    Forest Cafe offers a variety of drinks and treats, including coffee, boba, tanghulu, and croffles. I tried the ube milk tea and the croffle, and while both were tasty, I found the sweetness a bit overwhelming towards the end. As of this review, they have a discount on drinks before 11 AM, which is a great perk if you're an early bird.

    I ordered a caramel and hazelnut frappuccino and loved it! I also thought it was really cool how they use a soda can-style top with clear sides. JA got the iced matcha latte and loved it too, but said she would order light ice next time. It's such a cute coffee shop, open until 11pm, and they have desserts I haven't tried yet but definitely want to!

    Quick service and mutiple menus to look at. I ordered the Ube Latte and it was delish! Def coming back to try the pandan and black sesame lattes!

    Great spot if you're looking for a refreshing pat bingsoo esp. during the hot summer! They've also got the ice cream waffles, fruit tanghulu, boba tea, and coffee drinks. Staff are very nice. Space is kinda small and quiet - they're located next to 9292 Shabu Shabu in the Kroger shopping center. SWEET RED BEAN SHAVED ICE - $9.99 Perfect size for 2 people to share - but if you're feeling indulgent, maybe one person could enjoy the whole dessert. This version has the sweet red beans, 1 scoop vanilla ice cream, and a few mochi over the snowflakey shaved ice ... I couldn't tell if the shaved ice was made of milk or sweetened condensed milk ... I loved all of it so much. Great light dessert and therefore guilt-free lol ... maybe I could've eaten a second bowl? :) My friends both got the latte's and said they were very good - very cute cups w/ the unique aluminum can tops. We'll definitely be back for sure - I'd like to try the strawberry or mango bingsoo next time!

    Cute cafe, located to the side of a Kroger shopping center. Overall good drinks, dessert and cakes. We took the blueberry milk home and surprisingly I enjoyed it more than I thought. The taiyaki has good texture and custard flavor. My husband enjoyed his mango bingsoo and the size is just perfect for an individual serving vs other places with humongous serving size.

    Forest cafe makes delicious bingsoo! I'm a mango lover, so I got the mango bingsoo. I loved how the portion size if the bingsoo was perfect for 2 people and only $10. This is a cute new dessert cafe. The interior is inviting and clean, though small, so seating is limited. Staff is friendly. They also have some other cool items on the menu - dessert waffles, flat croissants, fresh fruit juice, tanghulu, etc. I'll definitely be returning to try some of their other menu items!

    Flat Nutella Croissant. We kinda started munching on it, lol.

    Love the vibe if this place! My daughter and I wanted to try "Tang Hulu" as we have never had it before. Sure enough, Forest Cafe was all about this dessert. We ordered two grape Tang Hulu and two mixed Tang Hulu full of strawberry and grapes. We also ended iur order with a Nutella flat croissant. Everything was delicious!

    There is a nice selection of different desserts in this cute cafe. There are unique options like tanghulu, cakes, and various pastries. The desserts I tried were delicious but were a bit dry and room temperature like they have been sitting out all day. That's totally fine but it's not as great as having a freshly baked or just warmed dessert. I would still recommend the items I tried but I have had better similar desserts at cafes in NYC. For metro Atlanta, I think it's very good though. I tried the large strawberry croissant and it's very big and flattened out. It's nice and crisp as well with sprinkles on it. I also liked the strawberry fish-shaped pastry. The filling was good. These desserts are sweet but not overly sweet. There's also a nice selection of various drinks. I'm not entirely sure which drink I tried but I think it was some type of juice recommended by the staff.

    The place itself isn't particularly aesthetic. The cafe's selling point is definitely the items they sell. While I didn't order the tanghulu, they were very popular, and they had a good selection displayed (strawberries, grapes, tangerines, berries, cherry tomatoes, a mix of fruit, croissant). We didn't go at a busy time, so they were fast with our orders. We ordered drinks and a dessert to share. I ordered the strawberry ade, and my friend got a cookies and cream drink. We ordered what I think is called long parfait, but I'm not entirely sure, which was maybe a little too much for the two of us. We both liked our drinks. The dessert though... Three skewer sticks lined with strawberries, whipped cream piped in between over yogurt, cereal, and strawberry jam. It came with chocolate syrup on the side and was very much ordered for the visuals. The strawberries and whipped cream were fresh, the strawberry jam was a bit too much for me, and neither of us were a fan of the cereal. I would come here again though for different desserts. I like the how their drinks came out, it's very unique and fun.

    Tanghulu
    Giao O.

    Delicious delicious tanghulu! To my surprise, their strawberries are sweet as well not just because of the sugar coat. Matcha drink was okay as it tastes more milky than matcha flavor, but I love the chocolate cracking idea.

    Milk and sweet red bean Bingsoo (Shaved Ice) - great portion size, quality, and taste. Excellent presentation.
    David N.

