The 5 Best Places to Shop For Healthy Foods in Vietnam
Vietnam has always been a country that loves and celebrates food, and it’s generally very healthy, relying more on fresh herbs, vegetables, and lean protein.
Over the years, another kind of wellness has taken place, where there’s a growing community embracing various diets, such as organic, vegan, and sustainable living. With this, multiple health food stores in Vietnam have also emerged.
If you’re trying to live a healthy and cleaner lifestyle as well, these stores will make it easier for you to start.
How much do organic/healthy foods cost in Vietnam?
In Vietnam, organic and healthy foods often cost 2 to 3 times more than at regular markets. For example, a regular 10-egg carton typically costs 28,000 VND, while the organic ones can cost up to 70,000 VND.

Address: 40 Đ. Nguyễn Cừ, Thảo Điền, Thủ Đức, Hồ Chí Minh
Phone: +84888991331
Business hours: Monday to Sunday, 7 AM–9:30 PM
Légumes is your one-stop shop for any healthy stuff that you may need: groceries, healthy bowls, healthy snacks, and other whole-food dishes. They also stock dry goods, such as powders, grains, nuts, and so on.
On top of that, they also have a cafè that offers freshly baked breads, sandwiches, fresh juices, and more.
The cafè/store has a good selection of products for any diet type, whether it’s vegan, gluten-free, or dairy-free. Even their smoothie bowls can be customized according to your diet (for weight loss, detox, etc.)
So, if you need a healthy snack on the go or a quick purchase for your essentials, Légumes is a great spot. If you can’t drop by in person, you can order online via their website or Grab.
Considering the location, great selection, and freshness of the food, it’s one of the most affordable spots you can find in the area.
However, the service can be a little slow at times.
Great
“Legumes is a great vegan-friendly store. The staff is helpful and knowledgeable. The products at Legumes are carefully selected and crafted. There are gluten-free options as well. The deli shop is quick. Legumes have fresh-baked goods as well. Perfect place for nutritious options.”

This is one of my favourite stores in Saigon
“Everything is home-made, with quality, simple ingredients at a good price point. It is perfect for vegans and anybody who is health-conscious or wants to try Vietnamese classic snacks without all of the MSG and chemicals. You can also buy huge bags of nuts at really reasonable prices, again, all natural without chemicals or additives. I couldn’t recommend this store enough to people looking for healthy, natural food.”

2. Organic Food VN – Hồ Chí Minh
Address: 93 Đường Trần Não, Phường An Khánh, Thủ Đức, Hồ Chí Minh
Phone: +84931771088
Business hours: Monday to Sunday, 7 AM–8 PM
If you’re looking for a grocery store that only sells natural and organic products from fresh meats all the way to cosmetics, Organic Food is the place to go. The company operates in several locations across Saigon, so they’re accessible across districts.
Since Organic Food has a larger scale, it stocks both local and imported items and supports home delivery/online ordering in HCMC.
Although their products are a little expensive, especially the imported ones, many customers find that it’s worth the price.
So, if you’re looking for high-quality and certified organic products, the store is worth a try.
On some occasions, the store offers combo item discounts for bulk orders and repeat buying.
This is a GREAT store
“It has a wide range of organic products, is regularly stocked, has terrific fresh organic fruit and vegetables, an excellent and friendly staff, all inside a lovely store.”

3. Naturally Vietnam – Hà Nội
Address: 67/12/4, ngõ 67 Đ. Tô Ngọc Vân, Quảng An, Tây Hồ, Hà Nội
Phone: +84789090158
Business hours: Monday to Sunday, 7:30 AM–7:30 PM
Naturally Vietnam is a small grocery store in Hanoi offering a wide selection of organic and natural products.
You’ll find displays of organic breads, fresh meats and seafood, and household products. The store has almost everything you need, considering its size.
You might even find some hard-to-find local organic brands and imported items you don’t usually find in regular supermarkets.
They can do home delivery throughout Hanoi and nearby zones as well. This is the best option, especially on some days when the store gets crowded, like weekends — they even offer a free delivery for orders over 200,000 VND.
Small shop, but they have almost everything you need!
“Nice selection of international quality organic products, including vegan. Vegan ice cream and sorbet are delicious! A walk-in refrigerator full of fresh fruit and vegetables. They also sell fresh fish, chicken, meat, and free-range eggs. They tell me fresh salmon on Friday afternoons. Nice selection of wine. They also carry natural cleaning products.”

Convenient
“While living nearby, we got almost everything from them, and I’ve never felt better! Their fruits and veggies are amazing, and their free-range chicken breast and eggs are so delicious—you can’t find anything like it in the supermarket. Their weekend grilled chicken with herbs is a must-try!”

4. Xanh Xanh Market – Hội An
Address: 580A Cửa Đại, Cẩm Châu, Hội An, Quảng Nam
Business hours: Monday to Sunday, 6:30 AM–10 PM
Xanh Xanh is the first store to bring clean and organic food to Hoi An. It’s dedicated to bringing a green and clean lifestyle to all communities in the city and at the same time, supports Vietnamese agricultural products.
Inside the shop, you’ll find various items like fresh produce, meat products, chemical-free hygiene/cleaning products, and imported goods.
Although most of their grocery items, like wines and dry goods, they are often hard-to-find products, hence the expensive price.
And just right outside the store, they have a stall that sells fresh fruit juice and smoothies.
Interesting
“This market shop caught my attention because, as a foreigner, I was surprised by the variety of products carrying organic or bio labels. There’s a good selection of snacks and special items that you don’t always find in regular markets. Prices are a bit higher than in other shops, which is expected for organic products, but it’s still interesting to browse. Personally, I wouldn’t come here for fruits, but for packaged snacks or unique organic finds, it’s worth a visit. I picked up a few small items and then treated myself to a smoothie outside. The smoothie was a little pricey compared to similar ones elsewhere, but it was a pleasant way to end the visit. Just sitting down and enjoying it after exploring the store.”

5. Soumaki – Hồ Chí Minh
Address: 42 Lý Tự Trọng, Bến Nghé, Quận 1, Hồ Chí Minh
Phone: +84326238700
Business hours: Monday to Sunday, 10 AM–9 PM
Soumaki offers customizable, healthy bowls where customers can choose a base (rice/beans), protein, vegetables, sauces, and more. You can choose among the preset “sou-made bowls” or completely build your own.
Plus, they emphasize using minimal oil, additives and using cooking techniques that preserve the protein’s moisture and nutrients.
Another thing is, Soumaki offers a weekly plan/consultancy service where they help customers plan bowls over a week, depending on the calorie/dietary goals. And for people who track their diet goals, they also provide macronutrient info for their bowls.
Soumaki’s bowls can be enjoyed dine-in, takeaway, or online ordering. They also do catering services for offices or events.
Although a little more expensive, the restaurant’s bowls are indeed high-quality and provide a healthy and balanced meal on the go.
Delish
“I had a great experience at this place! The food is delicious, especially if you’re looking for high-protein options. I tried the chicken & steak bowl and the full steak bowl—both were really tasty and well-seasoned. Portions were generous, and everything felt fresh and satisfying. Highly recommend if you’re into clean, protein-packed meals!”

A café with healthy options
“You can build your own meal or choose a prepared one. They have vegan options as well. It’s great that they list the calories for each item and ready-made bowl. A go-to place if you’re trying to eat healthy.”
