality of the food and the location.
Took my family here on their visit to Vietnam and they still talk about this place.

Workshop Egg Benedict
It’s probably one of my favourite cafes to do work at. They have a wide selection of coffee drinks, the flat white is pretty decent and their food is delicious as well.
A lot of people are here with their laptops working so it’s pretty “digital nomad-friendly” and the noise level is not too bad considering a lot of people talking and the coffee machines working (coming from someone who likes to work with some background noise so take with a grain of salt). They also play chill music which really elevates the ambiance of the place :)

Came here for breakfast. Food was well executed, especially the eggs benedict!
They have a pretty good selection of coffee drinks. Hot cafe latte was a little on the milky side, would have loved for a stronger coffee taste. Americano tasted great though! The cold brew latte was pretty nice with a syrup served on the side.
Do give this place a go, not just for the drinks.

Workshop Egg Benedict
Tried the circus cold brew. Reading the menu thought there would be circus syrup. When it’s served it’s purely the cold brew. Asked the staff they mention the cold brew was brewed with the circus in.
The taste of the circus is within the cold brew itself. It’s not the sour type, but the refreshing feeling.
Served with too much ice though.
The bacon croissant is good. Bacon at the most inner layer of the croissant.
A difficult place to find, small entrance and need to go up for 3 level of stairs.
Worth finding and travelling to!

Iced Latte
A must visit if you like your coffee. Very knowledgeable baristas and a wide range of coffee selections. The design is industrial cool and the food menu looks good too. Service is impeccable.
One thing I noticed: it can get a bit warm at times, 2-3 degrees less would make a big difference.

I’ve tried a couple, but so far Workshop had the best coffee for me in Saigon. You can choose from the traditional espresso experience or the more craft-like brewing options where you unlock differently roasted (medium and light roast, washed method) beans to level up on the taste. I like the light roast, fruity coffees made with an espresso machine, unfortunately the specialty coffees can only be selected for V60, French press and other brewing except one, the specialty lungo, but that’s a bit too watery for me. Anyway, that was still the closest I could get to a light brew specialty flat white, and it was great. They also have amazing sweet bits.

Price is higher than average, and the location / vibes is good with nice music. Food taste good.
Ordered the smoke salmon brekkie at 180K and the flat white.
Location is slightly harder to find as you need to climb the stairs to the highest level.
Would recommend eating the local food & having local coffee given the same price.
Total damage to wallet is 265K for a coffee and a main.. ouch.
Really enjoyed having a coffee at this place. The atmosphere was very chill and they have unique coffee options. Recommended the triple berry cold brew.
