86 PROOF Whiskey Bar

For over five years, 86 Proof has been where familiar faces welcome you with a strong sense of community. The staff has grown from novices to management, and customers have come along for the ride. Co-founders Rochelle Nguyen and Jason Pham have created a unique establishment that offers world-class cocktails, creative entrepreneurship, and a strong sense of community.

Owner-operators Jason and Rochelle actively participate in the bar’s daily operations. Jason occasionally jumps behind the bar to lend a hand, mainly washing glasses. This embodies their commitment to what Jason calls his “good ol’ old-fashioned Aussie hospitality.”

86 Proof Whiskey Bar offers craft cocktails, an impressive whiskey collection, and a celebration of local spirits. Enjoy Saigon’s finest happy hour with 50% off all alcoholic beverages by the glass from 4-7 PM daily.
