Chill Skybar

BARCHICK SAYS

The clue’s in the name guys - no mysteries here. This is the place to come when you want to chill with a view of that Saigon skyline. Dreamy. It’s not all city scenery though. This is also the place to see-and-be-seen, so get your glad rags on.

Pitch up before sunset so you can see the sun sink, before Ho Chi Minh is plunged into inky nighttime. Chill Skybar got one of the sickest views, there’s no doubt. Watching the chaotic mesh of motorbike lights below and the neighboring highrises is loads better than paying for the overpriced observation deck at Bitexco a few kilometers away. BarChick also appreciated the cool spacey decor. Bathrooms are like mini clubs, with enough wavy walls and LEDs to make your loo break a quasi-hallucinatory experienc

There are nightly DJs who like to bring the party vibes, and Chill have a knack for pulling in stunners, celebs, wealth-flashers and curious travelers to their rooftop bar-lounge-eatery hybrid. Cocktails here won’t blow your socks off, but nonetheless Chill has some good mixes that take Vietnamese and Western ingredients and smash them into some novel sippers sure to raise an eyebrow or at least get an appreciative nod. Easiest way not to get harried by the sometimes pushy staff is get a table with a group and then break off for a sophisticated romp under the smoggy night sky.
