The teahouse, Zentea, is situated in a quaint valley on Dien Bien Phu Street in Binh Thanh District.

Zentea keeps its drink prices flexible, allowing customers to determine their own value for the drinks they consume and the service they receive. We believe in customer-centric pricing, enabling our valued customers to decide the appropriate amount they are willing to pay based on their experience.

Customers can show their satisfaction by putting money into the designated small box placed on the shelf. The funds collected through these contributions are utilized for the upkeep and smooth functioning of the teahouse.

“Zentea was officially introduced in May 2018 with the purpose of establishing a serene haven for individuals seeking respite from their busy lives. Our goal is to provide a welcoming atmosphere where everyone can feel at ease,” stated Duong Huu Thuan, a dedicated member of our youthful team managing the teahouse.

“You have the independence to curate your own tea experience, hand-picking the ideal brewing vessel, selecting your preferred cups, and pairing it with a delectable assortment of cookies. Indulge in the pleasure of brewing your tea in a manner that resonates with your personal taste and preferences.”

Zentea is an establishment founded by a group of young individuals who possess a deep love for the diverse range of flavors found in tea and dried flowers. Their vision is to create a space where people can rejuvenate themselves following a demanding schedule of academics and professional commitments.
