    BẠC XỈU
    Melinda K.

    I'm glad there's a Vietnamese cafe that opens near my home early in the morning. There were only a few people on their laptops, peacefully. I ordered their Bac Xiu, a less caffeinated version of Vietnamese coffee with less sweetness and ice. The condensed milk still made it sweet, like 50%, and I ended up with crushed ice filling half a cup, even though I requested 25% sweetness and less ice. I also got the Bo Milk Tea, a lotus milk tea with avocado paste at 25% sweetness. There wasn't much avocado paste, and it tasted like jasmine milk tea with more ice, even though I asked for less ice. I enjoyed sitting inside the aesthetic cafe early in the morning while sipping the coffee and tea flavors, but I'm basically paying $7-8 for mostly a cup of crushed ice. Plus, the baristas were fast at completing orders.

    Interior
    Sandra N.

    Lacaphe is a hit in San Jose, but this new location is located in a funky spot. It's next to a Home Depot so theres a lot of people hanging around outside. Its on the edge of the plaza so its pretty easy to miss. Parking is much easier in this location compared to the ESJ location. The interior is modern with cool vibey wood accents. The built-in seats are unique with a firm cushion padding. The interior is pretty nice and theres even a small outdoor seating area if you have your pup with you. They have a kiosk where you can order yourself or you can try your luck with the cashier. The menu is stacked with coffee, matcha, and some teas. They have some cute merchandise available for purchase such as tote bags and tumblers. *The salted coffee or the "muoi" coffee is a staple here. The sweet and lightly salted combination is fantastic and has you craving more with each sip. Its creamy, strong and well balanced in flavors. I would get 50% sweet as someone who doesn't like coffee too sweet. *The lotus milk tea 25% sweet is also a good option. The lotus milk is creamy, light and refreshing. It's a good alternative if you don't want something highly caffeinated like coffee. What I dislike the most about Lacaphe, which the San Jose location also has in common, is the service. Somehow they find the young adults with the worst attitude and no customer service experience. Just letting everyone know, most Vietnamese people in Vietnam are kind, friendly, and hospitable. The ones in the Bay Area can be so cold and stuck-up. It's not an accurate representation of our people, I promise. I've only been here once but I noticed a few things during my 50 minute stay. Workers don't talk to you until you initiate and ask for help. They WILL ignore you unless you call for them. I also witnessed a worker scolding customers because she had been calling their order for 10 minutes or so and they didn't respond. I personally hate when bad service ruins the taste of their product. It does leave a bitter taste in customers mouth so please don't think that service doesn't matter even in fast casual setting. Lacaphe offers solid authentic Vietnamese coffees along with trendy matcha latte flavors. The upscale vibey atmosphere makes it a great spot for a coffee date or to catch up with friends. Unfortunately the service sets Lavaphe back and holds it from an almost perfect rating.

    Coco freeze & Signature Saigon
    Haley T.

    Familiar with the Lacaphe in SJ, I was excited to see this location open (even went to the grand opening). The two consistent frontrunner drinks for me: * Signature Saigon -- consistent and has the right balance of sweet for the coffee * Coco Freeze -- perfect on a hot day I've tried the MUỐI but I prefer the signature more. Ambiance is pleasant. It's a nice cafe to enjoy some time with friends here. You'll also find a decent amount of people studying here.

    Seating, plenty of it!

    Wow!! This place is delicious and cute!! I want to spend all day in there doing my work or reading a book! They have this store and one off story road in San Jose. This location just opened in June and it's ADORABLE! They had Matcha options, Vietnamese coffee, and sweetness levels. The person who took my order was so kind and patient asking me about my preferences. I asked for 25% sweetness and it was peeerrrrfect!! She served me in this paper cup which I thought was for hot coffee, but it was for my iced coffee. I got the Saigon! Omg it was delicious! I'm coming back to cozy up in a corner to read my book.

    UBE UBE MATCHA LATTE
    Alyx J.

    Had the chance to try out Fremonts newest viet coffee place! It was super yummy and i would definitely recommend others try it as well! We got the ube viet coffee and matcha ube from their matcha series! Both were SO good and had the perfect amount of ube. I am excited to go back and try more drinks! The location is a little hidden in south fremont. I wish it was a bit more central but oh well! The vibe inside is SUPER clean and natural. I love the greenery and natural colors - it makes for a super aesthetic cafe. I imagine it would be a great place to study or work!

    Ester L.

    Came back for a THIRD time just because the ube matcha was so good, and I never revisit drink spots for the drinks typically. You absolutely have to sip it directly from the cup to taste the foam, even though you'll finish it 10x faster drinks come in five minutes for order of 2, and the place gets pretty lively by 11 am (it's very peaceful at like 8) but there is still plenty of seating!

    Egg coffee and cafe bac xiu
    Kim L.

    My mom was visiting from LA, so I knew I had to bring her here for a proper Vietnamese coffee experience. She's a huge coffee lover (and pretty picky when it comes to coffee), so I was excited to see what she thought. The Bạc Xỉu was a hit! It had the perfect balance of creamy sweetness with a bold coffee flavor that wasn't overpowering. I ordered the egg coffee, and wow--it was incredibly rich, velvety, and indulgent. The silky egg cream created an almost custard-like topping that made every sip feel like a decadent dessert while still letting the coffee shine through. If you enjoy creamy coffee drinks, this one is a must. The café itself is just as impressive as the drinks. The space is bright, modern, and thoughtfully designed with an upscale aesthetic that feels inviting without being pretentious. It's the kind of place where you could easily spend an afternoon catching up with friends or getting some work done. The staff was genuinely friendly and welcoming, and despite the café being busy, our drinks came out surprisingly quickly. Great service always makes a good coffee experience even better. Whether you're already a fan of Vietnamese coffee or looking to try something beyond your usual latte, this spot is absolutely worth a visit. We'll definitely be back the next time my mom is in town!

