The place is spacious. It's a vietnamese own place, and the waiter can speak vietnamese. We only came here by coincidence. It was good, but not as good based on my friend's coffee preference. I don't have a strong opinion overall. read more

Cafes Quan - Vietnamese Near Me - San Jose, California

My friend and I came here for the first time. The location and atmosphere were very nice and relaxing. Our drinks were good, and I especially enjoyed the matcha. The service was friendly and helpful. The place was clean, and the wait time wasn't too long. It was a nice place to try. read more

Friendly service and very open seating inside. Parking can be a bit of a challenge, so the Tully location is better if you want more space / no issues finding parking. The general area at this location, being near Walmart and Vietnam Town makes it a very busy area. Ordered the Ube coffee and salt coffee. Both are very good and I think the coffee is quite strong, not as sweet as other spots with Vietnamese iced coffee. It feels like they put less condensed milk, which I appreciate because I like that hit of coffee taste. Definitely my go to spot whenever I'm around the area and in need of cafe sua da. They also serve food here and sell a thin version of banh mi called banh mi que. It's about $5 and a good snack if you're in a pinch and don't want a whole sandwich to eat. read more

I came here specifically to try their slim bánh mì sandwiches and ordered four (three pâté with chả lụa and one combo), along with a dozen mini beignets. After paying at the kiosk, a staff member came out a few minutes later to let me know they only had enough slim bread for two sandwiches. At the counter, I was offered the option to switch the remaining two to regular bánh mì, along with a $1 refund. The refund calculation was wrong, but I didn't want to make a big deal out of it and accepted it. On the bright side, the slim bánh mì were excellent, so it was disappointing they only had two available. Unfortunately, the regular bánh mì didn't live up to the same standard and weren't enjoyable. The mini beignets, however, were a highlight, they were soft, pillowy, and absolutely delicious. read more

The drinks are nice, but the service could be better. Review is for Cafes Quan 2 location near Walmart. Milk texture is amazing, and place has nice AC and ventilation. Barista forgot to put Boba in my drink and had to ask to remake drink. This was in a Wednesday night. Picture is Peach Milk Tea. read more

This is the newest Cafes Quan location to open up. Nestled off of Story Rd, CQ took over the location where Bobo Drinks used to be. The drinks menu itself is pretty spot-on to the Lion Plaza location but the snacks differ. You will not find any macarons here but instead they carry croc shaped waffles filled with cheese [no other flavor offerings are available]. Purchases: *Croc Waffles [pair] * BANH MI QUE CO COMBINATION SPECIAL * Coconut Coffee * Egg Coffee The young lady handling the ordering and register was nice. The unfortunate part was her not speaking English too well so there was a bit of a mishap when we placed our order- our order for a CQ coconut milk coffee with jelly ended up being a coconut coffee. Lmao. No apology, no offering to remake the drink, she just responded with: "this is what you ordered" Insert the WTF EMOJI FACE. Good: The coconut coffee [not what we initially wanted or ordered] and the egg coffee was great. These tasted exactly just like the Lion Plaza CQ. Bad: The crocs waffles are trash- the batter was not remotely sweet and the cheese center was super skimp. The powdered sugar provided with it could not salvage the taste and we had to grab our condense milk and dunk each bite. Even with that attempt, we couldn't even finish one shoe. Don't waste your money on this. The Banh mi wasn't much better. This was the first time I ever tried this item and let me tell you how disappointed I was to receive bread that tasted stale and old. Do yourself a favor and get yourself a real Banh mi elsewhere if this is what you're craving. 3 stars and I feel like that's me being kind. Not sure if I'd come back to this location, I think I'd prefer the original Cafes Quan. Meh. read more

It was great to see that Cafes Quan was opening a new location! We noticed it took over the old Bobo tea. We usually go to the location on Tully, but this new location was closer to where we were living at the time. When we first went there, the drinks are pretty good but for some reason it wasn't as good as the drinks that are made at the Tully location. It's nice to see that they also have food, so you can definitely eat there and try their food, but we personally have not yet. Yet. Tully location does not have a food menu compared to this location. But again, we haven't tried it yet. There have been a few times where we have come here and it's older employees taking our order. There was a couple of times that we were ordering a milk tea but for some reason the employee kept repeating "Vietnamese coffee" to us. There's definitely a lot more space here compared to the Tully location. I feel like it would be a nice place to hang out and have some snacks. Unfortunately we don't live in the area anymore, so we haven't been back lately. To be honest, if we wanted Cafes Quan we would most likely go to the telly location. read more

Drinks here are SOO good!! My friend and I got the pandan latte and salted coffee. The barista recommended 50% sweet and 100% sweet for those drinks respectively and we got 50 for both but we should've listened to her LOL. Pandan was a good amt of sweetness but the salted coffee was bitter at 75% sweet. The barista knew what she was talking about so take their recommendation. Place was clean but it was also cold and the music was SOO loud so we went to our car.. They also had these cool croc waffles .. we didn't order them but i've never seen anything like that Id want to come back and try those and the CQ coffee! read more

Stumble upon this place since it was near where we were having lunch. Ordered the banana matcha, although it looked pretty, it was lacking that deep matcha taste and could also use more banana flavor. We also ordered the beignets, and made the mistake of ordering the 6 pack thinking the size of the beignets would be small... they were not, they were huge. However, we finished all 6. Delicious. I would comeback just for the beignets. read more

