    Pandan Coffee
    Vincent Z.

    Always come by binge when I'm around berkeley! Easy to order kiosks and there's always flavors every season. There's always students studying while waiting for the drinks. The earl gray matcha was amazing, it mixed well without overpowering each other.

    Looks so flakey like some in SF

    I must admit the World Cup has me binge drinking recently. Especially the motherland Spain is in the finals. I thought I was only going to binge drink in SF . I guess going to the East Bay and going to Berkeley I still have the urge to binge drink. There are so many places to get a drink in Berkeley like at Jupiters. There is one place where binge drinking is encouraged in Berkeley and it's called Binge Coffee House. On a Summer tour of Berkeley I landed at the Binge Coffee House. I just went to Binge Coffee house location on Valencia ( not in Spain) in SF. I guess I wanted to binge drink again. Don Juan de la Matcha had to get some matcha. This time I got the purple yam Ube matcha which was not too sweet and tasty. It was smooth and very consistent to the matcha drinks at the San Francisco location. This time I had to try the banh mi. I was looking for the head cheese and was thinking about the lemongrass but got the combination with the extra pate. It was delicious but the bread was a bit flakey like some I saw on my social media feed. Overall a good spot to binge drink. Go on a Berkeley stroll in another words an "exploration "of the Binge Coffee House East Bay "location" good for matcha for Don Juan de la matcha for any "occasion"and get an Banh Mi I recommend extra pate on their "Combination" This is a place where you can go on a drinking "binge"across the "Bay Bridge" and you don't have to be "cringe "or go off the "hinge"

    Ube Matcha Latte (Less Sweet - 75% - $7.50)

    Binge Coffee House is a Vietnamese coffee shop and the coffee house originally started as Boba Binge in Oakland. The owner later decided to expand and open a coffee shop that uses the traditional Vietnamese slow-drip method (phin drip). Currently there are two Binge Coffee House locations near UC Berkeley (within 0.5 miles of each other) and a new location in San Francisco. This location on Bancroft Way is apparently the flagship location for the coffee house. [Parking]: There is a public parking lot right next to the shop ($2 per hour) and street metered parking a block away on Shattuck Ave (free metered parking on Sundays). [Ordering]: No line when our party arrived at 9 AM on Sunday. Our party placed an order using one of the two kiosks. Our waffle order was ready in 10 minutes, but our party didn't hear my name called so I had to follow up with one of the cashiers 5 additional minutes later. [Atmosphere]: The coffee house has a bar table and six indoor tables. There are no outdoor tables. [Menu]: While this is technically a Vietnamese coffee house, the recommended drinks per the online ordering system are Strawberry Matcha Latte, Banana Matcha Latte, Matcha Latte, Ube Matcha Latte, and Egg Coffee. The shop also sells snacks such as popcorn chicken and pandan waffles as well as light lunch items like Vietnamese sandwiches. *** Ube Matcha Latte (Less Sweet - 75% - $7.50): Cute cup design and the matcha tasted fairly concentrated. The ube cream was solid. Vietnamese Pandan Waffle ($6.50): I thought it was alright - nothing to write home about. *** The matcha drink was not as good as some of the best matcha drinks in Koreatown in Los Angeles, but the drink tasted good enough for local UC Berkeley students who are looking for a decent matcha drink without having to drive out of Berkeley.

    They have so many great drinks on the menu, and all of their crème tops looked amazing. Out of the four drinks | tried, the Melon Matcha was my favorite (reminds me so much of Academic). The Pandan Coffee was sweet, while the Strawberry Shortcake Hojicha had a bold hojicha flavor, with the cutest little graham cracker topping. The café is just as pretty as the drinks, with pops of green everywhere that make the space feel fresh and vibrant. I just wish it wasn't so far away : (

    Melon Melon Matcha and Cookie Butter Matcha

    Binge Coffee House offers Vietnamese food, cafe drinks, and matcha drinks. Their drinks also come with a unique flavors! I ordered their cookie butter matcha and the melon melon matcha. who knew melon and matcha would be such a great combo? Apparently, Binge did. It was a pleasant surprise, and I loved it! Their cookie butter matcha was also delicious! One thing's for sure, Binge knows great flavor combos, and I will be back to try more.

