I lived in Lacey back in 2006 and they had nothing like this when I was around. Glad to see some trendy cafes open up and doing it well. The Vietnamese coffee with the salt foam was delicious and the egg, bacon, cheese breakfast sandwich was absolute fire.
The food was fresh and tasty. The bánh mì sandwiches were very good- recommend. You can't go wrong with the drink menu too. Very tasty. Lots of seating for a solo or group trip.
Staff was friendly. But the music was so loud when first walking in, I could barely hear the barista when ordering my coffee. Some of their music did have profanity language. Otherwise, their food was pretty good, I do recommend coming here for their egg sandwich, I added bacon and avocado. ( if you know EggSlut in Las Vegas, I would say their sandwiches taste just as good!) we'll definitely be back for them.
Love the ambiance here seating is limited it's small & when it's busy there's hardly indoor seating I'm assuming when it's warmer that they offer outdoor seating ? Staff was nice & fast they accidentally charged me for two drinks & told me to keep the second drink I low key was stoked but struggled to finish them lol They offer sandwiches & I ordered their grilled cheese it was one of the best I've had in a long time. I ant to come back & try their breakfast sandwiches.
Visited this spot for the first time and it was super cute. Love their distant breakfast sandwiches and drink options. If i lived locally, i would have to go back to try all the things! My breakfast sando was sooo yummy. I still need to finish it!!
Strawberry matcha and egg sandwich were both very delicious. The egg sandwich was the star for me super fluffy eggs, fresh lettuce, and the bread was perfectly toasted. Everything came together really well and made it a standout. The strawberry matcha was refreshing and nicely layered. Once mixed, it had a great balance of sweet and earthy flavors. The staff were friendly and helpful when it came to choosing a sandwich. The shop itself has a clean, cozy vibe, and the presentation of both the food and drink was on point. Definitely a spot I'd come back to.
As soon as we walked in we were greeted by a sweet smiling face. We asked about what's we spill get she recommended the egg sandwich. OMG it was a delicious experience. Definitely a few napkins were needed
This new family owned business js so cute and serves great drinks and food. Pictures is a blueberry matcha latte alright my favorite is their coconut matcha cloud. I've heard others rave about their egg sandwiches as well
Finally tried Just Cuz Cafe after hearing all the hype for it the past year. This might become a new go to spot for me! The drinks and food were great, the staff was super friendly, and the whole vibe inside was upbeat and fun. I love a cafe with a little chatter and energy. Prices were reasonable and everything came out fresh and hot. I ordered the Banana Match and Egg Banh Mi, and my partner ordered the Mango Freeze and Turkey Pesto. Everything hit the spot. I'm already looking forward to going back and trying more of their menu!
Just Cuz Cafe is a Vietnamese-themed cafe located in Lacey, a short walk from Saint Martin's University. The parking situation is a bit limited in the area, but manageable. There are street parking and a parking lot behind the complex the cafe is located in. Do be mindful where you park because it looks like this parking lot is meant for residents living in the apartments in this area. I noticed there were some other parking lots nearby that were quite spacious but might have been for other businesses in the other. I have been wanting to visit this cafe for a while and finally decided to over the weekend. I rarely ever go down south of Tacoma, so it was a nice change of scenery. It was a bit busier than I expected it to be at 11:20AM on a Sunday. However, my sister and I were able to snag a table after placing our order with the cashier/barista. I ordered the Strawberry Matcha Latte for myself while my sister ordered a regular Matcha Latte. We both ordered our own Bacon Eggsential sandwiches as a little breakfast/brunch item. The Bacon Eggsential is a sandwich made with bacon, soft scrambled eggs, garlic croissant toast, cheese, lettuce, tomato, red onion, sweet mayo, and chives. The sandwiches were SO GOOD. It was truly worth the $14 for the sandwich. It was a lot bigger than we expected, too. It was honestly a bit intimidating when it was brought out to us. It was beautifully crafted and plated up to show the softness of the scrambled eggs and melted cheese. The drinks were good, better than some other matcha places I have tried for sure. I liked that the cups were on the bigger side too. If there is one thing I recommend ordering, it's the Bacon Eggsential sandwich! If you aren't a bacon fan, there is one without bacon!
I've been here a few times, and I am always looking for an excuse to swing by even though it's out of the way of my normal routines. The strawberry matcha here must have some kind of addictive chemical in it, because it's one of the best drinks I've had in my entire life. Delicious matcha and a perfect level of sweetness and strawberry flavor to complement it, without overpowering the matcha. I assume it's real matcha and not artificially sweetened like it is at coffee chains like Starbucks. The coffee is phenomenal too. Really well brewed espresso, very flavorful, not burnt at all. This is a great place to stop for a drink on the go or to sit and enjoy the nice vibes while working. Every employee I've interacted with has always been incredibly friendly. Great place!
Food: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 5/5 Parking: 3/5 Family friendly: 5/5 Stroller friendly: 5/5 ADA accessible: 5/5 Came here on a random weekend with the fam at about 1030 am and THIS PLACE IS PUMPIN'! I actually felt a sorry for the girl up front taking orders. She was running the cashier as well as making the hand made drinks! We ordered a couple of egg sandwiches ( highly recommend I think around $10). Japanese style eggs on toasted brioche bread with some sorry of tangy, mayonnaise - sy sauce, lettuce, tomatoes , and red onions! Def was a decadent sandwich. I also tried a blended Coconut coffee ($8), house coffee ($7) and matcha latte ($7). All were quality made and excellent tasting. Being from Southern California, it great to see something like this pop up in the area! I thoroughly enjoyed all that was ordered. Inside there is also a nod to the SoCal lifestyle with it's laid-back decor and ambiance. The is a small lounge to chill at, about 8 tables to sit around and hang out at asks plenty of room for strollers, wheelchairs too be inside. Def drop by here if you're in the area. You will not regret it.
My son and I favorite place to go for breakfast. The sandwiches and coffee are so delicious and service was great. It can get busy and it is a small cafe. Many order to go when it's busy.
A coworker of mine recommended I try Just Cuz Cafe for their coffee so I stopped by this morning from a quick treat. I ordered the banana latte and chocolate muffin. I really enjoyed the latte as the syrups are made in house and it had a true banana flavor and didn't taste fake. I also loved having a warm muffin to go with it. I have only 4 stars because the ambiance wasn't all there but overall the service and food was pretty good. I would definitely return to try some other items. read more
My husband and I stopped by Just Cuz Café for lunch today, and it's such a cute little spot! I ordered the matcha latte, which was really good--I'm already looking forward to coming back to try the strawberry matcha latte next. The salted cheese foam on top was absolutely delicious and really made the drink stand out. My husband got the black milk tea and said it was chef's kiss--definitely a win. We ordered two of the "Eggssential" sandwiches--one with bacon and one without--and both were excellent. A small note--the chairs are visibly worn, and one was falling apart, but my husband was able to swap it out easily, so it didn't impact our experience. The music had a really nostalgic vibe, which we enjoyed. The only thing I'd mention is that a few songs had explicit lyrics, so it might be something to keep in mind for families with young kids. Overall, the food and drinks were amazing, and the girl at the register was friendly. We'll definitely be back! read more

