Hi Cafe
988 El Camino Real suite 3, South San Francisco, CA
Crema's Take
“Hi Cafe draws you in with its minimalist aesthetic and thoughtfully curated atmosphere that somehow makes their Vietnamese coffee and matcha drinks taste even better than they already are. Their bold, smooth Vietnamese coffee is a standout—especially in their affogatos and Vietnamese lattes—though portions can be inconsistent, and the matcha drinks are more hit-or-miss among customers. This newly opened spot pairs excellent espresso-focused drinks with creamy gelato, creating a cozy neighborhood destination that feels more like a personal retreat than a quick coffee stop.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, matcha and tea options too. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings.

Got an affogato - yum. Fairly priced. Friendly service.
No idea why this place has such high rankings since the Matcha drinks taste pretty vile. Maybe the coffee based drinks are better but the matcha-based ones should be avoided.
