Cheese Coffee Pasteur is a contemporary café on Pasteur, District 1, Ho Chi Minh City, that serves specialty drinks. The branch sits near the corner of Nguyễn Công Trứ in the downtown financial quarter. It occupies a multi-story shophouse close to the historic State Bank of Vietnam building. John Trung Nguyễn co-founded the homegrown Cheese Coffee chain in Ho Chi Minh City in 2016.
The venue opened this location in early 2023 with a distinct nineteenth-century Parisian aesthetic. A deep green awning displaying gilded serif letters covers the outdoor street patio. Inside, the two-level layout features dark wood paneling, brass accents, vintage chandeliers, and red floor tiles. Glass botanical display cases and retro study desks reference French scientist Louis Pasteur.
The beverage counter prepares signature Full Leaf milk teas using whole tea leaves from Bảo Lộc. Baristas brew espresso drinks, cold-whisked matcha, and layered Marble Caffè with imported cheese foam. The kitchen bakes European-style pastries throughout the day. Offerings include layered butter croissants, cream crepe cakes, and fruit-topped puddings.
The café draws office workers, university students, and neighborhood commuters. Seating spreads across casual street-side wicker chairs and quiet second-floor tables. Staff serve customers for dine-in visits and quick takeaway orders from early morning until late evening. Prices remain in the accessible mid-tier bracket for central District 1 coffee shops. The brand operates more than twenty locations across Vietnam.
