I randomly stumbled upon this little gem when I was in the area with a friend. It's slightly hidden, but it's located in a little shopping strip next to a large office building. There's plenty of parking. My friend and I were looking for some coffee/boba in the area and saw this location was nearby, so we decided to check it out. First off, the inside of the coffee shop is very cute. Feels very authentic too. To be honest, it reminded me of being in a coffee shop/cafe when I was visiting Vietnam. They had a lot of Vietnamese decor, artwork, and even Vietnamese music playing. We were greeted by a very friendly barista, who made our coffees very quickly. I ordered the "Phin Love Ca Phe" and my friend ordered the "Ca Phe Sua." We both absolutely loved our drinks. The flavor was so good. The size of the cups were large, and we felt like the price was very fair for the portions. I loved everything about this place. I could see this being a good study/working spot too. I would definitely return if I'm in the area. read more

Ahhhhh man it hurt my soul to give such a lovely place a lower star rating than 5 stars. This place is super homely. The inside is setup with a warm interior that really takes you right out of the busy city nestled away from a really busy highway. Here you order at the counter and your drink is brought to your seating area. My first unfortunate experience is that the sofa-lite chair cushion has been pretty worn down, so sitting in it wasn't the most comfortable - not a dealbreaker but its noticeable. But my much bigger disappointment is how when the cà phê sữa đá (vietnamese iced coffee) comes out... it tasted just like regular drip coffee with condensed milk. A coffee you'd normally find yourself sipping through a conversation can just easily be chugged down seeing how thin it was. I'm not even going to give them a hard time of what kind of coffee was used either since every location has their preference. I'm only talking about it's overall richness. Regardless; beautiful place, large menu, I will probably return and try something else. Good vibes, just don't expect rocket fuel. read more

After walking around Johnson space museum I was craving a boba drink and found this cute cafe on Yelp. It's a couple min drive from the space museum. It was during traffic time so we were trying to kill time. When we walked in, super cozy and I like the vibe. We ordered ice Vietnamese coffee with boba, iced ginger tea and a Vietnamese sandwich. My bf said the coffee with boba was very good- boba was chewy. For the ginger tea you- if you love ginger this would be a good tea especially since there's honey and spice. The Vietnamese sandwich was delicious, love the toasted baguette. To anyone in the area looking for a cafe, I would recommend this place! read more

Ca Phe Phin - Vietnamese Near Me - Houston, Texas

Ambiance: (3/5) I liked that there were different types of seats, but the seats we sat on were not very comfortable, so this would be a hard place to work for a while. The table was also really small so it was hard to fit two laptops. Price: (4/5) Prices seem average for the area. Food: (4/5) I enjoyed the coffee. I will say it was a bit hard to figure out the menu, so I felt like I missed some of the options I could have tried. Service: (5/5) Service is great. read more

Such a cozy, authentic Vietnamese cafe. The owner is such a sweet, welcoming person-- I always feel at home here. I get the ca phe sua frappe, which is the ice-blended version of Vietnamese coffee.

One of my favorite coffee shops in the area! The ladies who work there are always so sweet and they have a wide variety of drink options.

I love this place so much that I don't want others to come here. But I love it so much that I want it to do well, so... the food is delicious, the coffee is on point, the service is personal and polite, the ambiance is literally worth treasuring. It feels like someone has welcomed you into their living room. Coffee, tea, banh mi and more. The menu is not overwhelmingly long like some other places, and every drink and plate is executed with care. Woman-run, small family business. Truly a community gem! read more

Ca Phe Phin - Ambiance, Vietnamese coffee culture and more - Vietnamese Near Me - Houston, Texas

On a recent visit to the Webster/Clear Lake area, I made it a point to visit Ca Phê Phin. I am a lover of Vietnamese cuisine and this place has two of my favorites which is bánh mì and cà phê sữa đá. I rolled up and there was a crowd of people out front chilling, drinking coffee, smoking and taking photos, which I thought was really cool. I'm always glad to pull up to a place and see people enjoying themselves. I walked in and, the vibe of this place blew me away. Whoever decorated this small shop used every inch of what they had to bring it to life. Everything in here except maybe the seating shouted Vietnamese culture. I just wanted to walk around and look at the books, paintings and other decorations. Ordering was straightforward. The attendant was patient but direct. I ordered the classic Vietnamese bánh mì, which is essentially their version of bánh mì đặc biệt. I also ordered the Pink Salt Vietnamese Coffee. The bánh mì was pretty good. It wasn't as packed as I would normally expect but it wasn't egregious. I had a question about putting the patê on the side but was told they couldn't do it. No worries, I love patê, so I was going to eat it either way but I did think it was odd that they couldn't make one without it already spread on the bánh mì. I ate the bánh mì, patê and all and I thought it was really good. I've had a large number of bánh mì of all types and places. This one was not bad at all. I don't know why I do this but usually when I go to a new Vietnamese coffee shop, I stick either ca phê sữa đá before getting anything else there. This time I ventured out and ordered a Pink Salt Vietnamese Coffee. Maybe because I had been on a ca phê muối trip lately. I thought this was going to be a ca phê muối and maybe I should have asked more questions. I tasted only the slightest hint of salt. To my knowledge, my sodium levels are okay but if they were high, this definitely helped balance it out. The drink was still good but I didn't taste the salt. If anything it tasted sweeter than expected as the bitter coffee taste I'm accustomed to did not come through either. All in all, the drink was good but not what I expected. The ice was a bit heavy as well. This place is very cool. You can sit here and socialize or study and get a drink or quick snack. The vibe is very casual and laid back. I think I'll return soon for a ca phê sữa đá and enjoy the vibe here. read more

