I think Phin changed their matcha brand because the color looks more vibrant now. The drink doesn't taste bitter anymore. I'm not talking about the coffee bitterness, but that lingering aftertaste the matcha used to have is gone. I'd recommend trying it and seeing for yourself. The layers alone pull you in, bright green matcha sitting under a creamy, bold coffee top. Once mixed, it's smooth, slightly earthy, and balanced with just the right sweetness. read more

Finally!! I don't have travel far for Vietnamese coffee in west San Jose!! This is a beautiful store with many places to sit and ample parking. My go-to order is their Pandan coffee or ube coconut, and it's not too sweet. Service was polite and friendly. My drink took about 5ish minutes from after I placed my order. read more

This is a great place to chat with a friend or study. There's plenty of seating inside, though it can fill up. They also have outlets in the walls so you can charge while studying or working. The ambiance is excellent. I got the egg coffee and ube coffee. I will say the ube coffee didnt have the most authentic and traditional vietnamese coffee taste. I'm not sure if that's what they're going for since their slogan is "tradition meets modern taste" but I was still surprised. However, the egg coffee for some reason was spot on. The drinks were a 3.5/5. As a normal coffee drink, it is good. The ube was slightly grainy but to me that indicates a more better flavor, and it was good. The egg cream was also good, I was hoping it to be sweeter and more creamy and less thick, but not a big deal. I have been to the fremont location and I preferred their coffee taste over this one. They did take a little bit long but I think if you're here to sit down and stay, that's not a dealbreaker. It may have just been busy when I came on a saturday, but I waited about 20+ mins. read more

I was pleasantly surprised by the flavor profile of Phin's egg coffee. The coffee is strong (as you'd expect from Vietnamese coffee), and the creamy egg topping blends beautifully with it. The café itself is super cozy--I stopped by around midday on a Thursday, and it was packed! Service was a bit slow, but honestly, it wasn't a big deal. If you're in a rush and need a quick caffeine fix, this might not be the best spot. But if you're in the mood for a relaxed, cozy afternoon, it's a great place to hang out or get some work done. read more

Since I'm a huge fan of the Cupertino location, I naturally had to check out this new Campbell spot, and it did not disappoint! The interior is absolutely stunning, with plenty of tables that make it a perfect environment for both getting work done or just chatting with friends. I got the egg matcha with less sugar and it tastes balanced; you can really taste the quality of the matcha and the richness of the egg cream. However, my only gripe is that half the drink is ice, which felt a bit excessive. It's a solid four-star experience, and I'll definitely be back, though I'll be asking for light ice next time! read more

I found my new coffee spot in S.Bascom strip. Parking lot is decent except during lunch hour. The menu offers a variety of drinks that can't be found in the area. The drinks are not gimmicky and they taste great. The price is also worth it. I got the salted coffee and tropical zest drinks as is. There are plenty of tables or counter area to stay and hang. The register and drink up counter area is long, and no bottlenecks occur. The salted coffee is strong and creamy. A great morning coffee to have and the tropical zest doesn't taste like juice. It's refreshing to have in the afternoon. read more

I have been to other Phin Cafes but not this location yet. Interior is very aesthetic of brown earthy accents. It is very spacious and big, plenty indoor seating, perfect for studying/working/group hangouts. I usually only try their Viet coffees since it's what they specialize best in. I was recently recommended to try their matchas from another friend who said they got better, so I got curious and decided to try them out. Overall, their matchas are on the sweet side but subtle. It could be stronger. Drinks: - Matcha Egg Cream: wish the cream was thicker and sweeter - Banana Matcha: actually pretty good, unexpectedly. Banana tastes pretty good and real. I was confused at first because I didn't know the banana would be mixed in already instead of on top. - Jasmine Milk Tea: don't recommend it. Thin tea style (using less milk/creamer), the flower is definitely floral and fragrant but it's too much to the point where it's like perfume. Has the oversteeped lingering aftertaste and borderline watered down. I couldn't enjoy it or finish it. read more

Great place to work out of or have meetings--lots of people camped out on laptops. A bit pricey for what you get. Banana matcha was fine. Both flavors were subtle and subdued, I expected a bit more oomph. Maybe I ordered the wrong thing. Service was okay, not very friendly. read more

