| - Coffee and bubble tea review:
I've only had the Vietnamese drip coffee and bubble tea here, but I'm eager to try the banh mi!
Vietnamese coffee - delicious, really strong, so the condensed milk it comes with helps break down the boldness. I also asked for a cup of ice (thanks for the tip, Yelp!), and had my coffee iced instead of hot. It's on the steeper side in terms of $, but would recommend if you're staying in there to work/eat, since it takes time to steep.
Bubble tea - surprisingly good! I had almond milk tea with boba, which lived up to my expectations. They definitely use powder for some things, but I liked how thick and flavorful the tea was, not watered down like a lot of other places. The variety of flavors and toppings is great. I came mid-afternoon on a Sunday and they were running out of a few things, but the baristas made sure to let me know once they heard we were ordering bubble tea. Side note: their boba isn't sweet/soaked in honey, which I prefer, but still was good boba consistency!
Atmosphere - overall, great place to study/work/eat. Love the antique sewing machine tables, which were large enough for a friend and I to sit at and work. Sometimes can be crowded, but turnaround is rather quick, since some people just stay to eat.