Drinks: Not good. I'm sorry. Those were exceedingly watery Ca Phe Sua's. It had the faintest taste of the Coffee/Chicory that we all know is Vietnamese Coffee. This was sad. It tasted like American coffee that had been watered down. And the chai mixed coffee, that tasted like a Christmas cookie was mixed with the watery coffee. Not good. I'm not sure what kind of chai that was but it's not anything I've ever had and it did not mix well with the "coffee". I don't like giving bad reviews... Service: Service was the thing that gave it one of the stars. The lady who served me was extremely nice. Ambiance: This is what gave the other star. The inside is very homey and relaxed. I would love to sit in there and chill with a cup of good Ca Phe. read more

This is definitely a hole in the wall coffee/boba shop in the midst of Webster. It's nice little shop that fits the vibes of meeting someone to catch up, coffee date, or studying. There is a menu on a table when you walk in and also on the wall. I do think the menu on the wall could get a full clean and then rewrite the items on there or update it to something that may be easier to read or stand out. I didn't have much interaction with the worker but she seemed nice. I ordered a Vietnamese coffee with honey instead of condense milk (watching my sugar intake). It was good except I wish it had more coffee taste. Usually I could taste a strong coffee taste but that wasn't the case here. Still good though. I would come back and try other things and maybe one of their pastries. This place is a gem so check it out. Support the local. read more

My all-time favorite place to visit. I've been coming here for the last few years and I still wish I could come here every day. It's so peaceful and homey inside, I could sit in here for an entire day. Owner is the sweetest and works quickly and efficiently. I always get an unsweet iced jasmine tea and pork banh mi, it's so good every single time. Ive also tried a few other drinks on the menu and I've got to say everything has been a 10/10. I've never reviewed a place before, but this place is so perfect I can't help but leave a review. I wish the owner lots of business and prosperity! read more

Ca Phe Phin - Strawberry Fruit Tea - Vietnamese Near Me - Houston, Texas

Came here right before the Space museum bc we all need coffee in our life. I love the idea of having a Vietnamese coffee cafe. It has your traditional vietnamese coffee with condense milk and the slow drip but with a hint of vanilla. Very unique. I got the lavender chai and it was delish. Not super sweet and not overly lavender. I love their unique twist on a coffee cafe. This makes it available for everyone to try something new but also familiar. I would love to see an egg coffee on their menu which is very popular in Vietnam. Sounds weird but tastes like tiramisu. Also I would love that the cafe is more open since there is only one worker when I went it, would show that someone is working and making the coffee fresh (like Starbucks) rather than an empty counter. read more

I have a head for business and a body for SIN So take your plans and put them in the BIN Cause I have a place to go in just a MIN So you better notify your next of KIN Otherwise they might not let you IN They have Cafe Sua Da for the WIN And their Banh Mi's mix well with Tonic and GIN If you come here too much you'll get a DOUBLE CHIN But it's all worth it for CA PHE PHIN WHAT Not to be confused with the Ca Phe Fin, which is for sharks. Loan Sharks, Card Sharks, contestants on Shark Tank, but nevertheless... Sharks. Sharks, I tell you. Adorable little place in the distant suburbs southeast of Houston, halfway to Galveston. Has good Vietnamese coffee and good Banh Mi sandwiches - and really great decor. The little old lady running the place is adorable - as is your mother (for very different reasons) during Netflix & Chill sessions (without the Netflix usually). Oh I Phegot that I wasn't supposed to tell you about that. There are many places to get these sandwiches and this type of Vietnamese iced coffee in the Houston area, which is a hotbed for Viet food and drink, but this one stands up to a lot of the other top choices. You will Ca Phe Phinish everything on your plate. When you come down to the South East Burbs of HTX, be sure to try this place, and the spectacular Spring Roll Express nearby, for the best of the Vietburbs. Now I have to pop out, but I'll be back in 2 Sharks of a Lamb's tail. read more

