    Glad to find a sugarcane spot in Hayward. No need to drive to SJ or Oakland to grab some. Sugarmama is located near City Hall in downtown Hayward. The menu is still pretty short for now, but they mentioned they're working on expanding it. I ordered their grilled pork banh mi and it was really good. Packed with a generous amount of meat, the bread had that perfect texture (crunchy on the outside but soft and airy on the inside). Best part, it didn't hurt my upper gums (iykyk). For drinks, I got the baby jug of their OG sugarcane drink and also tried the strawberry sugarcane. Both were refreshing and super satisfying. Definitely planning to come back to try more of their drink flavors and other food items once the menu grows!

    The shop is very small, and it is takeout only. I stopped by to try the sugar cane drinks. The people behind the counter were all really friendly. I got a mango drink and my friend got strawberry I think. We both thought the drinks were sweet, of course, and they were very refreshing.

    The most amazing service amazing people amazing food. The banh mi is just spectacular too much meat. No, just enough for my chungus appetite The vibes inside the store is nice and refreshing just like their sugarcane.

    It's a great spot in Hayward, a little hidden, but once you find it, you will be grateful you did. I recommend the passion fruit sugarcane juice, the calamansi sugarcane juice and the regular one, they all taste so good!! The service is also great.

    Still in soft opening but decided to stop by as it's near my hairdresser's spot. Small storefront and set up for take out only with a few plastic stools to sit on if you choose. Ordered at the counter and decided on a BBQ Pork Bahn mi and the mango sugarcane drink. Small bites not yet available during soft opening until they get set up a bit more. Vietnamese sandwich with nicely seasoned pork with hints of lemongrass, very thin spread of pate, spiciness from the jalapeno, crunch from the cucumber and marinated, julienne, pickled carrots and daikon (Đồ Chua) but no cilantro available. Personally, I could take it or leave it but it definitely changes the flavor of the sandwich without it. Sugarcane drink was refreshing but not my thing. Has a floral, almost grassy with honey taste to me...just a preference and will stick with their delicious sandwich and small bites in the future. Definitely give it a try to experience freshly pressed sugarcane! Service straightforward and quick. Price for sandwich ($8) and drink ($7). Reasonably priced for a Vietnamese sandwich these days. Plenty of street parking. Soft opening hours: Friday-Sunday (10am-3pm)

    Sugarmana Sugarcane opened recently where Marley's Treats was. Limited weekend hours presently. Single table inside. Outside seating on concrete barriers available. Street parking or parking lot in back. Sugarcane imported from Vietnam, same de juiced on site with machine. Soft vocal music in background. Short line. Served quickly, with courtesy. credit card only. Eats ready in 5ish minutes. Offerings (Vietnamese): Banh mi, mon nham( small Bites), Nuoc Mia( sugarcane juice, juices) Bites: Combo Banh Mi (8) -8" baquette overloaded with proteins: pork ham, head cheese ham. Crust was chewy not crunchy. Banh mi felt dry-pate & mayo not juicy enough. Veggies: jalepenos, cilantro, picked daikon & carrots shreds, cucumbers were fresh, not overwhelming. 4.5 stars Worthy! Quantity: more than others, great value! Quality: Ok. Needs tweaking. A diverse patronage, not just Asian Americans.

    Nice little place downtown that offers vietnamese options! It's nice that they have different flavors of sugarcane and the lychee one I got had good flavor of both lychee and sugarcane. I was disappointed that my drink had all this foam on top so I didn't feel like I got a full drink especially when I noticed others did not have foam. The banh mi itself was lacking flavor overall. I felt there was way too many pickled carrots tipping the ratio too much in that flavor. The carrots also were in small pieces so that made it harder to eat since they were falling. I prefer longer thin pieces. Glad the sandwiches come with pate, though! The menu was different on the one near the register vs the wall. They made some changes but wish they made it more clear. They also didn't offer the appetizer bites that day.

    4 combination banh mi & sugarcane juice with calamansi
    Sandy Q.

