The yogurt was a large portion and was very good. Coffee was a little strong and bitter, probably designed to have additives rather than being drank black. Pairing with the yogurt made it taste a lot better though. Service was friendly and the prices were reasonable. It was a bit noisy inside, just because there were a lot of customers and everyone was talking. The store is clean and bright with a neat little riser on one side. My only complaint was that there were no refills. That's unusual for black, drip coffee.

Bottom line: Purple & Pearl is a nicely decorated shop with many types of tea/milk/matcha type…read morebeverages. I enjoyed the strawberry lime tea here a lot with the minimum sweetness level. The croffle was good, I was a bit confused by the offered toppings however the whipped cream it originally has on it works well but has a very thick layer of it. I'd definitely come back for the strawberry lime tea in the future. The Deets: During a recent walk through the neighborhood, I noticed the newish Purple & Pearl and decided to pop in there. Purple & Pearl specializes in fruit tea/bubble tea/milk tea/matcha latte/Vietnamese coffee/fresh milk beverages with a few snacks in the form of croffles (waffle and croissant hybrid). Upon entering, this space is very nicely decorated with high aesthetic appeal. I looked over the menu and decided on getting the strawberry lime tea with a croffle to snack on there. I got the tea with the lowest available sweetness (sticker on it stated 25%, from the natural sweetness of the fruit it was explained to me as I did ask for no sweetness) and liked it a lot with a great taste as well as refreshing. Looking at the topping section of the menu under the snacks/croffle area, I saw custard and asked for that on my croffle. I was quickly informed, short version, that the custard was not actually available as a croffle topping so after the explanation I decided on going with the default topping which was a lot of whipped cream with powdered sugar. I did take off a majority (not all) of the whipped cream and powdered sugar and enjoyed the croffle itself as a nice snack (in the future I would ask for no powdered sugar). I would definitely visit Purple & Pearl again for a refreshing beverage, I enjoyed the strawberry lime tea choice very much.

The shop is a perfect place to get some work done, meet up with friends, or have a quick coffee meeting. The Vibes are very chill and relaxing, very easy to hear one another talking. The barista is top tier, giving great recommendations to a couple who came in after me and making sure to let them know if they hated it he'd remake them something else. The coffee itself was quite good, homemade syrups are the best! I can taste the difference and I truly appreciate when a shop showcases their homemade creations.
