Bars, Bars and More Bars!
The Polo Bar
It's safe to say that Saigon has its fair share of bars. This is not a bad things as bars are where you go to meet friends, hang out, eat lunch, catch up on sport news, and just enjoy a few drinks.
Also, bars are where you go after work to unwind and relax.
And when I need to unwind after work and have a drink, the first port of call is nearly always the Polo Bar.
And ironically the Polo Bar was probably the first bar I ever visited when I came to Saigon, and it is still my favorite bar to this very day.
I still remember my first visit to the Polo Bar as well.
This is because, having a big neon sign offering massages next to the door, the Polo bar has a somewhat seedy looking entrance.
But despite the apprehension given the big neon sign offering massages, I trusted my friends and I walked up the steep flight 
of steps that looked like they led up to God knows what kind of carnal pleasure.
At the top of the stairs I walked through the door on the right, and entered into a bar that has become like a second home ever since.
This is because, with a good group of regulars and a group of bar girls who are friendly and chatty, the atmosphere at Polo is always vibrant, friendly, and inviting.
This close-nit nature that develops at Polo was best illustrated by the Christmas Party held last Christmas, where the bar put on free food for everyone, and all the bar girls were dressed up in rather fetching little school girl outfits.
By the end of the night, food and confectionary was being thrown around the room at anyone within range, and everyone had a good time and left with a smile.
It is this lively, friendly and cozy atmosphere that makes the Polo Bar so good.You know that when you visit you will be made welcome and that the company will be good.