    It's been a while since we had banh mi so I thought I'll send my husband here to pick up lunch. We bought 4 combination banh mi and sugarcane juice with calamansi. When I took a bite into the banh mi, i thought the flavor was off. The sandwich itself lacked flavor but I couldn't figure out what the problem was, until i opened up the sandwich to take a look. Well, there was barely any mayo, the pate was the size of a teaspoon, the ham was missing (saw steamed pork roll instead), the "pickled" carrots and daikon did not have any tartness or flavor to it, and all of our sandwiches had more carrots with a few strands of daikon. The only thing I enjoyed was the sugarcane juice. It was slightly sweet with a hint of tartness.

    Delish n refreshing!
    Mercy H.

    I absolutely love having fresh sugar cane juice just around the corner from home. It's such a refreshing treat! What makes this spot even more exciting is the variety of bánh mì they offer--so many unique kinds that I haven't had the chance to try yet. I'm really looking forward to coming back soon, not only to explore their diverse bánh mì selection but also to sample their creative sugar cane juice blends. It's the perfect little local gem that brightens my day every time! Give em a try! Support local biz...

    Stumbled upon this since it came up on my FYP during soft opening weekend. Great to see more options like Sugarmama pop up in Hayward! Sugarmama took over the spot that Marley's (a Filipino bakery) previously was at. It's still in soft opening phase, so be patient as they work through things, such as food since that is a new part of their business. We got the calamansi cane, Vietnamese coffee, and two banh mi (bbq pork and combo pork). The drinks were good, although I wish the cup size was a little bigger. The calamansi really came through and the sugarcane balanced well with it. My husband thought it was just ok and would've preferred having the sugarcane on its own. I was happy that the coffee was strong and not overly sweet. The banh mi were on the dry side - the bun was a little hard for my taste, and the bbq pork was a bit dry. It would have been nice if the meat was warm but everything was room temp. There could have been more veggies to balance out the ingredients, but I think it was a reasonable amount for the price. I'm not sure I would get it the banh mi again, but the drinks are definitely the star of this place. Overall the prices are very reasonable as everything is under $10. I would try their egg rolls next time but they weren't selling them today. You can see the cold pressing the sugarcane fresh at the front of the store.

    I love this place, the drinks are really good + the service is amazing , I highly recommend to go because even if it's sugarcane juice it's not that's sweet and enjoyable.

    Stacy C.

    They're currently open Friday to Sunday until their grand opening on February 19. They have lots of sugarcane drink options and prices are very reasonable. The juice tastes fresh and natural, and you can see them press the sugarcane in front of you. Parking in front is limited since it's a one way street, but there's plenty of parking in the back near Lucky's. Seating is minimal right now with just a few stools, so hopefully they add more seating later. You can see the leftover sugarcane dropping behind the machine near the entrance with a trash bin, which can look a little untidy, but hopefully they improve the setup later. Overall, great drinks and worth a visit. I'll definitely come back. :)

    OMG a sugarcane spot in Hayward?! This is so, so exciting since sugarcane shops are hard to come by . I only know of ones in San Jose and South SF. I ordered a mini jug of calamansi cane and it did not disappoint - super refreshing and the perfect amount of sweetness! They offer several other places at well but calamansi is by far my favorite wherever I go. I also ordered a combination banh mi (cold cuts) which was just okay. I think the whole thing overall could have been more flavorful and the bread could have had better texture, but I also have a very high standard for banh mi since we always get them in east side SJ. I would be willing to give the sandwiches another try once they are established, but I will definitely be back for the sugarcane soon!

If you want to pay with cash, you have to wait a very long time. Today, my friend and I were excited to go to T's and order something they had posted on Instagram. I wanted to pay with cash, so I waited patiently because there were a lot of people waiting. While I was waiting, I kindly asked one of the employees if I could pay with cash. She told me, "No, there is a machine right there." I replied, "But I want to pay with cash." She looked at me, walked away, and proceeded to help other customers who were also paying with cash and picking up orders. I then asked another employee, and she helped me right away, even though she was multitasking. I finished placing my order on the tablet, but neither employee helped me complete the checkout process. I waited again, and although they saw my friend and me standing there, no one offered assistance. I asked one of the employees for the name of the older blonde haired employee, and she told me it was Angie. T's, please consider having a dedicated cashier at the front instead of having employees in the back juggle several different jobs. The service used to be so good. There was usually a manager or another employee helping customers at the front. Now, it seems like everyone is stretched too thin. What is going on? T's was never like this.
