Hands down the best Vietnamese coffee in the Bay Area! This review has been a long time coming, but I'm finally getting to it.My go-to summer drink is the Coco Freeze--I get it at 75% sweetness, and it's perfect! Surprisingly, it's not too sweet even at that level. My other favorite (almost every weekend) is the Muoi, a Vietnamese coffee with salted cream. The consistency here is impressive--every drink is just as good as the last.The shop itself is pretty small, so it's not really a place to hang out. But they make ordering super easy through the Square app. The drinks come out fast, so if you're about 20 minutes away, I'd recommend ordering when you're around 10 minutes out. They do refrigerate drinks if you're running late, but if you're like me and hate melted ice watering things down, this is a good tip to keep in mind!

We were so excited to see some of the Vietnamese coffee options we loved when we went to Vietnam, but sadly we were a bit disappointed by this place. We got the Muoi (salt cream) coffee and the ube, and the cream on the salt coffee was amazing but we really did not like the actual coffee they used for either drink. It was bitter and burnt, and while the creams added a nice creaminess, the coffee wasn't smooth and we just didn't really enjoy it. Particularly we were very disappointed by the ube, it didn't taste like ube at all and had a very bitter unpleasant taste, we ended up just throwing it away. The salt coffee was better towards the end when it was mostly just the cream and not much of that coffee flavor left lol. Unfortunately while a lot of potential, I would not recommend.

Fell in love with this spot and found myself coming here 3 times that first week...we love 40mins away. Goes to show how much my family enjoyed the rich tea flavor with a blend of their sweetener and milk. The only downside was the 3rd time we went the boba was stiff and stale around 12-1p. Service is fine, nothing special and not really engaging but the drink quality makes up for it. Definitely one of the best tea flavors we've experienced in the bay area. Ambiance, its cute but always a full store so there's not a lot of privacy or personal space lol!

Lacaphe hits the spot! The coffee itself is around a medium strength (opposed to other spots which are bolder), so you can enjoy without letting the ice dilute for a more balanced sip. This is a great starter place for people who are getting into Viet coffee or don't like how strong it typically is. Can't do work here because of the minimal seating.EGG COFFEE: 4.5/5+ MUST try! My favorite item here. The egg cream is perfectly sweet and easy to incorporate in+ Nice to have a drink that you don't have to wait to enjoy, but it does go by fast! MUOI: 3.75/5+ Salted cream doesn't add much of a sweet and salty taste to the coffee, kinda lacks in both

DEFINITELY ON MY TOP LIST OF BEST COFFEE SPOTS IN THE SOUTH BAY AREA!!!! It was literally love at first try! If you love Vietnamese coffee, this place is definitely for you! We came across this place bc of a friend's recommendation and he was spot on!This place delivers quality Viet coffee for a very reasonable price. We had to drive back on our last day in the Bay to make sure we get another dose of this greatness. Our favs were Eggspresso Hanoi and Muoi and we get both at 75% sweetness. They made it so perfect both times we went! It was almost addicting lol.This place is mostly a pick up and go place as there were only a handful seating in their cafe. It was pretty busy both times we went but service remained efficient and staff were very nice and friendly. They also have an online ordering in place for people who are in a hurry and don't have much time to wait for their coffee.One thing to note tho is that the plaza parking lot can get pretty hectic and full so just keep that in mind when you're in a hurry!

Best Vietnamese coffee in the Bay Area. I don't know if they put anything special in their signature Saigon coffee. It's so good in 50% sweetness. Coconut freeze and Golden lotus tea were just ok. Get the coffee when you're here.

Cute decor! Drinks were all beautiful and tasty. I kinda copied people adding the egg cream so now I'm curious how my staple Ube Coffee wouldn't tasted as is. I'd say try this spot out!

Came here on a Tuesday afternoon, and there were quite a few people inside. The cafe is located in a small plaza so there's quite a lot of parking, but it was quite full even after lunch hours. I ordered the egg coffee. The drinks came with a sippy cup lid, which is nice because we didn't need straws. Although I wish I mixed up the drink because I ended up having a thick layer of the egg cream at the end, which was hard to get to. The restaurant has lunar new year decorations and also themed cups for the holiday, which was a nice touch. Would come back here if I was in the area!

Tasty drinks on par with many other coffee and tea places in the area. Plenty of parking in the lot. Seating inside is pretty limited, so definitely more of a takeout place. Service was pretty quick!This time around I got the signature saigon 50% sweet. Despite adjusting the sweetness, this is still a pretty rich and decadent drink. The flavor of the coffee was strong and robust. I was here last in the summer when they had their salted plum and kumquat seasonal drink (which I miss dearly) and hope they bring it back since it was refreshing and unique. Overall, would definitely come again to try more of their drinks!

I will always ruin my sleep schedule for some Viet coffee at any time of the day.When on Story Rd I just had to convince the group we needed an after dinner drink.... and not the alcoholic kind. Luckily we ate our way into a food coma down the street at Banh Cahn 3 Mien and needed caffeine. We ordered the egg coffee and muoi.Both were so deliciously caffeinated. I was up all night from this coffee and had no regrets.SJ is so lucky to have this spot! Maybe it's for the best that SF doesn't have this spot, otherwise I'd lose all my sleep.
