Cosy little cocktail bar hidden down an alley in the heart of Saigon - on Pasteur St.

Small cocktall bars are surprisingly rare in Saigon so The Alley’s a little gem. Perfect for a quiet drink.

Tan the owner has years of experience mixing for Hyatt hotels, so he knows what he’s doing. The Alley focuses on well made, reasonably priced cocktails, in a great little social space.

Non-smoking inside - we love that too.

The Alley’s right by our little Saigon home - The Old Compass Cafe. If you’re in the area, come by and say hi.
