The Sancara Caffe story — a garden café at 23A Tu Xuong

A brand-new shop (late 2025), a garden in the city's heart.

Sancara Caffe opened in late 2025 in a townhouse on Tu Xuong street, District 3 — and quickly became a work crowd's haunt: a gravel yard, big terrazzo tables, brown leather chairs, plants everywhere, and a glass skylight pouring sun onto the tables.

The owner hires her own baristas — recruitment posts under Ms. Ngan's name ran across Saigon café job groups through 2026. The shop is built from honest materials: a copper-clad bar, speckled terrazzo tops, wood, leather — and a teal sign that glows after dark.

The signature is egg coffee. Desserts arrive on red plates — a tic only Sancara has. And the red velvet armchair by the glass windows, in a photo taken by the owner herself, is the boldest color note in the whole brown-toned room.
