A sleek little spot with limited seating and really good coffee. I had a Hojicha Latte which was nice to have (though I'd recommend having it with something to sweeten it a bit). The service was lovely and handled the rush ahead of me really well. I appreciate the efficiency their staff had. Will definitely be back next time I'm in town. read more

I really wanted to love this place but unfortunately i wasn't impressed by any of the four drinks i tried. the ca phe phin was way too sweet for me, the matcha latte and coconut coffee were okay, and the mango smoothie was fine (kinda hard to mess that one up). However, the cafe itself is really nice inside, clean and modern. It was really busy, but the staff were efficient and got our orders out fast. read more

The workers are always super friendly here! A cute cafe in downtown, though it can get quite busy during lunch time. I've tried their matcha latte here, which is strong and not too sweet. The hojicha latte had a nice toasted flavor, making a rich drink! I also tried the banh mi with bbq pork, which was delicious! It was thin, crunchy bread (almost like a panini) with flavorful meat and refreshing veggie toppings. read more

Really nice coffee spot near south station. My friend and I both got the Vietnamese coffee which was DELICIOUS. Not to busy on a friday morning with plenty of seating. He got the spring rolls and I got a muffin and we were both satisfied. Nice spot for some coffee in Boston! read more

Phin Coffeehouse might be my new go-to in Boston! The vibe is super cozy, good wifi, comfy tables, perfect for working or catching up with a friend. The baristas are friendly and helpful in choosing a drink that suits your preferences. I got the cà phê phin and a bánh mì, and honestly, both were so good. The cà phê phin is Vietnamese coffee with condensed milk, and it was strong, rich, and exactly what I needed. If you're a coffee person, you need to try it. The bánh mì was super refreshing. The meat was really flavorful, and everything just came together nicely. The only thing I didn't like was that my bread was a little on the burnt side, which was a bummer. Hopefully just a one-off! But everything else was so good that I'm already planning my next visit! read more

Phin Coffee House - COCONUT COFFEE , hojicha latte , SPRING ROLLS - Vietnamese Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

GET THE COCONUT COFFEE! It reminds me of an affogato but instead of gelato they fill the cup with coconut shaved ice. Doesn't have an artificial flavor and you can still taste the coffee. The original ca phe phin is good too if you want a regular iced viet coffee. read more

Definitely my most visited cafe in Boston! I have tried many items on the menu and they are all pretty good. My favorite drink is the Boston Cream Latte and Coconut Coffee. The matcha here is good too! My go to order is either the pho burrito, banh mi, or spring rolls! They have some new items on the menu so will have yo try those as well. There is seating and plenty of outlets making it a great place to study or work from. read more

5 stars for the most insanely amazing pho burrito you can imagine (I loved it so much I went back the next day for another!). When staying in Boston recently, I was searching on Yelp for an interesting lunch choice and came across Phin and their pho burrito. I'm a huge fan of Vietnamese cuisine and had to try it. Luckily it was a short walk from the hotel. The pho burrito comes with a side of pho broth, but the second time around I opted for no broth since I was on my way to the airport and the broth was honestly the least impressive element of this dish (which is a bummer for a soup themed burrito, but the burrito itself is absolutely worth it.) The burrito is packed with all the flavors you would expect in a bowl of pho. Every bite will leave you shocked about the new vessel for the familiar, comforting dish. Like I mentioned before, the broth wasn't my favorite part as it lacked the depth of flavor (and salt/acid) that I'd expect, but it didn't detract from the main draw of the dish. I ate the first burrito in the shop, while sipping on some good coffee. The next day I took it to-go and ate it in the park. Both times were impressive and made me wish someone was making this dish near me (in Central Florida). Oh well, guess I'll have to go back to Boston for my next fix! read more

I really enjoyed the ice coffee here. Also the sandwiches are filling. I had half a sandwich during my lunch break and it was filling so I was able to have lunch the next day too. read more

Phin Coffee House is a short walk from South Station and offers a nice menu of caffeinated drinks and a selection of salads and sandwiches under $12 (early 2023). The priciest option at $12.95 being their SMOKED SALMON TOAST Avocado, red grape tomatoes, arugula, mozzarella, basil, dill, smoked salmon with balsamic vinegar, and olive oil on thick-cut multigrain. I'm eyeing their $3.95 muffins for a future visit, but this time I ordered their fresh spring rolls $5.75 with shrimp. Depending on where you look, it either has or does not include pickled carrots. I was sad to discover that their Toasttab description (SPRING ROLLS - Two rolls of shrimp/ chicken/ tofu, featuring vermicelli, cucumber, pickled carrots, basil leaves/ mint leaves served with peanut sauce.) was incorrect, while their printed menu was accurate. It was still pretty good, and primarily used as a vehicle for the peanut sauce, but I hope they reconsider and add the pickled carrots back into their fresh rolls, both for a dash of color, as well as of taste. read more

