Tay Tah Café
1182 Solano Ave, Albany, CA
Crema's Take
“Tay Tah Café is a beloved neighborhood spot that seamlessly blends Vietnamese banh mi and bagels with an impressive lineup of boba, matcha, and coffee—all served with genuine warmth and the kind of generous spirit that keeps regulars coming back for decades. The vibe is refreshingly unhurried and family-friendly, whether you're grabbing a quick lunch with excellent boba on the side or settling in for a leisurely breakfast, and the staff's kindness (like throwing in free chips or fixing billing mistakes without hesitation) clearly means as much to people as the food itself. It's the rare spot that does a lot of things very well without pretension, hitting that perfect balance between specialty drinks and satisfying, fresh sandwiches.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection. Quick-grab spot. Light food on the menu. Family friendly.

Stopped by Tay Tah Café on Solano Ave in Albany for lunch and had the Avocado Tofu Banh Mi—fresh, flavorful, and such a generous portion that I had to take half home. They also serve coffee, tea, boba, and smoothies. A really nice spot, I’d definitely come back.
Oh, Tay Tah! I’ve been going here ever since I was a little kid, and it’s always had exactly what I wanted - Breakfast sandwiches, boba, smoothies - It’s all delicious! The people who work here are super nice and I’m always glad to come by Tay Tah when I’m in town.
