    TIME: Came here around 3:00 pm on a Sunday (Father's Day) was fairly busy but it wasn't overflowing as I thought. PARKING: Lots of parking inside a plaza, but could be very hard to find a space if it is super busy. PLACE: Spacious & lots of tables and chairs to sit at, you place your order on a kiosk or you can order through the cashier. You pick up at the counter, and they send a text when it's ready but if it's busy they just call your name instead. DRINKS: Lychee - wasn't super sweet since I chose 50% but great lychee taste and there's lychee inside of the drink! Kumquat - My mouth got numb after lol but it was super good, reminds me so much of calamansi. Decent place to get some coffee or drinks!

    I've been wanting to try their coffee for the longest, and I'm glad that I got to finally it during their opening hours on a random Thursday that I was able to go. (On a funny note: I did not know that they were going to open another location in Fremont, so I'm definitely attending their grand opening when they DO open in Fremont. Fingers crossed that I will be able to attend their grand opening. While I like the cherry blossom concept behind it, it left me rather disappointed when it came to the service and making of the drinks. While the coffee shop felt spacious and more than enough space to accommodate everybody, it just felt rushed throughout the whole time I was there. Their drinks were another dimension. I got their EGGspresso Hanoi, which surprisingly, was not bad at all. I loved how consistent the egg batter was, and the consistency of the coffee was quite equal. I will be back to try their other drinks, and hoping that their customer service could improve just a little bit more. I know they have the potential, but being more courteous goes a very long way compared to being bland in attitude, obviously.

    My favorite spot for Vietnamese coffee, and they have some really good matcha drinks too. On the weekends it's usually packed, but I stopped by today and there wasn't even a line. Ordering is super easy through the kiosk, then you just wait for your drink. They also recently expanded the space, so there are a lot more tables available now, which makes it much easier to hang out. Definitely one of my go-to coffee spots in San Jose!

    This place upgraded their space and now there's plenty of seating with large tables to accommodate studying if needed. Ordered via the kiosk and my order was done in about a minute. Very happy with the quick service and cleanliness of the place, I will absolutely be back. Signature Coffee: delicious and was perfectly spot-on with the sweetness I selected. Cream was light and airy which was a nice touch with the coffee. 10/10

    Signature Saigon (their house blend coffee was so good---had roasty notes of hazelnut) + Coco-Bo.
    sonia c.

    Came with no expectations, because Vietnamese coffee is not particularly my go-to coffee drink, but wow ! their Signature Saigon (house blend coffee with cloud cream) caught me off guard with how good the coffee was - not bitter, not acidic, and had roasty notes of hazelnut. The subtly-salty cloud cream topping was delicious as well, and complemented the coffee. I selected 25% sweet & less ice, which was perfect. Also got the Coco-Bo (coconut milk avocado smoothie-slushie) - 0% sweet, but not sure how they adjust this ~ it was still sweet, as both the coconut part & avocado part were separately sweet, but still enjoyable & refreshing. One small caveat is that the avocado part is a paste so even though it's most likely house made, to me the texture is a little processed (as opposed to chunky blended avocado). I am dreaming about when I can return to get their Signature Saigon again & try their other coffee drinks.

    I've been craving some Vietnamese coffee and I've been wanting to try this spot for a while so here I am. I ordered their Eggspresso Hanoi. It was nice and creamy and the slight salt like taste balanced out their coffee well. I also liked the foam and I'm not even a foam person lol. Ordering here is pretty easy. They have an iPad you can order from, or you can just order from them up front. This spot looks like a great place to study. They have e a lot of tables available. The parking lot is a decent size. It can probably get lowkey busy depending on what time you come. Definitely will be back to try more drinks. Try it out if you like. :)

    This is my second time getting Lacaphe. First time was in-store and it was solid, good flavor, full portions. With how much a drink costs, I would think that I'm getting a full cup. DoorDashed an order for my coworkers and I. Their drinks were full, but mine wasn't. Safety tape was still on. I got the Coconut. Flavor is good, but the portion is not. Suppose to also come with grass jelly. I thought, maybe they forgot the jelly. Nope. I dug around for it and they didn't forget, it was just an extremely small amount. Less ice meant remove ice and leave cup empty I guess. How much does another 4oz of coffee and milk cost? Cents. Alternative would've been to fill the space with more grass jelly. Also cheap to do. What. A. Disappointment. If you're thinking about trying this place out, purchase in-store for when they're being stingy, you can get it fixed.

