Danbi Coffee

I’ve tried their matcha rain before but it was my first time trying their strawberry matcha rain and einspanner. I was actually surprised that I liked their strawberry puree, strawberry matchas are a hit or miss for me as some coffee shops make their strawberry puree too sweet and overpowering. However, their strawberry matcha didn’t overpower the matcha flavor and it was actually pretty mellow. It wasn’t too sweet which I really liked, I personally think they could’ve reduced the puree portion to the matcha so I could taste a bit more of the matcha. I think their drink portions are on the smaller side, but if it tastes good, I’m all for it. The einspanner is definitely a sweet treat. It’s smooth, it’s a perfect afternoon sweet drink. It was my first time getting two drinks by myself so I wasn’t aware but they don’t give you cups holders nor do they offer you one. The pickup station is right next to the cashier and when my drinks came out, the person who made my drink called out my name. By the time I went to get my drinks that person was gone, and the cashier was busy talking to another customer so I couldn’t really cut in and ask the cashier if they could offer me a cup holder. I wished they were a bit attentive of the small things.

Danbi matcha actually transformed me. we got the matcha rain and the banana cream matcha half sweetness as a matcha connoisseur who has been drinking matcha for 4 years and have explored matcha cafes in phoenix Boston Shanghai New York Hangzhou Hong Kong I have never had matcha quite like this. The matcha was very smooth and the cream did not overpower the matcha whereas most places struggle with this issue. The matcha stood out in my mouth creating a very explosive experience. Leaving the place left me in tears I genuinely considered maybe LA is the place for me to be near this place

Had no idea this spot was such a big deal until our son introduced us to it! It’s definitely popular with the younger crowd, there was a pretty long line when we got there, but the vibe is fun. They have a huge menu with so many flavored coffee options and different matcha offerings. We decided to try the Banana Cream Matcha and the Strawberry Cream Matcha. Both were delicious, though heads up, they are very sweet! It’s a really nice place to grab a drink and hang out after church. For parking, there is a lot in the back, otherwise, you can usually find street parking right on Green Street.

Full of light and seating, this coffee place is a great place to chill with friends, grab a coffee and pastry, or do some work with sweet snacks on the side. I got an earl grey scone and an einspanner to go. It was near 6pm and they have pastries 50% off after 5pm, which is pretty cool. The scone was crumbly and had subtle hints of earl grey flavor. A cute spot to stop by!

Pro tip: come early because this is popular so it can get packed. We ordered the matcha rain and Einspanner 10/10 for both drinks! The flavor and caffeine intake is on point Would come back!
