Bars and Clubs
There are lots of bars and clubs in Saigon. For simplicity sake, I’m breaking them out into three categories — For those who haven’t read my blog much, I tend to like middle of the road to high end spots so, you’re not gonna find many write-ups here for backpacker style travel. One of these days I might just add a list for Pham Ngũ Laõ street which is where a lot of that stuff exists. This is not an all inclusive list, just the places I tend to like and, I think you will too!