Phin Coffee House has some awesome Viet Coffee. Their Ca Phe Phin coffee is bold, smooth and delicious. Bao buns are a bit too oily (buns were literally dripping in oil), but the beef filling inside is delicious. Coconut Coffee doesn't have much coconut flavor. It was also oddly sour. The cafe is quite small, so it's best to only go in parties of 2 or less. They have free wifi though which is nice. It can be difficult to find a table on the weekends so go early if you can. read more

I was skeptical at the thought of a matcha latte with turmeric, but decided to give it a shot because why not! The drink honestly surpassed my expectations and impressed me a lot. They were having it as one of their specials during the time I visited, would recommend if you see it! The drink was super light and refreshing; I loved the earthiness that the turmeric provided to the drink and how well it complimented the matcha. We came in around a busy lunch rush but the employees made our order with speeed. They had a pretty cool selection of Vietnamese fusion dishes too which I thought was cool! Lots of seating and seems like it'd be a nice place to work at too. read more

Phin coffee shop is such a cute place to meet with a friend or coworker. The ambiance is very cozy, and there are plenty of delicious food and pastry options to enjoy with your coffee.

A cute vietnamese cafe in downtown boston! They have limited seatings. I LOVE their boston cream latte and always end up getting it every single time! It tastes the same every time.Their Ca Phe Phin is also classic and strong. I would love to go back again for their food and baked goods. -8/10 for coffee read more

Stumbled on this place on the way to another coffee shop we frequent and decided to switch it up, glad we did! Originally stopped because we saw it was busy which is always a good sign. Vietnamese style coffee with some unique flavours like boston cream which is delicious! Food looked great too but didn't try, variety of classic breakfast and viet dishes. Would go back to try some other options in the future. Cozy space to work and hangout right in the heart of downtown read more

For all the raving reviews I have seen of Phin the outcome was mediocre. I tried the ube matcha latte iced and the clumsiness of the preparation made the vibrant drink not worth it. The matcha had clumps but the taste had a lot of potential. I got the pho burrito and for the price (17.25) and image on menu I expected a hearty burrito packed with pho goodness. What I got was a small burrito overpowered by the flavor of hoisin sauce and an even smaller portion of pho soup on the side. I really want to love Phin for its innovative Vietnamese-inspired menu. Yet, it's lacking in necessary outlets that would make me want to come back here for a worthwhile cafe run. read more

During my stay in Boston I visited Phin Coffee a few times bc my sister loves their Ca Phe Phin (which is their traditional Vietnamese coffee). The second day I went in, one of the baristas, May, recognized me already. They have such a nice community feel to go with the amazing coffee and food options. It's a must have especially if you work in the financial district. Perfect to stop by for your morning coffee or grab lunch! read more

Phin Coffee House - Braised beef bao buns - Vietnamese Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Stopped in for lunch on a Monday at noon. It is counter service with some seating available. Service was friendly, if you dine in, they'll give you a number and bring the food out to your table. I ordered the ca phe phin iced and the pho burrito. The coffee was delicious. Coffee was smooth, with the perfect amount of condensed milk -not too sweet. If you drink it fast... it does go quite fast as most of the cup is ice. The pho burrito was interesting! Good amount of braised beef. There was good flavor however I wish the sriracha and hoisin sauce came on the side. It wasn't very consistent throughout so some bites had overwhelming amounts of sauce. Pho broth was lackluster... lacked depth. Would definitely come back for the coffee and maybe try some other food options they have read more

Phin Coffee House - Sandwich was amazing!! Place was small and quiet enough to work at. Would go back - Vietnamese Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Stopped by to grab a quick snack and coffee. I was excited to try the vietnamese coffee but it was poorly made. The coffee tasted powdery and as if there were coffee grounds in it.... I took only one sip and asked the lady in the front if it could be remade but she said it was too late because I took a sip... I ended up tossing it away. The beef baos looked extremely good and flavorful. However, it was so bland...The most flavor was from the buns itself. It was also dripping in oil. $14.45 for both beef bun and coffee No parking read more

