“ Staff are really friendly and knowledgeable. The pups are adorable, they each have their own stories that explain their unique personalities. Food & Bev are delicious, they offer healthy, vegetarian and vegan options. Got an oreo cake today and it was yummy, not too sweet! ”
“ Extremely lovely experience! All the dogs are super cute, well behaved and affectionate - You really do contribute to the rescue organisation rather than some “aesthetics pet coffee shop”. Overall everything has made a dull Saturday feel great again Thanks to the team doing such an amazing work ”
“ A wonderful place to relax with the joy of fur friends roaming between play areas and tables in this spacious indoor-outdoor cafe. The service is so accommodating by the staff with warm greetings and intros to their place with guidance on the best way to interact with the dogs. I stopped by to energize before jogging in the neighborhood. Had a refreshing strawberry banana smoothie and fresh coconut in the outdoor seating. I’ve really enjoyed their iced teas as well. Looking forward to returning to dine in. I’m so excited they have a vegan food menu to cater to my diet too. WagWel is an amazing place not to miss! ”
“ What an amazing experience. All staff show compassion with a true understanding of animal behaviour. The food is delicious. The staff are attentive, super friendly and adore the animals. A calm and happy atmosphere where the animals are loved and safe. Where better to have a relaxing breakfast in the best company? ”
“ Lovely dog/cat cafe, fostering/helping rescues while entertaining guests (new concept, love it). Been visiting way before they merged (when the cat cafe was still on Dien Bien Phu St.). Guests can even bring their own pets (for a price ofc) and there's even a swimming pool for the pups, a great way for them to beat the crazy Saigon heat There are clear indications to set boundaries/stay safe (since not all rescues are friendly). The cats do be eyeing my drinks a lil too often The price is a bit too much for me (although understandable as it's for the rescues). Will be visiting again bc i miss these babies ”
“ Cute dogs for a good cause. You can tell they’re well looked after by the staff. The cats are also very well behaved. Clean grounds and restroom, and the food was great too! Would definitely return if I could ”
“ This is such a lovely place, nice music and service, safe parking. The swimming pool is available for humans and pets and it is clean. There is a floor for cats and down is for dogs, it is very spacious. Nice food and many options. ”
“ Frankly I am in love with this place. The dogs and cats are well-looked after. You can see the way they get along with the staff - the best way to know how well the animals are treated. The food and drink is excellent and the space is super clean and comfortable. Absolutely love it here . HIGHLY recommend, please go - enjoy the sweet animals and support a true and good cause ”
