Soyu Coffee Shop
4415 Chestnut St, Philadelphia, PA
Crema's Take
“Soyu is a laid-back Philadelphia spot where creative drinks like their standout matcha lattes and unique tea blends (think mango milk tea and kumquat green tea) are matched by genuinely warm staff and a spacious, clean atmosphere that welcomes you to linger with work or friends. Beyond solid coffee drinks, they've carved out a real niche with their specialty matcha and milk tea offerings that actually taste like their ingredients—not watered down or overly sweet—plus thoughtful touches like board games on the tables and a student discount that make it feel like a genuine third space. With a 4.7 rating and a loyal following, this is the kind of neighborhood cafe that surprises you with a drink that changes your mind about what you thought you liked.”

We ordered the Oreo latte and strawberry matcha, and were able to snag some seats to do work. The Oreo latte was really good, but the matcha was mediocre. It was super watery and light. I would come back for the coffee based drinks, but there are better places to get matcha at the same price point.
Nice cafe with calm and cozy vibe. Tried their mango milk tea for first time and it was perfect for my taste bud. 8.5 out of 10. The place is comfortable and clean. They offer 10% student discount and great place for study andd relax. They have few window seats too.
Best matcha I’ve ever had! Used to say I hated matcha but my friend convinced me to give it another try, I’m hooked! The girls that work there are the sweetest little things ever, so cute to see them in training 😂😂 definitely will be back
Their coffee milk tea is really good. I'm a huge coffee person and only a few bubble tea places get their coffee right, this place is one of them. It's smooth, actually tastes like coffee and is not watered down. The seating area is plenty and super cute.
5 Stars! Their Strawberry Matcha latte is delicious. I also thoroughly enjoyed the Kumquat green tea. The space is clean, comfortable & spacious. They even had Uno & Jenga on the table. Customer service is very good too. I went 3 times in 1 week & will continue to go.
