Egg coffee
Hannah T.

09.28.2026. egg coffee (normal sweetness) 6.95. melon melon matcha. 7.75. vietnamese pandan waffle. 6.50. I didn't expect to like the melon matcha but it was actually so well done. It tastes like a melona bar but make it matcha. On the sweeter side for sure, but not tooooo sweet. You still get the subtle matcha flavor, floraly that pairs well with the fruity melon. The pandan waffle was also pretty good. The waffle was fluffy and full of pandan flavor. i personally would've liked it like a tad crispier. egg coffee was solid. The signature sweet and strong viet coffee. the whipped egg topping lent a nice fluffiness to the dense coffee and mellowed out the strength of the caffeine. Definitely would come back again. There are little tables to work at, and a couple of outlets for charging. A little crowded tho so a little hard to find seats.

Looks so flakey like some in SF

I must admit the World Cup has me binge drinking recently. Especially the motherland Spain is in the finals. I thought I was only going to binge drink in SF . I guess going to the East Bay and going to Berkeley I still have the urge to binge drink. There are so many places to get a drink in Berkeley like at Jupiters. There is one place where binge drinking is encouraged in Berkeley and it's called Binge Coffee House. On a Summer tour of Berkeley I landed at the Binge Coffee House. I just went to Binge Coffee house location on Valencia ( not in Spain) in SF. I guess I wanted to binge drink again. Don Juan de la Matcha had to get some matcha. This time I got the purple yam Ube matcha which was not too sweet and tasty. It was smooth and very consistent to the matcha drinks at the San Francisco location. This time I had to try the banh mi. I was looking for the head cheese and was thinking about the lemongrass but got the combination with the extra pate. It was delicious but the bread was a bit flakey like some I saw on my social media feed. Overall a good spot to binge drink. Go on a Berkeley stroll in another words an "exploration "of the Binge Coffee House East Bay "location" good for matcha for Don Juan de la matcha for any "occasion"and get an Banh Mi I recommend extra pate on their "Combination" This is a place where you can go on a drinking "binge"across the "Bay Bridge" and you don't have to be "cringe "or go off the "hinge"

Ube Matcha Latte (Less Sweet - 75% - $7.50)

Binge Coffee House is a Vietnamese coffee shop and the coffee house originally started as Boba Binge in Oakland. The owner later decided to expand and open a coffee shop that uses the traditional Vietnamese slow-drip method (phin drip). Currently there are two Binge Coffee House locations near UC Berkeley (within 0.5 miles of each other) and a new location in San Francisco. This location on Bancroft Way is apparently the flagship location for the coffee house. [Parking]: There is a public parking lot right next to the shop ($2 per hour) and street metered parking a block away on Shattuck Ave (free metered parking on Sundays). [Ordering]: No line when our party arrived at 9 AM on Sunday. Our party placed an order using one of the two kiosks. Our waffle order was ready in 10 minutes, but our party didn't hear my name called so I had to follow up with one of the cashiers 5 additional minutes later. [Atmosphere]: The coffee house has a bar table and six indoor tables. There are no outdoor tables. [Menu]: While this is technically a Vietnamese coffee house, the recommended drinks per the online ordering system are Strawberry Matcha Latte, Banana Matcha Latte, Matcha Latte, Ube Matcha Latte, and Egg Coffee. The shop also sells snacks such as popcorn chicken and pandan waffles as well as light lunch items like Vietnamese sandwiches. *** Ube Matcha Latte (Less Sweet - 75% - $7.50): Cute cup design and the matcha tasted fairly concentrated. The ube cream was solid. Vietnamese Pandan Waffle ($6.50): I thought it was alright - nothing to write home about. *** The matcha drink was not as good as some of the best matcha drinks in Koreatown in Los Angeles, but the drink tasted good enough for local UC Berkeley students who are looking for a decent matcha drink without having to drive out of Berkeley.

Ube Matcha Latte
Joe W.

