This trendy Vietnamese coffee shop in South Boston serves up colorful, photogenic drinks with a modern twist, perfect for your next Instagram moment.
"While the first Dorchester location of this cult-favorite coffee shop is in flux — it closed in the fall and maybe will reopen this spring after renovations, or in a new location all together — head to its new location within B/SPOKE seven days a week for specialty coffees. The dark and stormy is a must-try, which sees nitro cold brew layered with chilled Vietnamese coffee and topped with sea-salt cream. Keep things simple with your favorite espresso drinks, while smoothies (like the six one seven, which mixes cold brew, banana, and peanut butter powder) help refuel after a workout. Check out the fridge for overnight oats and other snacks, too." - Nathan Tavares, Erika Adams, Valerie Li Stack
"There’s even more of a reason to head to fan-favorite pick-me-up place in Dorchester, Reign Drink Lab, this weekend." - Nathan Tavares
"Creative Dorchester cafe Reign Drink Lab pairs dark chocolate with Vietnamese coffee for its seasonal Vietnamese hot chocolate, topped with sea salt whip." - Dana Hatic, Rachel Leah Blumenthal
"Holowchik's pop-ups at Reign Drink Lab in Dorchester have drawn lengthy customer lines, showcasing her popular doughnuts and confections." - Nathan Tavares
"From local pastry chef Kate Holowchik — an alum of Yvonne’s, the Townshend, and more — the Lionheart Confections pop-up has been amassing a cult following during its frequent 2021 pop-ups in and around Boston. Catch Lionheart, with its ever-changing menu of whimsical doughnuts, at its Reign Drink Lab residency throughout summer 2021; it’s appearing there every weekend. (Watch Instagram for updates, flavors, and other special events, and stay tuned for news of a permanent location.) If the ube cinnamon roll is available, definitely get it." - Terrence Doyle
