A very nice bar and restaurant in a quiet part of Saigon. Nice and relaxing. Cold beer, great English food and good service.

Loved the bangers and mash and in portions guaranteed to not leave you hungry after. After my first visit I took my friends there who are all westerners and were craving decent western food and none were disappointed. The burger was a hit and washed down with an icy cold beer you would be hard pressed to find anything as... More

I agree total with one of the other guest that this small place should not rank in the TOP to avoid newcomers facing disappointing visits. As it is no where near the standards of all the others in HCMC restaurant listings. It's just a corner outlet run by an expat and his wife, so for local visit OK but not... More

Best breakfasts, sausage rolls and pies in Saigon. The service is great with English radio. Oh, and the beer is freezing cold...

I have been lucky to enough to visit Cafe Alex numerous times over the past few years and each time I leave happy and looking forward to coming back again. Cafe Alex is ona quiet little street so you dont have to worry about the hectic traffic that affects other restaurants in the city. Chris is a fantastic host that... More

They even have veg sausages so it's next on our list to try. Chris and his wife are super nice folks, very friendly and not at all intrusive. For all the... More

I came here one morning for breakfast recently expecting a lot. Instead I got some stale bread with fried eggs and some old bacon.... More

Returned to Cafe Alex for the second time, first visit was for breakfast with my partner, which is fantastic, especially the sausages (best I have had in 4 years in Vietnam), went back for lunch today and tried the liver and bacon, absolutely great and so authentic (reminded me of my Grandmothers), Chris is a great host, friendly but in...

There is a tendency in TripAdvisor to rank new entrants very high in the ranking when there are few excellent reviews. No offense to Chris and the cheering customers but Cafe Alex has nothing to do at the top of over 700 restaurants in Saigon, before some fine dining places like Trois Gourmands. This is a small western eatery with... More
