Atmosphere for studying – depends on the day! I’ve been on days where it’s not very crowded at all, lots of open seats and outlets, and quiet enough go to where I can get a lot of work done comfortably. Other days it is packed! I think they recently went viral on Instagram for their matcha flights (I haven’t tried them yet, but they look like almost 4 full sized matcha lattes, so I will definitely bring some friends to try it next time). That means that weekends might be very busy with all the tables full. There was one time we went and were able to snag a table but the music was atrociously loud and kept repeating the same song for an hour, so I would say that atmosphere depends on the day and who’s on aux.
Drinks are great! I personally don’t drink coffee, but my “black coffee only” friend says their coconut coffee is strong, dark, and creamy (as all Vietnamese coffee should be!). What I tried of it was very delicious (not quite comparable to the blended coconut coffee in Vietnam, but close enough for the DMV!). She also thought their iced Americano was very standard. We also tried the hot peppermint chocolate latte, but note that adjusting the sugar makes it much less flavorful.
That said, as a non-coffee person, it’s so hard to come by a cafe where their non-coffee drinks are just as good and plentiful as their coffee! We love their ube sea salt foam latte (as pictured). Their hojicha latte is nice and roasted, and I love that you can get plenty of drinks hot or iced for the weather. Their Thai tea sea salt foam was a little too sweet, as was their pandan sea salt foam. I think I’d stick with the ube!
I love that they have seasonal drinks that spans both coffee and non-coffee options! Prices I would say tend to run a little higher for a cafe (expect to pay between $7-9), but considering their default size seems to be a 16oz, it’s not too bad.
Decent parking lot that tends to get crowded on weekends.
Despite a lot of back and forth about the pros and cons of this shop, their ube sea salt foam on its own is definitely worth making the drive (for me), and I would love to make it through their entire menu eventually. Will definitely be coming back!
If you’re a matcha lover, 100% recommend this spot for you!
They have a few milk alternatives which is great for my friend who lactose intolerant. If you want to get a flight it’s dine-in only so be prepared for that.
Overall fun experience. Glad I came here.
My friend and I came by at around 10:30 on a Saturday and it got busy really quick. The service is pretty fast however and the coffee was also nice and strong. A good wake up cup. I tried 2 of their drinks: Ube Latte and Ube Matcha latte and both had great Ube flavoring and was perfect level of sweetness.
I definitely want to come back for the matcha flights.
In the midst of coffee shops all doing the same thing with minor pastry offering variations, DRiP is refreshing, with lots of novel options to try.
Going to try the matcha latte flight next.
