    Salted Brulee Ca Phe
    Jacob G.

    I stopped by Caphe Roasters with a few friends after seeing it all over social media. The place was definitely living up to the hype--the line was literally out the door when we arrived. It ended up taking about 45 minutes just to place our order, although the drinks themselves came out in around 10 minutes once we ordered. Unfortunately, they were sold out of the egg foam coffee, which was the item I was most excited to try. Instead, I ordered the Salted Brûlée Cà Phê, and it was excellent. The coffee was rich, flavorful, and tasted like a truly authentic Vietnamese iced coffee. Easily one of the better cà phê drinks I've had. The interior is beautifully designed with plenty of seating, and it seemed like a great place to hang out and catch up with friends. We would have stayed longer, but the wait took up most of our available time. Their snack menu also looked really unique, and I'd love to come back to try some of those items. A couple downsides: parking was a challenge since it's mostly street parking, and the location is a bit out of the way from Center City. It's not the easiest place to get to unless you're driving. Overall, the drinks were very good and the space was welcoming, but I don't think the experience was worth a nearly hour-long wait. I'd definitely consider coming back once the hype settles down a bit, because the coffee itself was worth trying.

    Loved the vibe at Cáphê Roasters, from the friendly customers in the line that remained out-the-door for the hour we were there, to the book nook featuring brown and black authors to the staff working seamlessly to turn out delicious food and drinks! The Salted Caramel Brûlée coffee was deep'n'rich. Both the OG and fried chicken bánh mì were satisfyingly crisp on the outside and flavorful on the inside. And the Mala fries stayed crispy longer than any loaded fries I've ever had, with a satisfying hint of heat--fried eggs make everything better! Come a bit before you're hangry with someone you want to chat with and you'll have a great experience!

    Wow, this place gets BUSY ever since they went viral on TikTok and Instagram. On weekends especially, the line genuinely never seems to slow down, so definitely expect a wait for both food and drinks. That being said, the team really does their best to get everything out as quickly as possible despite how packed it gets. Finding a table on weekends can also be pretty difficult, so I'd keep that in mind before going. As for the actual food and drinks, I've enjoyed most of the drinks I've tried here. I also love that they're always coming out with seasonal drinks and food specials, which keeps the menu fun and interesting. Definitely worth keeping up with their Instagram for updates. For the food though, there were a couple things I personally probably wouldn't order again. The J St Sando didn't have much flavor in my opinion, and the OG banh mi just wasn't anything particularly special to me. However, the tamarind fries and the gochujang fried chicken banh mi were delicious!! Those were definitely the standouts for me and what I'd come back for. Overall still a really fun spot with great energy and creative menu items.

    If you love bold coffee and flavorful bites, Caphe Roasters is a MUST try. Tucked in a residential area (so yes, parking can be a little tricky), but trust me... it's worth it. We got lucky and found a spot, and once you walk in, the vibe is instantly a win. Spacious seating, Wi-Fi, and you can actually see them roasting the beans. Now let's get into the FOOD + COFFEE... We ordered the Salted Brulee CaPhe: Vietnamese salted coffee. Strong and balanced. Coffee is topped w/ a salted cream cold foam and torched brown sugar that you can only order iced. It's Strong. Sweet. Smooth. This Vietnamese coffee does NOT play!!! Whew! it's bold with a rich flavor that hits just right. If you love strong coffee, you're going to be hooked. Sunny's Hot Sando. Oh my This right here!! Made with a honey hot chili oil aioli using their house made chili oil packed with flavor and just the right heat. The eggs were soft, fluffy, and cooked perfectly, and everything just came together so well. Paired with that coffee!! Taste buds activated!!! They also have fries and a variety of Vietnamese eats, plus you can grab their chili oil to take home. yes, it's that good!! Service was good, friendly and smooth. Overall: Flavor, vibe, experience was great. Definitely a spot I'll be coming back to try more.

    I always stop by here when I'm in the area. You really can't go wrong with the egg coffee (unless they're sold out) but! Their other drinks are all great too (:

    Finally was in the area when they're open and stopped in! Unfortunately it was packed and had no seating, so we could only get takeout coffees. And they sold out of several of their specialty drinks. I was especially interested in the egg coffee, but sadly they ran out. Was able to get a regular cafe sua da and a salted brûlée coffee. The cafe sua da was a bit too sweet while the salted brûlée was perfect. The staff highly recommended their food which I'll have to try next time! that mixed porridge looks so good!

