    Pandan coffee
    Raymond M.

    The banh mi was flavorful, but thinner compared to traditional banh mi's. It was a light snack that will not leave you feeling full. The sandwich came with Vietnamese pork roll, pâté, pork floss, and bits of dried shrimp. It didn't include vegetables, which is different from the typical banh mi that includes pickled carrots and daikon, cucumber, and cilantro. The pandan coffee was rich, sweet, and creamy. However, I wish the coffee had been stronger to enhance its boldness.

    Salt Coffee
    Trinh V.

    I love the variety of cà phê sữa đá here! I've been here on multiple occasions and they never fail to keep me caffeinated all day. I've tried their cà phê muối (salt coffee), cà phê trứng (egg coffee), and cà phê lá dứa (pandan coffee). The cream tops and flavors here are strong but not overwhelming so my cà phê is still fragrant! Their cà phê sữa đá is small but mighty as it has a thicker consistency, diluting very well. I personally like the thicker consistency of the drinks because it has a stronger flavor too. Drinks are made quickly and I never have to wait for any longer than 5 minutes. The store itself is clean and spacious with a handful of tables and long booth. I highly recommend coming here but be sure to drink your drinks early as the caffeine here is super strong.

    I was in Lion Plaza and I noticed Cafes Quan close to Lion Market. I've been meaning to check them out. Parking is definitely better off hours in this plaza. The interior is nicely decorated and also seasonally decorated for Lunar New Year! A few tables and window stools to sit at. One unisex restroom only. Unfortunately, I was unable to try their sandwiches, but decided to get one of their drinks. Banana Matcha Einspanner (4/5). The banana foam was delicious and was a nice combination with the Matcha. Eat the cookie early unless you leave it in a break and stir it into your drink. Maybe that's the way. The drink was good but had too much ice in it and kinda pricey. I'll be back to try their banh mi and other drinks. Come support your local business.

    Cafes Quan really knows how to make their viet coffee just right. We started off our Christmas morning with a nice iced cup of craft coffee & some delicious mini banh mi! Cafes Quan really knows how to decorate for the holidays. Right when we walked in, we were greeted by a HUGE, beautiful Christmas tree! We ordered the Mini Pork Floss and the Mini Pate bani mi. The bread is toasted to perfection. It has a great crunch on the outside but is still soft and fluffy on the inside. Paired with the savory pate, each rich bite will leave you wanting more. For coffee, we got the black coffee with coconut milk, Ube coffee, egg coffee, and coconut coffee. They all were a lovely dark roast. My favorite was the coconuts coffee because they add toasted coconut chips on top. Kudos to our cashier who was really patient with us while we kept changing our order because everything sounded so good!

    I'd say it's a bit on the pricey end, but coffee in general is around $7 now. I asked what their bestseller was and order exactly that. The salted coffee was strong, the salty was concentrated in the cream top. I feel like you need to fix/let the coffee diffuse a bit otherwise it will just be strong. I enjoyed my drink! It was what I needed for a quick pick me up -- would come again to try their ube and other drinks!

    Chrysanthemum Longan Tea
    Karl G.

    Stopped by San Jose for some Vietnamese food and stumbled upon Cafes Quan, right as they were celebrating their 1-year anniversary with a special deal: $3.65 per drink for 365 days open -- love a good promo! We had already eaten breakfast at the nearby food court, but the aesthetic and vibe of this place immediately caught our attention. Ended up grabbing two drinks: - Chrysanthemum Longan Tea -- super refreshing herbal tea with floating longan fruit, chia seeds, and delicate chrysanthemum petals; light, floral, and perfect for cooling down - Salted Coffee -- stunning layered look with whipped cream on top and strong Vietnamese coffee below; rich, creamy, and bold with that signature kick The space is bright and modern with a clean black & white interior. One of the standout features is the wall art -- a series of unique sketches blending Parisian cafe vibes with Vietnamese charm: think bicycles, tea cups, berets, and towering coffee mugs. There are several two-seater tables plus bar seating along the window, ideal for catching up or solo work. Service was warm and friendly, and our drinks came out fast. Plenty of parking available in the surrounding plaza. They also serve banh mi and waffles, which I'll definitely be back for. Can't wait to return for my next Vietnamese coffee fix!

    Ordered the strawberry matcha- normal sweetness and regular ice. Omg no matcha flavor, tastes so bland, couldn't even taste the strawberry. I love the set up here, really nice. But the drinks were ehh.

