Review Summary

Café 2nd Gen comes across as a cozy, well thought out spot with friendly service and inventive drinks ranging from strong Vietnamese coffee to nuanced matcha blends and playful toppings like ube, tiramisu and jasmine; the menu rotates seasonally and the croissant and pastries are praised for texture and balance. The atmosphere is warm and relaxing, suitable for work or conversation, with small details like board games and a calm playlist adding to the vibe. Seating can be limited at times, but the high quality ingredients and creative twists keep many guests coming back, making it a standout go-to in the area.

J'ai pris le ube matcha & mon copain a pris le café vietnamien avec un topping de crème brulé. Les deux boissons étaient excellentes! Le service était aussi 10/10 & super rapide.

I loved everything about this café! Their ube matcha is to die for. The first time I went, they made it a bit too sweet for my liking but the second time they adjusted the sugar level accordingly so it was perfect. The location is great & the interior design is really pretty. I definitely recommend.

Best iced Matcha I've had in a while, excellent service & even better atmosphere! The courtyard in the front is beautiful to sit & enjoy. I also had the almond oatmeal cookie & it was delicious! Must needed for the area, & very affordable.
