Reviews
- spindly_sparrowGot a Vietnamese drip coffee and honestly the whole slow-drip thing was kinda mesmerizing to watch — really got me in the mood to just chill. The beans are dark roasted and you can totally taste the walnut, peanut, and hazelnut notes. It's bitter but with this sweet finish that lingers in the best way. They paired it with these little coconut cookies that were super crunchy and sweet, went perfectly with the coffee. The vibe inside is all Southeast Asia style with wood decor, and I snagged a seat by the floor-to-ceiling window — perfect spot to sit and read. Everything was clean, and the staff was really attentive, actually took the time to walk me through what made the coffee special. Overall a solid experience, and the Vietnamese touch makes it feel pretty unique compared to your usual cafe.