This place hit the spot on the way to Hoh Rainforest! Plenty of street parking on rainy Saturday morning and it wasn't busy. Good for us! We ordered two iced Vietnamese coffee and shared a beef Banh mi sandwich. There were quite some seating areas inside where people were dodging the rain and enjoying a nice brekkie. We had our food together go, but the coffee definitely perks up our road trip energy. Vietnamese coffee hits different and to go it off with salty cream. Yum! The sandwich....OH EM GEE! It was so good! I didn't have it right away since I was driving, but 3 hours into it I got hungry. The bread was still soft and not like a day old hard baguette and the flavor was on point. I truly enjoyed it. Just wish it wasn't far from home. Will definitely come back! read more
What a hidden gem! Just Cuz Cafe is such a cute spot in Olympia. I stopped in for a Chicken Banh Mi and a Hazelnut Latte, and both were absolutely yum. The sandwich was delicious and the coffee was perfect. If you are looking for a cozy place with great food, definitely give this one a try. read more

The food never disappoints and we love the tea drinks! The staff there are always so friendly and welcoming. The ambiance gives off the come in and chill for a while. Restrooms are always clean when we visit. I would definitely recommend this place without hesitation and love to come here when I get together with my girlfriends that visit. The beef banh mi and chicken banh mi is what we usually get and the drinks are black tea and lychee green tea. The strawberry matcha is also delicious as well. Oh and the blueberry scone is a must try. read more
Ordered ahead when running errands and went to pick up. Parking is mostly street parking but didn't have a hard time finding a spot. Staff was friendly and welcomed me in. My food order was ready but they waited to make my drink when I was in there. I love the matcha here and the egg sandwich is so soft and fluffy. It is a bit messy so make sure to grab extra napkins. There's plenty of seating and it's also a nice little cafe to get some work done. Will be back. read more
Wow ...I'm am very impressed!! I thought that all banh mi were the same...not until I tried this one!! Impressed I was indeed.. the taste was oh so good I even ordered one to go! This little place was popping!! Now I know why! I will definitely be back!! I can't explain why it is so good!! You just have to try it!! read more

