Afrocado - Premium Handcrafted Gelato & Dessert in Ho Chi Minh City is a vibrant little pit stop that’s all about fun, flavor, and flair. From the moment you step inside, the quirky interior design, playful wall art, and even a giant plush bear on the couch make the place feel inviting and a little whimsical.
We came during their generous happy hour (10:30am – 3:30pm), where each scoop is 50% off. The gelato was impressively smooth, creamy, and packed with flavor. We tried a few combinations, dark chocolate, mango, and strawberry and every scoop was beautifully presented with details like marshmallow, chocolate curls, strawberry slices, and delicate crisp wafers.
The atmosphere was relaxed, and the staff were friendly and upbeat, offering great suggestions and quick service. It’s clearly a popular spot, with a steady flow of locals and visitors enjoying their treats or lounging with headphones and a coffee.
They also offer unique items like mochi waffles, lavender milk tea, and avocado-themed desserts, in keeping with their quirky “Afrocado” branding. The whole experience felt cheerful and creative, definitely worth a visit if you’re looking for a cool, tasty break in the middle...
Read moreBeautifully hand-crafted gourmet gelato set in an equally beautiful cafe in Ho Chi Minh City:) I enjoyed the Tahitian Vanilla (velvety, rich and distinct notes of vanilla) & Extra Dark Chocolate (intense, pure & creamy) immensely. The 2 lovely servers/ice cream crafters put much heart and care into the intricate details of each flavour, which could be tasted and felt with every scoop. It was a joy getting to know them:) They also very kindly substituted the fruit toppings for the delicious biscuit and cookie crumbs for my preference! Dining in was an intentional and memorable experience. I cannot recommend visiting Afrocado enough & I’ll definitely be...
Read moreA very nice place with an interesting design, but I came specifically for ice cream and I want to say 2 things: This is a medium level ice cream, 3+ out of 5. It is not creamy enough. Ti much water.
The room is very cold. When you eat ice cream, it's not like you come to life and feel that the air conditioner is turned up too much.
in the end: I tried tiramisu, chocolate and strawberry.
Strawberry turned out to be the most tasty. If you are here, try it. You will not regret. The presentation is beautiful. Service is polite and nice. -2 stars only for ice cream taste and I saw cockroach on the floor, that's guys I don't like in...