    Been meaning to try for a long time. Decided to host a book club with my friends and it was good decision. The line was out the door at 11am, but we managed to snag a table. We waited about 20 minutes to order and another 15 minutes for our food to be ready. It wasn't too noisy and we were able to talk amongst ourselves. I got the Sunny hot sando and the OG Bahn mi and tamarind fries to go. I probably wouldn't get the sando again, I don't think the baguette is the best choice for a breakfast sandwich. The Bahn mi and fries were really tasty. I'll need to get a drink next time - I will be back!

    Every single time I come here, they knock it our of the park. My favorite banh mi in town, great porridge. The specials are always interesting, so it's hard to choose what to order. The folks who work here always seem like the coolest kids in school and I feel a bit intimidated. But they are always nice. The drinls are good, but go hungry and have a meal here, too. You won't regret it.

    Pandan banana pudding matcha drink. So good!
    Sarah A.

    Came in a few minutes after they opened at 8am on a Saturday morning and there were already a few people inside. Their menu items are unique and flavors are all things that I love. I just had to get their pandan banana pudding matcha and it was amazing! I was visiting from NYC and I wish there was a Càphê Roasters in NYC! 100% they would do so well. It would be a trendy spot for sure. But from the looks of it, it seems to be family owned. They have photos of family/friends and childhood photos framed throughout the café. Super cute and gives it a really warm, homey vibe. Since it was early morning, I just wanted a drink. But on my next visit, I will for sure try their food items which also have rave reviews!

    They have a few of these large tables in the back for larger groups or more spread out working styles.

    This is a regular haunt for me at this point. Love coming in the mornings while the place is a bit emptier and enjoying their breakfast sandos with some morning reading and quiet time. Parking is a bit difficult on adjacent streets, but usually there's a few spaces on Ontario. The vibe and environment here is **chef's kiss**. Feels like my Asian aunt from Philly's living room, if I ever had an Asian aunt from Philly. I feel right at home. Drinks and sandos are all on point. Some might balk slightly at the price, but granted you stay long enough, part of the price is enjoying an extended time in their cafe. There's good outlet, counter, large table, even couch seating available for all kinds of conversations and deep working. Wi-fi is solid too! Staff are friendly too! While we knew a person who worked here we were able to get a drink or two on the house every time we came, so it's definitely worth it to try to become a regular at this place.

    Oh this place lives up to the hype and then some. Came here on a Sunday with a friend and lucky us, we beat the rush crowd and got quick and easy service before grabbing the final seat. This place is POPPING so be ready to wait in line. We tried their drinks and breakfast sandos and wow *chefs kiss* absolutely delicious and filling. I was already day dreaming about returning by the time I left an hour later. I'm also obsessed with the branding; the red in the design is soo good and the interior look is fire.

    Sunny Sando. Yum!!!
    Van Anh N.

    Super busy! Longgggg line to the door and barely any seating! I came alone so was okay sharing space on a couch but if you come in a group, you might have more trouble! Also I found street parking on the side of the building yay Sunny Sando: baguette was chefs kiss. Lap xuong is chefs kiss as always. The egg is super fluffy and yum. And with their cheese/sauce + chili oil it was yummmmm. Yayy!!!!! I liked it a lot. Jasmine matcha latte: yum!!! Def taste the Jasmine. It's very very sweet, basically old Starbucks matcha lattes sweet. If you're tryna actually taste matcha or appreciate it, I would not recommend. Tamarind fries: fries were good! Tamarind salt was good. Together was okay LOL. Unique enough to try once I guess.

I ordered one of their specialty iced coffees, the Chocolate Covered Banana. I'd normally avoid something like this because of the sugar, but it was surprisingly not overly sweet. That said, I didn't really taste much banana. The ordering setup is a bit unusual. You place food orders at one counter and coffee at another. The coffee came out quickly, but the Caesar wrap took over 20 minutes. It didn't seem especially busy in person, so they may have been juggling delivery orders. The kitchen is very small and appeared to have just one cook at the time. It's a family-run business, which is really sweet. It did seem like the owners' kids were working the counters, and they felt a bit inexperienced when it came to handling volume or order issues. On a nice day, it's a lovely spot to sit outside. In bad weather, though, takeout or delivery are really your only options. It's definitely on the pricier side. The Caesar wrap was over $15, and the coffee came to about $8 with tip, though both portions were quite large. I will say, the food is delicious. The wrap was honestly one of the best I've had. Freshly cooked warm chicken, just the right amount of dressing, fresh parmesan, crisp lettuce, all wrapped in a perfectly warmed wrap. I'll definitely be back, and I'm curious to see how they continue to grow and improve.