Vibes are amazing and staff are always so friendly. My only feedback is the air, it feels a little congested in there. Maybe finding away to get the doors to be open or windows? read more

Love: Delicious sandwich, especially the sauce. Love the lemon water, with nearby straws. Quick to receive our to go orders each visit, but still good quality. Could be better: The music was super loud and overstimulating Limited evening food options when we have come in the past - For example the Eggssential stops being served but is a menu highlight Limited drink options/flavors, especially Boba type. We love garlic butter, but something else has a not so loved after taste in the grilled cheese. Prices are a bit expensive - $12 for only the Eggssential (after tax) today. For cafe quick food this seems a little high. read more

Vibes. I came here on a mini road trip and was craving a breakfast sandwich and this place did not disappoint. Probably one of the best breakfast sandwiches I've ever had. I'm inspired to try and make this at home. The toast is almost like Texas toast and I'm all about that. We ordered and not even five minutes later our entire order was ready, so they are very quick! read more

A must stop for the milk coffee and cheese foam! The egg essential sandwich is a dream come true!! This could be in Bon Appetite Friendly service, cooked to order food. read more
I truly enjoy Just Cuz Cafe whenever I am in the area. They have the absolute BEST "Eggsential" egg sandwiches I've ever eaten! Just look at the pictures for yourself, but before you do, make sure you have a towel to wipe your screen. The eggs are so light and fluffy. The sauce pairs nicely. The lettuce, onions and tomatoes are fresh. You really need to try this for yourself. If I lived closer, I would be here as a daily regular. Really popular coffee shop. read more

The vibe here is transformative and music to match. The egg sandwiches are amazing. Get extra napkins as it can get messy. You order at the front and can get pretty busy but worth the wait. read more

The workers were welcoming and kind took my order with Grace. I felt very understood. I was thoroughly impressed with the menu. It was simple and easy to read. I got two of their slush drinks, which were very good yeah things were looking up until the bathroom incident.. there was two bathrooms, both single the first one I went to had no toilet paper. I will say there was a nice note written on toilet paper that said no toilet paper. so I went into the other one the other bathroom did have toilet paper, but when I went to wash my hands, there was no soap surprise surprise. there was also no paper towels or any way to dry my hand to talk things off, which was just the rotten cherry on top. The breakfast sandwich and grilled cheese was pretty good though extremely cheesy ha ha get it. read more

First time here, and what I've seen from the reviews and comments they should have an intro combo!! Get the strawberry matcha latte with the eggsellent sandwich! Friendly greeting when you walk in, and the employee was super sweet to suggest items on the menu for me. Very clean and spaced out well. From the R&B remixes, the plants, food, and beverages I think I found my new fav place to go in Lacey! read more

Strawberry Matcha Latte- Very good balance of strawberry purée to the matcha and milk. Definitely a go to drink Bacon Egg Sandwich- Wow. Absolutely phenomenal. The greatest breakfast sandwich I have ever had. Zero complaints. Lots of soft scrambled eggs, balanced nicely with the fresh vegetables, thick cut bacon, and the sweet mayonnaise. The toasted garlic croissant bread was the perfect touch. The size of this sandwich was great, with it being on the bigger side. I loved absolutely everything about it. This sandwich is a must try when visiting Just Cuz Cafe. You will by no means be disappointed in giving it a try! read more

I ordered the egg bahn mi and it was top shelf delicious! A buttery and luscious egg with crispy and fresh vegetables encased in the warm embrace of a French baguette. We will return when the weather is warmer to try the cold drinks. read more
got banh mi sandwiches for Kai and me to celebrate his birthday, and it was really good! Very filling. A bit pricey, yes. More on the spicy end, but tolerable. Have water on standby, which you can refill yourself. Very Small cups offered, though. Cute decorations that are reminiscent of every café in San Francisco, or female dorm that was at my Alma mater, university of San Francisco. U got the bright white lights, white furniture, and plants that hang from high above then sitting in a pot on the ground. This got to be the Asian hidden gem because why so many Asians here omg I felt like I was at home! The restaurant really was okay, but maybe because the location is more so known for its drinks, which I did not order. Lots of different type of tabling options from booth to couch to bench to standard dining table. Really nice place to study at if that is what you plan to do for the day. Not at all loud. Maybe keep the plants away from cashier area where most foot traffic occurs because someone knocked over the potted plant on the ground. Staff were kind and even delivered our orders to our table! Totally unexpected. Cleaned up after ourselves, so please remember to do this as best as u can to maintain the hygienic look of this place! Thank u read more