    We stopped here for coffee while driving to Napa. They have a lot of variety on the menu in terms of drinks. The inside of the coffee shop is pretty small, but there were a few people inside studying when I came in early on a Saturday morning. Though you order on a screen, one of the staff greeted me right away when I came in and was very polite. I ordered on the screen and didn't wait very long to get my drinks. I'd gotten a double matcha here and it was perfect, on par with some of the top matcha places in LA. Definitely recommend trying if you're a matcha lover.

    Popular Vietnamese and matcha spot in Berkeley! I can see why it's so popular, as they have super strong coffee as well as good quality matcha. The price is also decent compared to other cafes around and for the size. They have a bunch of fun flavored matcha's, my favorite matcha is their earl gray. They do charge extra for oat milk. They do online ordering through snackpass, which makes it super quick to pick up. They definitely do get busy so grabbing a table might be tricky! The workers are always friendly and I keep coming back!

    Banana Coffee
    Laurie H.

    In my never-ending quest for black sesame coffee, I was nearby and googled for one. Binge came up as having black sesame coffee and many others that I would try. Good thing, because when I got there, they were sold out of black sesame, but they had the banana coffee. I am so glad I got it. It was delicious - rich and flavorful, and it held up through the entire cup. Also, they use pebble ice, which makes a huge difference. With pebble ice, as your drink melts down, the flavors still are there because you can crunch down on the pebble ice with your teeth. Think about regular ice and how you're trying to get those last flavors out of a cup, but can't because the ice is in the way. Yes, I've thought about this way too much. I will 100% be back and try many other flavors, including the black sesame.

    Binge Coffee is without a doubt my favorite place to get matcha in Berkeley. I've been coming here since they opened, and it's incredible how consistently good their drinks are. I usually order through Snackpass on my phone and pick it up, but there are kiosks in the store where you can order as well. My favorite limited seasonal drinks: Cal Day Matcha (chocolate foam), Cocoa Coffee, Tiramisu Matcha. My favorite regular menu drinks: Ube Matcha, Banana Matcha, Pistachio Matcha, Kyoto Fog, Egg Coffee. Their matcha is always beautifully green and balanced, and the foam on top is delicious no matter what flavor you get. I highly recommend their popcorn chicken and pandan waffle as well. Whether you need a matcha fix, a caffeine boost, or are craving something sweet or savory, they have something for you. Side note: I've been waiting for their "Corn Cloud" drink to return. I've never had corn milk in the US, and I always miss out when they have it on the menu lol.

    3.5 stars - Another spot I bookmarked because I saw an IG reel that they enjoyed the mango sticky rice matcha, so I decided to stop by just for that. Parking was very tricky as it's only metered but glad I was able to snag a spot just a block away. The business itself wasn't that big and there were a few customers inside when I arrived on a Friday afternoon. I went straight to the kiosk and ordered the drink. It took about 5 minutes before I received a text that it was ready. The drink didn't blow my mind as I thought it would. I did taste the rice but not much of the mango. The matcha was average even after mixing everything together. I don't drink coffee so not sure if their coffee drinks would've tasted better or different.

    Got three different marchas today white peach Matcha, banana Matcha, strawberry Matcha And my fav was banana Matcha. The perfect blend of sweetness and Matcha. Easy to order and they have your drinks ready fast. It is full inside to find seating but I 10/10 recommend and I will be coming back

    Egg Coffee
    Jenny H.

    I got the egg coffee less sweet but it was still pretty sweet. The egg cream was standard. There was this chocolate powder on top of the egg cream so once you mix everything together it kind of tasted like a chocolate or mocha flavor. I wish the coffee was stronger in taste. I saw lots of folks with the matcha so I def want to try that if I am back. You can order on the kiosk so it was pretty easy. There was no staff taking orders so it is all through the kiosks. Plenty of space to do work or study. Parking was rough lol

    While looking for unique coffee options I stumbled upon Binge Coffee. My eyes immediately gravitated towards the Black Sesame Coffee. Everything is done through an ordering tablet, so it can be quick. 1st protocol is to stir it so you get a taste of the coffee & Black Sesame. I love it when a coffee isn't watered down bc there's an added component to it, in this case(Black Sesame). I really want that deep, rich coffee aroma to give me that caffeine I need to keep me alert. I would definitely return for other options.

