Malt Saigon

The draft list draws from across the Saigon brewing landscape, with Pasteur Street, Heart of Darkness, Belgo, East West and Steersman all on rotation, so you can work through four or five local breweries without moving. It skews towards the established rather than the experimental, which makes it an ideal first stop for newcomers to the scene.

Close to the Opera House and Bitexco Financial Tower, it's the natural after-work pint for the business district and handy from District 1 hotels. It's non-smoking, and garlic truffle fries and Reuben sandwiches give it a gastropub edge.