I was really excited to try Phin Cafe! The flight is a good concept and also really aesthetic! I tried the Classic Flight, but none of the flavors really wowed me. It was cute that the flight came with a tiny banh pia! That was yummy. My boyfriend liked the salted coffee. We also got a large egg coffee, which was yummy. I was intrigued by the chorizo and taro pate chaud, so I had to try those! I was worried that the chorizo was going to make the pate chaud super oily, but the puff pastry they use isn't super oily so it balanced the chorizo very well. Unfortunately, because the puff pastry is dry and taro is a dry filling, the taro pate chaud was very dry. I used the matcha and pandan cream in my flight to make the taro pate chaud less dry, and that was good. Service was a bit slow, but it was kind of busy when we came! Everyone was nice and willing to help. read more

Such a cute and modern cafe with plenty of work space. They roast their own beans so that added a pleasant coffee smell while I was there! They have a wide range of coffee to chose from. I decided to be adventurous and got their durian coffee! The creme on top was sweet and has a nice pleasant durian aroma. The coffee itself stays true to it's roots, strong and sweet. I got default sweetness and it was pretty sweet for my liking. I would definitely recommend 50% sweet if you decide to try their coffee. Overall, a solid spot and friendly staffs. I'd be happy to come back and try more of their menu! read more

Stopped in at 4 pm because I've been dying to try the banana matcha latte. I try to avoid caffeine because of the effects it has on me, but I needed this matcha. It was so worth it. Ordering was quick and easy. They really take their time crafting their drinks. The banana matcha latte was the best one I've had so far and I've had about 10. I especially loved the fresh banana chunks paired with the earthy matcha and creamy oat milk. My friend ordered a decaf egg cream coffee and it was presented nicely. There is plenty of seating inside the spacious cafe, but no pet friendly patio! read more

Amazing cafe. Ambiance is on point for those who want to bring their laptop and do some studying/work. Their presentation of Vietnamese drip coffee is worth it for the price. Looking forward to try their specialty drinks like coffee margarita and pho coffee when I want to treat myself. The WiFi password will be printed on your receipt so don't forget to request it after your purchase. read more

Pretty solid spot if you're in the mood for coffee or snacks. The space is huge too and nicely decorated with padded seats throughout. I usually stop by and grab an egg coffee, banh mi which is decent, or waffle for my kids. This location serves a flight that needs to be enjoyed here, which I'd love to try one day when I'm not on the go. Music isn't super loud so I could definitely see myself stopping in and getting some work done here. Wall chargers, if you can get a seat by the wall are available. read more

Tried both the pho Vietnamese coffee and the pandan coffee. I genuinely felt bad not giving this place 5 stars because everything else was great. The star deduction is only for the pho coffee flavor. To be fair, the worker did give me a heads-up that it's a 50/50 item, but I wanted to try it because it sounded fun and unique. Unfortunately, I wasn't a huge fan. It tasted a bit sour at first, and toward the end had a strange aftertaste. Not many times have I disliked a coffee, especially a Vietnamese coffee, so this one just wasn't for me. However, love the creativity! That said, the pandan coffee was excellent. My mom ordered it and we both really enjoyed it...smooth, flavorful, and easy to drink. I would 100% return to try their other flavors, especially their tasters, because I can already tell they'd be amazing. Service was outstanding and the ambiance inside was great. Overall, I still really loved the experience and would highly recommend this spot to others! I'd maybe just say skip the pho coffee unless you're feeling adventurous! read more

I got to Phin Cafe on a Saturday with my family. When we arrived at 12:30 pm, the place was already packed. I ordered a drink first and then found a seat. The drink took about 15 minutes to be ready for pickup. I got the banana matcha drink, which was delicious. Of course, it was much better than the drinks at Starbucks. The location is great, with street parking and a parking lot. The customer service was excellent! The ambiance is nice too. read more

I'm so excited they put a Phin Cafe where Mod Pizza used to be. Vietnamese craft coffee and snacks, yes please. We got our order to go but I could see this being a place people spend a morning at. It's cute, bright, and spacious. Staff is friendly and efficient. My wife got the egg cream coffee and was impressed with the foam and intensity of the coffee, great flavor. I got the pandan, which I typically love, and was happy with my choice. Their rendition is excellent. Waffle is tasty too! Looking forward to trying more items, just wish they had a larger size for hot coffee. Patronize this place! read more