    Lovely new cafe in the area. Great employee interaction. Large menu with unique items and fully customizable. Great experience with great flavors! See photo captions.

    This is a LIVE BUG in my drink.

    I love this place and their drinks but oh my gosh. I was finishing my drink and I saw this thing CRAWLING in my drink. I'm trying to freak out about it but I'm definitely not coming back , who knows how many bugs I've ingested. So disappointed.

    The food was amazing!! The staff is super kind and welcoming. The shop is small and cozy. They play pleasant music. I enjoyed visiting here to study and will surely come back! I recommend this for a quick snack or just a place to sit and do school work.

    The tanghulu was very well made and was sweet and the fruit (the most important component) was fresh and very tasty.

The Caramel Macchiato was definitely on the sweeter side, but it paired surprisingly well with the savory takoyaki.

    My friends and I visited after I mentioned a high school friend of mine liking this place. Once I…read morerealized where it was... I was skeptical. I do not feel as though downtown Duluth truly captures the amazing food scene of the city, but again, an old friend did like it enough to tell me about it. Inside was pretty spacious. High ceilings and bright. You have to go up front and order, and they'll give you a buzzer to let you know when your food is ready. Pretty standard so far. It's not too loud, even with the music playing in the background, so not bad for hanging out with friends after the food is done, though we didn't. We were all pretty disappointed with our food. It wasn't bad, thankfully, it was just meh. We could've literally drove 5 minutes away for better, so we left as soon as we finished. The good thing is you get to choose what protein you want with your dish, which is nice. However, the chicken katsu here is thin. Also, the K-Fried chicken doesn't really mesh with the pasta. It's like a skewer on the side of your main dish. You can eat them separately and be happy enough. I was ok with the bulgogi, but I would've expected better from a Korean establishment. I haven't tried every single protein option, but I won't lie, tofu in pasta isn't the most appealing to me. For the main dishes, it was pretty bland, especially the omurice. You need the egg and the protein for flavor. The Schezwan pasta wasn't even spicy. At least the carbonara was creamy as it should be.

It's very eggy to them, which is fair, you do need more eggs than normal pancakes to make them. I don't mind at all, but they are a lot to eat alone. Good to share with friends, though it can get a bit messy to eat. I also tried a drink here, the lychee genmaicha, and it was nice. Lots of drink options in Duluth, but since I was already here, I thought that I might as well get a drink and see if it's any good. Now I'm curious about their food. They have a breakfast/lunch/brunch menu with SAVORY pancakes. I'd love to try them some time or even one of their croffles, which they can make savory or sweet as well. That being said, I've only ever been here at night after dinner. Not very busy, so there's always a table available and not much of a line. Maybe it's time for me to have some breakfast for dinner.

The Second Level / Upper Floor is reserved for if you are going to be ordering/dining in for the pastas and/or savory foods. I only tried their coffee today on the first level. I did go upstairs to check it out and did see a bunch of people upstairs just sitting and chilling on their laptops with their coffees/drinks; so they may not really enforce their "reserved for pasta dining only" rule. Not sure. Ambiance (First Level / First Floor) - clean, nice, laid-back, chill, cool environment. Casual setting. Cool architecture, design, layout, and decor. Can get loud inside as ceilings are high and can get echo-y, especially if there are alot of people. Also, there is music constantly playing in background. Service (First Level / First Floor) - customer service was quick and straightforward. They were nice and polite. A+. No complaints here. Coffee (First Level / First Floor) - tried their "Korean Iced Coffee" for $7.25. It was one size only and one price at $7.25. It was delicious. Almost similar tasting to a Vietnamese coffee in my opinion (both are delicious). That strong, brewed coffee flavor with this delicious milky, sweetened condensed milk taste. I am not exactly sure if they used sweetened condensed milk in the Korean iced coffee, but it sure does taste similar to it. It's quite good. Also had a "Large Hazelnut Hot Coffee" with creamer for $5.95. It was okay. Total with tax for the two drinks was $13.99. Keep in mind that the WiFi is on your receipt as a QR Code at the bottom. So if you want to use the WiFi, ask for the receipt and/or keep the receipt so that you can scan the QR Code in order to use the WiFi. There was no password on the receipt, only a QR Code that you need to scan. Overall - Yes I would recommend this place for a nice little coffee stop. Check it out for yourself. Enjoy!

UPDATE: Earlier I said I didn't like my Mango Matcha, now I have to change that once I put the straw in my cut and stirred the matcha it was delicious. I didn't realize I shouldn't drink it from the cup without stirring first. I feel so silly now. I changed my four stars to five stars and a newbie like me now will know to stir the matcha first. I received an awards card after ten stamps I believe I get a free item. Sounds fun. Parking is not a problem there's plenty. I can't wait to visit here again.