If you have a hard time pronouncing what this place is called, Ca Phe, is Cafe spelled a different way and Phin. Basically Cafe Phin. At Ca Phe, you'll find yourself in another relaxed mood as when you walked in. I found myself reaching many climaxes of relaxation. I tended to order something light like tea, but as soon as I'd seen, Phin's favorite I figured well what the heck, go with something that the cafe likes. Creamy Avocado smoothie, I'm thinking why again am I ordering something with avocado in it? I don't favor avocados that much, but then again this is Phin's favorite. Phin didn't disappoint and I can see why this is his or hers favorite. A light, but slightly sweeten taste of avocado and sweetness, maybe condensed milk. Such a perfect combination. I also must add that I didn't taste any froth or gritty texture as I'm hinting the smoothies aren't mainly powdered mix. It had a consistency of pudding though. That's a good sign. A laid-back vibe and music from their native culture adds such a touch of character to this cafe. The owners do speak the English language here. Majority of drinks and food is cheap which is wonderful for college students and frugal people. There are magazines and interesting books on the bookshelves and the wifi is free with a passcode. The restroom is unisex, but so clean and smells so fresh. Even the toilet tissue was soft. On the other hand, the parking situation can be tricky as they share a lot with nearby strip stores, mostly Asian ones and a cooking class place. Located right off of NASA Rd 1, in a shopping centre with other Asian eateries. read more

Was driving around the south side of Houston, when I came across this local gem. Stopped here with my Mom looking for some Vietnamese coffee. I ordered #7, the coffee ice cream float, basically a cold brew Vietnamese coffee with a scoop of mediocre vanilla ice cream. I enjoyed mine and mom loved her authentic Viet coffee (#2)! The place is super aesthetic with nice decor and seating, clean, COVID friendly. The lady at the front was wearing a face shield and they had a sign that said no mask no service! I wouldn't mind going back to try something else. Overall experience was an 8 out 10. read more

Very cute family-owned business. It is a much smaller, quaint coffee shop with cultural interior design, very similar to what you'd see in local shops in Vietnam. I ordered the classic #2 Ca phe sua da (slow drip coffee w/ condensed milk) and it's one of the best drinks I've had in a while. $4.33 after tax. The volume was about 2/3 of a "Tall" drink at Starbucks. I just wish the portions were bigger for the price, hence the 4 stars. This place would be great for a casual date with friends. Because it is family-owned, however, don't expect too much in terms of speed & service. The owner is very soft-spoken and nice. When I visited, she was the only one working the cash register, making the drinks/orders, and unloading the supplies in the back. The customers seemed respectful & understanding of her efforts despite the prolonged time, which was really nice to see. Hoping this shop gets larger tables & comfier chairs for students who'd love to come study! I can see myself here often in the future if there was a bigger study space available. read more

Tasty sandwiches and cake! The Vietnamese sandwich was delicious- good bread and the pork meat was seasoned well.

What a cute coffee/tea house! It has a lot of coffee, smoothie, and other drink options. I went there for the ca phe sua da, of course. It was initially too sweet, but it got better after being watered down. I've had better... but I loved their banana almond nut milk smoothie! It was light and perfect! I wish I had ordered that one first. At the end, we bought a bag of jasmine tea, and our elder relatives loved it! The interior is great for studying. It's a bit small, but they have plenty of 1-2 person tables and a couple of plump, comfortable chairs. read more

LOVE this place -- beautifully decorated and relaxing vibe. Food and drinks are served in a very appealing way, I.e: sandwiches and napkins come in little baskets, very cute. I ordered a jasmine (sweetened) tea with tapioca and a slice of Japanese cheesecake, both were very enjoyable. I also liked that not all the mugs and glasses were the same, kinda made it feel like each order was personalized for the customer. There are also different options for seating (comfortable soft chairs by the window, wicker chairs at a table, etc.). Would definitely come back and would definitely recommend. Good for a date maybe, too ;^) read more

Ca Phe Phin - A view from my table. - Vietnamese Near Me - Houston, Texas

I am a little obsessed with the iced Phin Love with coffee jelly. Okay, a lot obsessed. It costs around $4.50 and it's worth every penny. They have a pretty extensive menu, but don't worry the staff is super friendly and happy to explain any items. I typically get mine to-go but they have a nice little seating area if you felt like staying. I would give their drinks 5 stars, but one huge factor just won't allow for it. They don't open until NOON on weekends! Really? Also, I went by at 7:30 am on a weekday (before work) and they weren't open then either. What gives? So, I've been limited to only getting my favorite drink on the weekend afternoons. If they had better hours I would give them all five stars because the quality of their coffee and the service are all top notch! read more

Ca Phe Phin - Menu - Vietnamese Near Me - Houston, Texas

Coffee here is suc-q-lent... meaning, I can finish that iced medium, sugar-free vanilla latte in 5 minutes! No joke! The coffee here is strong and tasty. It actually reminds me of a good iced coffee from McDonald's, but with better beans and fresh coffee (I've had a few from Mickey D's where the freshness was in question). Anyway, the only thing I don't like about this place is how dark it feels inside. It's not a bright coffeehouse. It's small and cute, but I wish there was more lighting! Wifi is free (which is always a plus). I notice they have some vietnamese pastry/bakery good, but I didn't get a chance to try it. So I probably will give it a shot the next time I'm down here. I only come out where when my work sends me to Galveston, which is almost on a monthly basis so... I shall update! read more