I'm a big fan of Phin Coffee. I frequent the Fremont location often. So, when they opened the Campbell location and I heard that this is where they roast and sell their beans AND new coffee concoctions are dreamt up, I had to go. First, this location is aesthetic af. Next level cool and cozy. Lots of windows, plenty of seating, beautiful and eclectic furniture, and a huge serving counter. We tried so many drinks: Mulberry salted lemon coffee: somehow this concoction works. Doesn't sound like it would but the sweetness of the mulberry syrup balances the salted lemon and the coffee gives it depth. A well rounded drink that I could easily see as a dessert cocktail (BYO alcohol). Flight #2: samples of their iced coffee, salted coffee, matcha cloud, pandan coffee. Variations of the staple coffees they offer and a great way for coffee enthusiasts to try a few. Our fave was the matcha cloud. So smooth. It also came with a pastry, I think it was mung bean. Nice and fresh. Phin tea: a tisane of loose leaf jasmine tea, jujube, and goji berries. A light and fragrant tea to warm you up while reading a book. We also got a croffle with fruit and choco drizzle. Delicious! As always, service was impeccable. The seating is plentiful. I could easily spend a few hours here working or reading a book as the ambiance is perfect for either. The windows really allow the light to shine through the whole space. read more

I got the Egg Matcha and it was alright. I saw that the matcha is electrically whisked. The quality of the matcha is mid. The egg cream top is the best part of the drink.

I got the durian coffee here and a puff pastry. Honestly wish the durian tasted more durian-y I thought it just tasted like regular viet coffee. But loved the pastry!

Great to spend a few hours getting things done or reading a book. read more

Came here on a fairly busy Sunday at 12pm. Modern, clean ambiance with lots of seating. Fast and exceptional service from staff and the owner, Jason Nguyen. I got the peach orange with less sweet, which was the perfect sweetness in my opinion. More orange than peach flavor and u can definitely taste the floral tea undertones. My friends got the egg coffee and matchas and absolutely enjoyed it as well. Jason is very generous and offers to remake drinks to ensure his customers are satisfied! We shared some of the pork/chicken patê chaud: very crispy exterior, and great ratio of meat to flaky biscuit. Overall, a great study/meeting spot with quality handcrafted drinks. Lots of commotion, but not too busy or hectic. I will come back for sure :) read more

I already love Phin Cafe, but their new Campbell location is so nice! The space is beautiful and feels like such a great addition to the area. We tried both coffee flights and the Pho Coffee creation, which are in-store only, and everything was amazing--fun, unique, and super well done. The baristas are sweet and helpful. I'm honestly so happy to have Phin Cafe in Campbell. This town really needed something other than Peet's and Philz, and Phin absolutely delivers. Can't wait to come back! read more

Love the coffee and love the ambiance of this particular location. Their coffee offerings are unique and they even have coffee flights. If you're not into coffee, Phin also has teas, smoothies, along with both sweet and savory snacks. The girl at the register was friendly and helpful in explaining their popular drinks. Seating also seems pretty ample. I ordered their hot egg coffee and also tried a sip of the tonic coffee which was unique and refreshing. Definitely coming back soon to try their other drinks! read more

Yay Vietnamese coffee has to touched down in Campbell! This space is beautiful, with plenty of seating for hanging with friends or studying. The decor is modern & slightly industrial, and they're currently decorated for the holidays. Service was prompt and courteous. We got the egg coffee last time and ordered the pandan coffee this time. Egg is still my fave but the pandan was pretty good too. They don't currently sell beans but they are looking to in the near future. 5/5 would come back again to try more items off the menu! read more

Wow! I'm used to the Phin Cafe on Blossom Hill and this one has a different vibe. It has way more space and, at least right now, has a more chill feel with nice music and beautiful Christmas decorations. Currently there are multiple people working on their laptops and some groups of friends, so it's good for all different crowds. Location is amazing because I can drop by after my class at Bar Method, pick up something to eat or drink and be on my way! The service is friendly and efficient. I felt comfortable to ask questions and take my time looking at the menu before ordering. I ordered a hot White Matcha and it's very yummy! The cashier said that he has a sweet tooth and normally has things at full sweetness. I like my drinks to be a little less sweet and so I ordered it that way-- it is perfect for my taste buds! The takeaway cup also has its own cover for the drink hole so that's a nice plus! They also have these cute Christmas sleeves :) Will definitely be back!! read more

