    Banana Foam Matcha and Ubelicious
    Emanie M.

    Stopped by Phe on a Sunday afternoon for a quick caffeine fix and for almost $20 for two drinks, I expected a little better quality and a bit more value. The barista took our order hastily, as if ready to just get it over with and close the shop. Our drinks, the Banana foam matcha and Ubelicious, were just alright. The flavors were quite muted and sweetness pretty mild, which for me wasn't a problem since I don't like overly sweet of drinks. Otherwise they have a big space and plenty of seating to accommodate hang outs, study sessions, etc!

    Vietnamese egg coffee

    Stopped in after walking through the farmer's market. This space has changed a few times, so wanted to give the new tenant a try. The coffees looked absolutely decadent and if coffee isn't your thing, they have matcha as well. There are also a handful of pastries available daily. Once I saw Vietnamese Egg Coffee on the menu, I knew I'd have to have that. It was so good. Split a cream filled long john as well and enjoyed taking it slow in a corner with some comfy chairs. Definitely worth sopping in if you're walking around lowertown!

    Viet Coffee
    Ken T.

    I definitely got study/quite vibes walking in. The shop is very spacious and clean. I would absolutely return to just drink some coffee and read a book or something. Service was quick and easy. We used the kiosk to order, which made it easy to see all the options. I had a Viet coffee, which was a little sweet for me, but tasted fairly authentic. I'm sure others would really enjoy it.

    Egg coffee
    Lily D.

    When ordering, it looks like they only offer cold drinks and only one size. I couldn't find the hot version of the egg coffee. The egg coffee is a Vietnamese condensed milk base versus a black coffee. The matcha was bitter, watery, and overpowers the pandan coconut flavoring. Pandan coconut has a nice flavor but it gets lost when mixing in the matcha, and becomes more of an aftertaste/hint. It would have definitely been a better ratio if the matcha wasn't watery. Parking is not the greatest situation, especially if the farmer markets or games are happening the same time you come. There's plenty of seat options inside.

    Been wanting to try this place out for a while and the coffee was good. Very strong and sweet. The parking here gives me anxiety though. The day I went there were so many roads blocked off so I circled around a few times trying to find parking. No parking spots marked clearly for phe coffee so I wasn't sure where to park. I did see some paid parking but wasn't sure if that was for customers. My sister and I drove separately and met up there so thankfully she was able to find a spot close by and I parked far away and waited for her to bring me my order. Glad we were able to try it though. It's nice to stop in if you are there for the farmers market or saints game but not sure if I would drive around that area just to stop there due to the parking. I will stop by next time I'm in the area for something and try their other items.

    Decent matcha- there were too many crunchies on top but that's me being picky. Overall it was better than a lot of spots but probably wouldn't need to go back. Good banana flavor but matcha flavor wasn't as strong as I would've liked.

    Stumbled across this gem while walking around the St. Paul Art Crawl after spotting their little sign outside--and wow, what a find! Lots of great drink options and tasty treats! The vibe is cozy, relaxing, and effortlessly cool: industrial meets plant-mom energy, exactly the kind of coffee shop you want to linger in. I ordered a strawberry croffle and my husband got the egg coffee with cheese foam which he said is the best coffee he has ever had! While the strawberries were disappointingly small and it leaned a bit heavy on the whipped cream, the croffle itself was wonderfully flaky and delicious. I'd absolutely come back again--next time with my laptop :)

    Bischoff Waffle
    Millena S.

    Whew so this place is SOOO good. I honestly love the super unique flavors and combos. I personally had the banana latte and my partner got the pan dan whole milk matcha with banana cold foam. Extremely unique and delicious syrups paired with tastyyyyy flavors. They are also super nice and accommodating to any changes to the drink, they absolutely work with you to make sure you have a drink that you like! We loved this spot so much that we came back 3 times in a week because it was a hit. I also got the Bischoff waffle pastry and it was good but just a tad too much of that frosting stuff. Otherwise it went well with the coffee! Parking is meh, if you go during the weekend market it's especially MEH since every street spot is taken. Ambience is soooo cute and cozy. It's the perfect spot for versatility, you can study, meet a friend, or just enjoy yourself. There are multiple seating options from couch to large table to two comfy seats. The only downside is the bathroom which is really the Bullvino bathroom next door, kind of a maze but can't blame them for lowertown architecture!!!! Overall 100/10 I love this place and can't get enough.

    Egg coffee
    Aimee N.

