Voi Cà Phê

So excellent to have this quality Vietnamese coffee shop in South Seattle. This area doesn't lack for great Vietnamese choices with White Center nearby, but this place is special for their focus on coffee. I ordered some sandwiches, cold brew and a single Iced Cinnamon Phin Latte with a combo of oatmilk and condensed (because why not have the best of both worlds? You can get straight up dairy free if you prefer. My version was delicious with a cinnamon stick (and I think a piece of star anise?) bobbing around. The spouse picked up our order, which was ready as quickly as promised. He was pretty psyched with his chicken sausage patty, which he described as preferable to some of the other chicken delivery modes we have seen on banh mi. I took a little bite for posterity, definitely yummy! My tofu had a great coconut curry marinade that flavored the bread and veg. This sandwich is vegan if that's your jam. I was most excited about the take-home sized cold brew, which you can get black or in varying degrees of sweetness, which was great. Appreciate the helpful label warning to not chug, since there are several 5oz servings of caffeinated beverage in the bottle. Definitely a spot for regular rotation!

Authentic, simple, and modern small café. Serves cold Vietnamese coffee, specialty style and normal hot coffee as well, and also has banh mi sandwiches. Only outdoor seating, easy parking, highly recommended.

Tried the pho spice latte. You can taste the star anise in the coffee. It's a bit on the weird side for me but not horrible. If you don't like pho, it's prob not a good idea to try this, especially first thing in the morning when you're expecting that coffee to wake you up and smell that fresh brew.

I got hooked the minute I heard "Pho Spice Latte"Service: The person who took our order was friendly and helpful - answering all our menu questions cheerfully.Ambiance: You're served your coffee and food out from the window. However, the kitchen space inside looked clean and spacious.Drink (5/5): I was recommended the Pho Spice Latte by my cousin who lives in the area and it definitely didn't disappoint. It was super interesting how the Pho flavors blended so well with the coffee. It felt like with every sip, I got a more intense Pho taste which was pleasant. If you're looking for something unique to try, go grab the Pho Spice Latte at Voi Ca Phe! It'll make your brain and taste buds dazed.

Cutest little Viet cafe I've ever been to. Saying this place is unique is an understatement. I enjoyed chatting with the owner and hearing the special items that she recommends. It's a little takeout restaurant with some outdoor seating. My friend and I were blown away by their Pho Spice Latte!! the owner described it as their version of "pumpkin spice latte" we were hesitant at first, but we were glad we decided to get it. The aroma is very similar to pho but it tastes very smooth and has a nice light basil taste which I'm guessing is what makes it similar to pho. (Everyone have to try it)

This is my favorite banh mi spot in Seattle! It's takeout only and you order from a window facing the street. They're super quick and you can order in advance. I love that they have mini versions of all their sandwiches - perfect if you have a smaller appetite. I tried the classic banh mi. All the ingredients were high quality and the bread wasn't overly fluffy which is typically my gripe with other bahn mi I've tried. Can't wait to come back!

My hubby and I saw this place as we were driving by. I intentionally did not grab a coffee at the first or second place we stopped so that I could try theirs and I am SO happy I did. I'm sure everything on their menu is fantastic but if you come just for the coffee, it's worthwhile. We just decided that we are going back tomorrow for another coffee and some sandwiches, today had their cinnamon and coconut iced lattes. They were delicious and you will not be disappointed!

That is one good pork banh mi. It's not perfect, but it's very tasty. The bread is great, a fresh true baguette with a nice crunchy crust...no notes. The pork sausage is quite good, but fails to reach its potential due to lack of sufficient charring. You can't blame the sausage, it's just poor parenting. Or chefing. Whatever. The good news is that it's an easily solvable problem! I'm going to start requesting it crispy, but I'm not waiting until then to finish this review, so let's just assume assume it was a marvelous choice and you should order it that way too. The sauce is really good, quite rich and almost tastes like it contains pâté (as any honest-to-Hanoi banh mi should), although I don't think it actually does. At least the menu doesn't mention it anywhere. I like it, but the sandwich could use just a bit less of it. And more jalapeños. Ok: well-done sausage, light on the sauce, extra jalapeño. That's the order. Lock it in. The Vietnamese coffee (with condensed milk) is also excellent. Legitimately tastes like some of the better vendors in northern Vietnam. If you're not familiar, it's an intense sip - in both the sweet and strong categories. A 12oz will probably be plenty for the uninitiated. If you know you love yourself a good Vietnamese coffee, you'll probably want the big boi because it is real damn good. Also makes it a great spot for those who tend to get sleepy after lunch. Or so says a friend of mine. tl;dr eat it

One of my new favorite coffee spots in SoDo. It's a walk up window style cafe serving delicious Vietnamese coffee and sandwiches. I loved the simplicity of the cafe design and concept. The staff were friendly and welcoming. There's a good amount of free 1 hour street parking spaces available in front of the cafe. My favorite items we ordered were the Bạc Xỉu - Iced Coco Phin Latte and the Nem Nướng Hà Nội - Pork Sausage Patty Banh Mi. Looking forward to trying their Tofu Pudding Latte and pastries next time!

Stumbled across this cute little window after landing in Seattle. The women were so helpful to walk us through the menu and recommended their favorites and customers favorites. We got 2 minis and can say it was the best banh mis we have ever had. The mini size is perfect!!! The coffee is so tasty and we even tried the honey ginger limeade which was INCREDIBLE. This will now be a MUST stop every time we are in town.
