Yum yum yum! I got the Ha Noi Mist and pandan waffle. The waffle was great - the coconut pieces…read moreinside and coconut sauce were such a nice touch. For me the che was the star though. Each ingredient tasted fresh and added a different texture. I would definitely get the Ha Noi Mist again. I ordered online and I was grateful to see the pricing was the same. Pick up was super easy. I opted for ice on the side because I wasn't having my che until later, but unfortunately the ice froze into one big chunk in my freezer so I might just have them put the ice in the drink next time. I think price might be the only sticking point. The che is about 50% more expensive than Bambu or other Vietnamese dessert spots. I can absolutely see why their products are more expensive and totally think the quality of their dessert drinks surpass Bambu or similar dessert cafes. At the same time I have to acknowledge that I can order a che ba mau at another dessert spot and have my craving satisfied for less money. For me, this makes Co Ba a special treat that I wouldn't be able to have all the time.

This is great spot to study or work--there is a ton of seating, WiFi access, and a decent number of…read moreoutlets to plug into. The shop is clean and stylish, and the drinks come in reusable glasses and mugs, rather than defaulting to plastic cups. There is not a dedicated parking lot (it is stationed beside an apartment complex), but there is some street parking available in easy walking distance. The servers are friendly and quick, and there is a wide but not overwhelming variety of drink (mostly coffee/espresso and some matcha) and food (cake slices, waffles, and dessert toasts) options available. You can also preorder whole cakes from them. The coffee is decent, but I find that $7 is a little steep for a latte that doesn't really stand out. I can sort of justify it by thinking that I'm also paying for the lovely space to work as well. The desserts are also a bit pricy, at around $10 per piece (and the pieces aren't huge). Overall, I had a pleasant experience here and would absolutely recommend it if you're looking for a place to sit down for a while to read, study, or relax, despite the somewhat pricy menu.

Unfortunately, Yelp steered me wrong this time…read more We were looking for a quick, decent espresso drink after my brother got married at the nearby county clerk's office. This spot seemed highly rated and close. Unfortunately, the quality is more 2.5 than 4.5. Latte barely tasted of coffee and milk tasted off. Frappe melted into watered down coffee almost immediately. Our daughter got a "matcha boba" - it wasn't advertised as popping boba, but the boba were weird thin-skinned sacks of sugar water, no chew, like sugary salmon eggs, rather unpleasant. The coffee was just drinkable and below-Starbucks in quality. Chai Latte is just a latte with chai flavored Italian syrup. I had hoped a place in the South Bay with chai in its name would have solid house made chai for chai latte but alas, no. One hardworking barista holding down the space -- doing her best to juggle the cafe and food orders but it seems the base ingredients are mediocre so there's not much skill can do to cover that. The Indian pastries sounded good, but we didn't try them. Based on the meh quality of drinks, we won't be back.

The decor is so beautiful that you feel like you're transforming into a lady or lord. As stunning as the decor is, the drinks are average. The banana matcha was flavorful; I loved the hint of banana. I also appreciated that the matcha didn't have clumps of powder like some boba spots. My mom had the peach lychee, and it was good, but kinda bland--I added less sugar since it might be too sweet. Overall, it's a nice spot for high tea and some boba. However, there are a few things they could improve. When I ordered at the kiosk and someone else ordered through the cashier, we received the same number. I had to go up and make sure they got it right. Parking is terrible; it's not the shop's fault, but the plaza is very busy.

The drinks are on the sweeter side, so I wish I ordered 30%, which is one level lower than what I usually get at boba stores.

Coffee and Chai is a great spot for studying as there are lots of tables and it's quiet. Our barista today also turned out to be the owner of the cafe. Such a sweet, accommodating man!! We got a masala chai, a cardamom chai, and a matcha latte- all hot cos it's so chilly in San Jose around this time of year. I preferred the masala chai, but both chai lattes were yummy! Spiced so deliciously and definitely helped warm us up. My grandpa got the matcha and was pleased with the taste as it was unsweetened but not bitter at all. Regardless of whether you need a quick pick-me-up, a local study/work spot, or even someplace to catch up, this lovely cafe should be the next place you try out!

There was some issues with our reservation but the lady who helped us was super nice and was able to resolve the issue. The cat lounge pass comes with a complimentary drink! We got checked in and ordered our drinks before heading to the back where the cats were. We were given shoe covers and an overview of what to expect and what to do/don't with the cats. And before we go in, hand sanitize! I love how the group is limited so it isn't too crowded and the cats do not get overwhelmed. You get a good amount of time with all the cats. All the cats were very friendly and super cute! I had a great time! Drinks: - yakgwa einspanner: the korean cookie cream top was not too sweet and perfect combo with the cold brew. It came with a small yakgwa (korean honey cookie and it was yummy) 8/10 - green grape ade: a little sweet for me, tasted a bit artificial but it is as expected from a sparkling grape soda 6/10 Overall, had a great experience! If you love cats and Korean cafe drinks, this is the spot for you! Would definitely come back! Staff were friendly especially the lady who helped us out!

It's super cozy but still feels modern, definitely somewhere you can hang out for a while. I do want to note, on some tables, you cannot have a lap top all day on the weekends and after 4PM on weekdays (probably prevents people from staying for hours on end on busier days). I got the iced Qamaria latte (extra sweet) and my cousin got an iced caramel macchiato, and both were really good! Mine was smooth and very fragrant (cardamom notes mostly), which I appreciated, and the macchiato had a nice balance too. Both 5/5 We also tried the rose milk cake. It had a really light rose flavor and wasn't overly sweet, which made it easy to finish (we almost wanted another one). They had other flavors too like Pistachio, Saffron, Biscoff, etc. and some other pastries. Overall everything just hits, drinks, desserts, atmosphere. Would definitely come back again!
