from Google"I drive from Oakland all the way to Sunnyvale for work and Phin Cafe in Fremont is in between the long drive - and it has made the drive so much more bearable and exciting for me to visit when I do go into the office! I absolutely love the modern vibes and aesthetics inside the restaurant. It's so clean and a great coffee shop to get some work done. When it does it get packed during rush hours, seats might not be available but it only happened once on a Thursday at 10AM. Other times, I was able to find a seat to do a quick meeting. Now for the food and drinks: 1. Vietnamese Coffee - 5/5 ($6.90) - Does the job 2. House Special with Egg Cream - 4/5 ($6.90) - It's much more bitter than the one's I've had, granted I did get less sweet (so that might be on me) 3. Pate Chaud Pork - 3/5 ($3.75 for one or $7.50 for two) - The pastry itself looks great but it's overall super dry, even the filling inside. When you bake pate chaud, you want the flavor of the filling in parts of the pastry inside and it's supposed to be soft on the inside and flaky from the pastry. I think they did a safe route and cooked the filling inside first and then baked it with the pastry. For the price though, I would still get it to munch in the morning! 4. Banh Mi Pate and Pork Roll - 4/5 ($9 with extra pate) - The Banh Mi itself tastes fresh, with a crunch to it but it doesn't hurt the roof of your mouth. The filling is FULL but they did skimp out on the veggies (I got veggies on side). I had to ask for another veggies on side bag for the other half of my banh mi. Overall, this coffee shop has my favorite morning Vietnamese food, pastries, and coffee AND the place is super nice, clean, and modern-esque, making my long commute to work bearable and tasty :)"
"Trendy spot fairly quick service. Average place for matcha nowadays. They are definitely more of a matcha spot than coffee; coffee was nothing interesting. Salt foam really complemented the matcha well and I would get it again."
"Nice little spot to grab a coffee or matcha, and even get some work done. Ample seating, modern decor, and natural sunlight makes this a really relaxing atmosphere. Workers are also friendly. PS: If you’re lactose intolerant definitely do not get any of the cream drinks 😂 Can’t wait to come back!"
"Please don’t waste your money on food here!!! I got the Combo Special- Bahn Mi ; definitely SPECIAL … in its small SIZE but with a BIG $$ 9.70 or so. The Bahn mi was cut and placed into a small bag. The post on a previous reviewer “claims” it was GREAT; maybe secret employee/ owner pushing their product. But as you can see, tiny little product with hardly any fillers … a complete RIP OFF!!! Even Lee’s Sandwiches is much much BIGGER. Look for yourself …!!! It doesn’t even taste good. This place is garbage when it comes to Bahn Mi; should revoke their ‘license’ to sell such a product!! A completely dishonest establishment!!! Don’t waste your GOOD money on Garbage meat, Garbage bread."
"I have never felt compelled to write a negative review of a local coffee/boba place before, but unfortunately the service here was so bad that I had to. The baristas here are incredibly passive aggressive and don't understand customer service. Apparently the in-store coffee is available only if you have a table - that's fine and can be communicated professionally. But the seating here is so limited and crowded by people who order one drink and stay for four hours to study, so effectively that's not a menu item that this store really wants to sell. Instead of explaining that when a customer orders that drink, the barista just very rudely asked customers, "do you have a table?" and repeated that question several times with a passive aggressive tone when she can see with her own eyes that all the tables have been taken. The baristas also loudly argue behind the counter and don't appear to get along. The wait for the drinks was excessively long. It was a really unpleasant experience. And to top it all off, the drinks tasted very average but were priced ridiculously high. I will not be returning."