I have to say I was pleasantly surprised by the food! Well worth their cost, the quality of the ingredients led the flavors of each food we ordered to be spot on! The pickled carrot and radish in the bánh mì was perfect and so was the texture of the actual bread. Although the pâté flavor could have been stronger, overall I enjoyed these sandwiches The phở burrito came as the biggest surprise. The filling of the burrito had the same flavors of phở dặc biệt and the tortilla wrap didn't overwhelm any flavors. While I loved the burrito itself, I did feel like the broth could have had a deeper flavor. As for the coffee, the coconut coffee special is my go to! It's viet espresso poured over a blend of vanilla ice cream and condensed coconut milk. The cà phê phin specialty was pretty strong and I would've preferred more condensed milk mixed in, but it was a solid coffee I definitely recommend trying their coconut water espresso iced because it's SO refreshing, and I'm definitely coming back to try their seasonal drinks! For service, I received my food within 5-10 minutes, and the atmosphere of this cafe was great for studying or taking a break from work! read more

best Vietnamese coffee in Boston!! they open at 7, which is perfect for starting off your mornings. The classic Vietnamese coffee is really strong without being bitter. It's also not too sweet, which I've noticed is a hard balance to find. I also tried the Boston cream latte which is also delicious, but you really can't beat the classic. The only downside is that it takes longer to make, but the coffee is worth it. Also a little pricier, but again the coffee is just so good. read more

The place seems cozy, but seating is limited, especially at peak times. I had too high expectations for the drinks. The ube latte was just okay; there was too much ube powder. Coconut coffee, lack of coconut favors. I probably will not try their drinks, but I might return to try their food. read more

Order: - Pho Burrito (5/5) - Chicken Summer Rolls (4/5) - Mango Smoothie (5/5) Pros: - Great tasting food. They have both Vietnamese and Vietnamese inspired dishes, along with cafe classics like sandwiches and pastries - Affordable. The food is priced around $10-15, which I feel like is pretty well priced for downtown Boston - Cute aesthetics - Kind staff - Quick service Cons: - Long lines. I think this is also a sign of how popular this place is - Limited seating. A lot of people come here to work, study and have meetings. It can be difficult to find a table Overall: I was making a quick visit to Boston and looking for a place to eat that was just a quick chain or fast food. I'm really happy I stumbled upon Phin's.

Phin Coffee House is a perfectly fine cafe. Its location perhaps gives it an advantage, as there is a relative dearth of comparable cafes in this area of Boston. I have not sampled the foods at Phin Coffee House, so I can not and I shall not speak to the food quality at the establishment. I have, however, tried the coffee and tried the water and touched the space. The coffee is good. Nothing life-changing but I have certainly tried far worse. The prices are, in my mind's eye, high, but not extraordinary for this area. Think $5 to $6 for a normal sized cappuccino. The prepared Vietnamese foods looked appealing, although the pastries bore a facade of dryness and mediocrity. Whether they indeed are dry and mediocre is beyond the scope of what I can and what I shall say. As for the so-called ambience, Phin Coffee House is slightly corporate in spirit. In other words, one would hesitate to call it cozy. I say this not as a judgement of quality, but simply as a statement of fact. Different strokos may appeal to different folkos. There is, however, a restroom, which is always a good thing. The staff are friendly and proactive, directing guests to the restroom when they sense a guest is ready and eager to release waste. I would return to Phin Coffee House when I am in the area. I would not, however, seek it out as a destination in and of itself. read more

Savory Bahn Mi's and refreshing coffee! Conveniently located a few minute walk from South Station, Phin Coffee House is an excellent place to grab a bite and a coffee. The service is very quick and everyone is very friendly. The ambiance is perfect for sitting down and reading a book or getting some work done, with a decent amount of seating and a well lit space. It may be difficult to accommodate large groups due to the small tables, however. Overall, 4/5! Will be back! read more

Quick service, cozy lunch spot in the heart of the Boston Financial District. It's still relatively undiscovered since it's tucked away on High Street, so it's still possible to find table space for one or two at noon. The chicken breast is flavorful and well marinated, and pairs well with the pickled veggies, crunchy lettuce, and sweet peanut sauce dressing. Cappucino is on the smaller side but satisfying. read more

Y'all know something? I was going to complain. The first time I ordered Ca Phe Phin, I was thrilled with the quality of the drink. The coffee was strong and luscious, and the condensed milk was perfect for creaminess and sweetness without overpowering the rest. My only complaint was they filled the cup almost to the top with ice. Divine as it was, instead of sip-sip-hooray, it was sip-sip-aww; it's all gone . Before putting them on blast, with the blast retiring a star, I wised up. I gave them another shot, asking for "light ice." Now that's the sip-sip-hooray I'm talking about! Finally, the location is bright and welcoming, and the service is friendly. Thus, now that I've nailed down my order, I can see myself returning. While not as cheap as Dunkies, considering making it is more involved. read more
