    Breakfast sandwiches
    Sami M.

    The food was fresh and tasty. The bánh mì sandwiches were very good- recommend. You can't go wrong with the drink menu too. Very tasty. Lots of seating for a solo or group trip.

    Black Milk Tea & Matcha Latte
    Shelly J.

    My husband and I stopped by Just Cuz Café for lunch today, and it's such a cute little spot! I ordered the matcha latte, which was really good--I'm already looking forward to coming back to try the strawberry matcha latte next. The salted cheese foam on top was absolutely delicious and really made the drink stand out. My husband got the black milk tea and said it was chef's kiss--definitely a win. We ordered two of the "Eggssential" sandwiches--one with bacon and one without--and both were excellent. A small note--the chairs are visibly worn, and one was falling apart, but my husband was able to swap it out easily, so it didn't impact our experience. The music had a really nostalgic vibe, which we enjoyed. The only thing I'd mention is that a few songs had explicit lyrics, so it might be something to keep in mind for families with young kids. Overall, the food and drinks were amazing, and the girl at the register was friendly. We'll definitely be back!

    Breakfast sandwiches.

    My son and I favorite place to go for breakfast. The sandwiches and coffee are so delicious and service was great. It can get busy and it is a small cafe. Many order to go when it's busy.

    Vibes are amazing and staff are always so friendly. My only feedback is the air, it feels a little congested in there. Maybe finding away to get the doors to be open or windows?

    Egg Sandwich, Amazing!!!
    Xavier Z.

    As soon as we walked in we were greeted by a sweet smiling face. We asked about what's we spill get she recommended the egg sandwich. OMG it was a delicious experience. Definitely a few napkins were needed

    Grilled cheese with a drink
    Joy L.

    Love the ambiance here seating is limited it's small & when it's busy there's hardly indoor seating I'm assuming when it's warmer that they offer outdoor seating ? Staff was nice & fast they accidentally charged me for two drinks & told me to keep the second drink I low key was stoked but struggled to finish them lol They offer sandwiches & I ordered their grilled cheese it was one of the best I've had in a long time. I ant to come back & try their breakfast sandwiches.

    Blueberry matcha latte
    Kelly T.

    This new family owned business js so cute and serves great drinks and food. Pictures is a blueberry matcha latte alright my favorite is their coconut matcha cloud. I've heard others rave about their egg sandwiches as well

    Strawberry matcha
    June D.

    Strawberry matcha and egg sandwich were both very delicious. The egg sandwich was the star for me super fluffy eggs, fresh lettuce, and the bread was perfectly toasted. Everything came together really well and made it a standout. The strawberry matcha was refreshing and nicely layered. Once mixed, it had a great balance of sweet and earthy flavors. The staff were friendly and helpful when it came to choosing a sandwich. The shop itself has a clean, cozy vibe, and the presentation of both the food and drink was on point. Definitely a spot I'd come back to.

    Mango Freeze, Banana Matcha
    Maya A.

    Finally tried Just Cuz Cafe after hearing all the hype for it the past year. This might become a new go to spot for me! The drinks and food were great, the staff was super friendly, and the whole vibe inside was upbeat and fun. I love a cafe with a little chatter and energy. Prices were reasonable and everything came out fresh and hot. I ordered the Banana Match and Egg Banh Mi, and my partner ordered the Mango Freeze and Turkey Pesto. Everything hit the spot. I'm already looking forward to going back and trying more of their menu!

    Bacon Eggsential
    Belldandy O.

    Just Cuz Cafe is a Vietnamese-themed cafe located in Lacey, a short walk from Saint Martin's University. The parking situation is a bit limited in the area, but manageable. There are street parking and a parking lot behind the complex the cafe is located in. Do be mindful where you park because it looks like this parking lot is meant for residents living in the apartments in this area. I noticed there were some other parking lots nearby that were quite spacious but might have been for other businesses in the other. I have been wanting to visit this cafe for a while and finally decided to over the weekend. I rarely ever go down south of Tacoma, so it was a nice change of scenery. It was a bit busier than I expected it to be at 11:20AM on a Sunday. However, my sister and I were able to snag a table after placing our order with the cashier/barista. I ordered the Strawberry Matcha Latte for myself while my sister ordered a regular Matcha Latte. We both ordered our own Bacon Eggsential sandwiches as a little breakfast/brunch item. The Bacon Eggsential is a sandwich made with bacon, soft scrambled eggs, garlic croissant toast, cheese, lettuce, tomato, red onion, sweet mayo, and chives. The sandwiches were SO GOOD. It was truly worth the $14 for the sandwich. It was a lot bigger than we expected, too. It was honestly a bit intimidating when it was brought out to us. It was beautifully crafted and plated up to show the softness of the scrambled eggs and melted cheese. The drinks were good, better than some other matcha places I have tried for sure. I liked that the cups were on the bigger side too. If there is one thing I recommend ordering, it's the Bacon Eggsential sandwich! If you aren't a bacon fan, there is one without bacon!

    Oat milk latte, unsweetened
    Sophia B.

    I've been here a few times, and I am always looking for an excuse to swing by even though it's out of the way of my normal routines. The strawberry matcha here must have some kind of addictive chemical in it, because it's one of the best drinks I've had in my entire life. Delicious matcha and a perfect level of sweetness and strawberry flavor to complement it, without overpowering the matcha. I assume it's real matcha and not artificially sweetened like it is at coffee chains like Starbucks. The coffee is phenomenal too. Really well brewed espresso, very flavorful, not burnt at all. This is a great place to stop for a drink on the go or to sit and enjoy the nice vibes while working. Every employee I've interacted with has always been incredibly friendly. Great place!

    Vietnamese coffee with salt foam & bacon, egg, cheese breakfast sandwich
    Victor N.

    I lived in Lacey back in 2006 and they had nothing like this when I was around. Glad to see some trendy cafes open up and doing it well. The Vietnamese coffee with the salt foam was delicious and the egg, bacon, cheese breakfast sandwich was absolute fire.

    So I've lived less than five minutes from this place for 11 years, and somehow it never caught my…read moreeye. Then I saw their TikTok last night, and let me tell you, that video had me craving it instantly. The scrumptiousness was living rent free in my brain all night, so today my son and I had to stop in and see what the hype was about. We ordered the Sour Diesel, the Fire, and the Afgoo, all on their toasted jalapeño cheese bread. First of all, the female employee who helped us was so friendly and welcoming. We do not eat out much, so we were genuinely excited and maybe a little impatient to try them. When they handed us the sandwiches, I immediately noticed how heavy they were. And the smell in the car on the way home, oh my goodness. Pure torture waiting to unwrap them. Then we got home and opened them up, and I was honestly shocked in the best way. There was actually a MEAL on that bread. Not one of those sad sandwiches that's 80 percent lettuce and air. These were loaded. My teenage son even commented on how good his was, and trust me, teen approval is not handed out lightly. The portions were generous, the flavors were bold, and each sandwich was totally unique and delicious. I can confidently say I have found a new favorite sub spot. Total hidden gem if you love a good sandwich that actually fills you up and tastes incredible. I did not grab a shake this time because it was freezing outside, but after seeing all the flavor options on the menu, I will absolutely be trying one next visit. Highly recommend in every aspect. I love when you try somewhere new and it completely exceeds expectations. This one is a must try.

    Sandwich was delicious! I had the Super Dank Sandwich with pickles, on Jalepeño bread. Really…read moretasty, plenty of toppings, the crushed Doritos is a great touch. Adds a lot of flavor! My only complaint is that it was really messy, but I know that may not bother others. I would try some of their other sandwiched.
