Huu Duyen Herbal Tea

Hữu Duyên Herbal Tea is a long-standing traditional Chinese herbal tea shop on Nguyễn Trãi Street in District 5, Ho Chi Minh City. The shop serves various types of herbal teas, known locally as ‘nước sâm’. This establishment is recognized for its decades-long history in the Chợ Lớn area. The menu features both hot and cold beverages, prepared according to traditional recipes. Signature offerings include a cooling herbal tea and a more complex 24-flavor herbal tea. The drinks are brewed from a blend of natural roots, seeds, and plants. The shop operates from a simple, street-front setting. Its facade preserves a classic style reminiscent of 1990s Hong Kong. This look includes patterned floor tiles, a hand-painted sign, and a prominent stainless steel drink cart. The venue primarily offers takeaway service, with limited sidewalk seating available. Customers can purchase individual glasses or larger bottles to take home. The shop is a well-known destination for both local residents seeking traditional refreshments and visitors exploring the cultural heritage of the city’s Chinatown. The business has maintained its traditional methods of preparation and service for over fifty years. Another branch of Hữu Duyên operates on Ngô Quyền Street, also in District 5.
