Had the Hot Salty Caramel Latte. Perfect for this cold weather. For me, definitely taste the salty caramel and the caffeine was perfect for me.
Chicken Pesto Panini was ok. I think it could use more pesto because you could not really taste the pesto. The chicken was tender and moist. The salad that came w/ it was also good too. The dressing had a nice tangy taste.

I got the flight with while milk, hot, and it was a great way to try several flavor profiles. The salted caramel was what you’d expect, the brown sugar was super sweet, the pandan was earthy in a good way, and the ube was sweet with a hint of coconut. I also got their ham and cheese panini, which came with a salad. It was good but the biscoff croffle was amazingly delicious! I got the purple lava iced to go, and now I can’t imagine drinking Vietnamese coffee without that thick creamy ube foam on top! Needless to say I’ll be making many more trips back!

I love exploring cafes around the twin cities, so I was excited to check out this new spot!

There were plenty of parking lots nearby, or you could park on the street like I did. I only paid 75¢ for an hour. I came on a Monday morning and it was pretty busy. But I was lucky to grab a spot in this cozy corner and had a great time reading my book.

The strawberry matcha cloud was delicious! I definitely want to come again to try their specialty coffee and croffles

Update: Visited again to try their croffles and fall themed drinks. I got the strawberry croffles and pumpkin spice latte. They were okay.

Kindest barista, and the actual best lattes I’ve ever had. Don’t miss the purple lava, or anything with their ube foam. The vibes are immaculate, and the workers are so helpful and willing to explain the drinks and food if you need it. 10/10.

This was my first time visiting this place. It was a very pleasant experience. The background music isn’t too loud, and the location has an overall calm and relaxing atmosphere. The staff was very kind. I got the coffee flight (hot) and enjoyed the variety of flavors.
Whether its to visit with friends, get some work done, curl up and read a book, or just swing in for a quick coffee, I highly recommend trying it out sometime!

Drink order: 3 strawberry matchas, 1 regular matcha and 1 Pandanmoniun

The only drink that was finished was the Pandanmoniun, and the comment made was that the espresso was really strong.

All the rest were pretty much tossed out after each person drank 1/4-1/3 of it which is bad for an $8 drink. The strawberry matcha is just a mess. You have a 1/3 of strawberry puree which is grainy (sugar probably wasn’t dissolved all the way) and fizzy (my theory is that it’s either going bad or fermenting because the drink doesn’t state that there is seltzer in it). Then you have about 1/4 of matcha, followed by a 1/3 of cloud foam (sweet cream/cheese foam at bubble tea shops) and the remaining space is just one tile of ice (not ice cubes, literally a tile). Presentation is nice.

However, when you try to mix the strawberry and the matcha, it splits, looks grainy and doesn’t stay blended. You need a straw to get to the drink because the cloud foam is so thick and doesn’t let the drink permeate when drinking from the top. The taste and texture are unfortunately bad, it’s clumpy and watery. The strawberries taste like they’re close to expiring and overly sweet by the grainy sugar (can’t adjust the amount of sweetness).

Personally, the strawberry matcha gave me the impression that it was trying to be a bubble tea with how much was going on but without the balanced ratio. I’ve had the Taro Bubble Tea Latte from MuMu (the one with the thick taro paste) and have never had an issue with it not mixing or splitting. I’ve had sweet cream in other teas and have never had an issue actually drinking the tea with the foam on top (not blended into the drink).

I did confirm that they use ceremonial grade matcha so that’s good. I didn’t get the hibiscus refresher drink but they did confirm it’s made in house (maybe I should have gotten this) unfortunately I probably won’t go back for any other drink.

Fast service, chill alternative music, plenty of open seats on a Saturday morning, and a pretty good vanilla latte only complaint is the fake plants for decor. If this plants gets some real plants that would boost the atmosphere even more!

Such a cool coffee shop. They had unique menu offerings, we got the salty cheesy latte and the matcha strawberry cloud – both were fantastic. My husband doesn’t always like adventurous drinks, but he loved the salty cheesy latte. We also had the bahn mini and it was great. Such a great atmosphere to chat with a friend or do some work/studying. We will be back!

If you’re a coffee lover, this spot is a must-try! I ordered both the Vietnamese coffee and the ubelicious, and they were absolutely delicious. The Vietnamese coffee had that perfect balance of bold, rich espresso with just the right amount of sweetness—smooth, strong, and exactly what you’d hope for in a classic cà phê sữa đá. The ubelicious was such a unique treat! Creamy, slightly nutty, and perfectly paired with the coffee flavor. It wasn’t overly sweet, which I really appreciated, and the ube added such a fun, vibrant twist.
