Bia Hoi spot in De Tham Saigon

Bia Hoi spot in De Tham Saigon
If you are looking for a good meeting point and fancy a Bia Hoi (cheap Vietnamese drinking spot) with both locals and travellers you can hit a good one off De Tham.

Head down De Tham to the first corner, turn right at the GO2 bar and 50 metres on the right hand side are two together. The one nearest the alley will squeeze you in and with beer at 12,000 dong a litre you cannot go wrong.
