The Hidden Elephant Books & Coffee is both a cute little coffee shop and a bookstore with a large selection of books written in English (which can be difficult to find in Vietnam). The ambiance here is VERY quiet. It is meant to be a place to work or to read, but not to socialize. So you’ll probably find yourself whispering your coffee order to the friendly staff members. 

Hidden Elephant is a great coffee shop to get some work done if you thrive in a very quiet, peaceful environment. They have lots of tea and coffee offerings and a few sweet and savory treat options.

This Saigon coffee shop really is hidden on the second floor with just a small sign to guide you where to go. It’s through a small alleyway and up a small set of stairs. Seating is very limited and people tend to stay awhile so you may want to have a backup plan in case no tables are available.

Location: 2nd Floor, 35 Phan Chu Trinh, Phường Bến Thành, District 1, Ho Chi Minh City
