"This popular Columbia City-born coffee shop, already with three Seattle locations since 2020, just opened a fourth in Wallingford. It gives caffeine lovers up north a new spot to pick up an egg coffee or ube latte." - kayla sager riley, gabe guarente, aimee rizzo
"Coffeeholic House is a great spot that’s devoted to Vietnamese iced coffee. To add to your phin drip, choose between additions like pandan syrup or salted cream cheese foam, a.k.a. cheesecake that can glide through a straw. If you want something classic, you can order a traditional Vietnamese iced coffee with a smidge of condensed milk. For everyone in between, there are latte flavors like white chocolate hazelnut or lavender rose, plus, you can select the amount of ice and sweetness." - Aimee Rizzo, Kayla Sager Riley

"Last year, several independent Vietnamese-owned coffee shops opened their doors within months of each other, including Coffeeholic in Columbia City." - Bao Nguyen
"Opened by Chen Dien and Trang Cao in Seattle during the pandemic, this takeout-only cafe specializes in Vietnamese slow-drip phin-filter coffee. The couple launched on March 17, briefly closed for two weeks as conditions worsened, then reopened without seating and with floor markers to enforce social distancing — a move driven by the need to cover bills and keep the business alive. They plan to expand offerings in warmer months with items such as watermelon juice, coconut coffee, and lychee or passion fruit tea." - Nick Mancall-Bitel
