Reviews describe Café Parka as a charming, bright, modern neighborhood cafe with plants, a cozy vibe and limited seating that can feel busy with lines, while the location and design are repeatedly praised. The drinks are a highlight, with matcha and lattes frequently named among the best in town, strong cold brew, and pastries and cookies described as tasty, though a few entries mention bitterness or inconsistency and higher prices, and some note that the space is small and the crowds can push up prices. Service is friendly when staffed but can be slow or overwhelmed during peak times with only one barista, prompting calls for more staffing on weekends; overall Café Parka comes across as a stylish, high quality cafe suitable for takeout or a quick visit, with the caveats of limited seating and occasional crowding.
if i could put a zero star i would becuz the service was just not it the matcha was good but i have a very bad experience shes not nice at all esp she didnt ask us politely to not taking any pictures she just said not too much pictures & she looks at us up & down i regret i shouldnt have give her a tip👎 also we pay for the matcha not ur attitude!! it was between 14h to 15h thursday also we dont want any problem but we hope for a better experience & also we just saw an influencer taking a photo there thats why we went but left disappointed i hope she would treat clients a little better as we're all spending money there! 😊 thank you!

J'ai conduit 20mn pour une certaine attitude du caissière, jeudi vers 14h20 à 15h. elle était super impolie avec ma soeur, elle nous a dit de ne pas prendre trop de photos, mais elle a été super impolie à ce sujet avec ma soeur. on a même donné des pourboires. the matcha was good but not the service on a reçu.
Facilement mon petit café préféré! Ils font de très bons matcha & service amical. Pas beaucoup de place pour s'asseoir, mais parfait pour un'grab & go'. Je recommande 🫶🏻🍵

Zoe, the cute redhead barista was amazing!! She handled the crowd so well, working alone in a tiny cafe where the line goes outside can be really stressful! She gave the warmest smile to every customer & the Matcha was the best I've EVER had (I'm a connoisseur)! The owners should be blessed to have found such a gem🩷
We came here on Labor Day &, despite the lineup, our drinks were actually good. We expected some inconsistency given how busy it was & the fact that there were only two staff members. Nevertheless, it was great, & the staff were attentive & friendly.
We ordered the Matcha Parka & the Cold Brew. The Matcha Parka was a matcha latte with blackberry syrup. It was a sweet drink, but the blackberry syrup did not overpower the matcha, & you could still taste its deep notes. We were pleasantly surprised that the combination worked well & that the ratio of ingredients was balanced. The Cold Brew was also good.
Seating is limited (a counter by the window & two tables outside), so it is more suitable for takeout. There was a park nearby, so we went there to enjoy our drinks. The matcha drinks were on the pricier side, but overall, our experience was great.
Café Parka est un petit café atypique que j'ai beaucoup aimé ! Situé dans un quartier plus que charmant, ce café propose un large choix de boissons & de pâtisseries variées. Honnêtement, tout donne envie tant la qualité semble au rendez-vous. & pour en avoir goûté, je confirme que c'est le cas ! Le cookie était délicieux, & le matcha tout autant. Le service était impeccable, & le lieu d'autant plus agréable qu'il se trouve à proximité d'un petit parc sublime, parfait pour une balade après la pause. En tout cas, c'est un endroit qui vaut vraiment le détour !
Amazing lavender matcha, shop is cute & service was friendly. They have lots of fun drink options & fun cookies. Will mention the matcha was 11$ but cannot deny it was fabulous. Cute little tables outside very pleasant on a nice day
Si, comme nous, vous êtes tombé dessus en passant devant, vous serez d'accord que c'est un charme ce café. 🥰 Pour une 1ère expérience, c'était agréable, mais pas choquant...Dommage. Le service était super rapide, mais le garçon à la caisse était un peu froid. Je ne pense pas que ce soit quelque chose de personnel, c'était juste un peu trop "professionnel"?. La pâtisserie aux amandes & pistaches était incroyable, c'est sûr que j'y retournerai pour tester les autres. Le latte était basique, par contre le matcha était super bon, étonnant, surtout que je pensais avoir vu & revu ce qu'il y avait à faire avec le matcha. - Il n'y a pas beaucoup de stationnement à proximité. 6.5/10
