Thuy Cafe

Thuy Cafe has been my favorite restaurant for lunch pickup for many years. The food (Vietnamese) is always flavorful and prices are extremely reasonable - a ban mi & regular boba usually cost me $11-12.I really like the ban mi sandwiches and have at least three that are my favorite, served on a crusty French baguette. I also like to treat myself to a boba drink. Taro & coconut are my favorites - they have at least 50 flavors.The staff are always really friendly and your order is ready quickly for me to pick up. Will be back next time I need lunch!

Our favorite Vietnamese Coffee shop was closed today for renovations. So we tried Thuy Cafe & overall it was a good experience. The cafe is super authentic and cozy inside. The workers were very friendly & helpful. We ordered coffees & they were reasonably priced. They could have used a bit more sweetened condensed milk, which we've learned is the signature of Vietnamese coffee. But the friendliness of the workers made up for the lack of full flavor. The food looked good so we shall return & give that a try.

This place has the best Sugarcane juice hands down. I spent 2 days driving around Tampa and Orlando to find the best sugarcane juice. I believe they add kumquats in it but to me, gives it a nice citrus twist to the delicious sugarcane. I didn't really try anything else but what I observed while waiting looked fantastic. Wish I could give it 10 stars. I love it.

I dropped by Thuy Cafe after work around 530pm. It was peaceful and quiet inside. Two customers entered in the time I was there, and the two ladies working were amiable. I tried ordering a Raspberry Tea and a Pineapple Green Tea, but they were out of stock-- disappointing, but not the end of the world. I haven't been here more than once, so I can't say if this is a regular occurrence or not. I ended up with a Hazelnut Milk Tea with Tapioca Boba and a Lychee Green Tea with Lychee Jelly. I have a proclivity for enjoying sweet flavors, but wow the Hazelnut was VERY sweet, even for me. It actually reminded me of a melted ice cream or something. Just be wary of this flavor if that is not your taste. The Tapioca, however, was fresh with the perfect consistency and taste in my opinion. The Lychee Tea was very refreshing and tasty. It was more of a normal sweetness. The jelly add-ins were good too. I preferred this drink to the other. I saw some really delicious looking options on the menu in terms of noodles/rolls, so I will have to be back to try food options and different drinks.

I oder bún nước lèo chay, the tofu is frozen and taste a little sour like about to expire, terrible, they're so close to a dong market wonder why don't they use fresh tofu. and the soup tasteless no favor at all. I wouldnt recommend it

We live in Tallahassee but visit St Pete often. And every time we do we stop at the Thuy Cafe to pick up lunch to eat on our ride back home. We are in a rut, but it's a good rut: we always get the Vietnamese Specialty Banh Mi. It's a traditional Banh mi made with pork sausage (cha lua), pâté, a combo of pickled daikon and carrot, cilantro, cucumber and jalapeño. And it's served on an absolutely perfect French baguette. It makes for a wonderful sandwich to eat while driving. If you want to eat it later, ask them to put the veggies in the side; they'll put them in a plastic bag so the bread won't get soggy and you can put them on the sandwich when you are ready to eat. I also always get a Vietnamese iced coffee (caphe sua da). I know they have an extensive list of boba drinks, but the humble Vietnamese coffee (which does not include tapioca pearls), is the perfect accompaniment to the Banh Mi. This time we also tried an appetizer that looked amazing: soft dough rounds are topped with combo of pork and dried shrimp, sprinkled with egg yolk powder, with a small container of nuoc cham, the quintessential Vietnamese condiment that's sweet and salty. It was a little tough trying to eat them in the car (grabbed a bite at the frequent red lights on 34th street), but so well worth it. Can't wait to go back again!

Delicious boba from here! I always drive past here but finally stopped in. Got a rose slush boba and it was so so so delicious. One of the better boba places in the area. Was made quickly and wasn't too pricy. Highly recommend. Will have to come back for food too!

Love this spot! I just wish they were open passed 7pm. I really like that they have vegan protein besides tofu for their veggie pho. My bf and I are regulars here and they do a nice job packaging for takeout.

I have been coming here since around 2001 ish and this place used to be SUPER good. Like I would rave about it to everyone. They legit at the time only had bahn mi's and a select few boba options and throughout the years they expanded their boba list and their bahn mi's were the best in town! It was perfectly made, perfect amount of ingredients, jalapeños were really spicy and delicious.But I am not quite sure when it changed - it's been quite a few years - idk if they got new owners or management or something but the sandwiches are still good but they're different sized than what they used to be and the jalapeños are rarely ever spicy and the boba quality has gone down. They used to be my favorite and original boba spot back when you could only get boba here or at seasons. Also they have added a few other things to their menus besides bahn mi and boba such as fried rice and vermicelli but I've not tried anything else besides the bahn mi's. I still go back when I have the urge for bahn mi but I really do miss the old one.

5 stars!! I would give this place 10 stars if I could. I'm Vietnamese and this food doesn't get better. Amazing vegetarian option. The tofu banh mi is the BEST I've ever had. Bread is crispy and light. Soups and noodle bowls are also delicious. Thuy and her team there are always welcoming. One of my favorite places to eat of all time. I always stop when I'm in ST Pete