Tried both the Phin Flight 1 and 2. Super pretty, but honestly not too much of a difference in flavor as the base was the same across each. Definitely mix the drinks well in order to taste the flavors. My favorites were the matcha cloud and the durian (surprising because I tend to hate durian. This one has more of a sweet, generic taste that I couldn't relate to durian at all). The flights also came with an egg yolk pastry. I would say 3.5 stars Service was decent. Typical order at the counter and pick up when order number is called. Large, open space with plenty of seating. Instrumental music played in the background and there was some cute Christmas decorations up. Lots of parking read more

I really enjoy the ambiance! I've been here a couple of times once for the soft opening and we've returned once more to try the other flight. I've tried both of their coffee flights and the corn coffee (because I love corn). The corn coffee might actually be my favorite one because all of the other ones are either too acidic or I'm not a fan of the cream. I like how they have the flights so that you can try multiple drinks. The flights are only available for dine in since they have the little tray with the place cards and they're served in glass cups. Out of the two flights we've tried, I liked the Phin Flight #2 more. I tested the wifi while I was there and it was pretty fast! Though I was one of like 5 people in the store so it's possible it's not as fast if there's multiple people working from there. The wifi password is printed on the receipt. The parking lot is spacious enough since the plaza is pretty dead. Most of the spots you'd be fighting over people with are those that are trying to go to the Habit. Parking isn't quite as bad as the Philz coffee one block down, but I could see it possibly getting that bad as people find out about this place. The interior is so cute with the brick wall and leather seats. read more

Wow! What an amazing space! Really impressive as soon as you step inside. Love the aesthetic vibe. Greeted by smiles. I had a lot of questions and they were all super helpful... and patient. :) They do not have any decaf tea options. I decided on their decaf margarita coffee. Yes, Margarita Coffee! I also ordered a pandan waffle for my snack. I didn't know what to expect from the coffee so I'm happy to share that it was pretty damn good! And also good-looking. It's very different from my boring hot coffee with cream and sugar. The pandan waffle was made to order so it was warm and toasty. Not too sweet, which was nice. Definitely coming back to hang out with friends and to try more food and drink options. Good place to just chill and get some work done, too. read more

Before reading this review, just know my boyfriend and I have a very plain and simple tastebud when it comes to coffee shop drinks! We ordered the iced milk coffee and a jasmine cold brew! Vietnamese tend to be a bit too strong for me, so I didn't personally try it. My boyfriend loved it though. He asked for only a bit of condensed milk, since he likes his coffee unsweetened most of the time. The jasmine cold brew comes unsweetened which I enjoyed. It was very refreshing. Our total came out to 11.50 which I think is a bit pricey, but also understand (in this economy). Inside is very nice. It would be a great study space! There is WiFi available for customers and there are outlets. Overall, this is a very cute space! Def give this location a visit. read more

As part of the grand opening weekend they had a 20% off deal going on. We had been to Phin Coffee in our area but wanted to try this new one. We got the pho coffee and the corn matcha drinks. The pho coffee is exactly what it promised: the flavors of pho with the star anise, cinnamon, lime, and a hit of spicy. I thought it was great to try once as it really was like pho in a drink but would not get it again for $12.50. Their Phin creations are mocktail adjacent and reflect that in their price. The corn matcha drink was also a welcome back from fall. Nicely separated layers between the corn and the matcha that complimented nicely when mixed. We wish that this was a permanent menu item instead of just seasonal. As for the location itself, it's massive. The place has its own coffee roasting machine behind the counter. It also looks like a great place for people to study or relax as a third place. The decor is very cozy being wood tones with lots of plants and it's not overly loud. The layered lighting as well as many large windows also add to the ambiance. Smooth jazz playing in the background if you're into that. The staff are very friendly and casual. One suggestion for improvement is the line / queue. We came just before a small rush of people. The guests behind us people lined up in front of the register towards the door, blocking some entry. I can see if this place gets busy enough, people may not know where to stand and block the entry way. Having a more defined line area that guides patrons to move closer to the espresso machine and leading to the register may be helpful to alleviate line issues in the future. Overall, great experience and glad that Phin is branching out. read more
