Phin Caphe & Boba is a must-visit spot for anyone who loves coffee with a creative twist. The moment I stepped inside, I was charmed by the minimalist decor—coffee-themed posters, quotes on white walls, and soft yellow bulb lights hanging from the ceiling. It’s the perfect place to study, chat, or just relax with a fantastic cup of coffee.
Now, let’s talk about the drinks—because WOW. I tried the Iced Egg Coffee and the Iced Pistachio Coffee and both were nothing short of extraordinary.
The Iced Egg Coffee was a revelation. Creamy, rich, and slightly sweet, it tasted like a dessert and a caffeine kick all in one. Did you know egg coffee (*cà phê trứng*) originated in Hanoi during the 1940s when milk was scarce? Resourceful baristas whipped egg yolks with condensed milk to create a luxurious foam, and Phin Caphe has perfected this tradition. Every sip was like a little trip to Vietnam.
The Iced Pistachio Coffee was equally impressive. The nutty, earthy flavor of pistachio paired beautifully with the bold, chocolatey notes of Vietnamese robusta coffee. It’s a modern twist on a classic, and it works so well. I learned that Vietnamese coffee culture is all about bold flavors and creativity, and this drink is a perfect example of that.
The atmosphere here is just as delightful as the drinks. The space feels welcoming and vibrant, with a mix of students, creatives, and coffee enthusiasts all enjoying their time. It’s clear that Phin Caphe & Boba is more than just a café—it’s a community hub.
If you’re in Portland, don’t miss this spot. Whether you’re a coffee connoisseur or just looking for a cozy place to hang out, Phin Caphe & Boba will exceed your expectations. Five stars all the way
