    I remember when my buddy and I first visited Coffee Lovers. It was dark inside with minimal lights and a couple of risqué arcade games...the atmosphere was weird. Anyways, fast forward a decade or two later, and it's a simple Coffee place with a lot of options for milk tea drinks, coffee drinks, smoothies, che, dessert, and banh mi. Outdoor and indoor seating available. Multiple tvs around the room. Two separate men and women's restrooms. Parking is plentiful in this plaza. The service is friendly and thoughtful. They brought my drink to me while I was waiting. Vietnamese Coffee (comes with condensed milk and choice of hot or cold). The coffee was bold and strong but soothed and sweetened by the condensed milk. It didn't have that aftertaste. My kind of Vietnamese coffee. Support your local business.

    Please do better with DOUBLE checking take out orders before you give them to your customers. This happened to many times where you guys forgot something. Nuoc mam is much needed for banh uot. Very disappointed

    Drove past here a thousand times and now tried it for the first time. Pretty big standalone building on the corner of Capitol and Aborn. Unique for a coffee shop which you normally find as a unit store in a strip mall. They have a huge menu! More than a coffee shop. Viet sandos, apps, plates... I had the coconut coffee, bbq pork banh mi, egg roll with salad, and an iced coffee. Coffees are pretty strong! So if ya like that then you'll dig it. Egg rolls were really good. Lots of meat. Came out piping hot so I know it's made fresh right then. The banh mi sandwich was good except I don't like mayo and they added some type of mayo on it. If I would've known, I would've asked to keep it off. Lots of indoor and outdoor seating. Decorated pretty nice for an older place. Outside is under all shade. And they have a couple TVs showing sports. Lots of old timers sitting around with a cup of coffee and chatting. I like the vibe. They also have a drive-through. So it's super convenient all around. Very cool for a coffee, please. You may not find all the fancy coffee drinks at other coffee joints, though. Definitely coming back!

    Vietnamese coffee

    Came here to get some work done and they had plenty of seats. I just got the Vietnamese coffee (4/5) and it's very strong and less on the sweet side like other viet coffees I've had. Even after the ice melted it still tasted very strong!

    Vietnamese coffee w/ sea salt foam (less sweet)

    Viet coffee!! Yum! I don't usually go out for viet coffee but this was definitely something I'm coming back for. There's a drive thru so it's quick and easy! Service was also great. For $6-$7 a cup, I almost got a heart attack sipping to quickly, but it was well worth it. + viet coffee yes - banh mi no

    Mm, everything here is bomb! I'm all about that scrambled egg bahn mi! Their drinks are delicious from the coffee ones (recommend the salted cream on top!), to their smoothies. Love the avocado smoothie. Their veggie vermicelli noodle dish isn't bad either! Loaded with veggies and with sriracha, pretty good without feeling too heavy. Great place for food and drinks! I did try their avocado coffee and I was confused. Nothing was avocado about it, not in flavor or color. Did it mean avocado oil maybe? No idea if it wasn't ordered correctly and I got the wrong item but probably won't venture for that again. The drive-through is convenient as heck! The interior is very spacious and clean; plenty of places to sit and also has a cafe vibe too where you can post up with your laptop or book. Everyone is kind and quick to service. Definitely recommend.

    Iced Vietnamese Coffee
    Alan D.

    I was carpooling with a family member and she was craving something to snack on and drink, so we decided to pull up here through the drive thru. I was not sure what to get, but Vietnamese coffee can never go wrong with me. Vietnamese Coffee: Man this is what I call Vietnamese coffee. It is very strong and packed quite a punch on the first sip. I love the ice variant more than the hot version, and they did a great job in showcasing what this should taste like. However, I will say that if you are not too huge fan of coffee or don't want anything strong, I recommend steering away from this. But if you really want a good, authentic taste, then go for it. Overall, I can see myself coming back here again.

    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 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.

I ordered a plain black tea iced during this crazy heat wave in March 2026 and a tuna sandwich with extra tuna added cheese toasted. For the price, it was kind of a fit of a bad deal in my opinion just because I enjoy getting a foot-long tuna sandwich from Subway that you can often get for a great deal as a combo. For the sake of supporting small businesses I was OK with the ambience the price of the service. For today's mission, the Wi-Fi was a bit slow with 12 MB per second upload, which is kind of what I get at home so after I finish my meal, I packed up and headed to the library which is just across the street. I can definitely see myself bringing my three dogs here as there was a girl who left her dog outside while she ordered and she spent a few minutes outside on the deck i'm sure this place gets really crowded especially when the weather is nice. No complaints five stars.

The band of cream was about the size of my pinky. I get that less ice =/= more drink added, that's completely normal. But even with LESS ice, 60% of my cup was ice :(. I finished it in 8 sips. For $8, a dollar a sip. In this economy ?!? I got robbed. Next time I'll stick to Izumi or soyful. My friend got the jasmine matcha, no changes and had plenty to drink still long after I finished mine. I went for the creamy MT from soyful after to drown out my sorrows. Unlikely to come back, this was a disappointing experience. Their other drinks seem good though.

Came at July 16 at 11:35am, and ordered 2 pastas and a salad. Theres was only one other singular customer in the entire restaurant who looked like she's already been there a while and was already sitting down when we came in, and 30 minutes flew (which is the end of our lunch break) and that customer just got her food. So imagine how long it took for our food to come out 40+ minutes. I'm not mad about it at all but I was just genuinely so confused. Because it took 40+ mins our 2 pastas came out way before my salad. Even stopping by the crowded starbucks, all 4 of our drinks came out, and we had time to sit and chat and come back and our food was still not ready. I was so so lost about how my salad took so much time when it was just lettuce, proscuitto, and eggs. Compared to TWO whole pastas with chicken and bread. But they also forgot the bread that came out with it. I was actually just confused because the place was practically empty as well. The salad was really average however the pasta was too hard, needed to be boiled way longer, and just did not taste good unfortunately. I rarely give any one stars so this says a lot :( Would not return and should've went to the other spots in the plaza for lunch.