    It's been a while since we have been here so it was good to come back and try it. We noticed since the last time we came, they opened the seating area. To me, the seating area is nice and cozy with its dark walnut wood and green furniture. The soft lighting with the bulbs was much appreciated as well. The place was quite clean and you could really tell because the rest of the furniture is white/off white. Additionally, as soon as you come in, there's a nice smell of freshly brewed tea. I think this might be an okay place to get some studying/work done with multiple outlets if can get past what follows. My wife thought the decor was a bit too sterile. The music inside was also quite loud. No access to a bathroom as it says employees only. As for the service, non-existent other than making your drink and calling it out. You order on the iPad and there is no greeting or interaction. Some may like that, some won't. I was disappointed to see our drinks come in these plastic lined paper cups as it's very satisfying to see the layers of the coffee or tea and foam. We also both asked for less ice but I think that's just ignored. I understand that it means "less" volume of drink but I'm fine with a more empty cup rather than more ice. Overall, I think that's Lacaphe's drinks are fine but not top tier. The coffee is espresso shots but I think was a bit sour/ under extracted for me. The cream is good but not as thick as I think it could be. Overall, 4* for the decent Vietnamese coffee and the moderately cozy, but very clean place.

    Lacàphê was a really good experience. My friends and I ordered around seven drinks, and most of them were actually very good. The tea flavor was fragrant and clear, and the coffee was honestly better than many other places I've tried. I also thought their foam was pretty good. The shop does have seating, but when we went it was overcrowded, so there weren't any seats available. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the drinks came out faster than expected compared to how long the line looked. Overall, it's definitely worth trying.

    Vietnamese coffee is bomb! Rich, strong, and exactly what I needed. I did have a small mix-up with my order (I asked for hot coffee but got iced), but the customer service was great--she fixed it right away with no hesitation and made it super easy. The ambiance is really nice too--I love the cream and white color combo. It feels clean, modern, and inviting. There's plenty of seating, and it was pretty busy when I went, which is always a good sign. They also offer both in-person ordering and a stand-alone ordering screen, which makes things super convenient. Definitely appreciate how quickly they made it right. I'll be back!

    Signature Saigon: kind of roasted chocolatey flavor even though I don't think it has chocolate or anything. I enjoy 8/10 Matcha Latte: Tastes premium, but nothing special. 8/10 Banana matcha: not a lot of banana but still good 7.5/10

    LOTUS
    Quynh T.

    I got the Lotus with Oolong Boba and 75% sweetness. It was so creamy and unique! The drink tasted nutty and had a slight roasted flavor. It was my first time trying Oolong Boba. You can definitely taste the Oolong flavor. The boba was soft, sweet, and chewy. The interior had traditional Vietnamese decor but was still modern. There was lots of seating. The atmosphere felt cozy. You can order at the kiosk or with the cashier. The staff were so friendly and gave me some samples to try!

    Love walking in here to viet music. Music to my ears and their signature is semi sweet crisp and not too strong. Perfect as it is. Service is fast. Via kiosk and drink is made to order. I've had the Hanoi espresso too. The aroma and flavor is consistent. Reminds me of waking up to the smell of Folgers but this ain't your parents coffee back in the 80's. Ha ha ha Will be back to try something new. The name of this store is so catchy, every time I sound out Lacaphe, it sounds sexy with a modern twist.

    Ask the Community - Lacàphê

    How do you use the reward system to claim a free drink?

    There's a tablet when you order to sign up via square. Each drink is one point and free item after 10

    Are all egg and cloud creams made with whole milk? Can they be made nondairy?

    I think they are all premade so I don't think it's possible

    Do they serve any bags of coffee as well here?

    Nope. Only prepared beverages

    Does Lacaphe offer non-caffeinated options?

    The menu has a small triangle for non caffeinated options (theres one item). You may be able to ask if they can do non caffeinated substitutes but I think everything is premade so might not be available

It was a Wednesday and Devin and I were looking to make it a productive work day. We stopped by later in the afternoon. There is ample seating but most of the booths were occupied when we arrived so we sat at a table. Club music was being played loudly so working here would not be ideal if you have to present in meetings. The tropical paradise fruit tea would've been better with a topping or two, but in an attempt to cut down on calories consumed I've began getting drinks without toppings. Unfortunately fruit tea without toppings is just not the same, but this was totally my choice and on me. The WiFi worked well. There are some outlets under the booths but none at the tables. I've been to other Rose Tea Lounge locations and I'd say that this one is definitely more club-like than others. Not the ideal place to work remotely by any means, but that's not to say that the drinks are bad or ambiance is poor. If you're looking to chat and catch up with friends, this spot would be a good choice.

But besides that, their popcorn chicken & potstickers are delicious too! (They should definitely add the potstickers as an option on DoorDash as well! ) The drinks are very yummy too! You're able to adjust your sweetness level (30%, 60% and 100%), along with adjusting your ice levels (regular, less or none - with no additional charge). Their toppings are soft & easy to chew, really love their grass jelly topping here~ For my DoorDash experience, I have ordered drinks from here before, and as mentioned earlier, there was no option for their BBQ Tater Tots, which would have been nice to have. However, I would love to thank the staff there because I selected their Jalapeño Cheese Curly Fries before writing in the notes about wanting the Tots instead, along with paying additional bacon (just in case of the price difference), and they were very generous enough to call me immediately to confirm my choices.

The honey boba adds just the right amount of sweetness and texture, making it my favorite combination. One of the best things about this shop is how fast the service is.
