Crema's Take

Yen's pulls off the rare feat of being both a serious specialty coffee destination and a Vietnamese banh mi spot that regulars rave about equally, with their Vietnamese iced coffee delivering the rich, bold intensity that pairs perfectly with their standout banh mi and steamed pork buns. The compact, clean space moves quickly during the morning rush but invites you to linger with a few intimate tables, making it work equally well for a solo coffee moment or a casual meet-up. At around $11-12 for a banh mi, you're getting exceptional value for genuinely craveable food that elevates this beyond typical coffee shop fare.

What to expect

Strong matcha and tea selection, good cold brew. A slow-sit, quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Light food on the menu. Family friendly.

Amazing little Cafe! We came in with the morning rush and had a very short wait, the staff were fast and helpful! We just came for coffee which was delicious and strong but the food smells and looks mouthwatering. Definitely coming back the next time I'm in town!

Yen’s is special. The steamed pork buns are a revelation. And the Vietnamese iced coffee is rich and strong. The service is great and the interior is clean and a good atmosphere.

Very nice and clean place. I came in for lunch and got a Banh Mi and some Thai tea. Came out to around 11-12 dollars. Honestly, for the Banh Mi, it’s not a lot for what you pay but it tastes good for the most part. It only took maybe 3-4 minutes for them to finish making the…
