What People Are Saying
from Google & Yelp"This coffee and ube place is a Union City Filipino special — none that can ever be replaced. I remember this being Hippies Brew (the Black owned business) before they closed down, but I’m actually glad the owners who operate Macs by Icky actually decided to lease this property and put it to good use — doing event pop-ups, while continuing operations at their very home store. It’s also very conveniently located right by Toppings Too, so there is actually quite a bit of space to find parking should you find yourself craving a bit of ube and a bit of kick of coffee. I ordered an ube latte — in a large, and it did NOT disappoint, y’all. When I tell you there were more hints of ube syrup than there were in all of everything else, alongside the espresso shots, it tasted like it was destined for success. The hospitality at Macs by Icky was very open, welcoming, and they even gave you suggestions for drinks if you were walking in, being completely clueless for the very first time."
"A real love letter to local culture with a beautifully modern twist! Bustling on a Sunday afternoon but still provided fast and excellent service. Make sure to stop here if you need a pick-me-up :)"
"This place was shown to me by my mom an I said "THAT LOOKS GOOD!" . We went and it did not disappoint. Service: GOOD Food: SARAP (Delicious) I had a choco taco an it was good and the lemonade was HUGE I have put some pictures down below. (Ps: if you read this whole thing 👍)"
"Tried Macs by Icky for the first time. Went on a late morning on a Thursday. It wasn’t busy when we got there, but after ordering there was a small line. The service was great, was greeted with a smile, it was our first visit and the young lady that served us was helpful and patient. 👍 The gentleman that was working was also very nice, as I asked several questions 😊 We dined in, the wait time for the food was reasonable. I had the corned beef hash sandwich, a flavored lemonade and an ube crinkle. All was delicious 😋 Will go back to try different things as well as the same things 😊"
"Super yummy and great prices! We had the tocino pandesal and bacon, egg, and cheese ube pandesal - both yummy. The ube soft serve was the icy kind which we liked and tasted very much like ube! The calamansi lemonade was refreshing and ube latte was also good (could’ve tasted a little more like ube)!"
"Came across this place after eating next door at Toppings Too and tried the iced turon latte. Pricing is pretty standard for Bay Area coffee, but the..."