    Stopped by on a Saturday afternoon around 3:00-3:30 PM. The café was busy, with every table occupied and a large number of online orders being prepared. You can place your order either at the kiosk or directly with the staff. Despite most of the drinks and food only requiring assembly, the wait was longer than expected. Given the setup, I expected service to be much quicker. The biggest disappointment was the coffee. I ordered it with less ice and 25% sugar, but it didn't seem like either request was followed. For a $7 coffee, the portion was surprisingly small--it was gone in just a few sips, which felt like poor value for the price. Overall, the coffee was underwhelming, the service was slow, and the portion size didn't justify the cost. Unfortunately, this visit didn't live up to the hype, and I don't see myself coming back.

    Still pretty good coffee. It was busy on a Saturday afternoon. Order by website was easy. The website will send updates for when the drinks are ready, and this is the second time I had to wait once my drinks were supposedly ready for pick up. Inside there is a pick up window but it seems like pick up is anywhere along the counter as long as you talk to the baristas. It's clean inside and plenty of seats to sit while you wait.

    Coconut

    Hooray, Lacàphê! Sooo excited to have this in our backyard and not have to trek to SJ for our caffeine fix. The space is aesthetic and roomy and has an ample number of tables inside and outside, although they can often be filled. But even with a packed house, there's still plenty of wiggle room to place and wait for orders. Eggspresso Hanoi. Lacàphê's version of egg coffee that is exactly as you would expect. Strong Vietnamese coffee with a creamy egg foam. Coconut. We were pleasantly surprised by this one! The coconut Vietnamese coffees we've tried at other places often come as a blended coffee, and it can get watered down as the ice melts. But the coconut cream in Lacàphê's Coconut adds such a richness and subtle sweetness that is the perfect pair for the bitter coffee. This might be one of our new faves! See you again soon, Lacàphê!

    Came here during soft opening! The interior is amazing. I mean just look how modern it looks. It feels like that I'm going into the future basically with the way the pick up and order windows are as well as the dining area. It was loud here and has a lot of people probably because of how good the place is here. It also gives you this type of vibe where you can work, study, and even hangout. As usual, I go for one of their signature drinks here if I haven't visited this establishment specifically the Signature Saigon. Really sweet and delicious honestly. I definitely should go for other drinks the next time I visit! Not sure if they serve food here but I gotta check again. I heard that there's a grand opening tomorrow, but decided not to attend. I went to two of them from different places and got tired of having to stand in long lines. However, I'm still looking forward for my next visit!

    Good Vietnamese coffee spot located in a small plaza. Parking can be a bit tough. Inside can get crowded easily despite the shop being decent size for a coffee place. Ordered online on Square and waited by the pick up area for a little bit but drinks ordered online are in the fridge so be sure to ask the workers if your drinks are ready. I went on a weekday around 12:00pm and it was packed inside with 2 workers. Took a bit to flag someone down but our drinks were ready in time. I got the MUỐI and my husband got the eggspresso hanoi. Both drinks were delicious and strong. The cream to coffee ratio is a bit too much though in my opinion. Wish there was less cream and more coffee. The ice amount was perfect for it being light ice. Sweetness level was good too for being 50%. Definitely on the sweeter side though so I recommend not getting 100% unless you drink your coffee VERY sweet. Wasn't biter at all. Overall, definitely recommend this spot! Delicious drinks and fast service. It seems they make the coffee and drinks prebatch FYI which makes the service quick. I wish they had a large option, hopefully they add that in the future. Love that they have matcha and teas as well.

    Signature Saigon. Yum!

    So excited we have another Vietnamese coffee shop in the Fremont area. This one is located in the old Starbucks spot beside Home Depot. Lots of parking available. If it gets busy, park in the old REI parking lot or even in the HD lot. I ordered one of their signature drinks: Signature Saigon (their house blend with cloud cream). When I asked, they said it had 3 shots of coffee. Whoa! I thought I'd be bouncing off the walls but on first sip it was actually mild. A very good ratio of coffee to their cream. Not too sweet. Definitely not bitter, but enough to taste that robust bean goodness. Also, FYI: I ordered my drink with less ice as well as 75% sweetness. Perfect for me. The day I went it was very busy (grand opening and all) but there's quite a bit of seating. Very comfy seats as well. Lots of people working on their laptops as well as groups socializing. Great atmosphere. I will definitely be back to try more items. *for oat milk lovers: oat milk is $.85 cents extra*

But if I was not paying attention, we wouldn't have known if they were done since there was no announcement. Again, I got my drink almost comped with a reward so I shouldn't complain and while my "Grasshopper" (lychee green tea with cucumber juice) was fine though I swear I am chewing on aloe pieces... something about this place is off. P.S. the staff seems to provide better service to certain demographics... (acknowledgement, announcing drinks) or is it all just concidence...or just bias on my part??

The shop is on the smaller side but has a few tables if you want to sit and enjoy your drink. It was still a little warm inside, but definitely much more comfortable than being out in the heat. One thing I appreciated was the large screen that shows the status of your order, so you always know where you are in the queue. Our drinks took a little over 10 minutes, but they were worth the wait. The brown sugar flavor was rich and delicious without being overly sweet. The boba had a nice chew to it, slightly firmer than I personally prefer, but still very good. I was also pleasantly surprised by the cup size. It's comparable to some of my favorite boba spots, yet comes at a more affordable price. With so many great places to eat in this shopping center, I know we'll be back, and this will definitely be one of our regular stops whenever we're in the area.
