Nette vegane Bäckerei

Die Auswahl ist nicht riesig, schmeckt aber gut. Croissants könnten saftiger sein, aber sind trotzdem sehr lecker 🥰🥐

Pros: Süße Ladenaufmachung, Nette Bedienung

Zu wenig

Das Gebäck ist gut und die preise dafür auch fair.
Der Kaffee war aber winzig mit zwei schlücken schon leer und das salzige gebäck kann ich auch nicht so empfehlen

Delicious French patisserie in Saigon

Lovely buttery French flavour, friendly staff, delicious! And really cheap (compared to Australia!)! Only downside is they didn’t take card.

Cons: Didn’t take credit card

Great coffee

So nice to be able to indulge and get a proper vegan Vietnamese coffee with a vegan condensed milk. I had the tiramisu flavour and got a small vegan pizza bread which was delicious! You can sit on the street outside.

Bakery for Vegans!

Didn’t have banh mi when I went, but the chocolate croissant and tamarind over drink were perfect for the hot weather.

Good coffee

When we went they only had rolls and coffee - so we didn’t get to try the banh mi.

The coffee was great - we tried corn coffee which tasted lovely.

Omg, missed such stuff soo much

So glad to have found this! The donut was amazing, the pain au chocolat a bit dry but definitely not worse than anything I had in Paris. Really nice! The prices are also more than affordable, especially given Saigon price standard. Definitely recommend!

P.S.: Try their salted caramel donut!!!! It's the best!

Nice but expensive

Went here for a banh mi, which was quite expensive (65k) compare to other banh mi-places. Also located at a crowded street, so you can't really enjoy sitting in front of the store. Lady working there was really nice and spoke English.

Pros: Friendly personnel

Cons: Quite pricy

Thank you, Nien!

Just to kindly clarify, our bánh mìs range from 45k-55k per portion. Our ‘O Plant-based Traditional Bánh Mì’ is 45k (the one you had purchased) and our ‘O Plant-based Special Bánh Mì’ is 55k. In regards to pricing, we do make everything in-house! The aromatic plant-based patê, pickled vegetables, grilled bbq oyster mushrooms, and the fresh Vietnamese baguette! Our ‘O Plant-based Fresh Vietnamese Baguette’ uses traditional fermentation methods to ensure secure gut-health. We take pride in not using preservatives, leavening agents, or crisping agents to provide a 100% natural and clean product!

It was wonderful to have you, thank you for stopping by!

Some good some not so good

Banh Mi was very good minus the chewy mushrooms. Rose Tea was excellent. Savory pastries not my favorite. Desserts in the fridge. Hoping to try the pastries next time.

Pros: Banh Mi , Rose Tea, Fully vegan

Cons: Chewy mushrooms , Savory pastries just ok

Thank you for the feedback, Jay!

We are so delighted to hear that you liked the lychee rose tea.

Our ‘O Plant-based’ bánh mì uses grilled bbq mushrooms for a chewy “meatier” texture to resemble the beloved taste of traditional Vietnamese-style proteins.

In addition, please don’t hesitate to let us know on how we are able to improve our ‘pate chaud’ and ‘samosa’. The lamination? Filling texture? Flavor profile? We continuously strive to progress the quality of our products, to ensure: fulfillment and satisfaction.

We highly value your candor and hope to hear from you soon! The kindness regards.

Nice but not a real bread

I was very happy to try vegan sweets after long time. There are many options to choose from: pastries, mousses, tarts or Banh mi. The staff is super nice and speaks English. My pastries (especially pain au chocolat) turned out to be very crunchy when originally they supposed to be super fluffy😒

Thank you for the honesty! We heavily value your constructive feedback, it allows for us to progress our recipes. Your purchase was made a few months ago in regards to the almond croissant and pain au chocolat; as a result, we have recently updated our lamination process to include more moisture. The interior of our pastries are now a lot fluffier with the added hydration! Hopefully you’ll give us another try.

Interesting "egg" coffee and many baked goods

We tried the pate chaud, pain au chocolat, one donut and the tiramisu. Everything was tasty. The "egg" coffee was interesting. It didn't taste like coffee because there was so much cream. But for trying out its okay.

Don’t even have this in Manchester

Tiny but really cool cafe with plenty of options. We had Pan Au Chocolate, croissant, cinnamon swirl, creamy cashew latte and an egg coffee which is the first time I’ve seen a vegan egg coffe in Vietnam

Pros: Only vegan egg coffee in Vietnam , First proper vegan bakes we’ve had in SEA

Finally vegan pastries

Such a great feeling when you can choose what you want 🥐🍰🥧🌱

💰 Prices for pastries are really fair! Coffee is a bit more

🥐 Pain au Chocolate and croissants will be warmed up when ordered. Pain of chocolate could be bir more creamy but we came late in the afternoon so maybe I'm the morning they are bit more fresh.

🥐 Plain Croissant (20k VND) - 0,80$
🍫🥐 Pain au Chocolat (30k VND) - 1,20$
☕ Cashew Latte (48k VND) - 1,80$

Would definitely come again!

Yummy!

Nice little bakery with a full vegan menu! Unfortunately a part of the menu is only available from 9.30 am, so we could not try. The Banh mi is very good, the tarts were also delicious. There is a construction site on the opposite side of the road, so it is very noisy there.😒

Pros: selection of goods, friendly staff, Taste

Cons: noisy place

Expensive ice cream

The ice cream jumped from 35 to 45 to 50 in a few weeks. They also put a lot less in the cone making it much worse value than competitors.

Friendly service and a good selection of vegan desserts and savouries. However the sweet pastry on the savoury items must be an acquired taste and one o haven’t acquired yet!

Superb!!!

I always find it difficult to have vegan pastry when I travel. But this place is like a dream comes true with all vegan stuff, from pastry to desserts and drinks. Their bread looked small but was full of fillings and well-seasoned. The pastry was amazingly crunchy and not overly sweet. So was the mousse. The coffee however was a bit sweet for me as I forgot to tell them not to put sugar/sweeteners in. But overall, it was superb

Vegan pastries!!

It was so nice to have some vegan pastries again after a long time. The chocolate croissant was really nice. The almond croissant was not amazing. I was there quite late, so the pastries are probably fresh and nicer in the morning. Super sweet english speaking staff as well. I would definitely go back!

Very very delicious bakes

Delicious almond pastry & pain a chocolat. We got a coffee too, a cashew cream one, which was a too sweeet, but this is probably from preference, the texture was great, would just ask for it less sweet next time if possible.
