Ding Tea Kirkland

Note: this place is actually two "businesses," and so is listed as "Ding Tea+ & 36 Streets Vietnamese Coffee" on Google. I specifically came here for the Vietnamese coffee.Vietnamese coffee is my favorite kind of coffee, but there aren't that many places in the area that do it more traditionally. 36 Streets Vietnamese Coffee is on the more traditional end of that fare, with seating and tables that mimic a true cafe in Vietnam. This means that the seating is not particularly comfortable, so do not plan to stake out with a laptop and get any work done.But, if you're here for a traditional Vietnamese coffee experience, this is your place. If you've never been to this particular location before, you should hands-down get the coffee flight. For $12, you get a sampler of 3 different kinds of Vietnamese coffee, and is well worth it. Each coffee is unique not only in taste, but texture as well due to the added meringue-like toppings added to several of them. The robustness and sweetness of each variety is unique as well, so the flight makes for a fantastic experience.The food here is also great, though limited. The Pandan Bubble Waffle is delightfully subtle with its pandan flavor and has decadent, thick whipped cream in the middle.I am biased, because like I said, Vietnamese coffee is my favorite, but this may be my favorite coffee in the state. When you combine the traditional atmosphere with the great variety of coffees, 36 Streets Coffee makes for a great Sunday morning coffee shop. Just be prepared to be absolutely wired for the rest of the day since the coffee is full of caffeine!

I came here for the first time last weekend, and I've been back twice already. I specifically come to this location for 36 Streets Coffee. Their Vietnamese coffee is really good and really strong, I would recommend drinking it before 3 pm! My dad is a coffee snob, and he was super impressed by his Vietnamese coffee. The owners and employees are super nice, and they actually care where their beans come from and what the quality is like. There's only a few tables inside, but if you can grab one, definitely order the coffee flight and sit and enjoy it. The egg cream, yogurt, and sea salt crema are all made in house!

We saw this place pop up on Instagram as both a Ding Tea and Vietnamese Coffee Shop & Cafe (36 Streets) and immediately made plans to come by. The staff said they source their ingredients from Vietnam and are family-owned We initially ordered one of their Bahn Mi combos with a condensed milk coffee, and a regular size milk tea, but my partner went back in and got us the Pandan Bubble Waffle with Coconut Cream because I couldn't stop thinking about it. We sat out front at the small tables and chairs they provided to enjoy the sunshine and the staff was kind enough to bring everything out when it was ready.We were really impressed by the coffee - it was so smooth and had the strong-ness of Vietnamese coffee, but was balanced out with the perfect amount of sweetness and creaminess from the condensed milk. The milk tea was also good, and on par with other Ding Tea drinks I've had (which I'm so excited knowing we have one close to us!). I usually don't have Bahn Mi cause I can't eat cilantro, but I had a couple bites of it to taste and it was delicious. The bread was perfect. Fresh, crispy, and pressed into a panini-like style. The Pandan Waffle was also sooo good - the coconut cream with flakes of toasted coconut really tied it all together and made it enjoyable to eat. We're really looking forward to coming back again! They have some great combo deals with their food and drinks, and the family that runs it is super kind.

We got the Chocolate Oolong Milk Tea with a Pandan Bubble Waffle. Service was quick too.

Beyond thrilled to have a Ding Tea on the Eastside! After just a single visit they've already ascended to my Top 3 local boba places.We visited during their grand opening to take advantage of the BOGO deal on the classic milk tea. I tried the classic milk tea with 50% sweetness and egg pudding topping. The drink was perfectly sweet with a pronounced tea flavor, and the egg pudding added a delightfully rich texture. It tasted very fresh. Despite it being busy, the line moved efficiently and our barista was so friendly. The only downside of this location is how small the interior is. It's already cramped quarters and they also share a space with a Vietnamese coffee shop. Definitely a place to grab and go, rather than gather with friends.

My husband found this place, and we decided to give it a try. The shop is a little small and there is a little seating but not too much. This was our first time, so we weren't sure how to order, and the girls were helpful but didn't explain things too well. We just had to guess at ordering, but I think we muddled our way through. We met the owner Lilly and she was so nice. I ordered the Mango souffle slush, my husband got the grape souffle slush, and my son got the Brulee Caramel milk tea. It was really good. They had fresh fruit in the fruit teas which is a really nice tough. I love when they add fresh fruit. It makes it taste so good and refreshing. Definitely recommend you try it out. We will definitely be back.

Ding Tea has recently opened in Kirkland. I visited on their grand opening day, where they were quite busy.There is some seating inside and also a couple low tables and chairs outside.Ordered their signature milk tea, since they were having a grand opening promotion of buy one get one free on this drink. I noticed that the signature milk tea didn't seem to be on the menu though, so maybe it's not a standard menu item. The tea tasted good, but was on the sweeter side, despite the 50% sugar level.In addition to the Ding Tea drinks, there is also a separate menu "36 Streets" of Vietnamese coffees and food.Staff were friendly and were understandably busy getting through all of the orders during the grand opening.

This review is for the Vietnamese coffee that shared space with Ding Tea . I love this place ! The owners are very nice couple . Their Vietnamese coffee is strong authentic and the sandwiches are good with lot of stuffs inside . Cute little coffee shop !

Absolutely hooked on their condensed milk coffee! Smooth, rich, and perfectly balanced sweetness. It's my go-to pick-me-up that never disappoints. Highly recommend giving it a try!

Had the banh mi sandwich and the egg coffee.Yes I love the taste and the lady was really nice to me! I plan on coming back to try their other drinks.
