Yoko Cafe
Yoko is an extraordinary venue with a mix of both evening screenings and excellent performances from local and foreign musicians. The only downside seems to appear when you are allergic to cigarettes as the place allows smoking inside. Other than that, I have nothing to say about this place but praises: warm, cozy, and good music.

These look like really rad bars that I would go to if I ever visit Saigon.
I love to travel but don’t get to as often as I would like. I’ll live vicariously through your photos.
I love live music! This is an amazing post. I love how you included all of the relevant info.
All of these sound like they would be so much fun! I would love to visit and experience them.
Sounds interesting. This is a nice post. Thanks for sharing
Great list!! I also recommend The Crib, a relatively new bar/cafe on Bui Vien. They provide live acoustic music every night and it’s a great place to meet friendly people. It is also free to listen 🙂
This is actually helpful, thanks.