    Parking is easy, space is ample, service is quick. Music is blasting but if you're into it, you're into it. We opted for the popular drinks: the egg coffee and the salted coffee. Both were good! The salted coffee was definitely the winner between the two. We'd return and would recommend if you're in the area.

    Love the Vietnamese coffee here. Great service. We have purchased the salted coffee as least 10 times here already

    Annual visit to Lion Plaza for Lunar New Year shopping and enjoying viet coffee here. It's very clean and quiet here while the chaos with the parking outside. The drink came out fast and good as usual. This is like my tranquility shop from this plaza.

    Banana Cream Matcha & Egg Coffee
    Shannon D.

    This was our first time at Cafes Quan. It was easy to find and parking was great! The shop was very bright, open and airy. There's plenty of seating available to sit and enjoy your drinks! The girl took our order. The Croc Waffles machine was broken. Bummed. So we just ordered drinks. We ordered the Banana Cream Matcha & Egg Coffee. Both drinks came in cute cups and looked amazing! They both didn't disappoint. My Egg Coffee was creamy and strong, just the way I like it! Next time we're in town, we'll be sure to go back! 10/10

    Banana matcha latte
    Denise L.

    Cute coffee shop and tried the banana cream matcha latte. It was my first time having a banana matcha, and it was pretty but didn't taste a whole lot of banana. Appreciated the biscoff cookie though I had to take it out to stir up the drink. Plenty of seating and lots of drink options. They also have banh mi for $4!

    mini Banh mi with pate and dried shrimp. $4.

    Tried Moc Delight for many times and really enjoyed it! Their milk tea was fresh, flavorful, and…read morenot overly sweet. We also ordered a few snacks, and everything came out hot, crispy, and delicious. The staff were friendly, and the place had a clean, cozy atmosphere that's perfect for hanging out with friends or grabbing a quick treat. Prices were reasonable, and there were plenty of options to choose from. Definitely a great spot if you're craving milk tea and tasty snacks. I'll be back to try more items on the menu!

    Found my favorite childhood snack, mixed rice paper at Moc Delights--a fancier version of what I…read moreused to have in Vietnam. I love that the rice paper itself was flavorful, savory, spicy, shrimpy and garlicky. The tamarind sauce on the side was sweet and tangy. I like to pour it over the rice paper so it softened up. I also like the toppings they added for the mixed combo rice paper, nice blend of texture and flavors from jerky, pork rinds, mango, and egg. My personal favorite topping was the Vietnamese coriander, perfect to pair with the rice paper. I highly recommend the combo mixed rice paper. I also got their milk tea & coconut kumquat to try & tbh they were super disappointing. The milk tea & coconut kumquat were unbearably sweet, I couldn't even get to half of the cups. For the milk tea, the tea scent didn't pulled through at all. I was basically sipping on burnt sugary milk. Overall, giving this place 3/5 star because they need to improve their drinks.

    My favorite coffee shop in San Jose. I look forward to going every time. All their drinks are…read moreexcellent. I started with the vanilla bean latte with oat milk. Good hot or iced. Occasionally burnt espresso but I love them too much to mind. I am a matcha snob to say the LEAST. Hands down best coffee shop matcha in the Bay Area. The classic iced matcha latte with honey is grassy and earthy and creamy and a little sweet. The iced banana pudding matcha latte had people lined up around the corner for months when it came out. It is deliciously worth the wait. Best banana cold foam in my opinion because it's made with actual bananas instead of flavoring so it's much more mellow. The double matcha they had for awhile is also awesome. Banana cold foam also goes great on an espresso latte. Now they let you add whichever cold foam you like to whatever drink which is great. Basically you can't go wrong. They are always changing up the menu for the new season and have lots of unique drinks on their menu. Not much seating inside at this location. The winchester Blvd one has more if that's what you're looking for. Their pastries are also all yummy and they sell their matcha powder for $60 for 100g which is a GREAT price for a great matcha. I would've gate kept this place but everyone already knows about it so I HAVE to show them the love they deserve!!

    I heard that Academic had a new seasonal melon matcha and decided to try it. They told me it was…read moreonly around until the end of July and that it's honeydew flavored. I got the melon matcha with whole milk and the matcha cream top. I think I like their guava matcha more than the honeydew, but it was still good. It had a distinct honeydew flavor and the matcha itself was smooth. A friend of mine tried it and said it tasted like a lip smackers, which I think is a good way to describe it. I came on a Friday morning and it wasn't too busy. All the seats inside were taken but there were open tables outside. There's metered parking along Second and William street and it wasn't hard to find a spot. I love coming to academic and trying their new drinks, so I'll definitely be back.
