In Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City), where the food scene is always evolving, the humble Sunday roast has found its footing. From traditional British pubs to upscale bistros and hidden gems, the city is serving up a hearty helping of home-style comfort. If you’re an expat craving a taste of home then look no further! Here’s your definitive guide to the best Sunday roasts in Saigon, featuring favourites that’ll leave you full and happy.

1. Union Jack’s Fish & Chips 

If you’re craving a British roast that’ll transport you straight back to the UK, Union Jack’s Fish & Chips is a spot you simply can’t miss. In the expat-friendly Thao Dien neighbourhood, this cosy spot is best known for serving what many claim is the best fish and chips in Vietnam. But their Sunday Roast is every bit as worthy of praise.

The menu features succulent roast pork with Bramley apple sauce, sausage meat & sage stuffing with gravy that ties it all together. Prefer poultry or lamb? Their roast chicken and lamb options is just as satisfying. Or you can opt for the mixed roast (pork, lamb and chicken breast) if you’re feeling extra peckish.

Vegetarians aren’t left out either, the veggie sausage roll is a thoughtful and hearty alternative. Served with all the trimmings, this roast hits every nostalgic note.