Cafes Quan - Banana Matcha - Vietnamese Near Me - San Jose, California

Before heading to walmart we wanted to stop by for something semi-sweet. The pictures told one story and the actual drink said another. Maybe it was my fault for ordering 50% sweet but wish it had a bit more of the egg foam. my mom ordered 25% sweet and it literally had 0 of the coconut flavor. Over all, 7/10 coffee flavor was good and creamy.Beignet were fluffy and chewy! Really recommend the beignets!! read more

We tried this newer loc and this one is more spacious than the other location to me. The decor was cute inside and they even had some decor outside too. Service was fine and drinks didn't take too long after ordering. We tried the pandan coffee and one of the new drink- crème brûlée matcha. The crème brûlée matcha was too sweet and was just okay to me. My husband had the pandan coffee and liked it and says the coffee is strong the way he likes. Cute decor inside overall and will try other drinks next time. read more

This used to be Bobo drinks but now it's a second location of Cafes Quan just off of Story Rd. Same ownership, just rebranded. If you know you know, this cafe is owned by the famous Vietnamese singer Dan Truong. Met his wife the other day here at Cafes Quan and she was super friendly and sweet while we were deciding what to order. I went with the sea salt green tea which was an amazing decision. The green tea was fragrant and perfectly contrasted the sea salt cream on top. The cups are a bit small here, I'm assuming it is because they specialize in coffee but I wish there were bigger sizes! Shop is honestly massive with tons of seating. It's a complete transformation of what Bobo drinks used to look like. Cafes Quan is an underrated spot worth checking out and deserves more recognition. read more

Cafes Quan - Sea Salt Green Tea - Vietnamese Near Me - San Jose, California

Nice service and does the job for a quick coffee or tea and bathroom break. I stopped by for the loo and had a seas salt green tea as well. It was alright although I forgot to ask to adjust the overly sweet drink. I was disappointed that matcha was not an option, as with many cafes nowadays. However, coffee did seem to be the specialty here! read more

Cafes Quan - Sea salt green tea - Vietnamese Near Me - San Jose, California

I like the drinks however, I ordered a coffee with no ice and they charged $1 FOR NO ICE! That's insane and doesn't make sense. I went to the other location on Tully and they did not charge for no ice so I'll be going to that location instead. Business being greedy will lose customers, sorry. Have better business practices... read more

Oh my goodness this was one of THE worst experiences I've ever had with food. I came tonight to grab some boba and try the sate squid. We got everything to go and it was $30 for 2 milk teas and the sate squid. First of all the bobas tasted so old and just atrocious, I got a strawberry milk tea and a mango milk tea with boba. The teas both tasted like those cocktail syrups and nothing like the fruit at all. The cashier lady also upgraded both of our drinks without even letting us know or asking and we saw it at the last second on the screen that it was upgraded to a large for a dollar more or so, but that doesn't even matter it would've been nice to get a headsup but after trying the food and drinks I'm pissed. The squid tasted like dish soap, I don't know if it was the dishes they used or what but it wasn't just a little it tasted way too strongly of dish soap that it wasn't genuinely inedible. The bobas were bad okay no big deal but we also found a strand of hair INSIDE THE PEARLS and not even one there was atleast 2 so we threw everything out. OVERALL A TERRIBLE PLACE FOR PROBABLY ANYTHING DON'T COME HERE ITS DISGUSTING. read more

Very good banh mi. Tony but still good meat to bread ratio. The egg cafe sua day is really good too. Strong coffee flavor with rich and creamy taste. Service was fast too. read more

I like that this shop opens early. I wanted some coffee after eating breakfast at the food court and noticed they already opened at 8am! I tried the salted cream coffee. It's very strong! My husband loved it though, I had to wait for it to iced down a bit. The cup size is small, but I feel it's good enough as Viet coffee is too strong to have it in a larger size. Will come back yo try their matcha. I love the cute decor as well. read more

The BEST coffee I ever have with good service. I have to stop by every morning to get one before go work.

I saw this place today and randomly decided I was going to give it a try , i am so glad I did. the drinks are delicious. The young lady that helped me today was helpful and very patient with me because I couldn't decide on what drink to order. They all sounded so good. A bit on the pricey side but it was very good and I will definitely be returning. read more

We mostly go here for their bánh mì sticks with pate and pork floss. So good to have a freshly toasted bread.

When I first walked in, there were people standing at the counter but they weren't even ready to order. Instead of just taking my order, the lady made me wait while they stood around looking at the menu. She finally took my order, but that was just the beginning. While I waited, I saw her personally walk the other table's items over to them, all smiles and bubbly. Meanwhile, I kept waiting...and waiting. Over 20 minutes went by and still no drink. Mind you, the people before me already had everything. I even gave it a few more minutes and nothing. I finally had to go up to the register and ask if my drink was even coming. That's when they all suddenly scrambled, peeked into the kitchen, and realized they had completely forgotten my order. They made it in less than a minute -- which just proves I could've had it a long time ago if they had been paying attention. The service was careless and honestly disrespectful. read more

Update your hours I've tried coming here twice during the open hours and it's been closed

not sure if it was just an off day, but i was unimpressed. -the coffee is great but i received a regular size instead of the large i was charged for. i could've said something but honestly wasn't worth the hassle. -the banana matcha was really bad tbh. it tasted really off and there was very minimal banana cream. i couldn't handle more than 2 sips, had to throw it out. -the beignets are alright. i don't know how they're supposed to be but it wasn't anything noteworthy. better off grabbing a donut, personally. i haven't tried anything else yet but if we're talking about cafes quan drinks, the one on tully in lion plaza is much better. if i had to go to this location, i'd stick to the coffee over the matcha. the cashier was friendly though. read more
