Home Coffee Roasters sent me straight into cuteness overload. It serves delicious, quality coffee with unique, seasonal flavors. We came here on a Saturday morning and were able to nab two seats at the table to do some work, and it was packed! Such a popular place for friends to gather and for people to get some work done.
We ordered not one--but two rounds of caffeinated drinks, starting with the Nutella coffee (nutty and not too sweet, albeit a little too subtle on the Nutella flavor, in my opinion as a staunch hazelnut coffee fan) and the jasmine tea latte (which is different from the jasmine latte). The jasmine tea was delicious, fragrant, and dainty, served with foamy milk. We paired the drinks with kimchi avocado toast, which was delicious but slightly pricey for just one slice of bread. Since we were there for a few hours, we ordered a second round of beverages, including the sea salt caramel latte (which was my absolute favorite, for the reason that it is super sweet) and an organic matcha latte (which simply did not disappoint!).
Street parking was simple, and the cafe was easy to find. The store is very spacious and sells merchandise in line with the theme of roasting home coffee. There are even tote bags, sweaters, and bags of coffee beans for sale. Tucked away in the corner is a display of sweet pastries to complement your drink. My advice is to get here early, as there are limited seats. And also bring a jacket! As in the winter, they keep the door to the cafe open, and it got quite cold while sitting inside. All in all, this is a very solid coffee place in Chinatown.
