Find a coffee and movie companion in Ho Chi Minh City

Saigon has endless cafés and cinemas, but not always a friend who is free. On ThueMi you can book a coffee and movie companion: an identity-verified person who joins you as a friend, at a time and place you both agree on.

Area and place ideas in Ho Chi Minh City

Pick places that are public, busy and easy to reach. These are types of places, not specific venues, because prices and opening hours change; check before you go.

• Street-front cafés on busy roads in District 1 and District 3: good for a first meeting.
• Cinemas inside shopping malls: walk around or grab a snack afterwards, with security and people nearby.
• Nguyễn Huệ walking street: a stroll and a takeaway drink in the early evening.
• Nguyễn Văn Bình book street: quieter, with books as an easy conversation starter.
• The Saigon riverside around Bạch Đằng wharf: best in daylight or early evening while it is busy.
• Saigon Zoo and Botanical Gardens in the daytime: green and spacious, good if you dislike sitting still.

Avoid empty cafés, deep alleys and closed karaoke rooms; private places are not allowed under ThueMi rules.

Timing and planning

• Daytime or early evening works best; late afternoon or an air-conditioned cinema helps with the heat.
• Check the companion's minimum hours and leave buffer time for rush-hour traffic.
• Agree a simple plan in ThueMi chat: where you meet, which film, when it ends.

Who pays for drinks and tickets?

The companion's price usually does not include drinks, tickets or snacks unless the package says so. These are extra costs: agree who pays and write it in the booking or ThueMi chat. Companions may not ask for anything beyond the booking total and the extra costs written down. Each companion sets their own price within ThueMi's limits (per hour 30.000đ to 3.000.000đ, per session 50.000đ to 20.000.000đ); see reference prices on ThueMi. Illustrative example: a 150.000đ/hour package booked for 3 hours totals 450.000đ, excluding drinks and tickets.

Choosing a film and keeping conversation easy

Ask in chat whether your companion minds horror or violent films; comedy or animation are safe picks. Start with light topics, listen as much as you talk, don't press for personal details, never comment on someone's body, and respect the "Yes / No" boundaries on their profile. Bring a light jacket for the cinema.

Safety

• Companions verify identity with their CCCD, checked manually by ThueMi staff.
• 18+ only for both customers and companions.
• Meet in public, busy places written in the booking; arrange your own transport; don't go to a second place not agreed in chat; keep your drink in sight.
• Pay the companion directly: bank transfer only to the account shown in the booking's transfer details, or pay at the meeting. Never pay to details sent in chat. ThueMi never receives booking money.
• Use location sharing and the SOS button; in danger call 113 or 115. Report and block anything that feels wrong.