Tried the ube matcha with 50% sweetness and Oatmilk. The reviews definitely support what my experience was, which was a surprisingly great summer treat that is equally colorful as it was balanced. This afternoon pick me up was not too sweet and kept cool. We ordered through DoorDash but service was super quick and delivery to Jack London was really fast. Can't speak to the ambiance but I am willing to check it out in person because it was that good. FYI: the matcha is strong, might have you doing some exercise afterwards.

Strawberry Shortcake Hojicha, Melon Matcha, White Peach Matcha, Pandan Coffee
Stephanie L.

They have so many great drinks on the menu, and all of their crème tops looked amazing. Out of the four drinks | tried, the Melon Matcha was my favorite (reminds me so much of Academic). The Pandan Coffee was sweet, while the Strawberry Shortcake Hojicha had a bold hojicha flavor, with the cutest little graham cracker topping. The café is just as pretty as the drinks, with pops of green everywhere that make the space feel fresh and vibrant. I just wish it wasn't so far away : (

Melon Melon Matcha and Cookie Butter Matcha
Geanna T.

Binge Coffee House offers Vietnamese food, cafe drinks, and matcha drinks. Their drinks also come with a unique flavors! I ordered their cookie butter matcha and the melon melon matcha. who knew melon and matcha would be such a great combo? Apparently, Binge did. It was a pleasant surprise, and I loved it! Their cookie butter matcha was also delicious! One thing's for sure, Binge knows great flavor combos, and I will be back to try more.

We stopped here for coffee while driving to Napa. They have a lot of variety on the menu in terms of drinks. The inside of the coffee shop is pretty small, but there were a few people inside studying when I came in early on a Saturday morning. Though you order on a screen, one of the staff greeted me right away when I came in and was very polite. I ordered on the screen and didn't wait very long to get my drinks. I'd gotten a double matcha here and it was perfect, on par with some of the top matcha places in LA. Definitely recommend trying if you're a matcha lover.

Egg coffee , Binge House Coffee, Guava Matcha Latte

Popular Vietnamese and matcha spot in Berkeley! I can see why it's so popular, as they have super strong coffee as well as good quality matcha. The price is also decent compared to other cafes around and for the size. They have a bunch of fun flavored matcha's, my favorite matcha is their earl gray. They do charge extra for oat milk. They do online ordering through snackpass, which makes it super quick to pick up. They definitely do get busy so grabbing a table might be tricky! The workers are always friendly and I keep coming back!

Kyoto Fog
Jackeline S.

Hands down one of the best matcha spots in Berkeley. The Kyoto Fog is my go to, I love with the earl grey flavor and the matcha topping. I also love their BBQ Pork Banh Mi, you've gotta try it!! Parking is tricky around here tho so be aware of that.

Binge Coffee is without a doubt my favorite place to get matcha in Berkeley. I've been coming here since they opened, and it's incredible how consistently good their drinks are. I usually order through Snackpass on my phone and pick it up, but there are kiosks in the store where you can order as well. My favorite limited seasonal drinks: Cal Day Matcha (chocolate foam), Cocoa Coffee, Tiramisu Matcha. My favorite regular menu drinks: Ube Matcha, Banana Matcha, Pistachio Matcha, Kyoto Fog, Egg Coffee. Their matcha is always beautifully green and balanced, and the foam on top is delicious no matter what flavor you get. I highly recommend their popcorn chicken and pandan waffle as well. Whether you need a matcha fix, a caffeine boost, or are craving something sweet or savory, they have something for you. Side note: I've been waiting for their "Corn Cloud" drink to return. I've never had corn milk in the US, and I always miss out when they have it on the menu lol.

3.5 stars - Another spot I bookmarked because I saw an IG reel that they enjoyed the mango sticky rice matcha, so I decided to stop by just for that. Parking was very tricky as it's only metered but glad I was able to snag a spot just a block away. The business itself wasn't that big and there were a few customers inside when I arrived on a Friday afternoon. I went straight to the kiosk and ordered the drink. It took about 5 minutes before I received a text that it was ready. The drink didn't blow my mind as I thought it would. I did taste the rice but not much of the mango. The matcha was average even after mixing everything together. I don't drink coffee so not sure if their coffee drinks would've tasted better or different.