    Likely the best Vietnamese restaurant in this area…read more Broth is very well flavored and carries every dish. Given the seal of approval by my Viet parents. Pho comes out quickly, and different dishes have different cuts of meat (I chose 12 with the brisket and round steak). You also get vegetables with your order (bean sprout, basil (eating it definitely changes the flavor of the food), and jalapeño). Would recommend the pho here. Servers were nice and took our orders quickly as well, and interior of restaurant is clean and decorated with plants. There's even a little goldfish pond.

    Went here based on Google reviews since I was in the area and craving Vietnamese food. I believe…read morethe owners may be Vietnamese-Chinese, as the menu includes both languages. The pho was a bit off in terms of the broth-to-noodle ratio. I usually like to taste the broth first before getting a bite of everything, but as soon as I dipped my spoon in, I could already tell how many noodles were packed into the bowl. Once the noodles loosened up, there wasn't much soup left. The broth itself was darker, but not in the rich, deeply flavorful way. It tasted more like it had been seasoned heavily at the end with too much bouillon, fish sauce, or something similar, making it too salty without much aroma. The brisket was good, and I did enjoy the traditional toppings like tripe and tendon, but I probably wouldn't come back for the pho. The rice plate with lemongrass pork and shrimp was decent. I just wish there had been more scallion oil, and the salad didn't add much to the plate. Fresh tomatoes, cucumbers, and carrots would have gone a long way.

    A huge shout-out to Tigon for going the extra mile to provide vegan catering for the funeral…read morereception of my father. I had initially tried to cater from a vegan establishment. However, due to scheduling and resources, I approached Tigon, the nearest vegan friendly restaurant to Sunset Mortuary, to select a fully vegan menu. The food was delivered on time and packaged well. Everything was fresh, smelled and tasted delicious. As usual, the guests only realized there were no animal products because the host is vegan. Thank you Tigon for being extra accommodating and making the lunch service effortless for our family.

    Background: Parents were born in Vietnam. Wife is Vietnamese and I've been to Vietnam more than…read morehalf a dozen times. I eat Viet food almost every day. Highlights: The viet coffee was strong, thick, sweet, and creamy, with what could be chicory flavor. Not always in traditional ca phe sua da but it was good and worthy of getting again. You'll get a good amount of caffeine with this. The atmosphere is pretty nice. Aesthetics is on the nicer side compared to even most modern Vietnamese restaurants. Letdowns: The bun bo hue lacked flavor. It tasted watered down and over-salted to compensate. It lacked much of the complexity a traditional bun bo hue has with the herb and spices. I'm used to a more brown like broth. This was a much more orange type of broth. My mother in law agrees that the flavor just ain't there. The special vermicelli that includes chicken, beef, shrimp and egg rolls was also a miss. The chicken was ok. Imagine a Panda Express teriyaki chicken but a bit drier and without a strong teriyaki taste. The beef was soft and not chewy which is a good thing, but the flavor was lacking. Needs more herbs. I would've particularly liked some lemongrass flavor with it. The egg rolls are smaller and has pork which is what you would expect but you didn't really taste the meat. It wasn't as crispy, either. I prefer a deeper crunch but that is a matter of preference. Some might dig the more delicate crispiness, but those at the table agree the flavor was lacking. The sauce was decent. Not overly sweet, some vinegar for balance, it was alright. The fried chicken with house sauce is fish sauce based, which I'm a fan of fish sauce flavor in general. But when it came out, the pungent smell was apparent and overwhelming. Not the one to prejudge before taking a bite, I gave it a bite and it was super dry. Like it's been sitting in the oven staying warm too long waiting for the sauce to be put on it dry. I've had chicken wings from the buffet that was better than this. And I hate buffets. Too dry, too salty, couldn't finish it. Normally, when food comes out too strong, we can pack it home and fix it, but this wasn't worth packing. You can fix flavor but you can't fix the dryness. There may be many reasons why the food didn't turn out well, but for all the misses and the few hits, I would not give it another chance.

Of course, good intentions got me through the door, but the pho is what keeps bringing me back. I ordered my usual pho with tendon and brisket, and the broth was incredible -- deep, aromatic, and full of flavor without being overly heavy. The noodles were also perfectly cooked.