    What a fun new addition to the area. I don't get to Saint Paul much but Phe might be a good reason for me to venture to this side of town more! My son and I were staying overnight for a concert at Grand Casino and Phê popped up as a possible spot to try when I was looking for a good breakfast spot. Was able to find premium parking around 9:30 on a Monday. Easy to order, can do so on iPad or with the person at register. My son got an iced matcha and I got an egg coffee. Convinced him to get something to eat (selfishly so I could taste) and he got a biscoff croffle. I can say, I love the egg coffee! You get the strong viet coffee flavor paired with the sweet, eggy taste of the cold foam, perfect combo. I've had many an egg coffee and I thought this one was perfect. If you have never had an croffle, it's a must try. Crispy outside and inside is still flaky and soft croissant, love it. It was difficult to cut into at first, if you are brave enough pick it up and take a bite! The toppings are plentiful so I did not as I knew it would be all over me and the table. It was so good we ordered a Nutella and Oreo croffles Togo for my other sons. As for ambiance, there's a quieter vibe on a weekday morning. Definitely a good spot to get some work done. Everyone was quiet, not a lot of loud talking/chatter when we were there but again it was a Monday and might just be a quieter day. Comfy leather chairs, very modern and industrial flair to the place. Plenty of games if you bring kids or game loving friends to spend some quality time with. Definitely will be back when I'm in the area!

    THIS PLACE IS SO WONDERFUL!!! I mean from the aesthetic, to the fabulous service and of course the coffee!! This place is an absolute gem in St Paul! Parking can be a bit tricky. We were lucky enough to grab some paid street parking that was fairly close. This place is RIGHT next to the St. Paul farmers market and would be an awesome place to stop by in the summer! The vibes here are so lovely! Cozy, sweet and clean! There are so many different seating options as well! My boyfriend got a regular latte and I got the ubelious with oatmilk! Holy cow! Such a good drink!! I will definitely be back!! If you are coming to study, the chairs/ tables next to the walls do have some outlets :) There is also some limited food options that did look good! Give this place a try!

    This cafe is a great place to work from! The shop is spacious and has so many options on the menu. The staff was also super helpful with the menu!

    Visited Sunday morning since I wouldn't have to pay for street parking. I had no problem ordering on the kiosk, although you can also order in person. I ordered the purple lava specialty Vietnamese coffee, which was a delicious twist on a classic favorite. I also had the Banh Mi Ni, which was decent and very filling. I visited early morning and I didn't have to wait for long for my order and there was space for me to chill and enjoy my food while getting some work done. The WiFi was readily accessible and the space was very clean.

    Coffee, strawberry croffle

    Love the salty cheesy coffee! Came here for the egg donuts but looks like they stopped serving them, was pretty bummed but everything I've had here so far has been delicious. Plus really cool vibes

    I typically frequent the original shop on West 7th, yet today was my first visit to the Wee shop…read moreeven though I've driven by it a million times. Parking - tough! Give yourself extra time as there is no designated lot. Contrary, there are plenty of street spots but there's no guarantee you'll get a close spot. Exterior- easy to spot! Cute signage and bonus exterior patio and tables during the warm months. inviting plants and lots of commotion with the surrounding shops and restaurants including the co-op. Interior - cozy! Large window allows natural lighting along with a long horizontal bar with plug ins for remote work. Caution: it's small hence the wee name. If you're looking for large and intimate, travel down to West 7th. Drinks - parallel menu to the original shop. All the Irish favorites and more. Iced, hot, whatever you desire. Food - breakfast sandwiches, pastries, and rotating menus. Service - attentive and quick 4 stars due to parking and sadly my iced americano was a little watery today. I'll still be back. Thanks, Wee Claddagh!!

    Cute spot, small space on the inside but they have a handful of tables outside that fit 1-2 people…read more I got their fall special, an iced brown sugar cinnamon latte. It was good but it did lean a bit milky. They are right on Selby so parking can be tricky but I parked a block or so away and walked in which was fine.

There is a decent amount of seating for a place in its location which was nice so I could visit for a couple hours with my friend. I am still surprised I never went here when I was living in St. Paul for so many years. The somewhat annoying thing is that there used to be a free parking lot, and now they charge for it.

The bakery section is so delicious that there should be an addiction warning taped to the pastry display case. They've got all different sorts of coffee orders too, so if you need your morning fix, you're set. The place is always crowded, which is a sign that it's a well-loved hangout and eatery of the community. However, it does mean that you could be standing for a little while until a table opens up. Space always does open though, it's just that sometimes patience is required. However, it's always worth it to enjoy the good vibes and delicious food. Free parking can also be hard to find as most street side parking is full all hours of the day. Be prepared to walk a little ways or to pay the small fee to park behind the building. This is the heart of the Twin Cities though, so this should not be surprising. If I could give this place fifty stars instead of five, I would. The only reason I had to stop eating here was developing celiac disease. For those of you with free will and without gluten troubles, definitely make your way here. I cannot say enough good things about this gem.