Got three different marchas today white peach Matcha, banana Matcha, strawberry Matcha And my fav was banana Matcha. The perfect blend of sweetness and Matcha. Easy to order and they have your drinks ready fast. It is full inside to find seating but I 10/10 recommend and I will be coming back

Banana Coffee
Laurie H.

In my never-ending quest for black sesame coffee, I was nearby and googled for one. Binge came up as having black sesame coffee and many others that I would try. Good thing, because when I got there, they were sold out of black sesame, but they had the banana coffee. I am so glad I got it. It was delicious - rich and flavorful, and it held up through the entire cup. Also, they use pebble ice, which makes a huge difference. With pebble ice, as your drink melts down, the flavors still are there because you can crunch down on the pebble ice with your teeth. Think about regular ice and how you're trying to get those last flavors out of a cup, but can't because the ice is in the way. Yes, I've thought about this way too much. I will 100% be back and try many other flavors, including the black sesame.

After ordering at kiosks, it took about 20 minutes for our drinks. Good things come to those who wait! We ordered: Bubble Milk Tea, light sweetness, less ice Dong Ding Milk Tea, perfect sweetness, less ice Both teas had really good tea flavor. Bubble Milk Tea being more of a traditional black tea and Dong Ding being closer to a green tea. The Bubble Milk Tea had more cream, not sure if this was on purpose. For sweetness, light sweetness was good for me with boba. Perfect sweetness would be good without boba. Overall, the tea was fantastic. 90th+ percentile, but also on the pricier side. Each tea comes with a disposable cup carrier. The space is also really nice place to hang out - modern, spacious, and with a couple of interesting tea-related things to look at including a running video of tea harvesting and processing. As we were looking around, we noticed they have free tea tastings, but reservations look like they book out at least a few days in advance. Really impressed with this shop and will make a point to visit next time we're in the area.

I think what makes this place stand out is the variety and price. You actually get a decent sized drink for the price, not those short cups that a lot of newer boba shops use nowadays lol. They're also pretty generous with their toppings, which I love. Most of the drinks I've tried are pretty standard, nothing crazy special, but they definitely hit the spot when you're craving something sweet. I also love that you can order ahead on Snackpass and skip the wait. Plus you get rewards if you go often, which clearly works out for me considering how many times I've been here haha. My favorites are the lychee milk tea, mango milk tea, and the classic milk tea with boba, QQ noodles, and grass jelly. Love having all those different textures in one drink!

It's also one of the few spots I get almond milk tea. The drinks themselves are pretty good, especially in their signature glass bottles. Sometimes I do feel the drinks are a bit inconsistent with the sweetness and how strong the tea flavor is. Online ordering is easy, and parking can be another story at times.

No sweetener such as condensed milk like I expected. As expected, there was absolutely no sweetness in the drink, just milky avocado slush. My husband got a house milk tea with boba, and it was extremely flavorless. Tasted really sweet, but you couldn't really taste the tea at all. Honey boba wasn't bad, not the worst we've tried. Overall, considering there are tons of other boba shops in Berkeley, we definitely will not be back.

Their strawberry matcha is also delicious, with a fresher, juicier strawberry flavor than a lot of other spots. I would honestly give this location 5 stars based on the drinks and regular barista interactions alone, but my last experience was really off-putting. I noticed that people often study there with laptops, so I came in with mine and brought a small lunch from Oori down the street to make a morning out of it. I've done this before without issue, but this time, a woman with crazy eyes who seemed to have a higher role came out and very abruptly scolded me, saying, "You CAN'T eat outside food here," while aggressively pointing toward the door as if I needed to leave immediately. I completely understand having a no-outside-food policy, and I would have had no problem following it if it had been communicated respectfully. But the way she approached me felt unnecessarily harsh and honestly pretty upsetting. I apologized right away, packed everything up in a panic, and left. After processing it, I realized how inappropriate the interaction felt for something that could have been addressed with a simple, polite reminder. Overall, Asha has great matcha, a cute space, and friendly baristas, but that experience really left a bad taste in my mouth. Just a heads up: the drinks are good, but you may want to be careful about bringing outside food in, because the policy might be enforced in a pretty unpleasant way.
