Lê Phin

Adorable little spot for coffee and matcha 🍵 I had the egg cream iced coffee (available only on weekends) and it was outstanding! Just the right amount of sweetness and rich flavor. The matcha was only very rich and authentic tasting in flavor without too much sweetness or syrup. They also have a few types of cakes and pastries. Highly recommend!

I liked the pandan latte!! Didn’t knock my socks off but it was good. Honestly, could go heavier on the pandan. Laptop friendly which is nice! It’s a small space so everyone waiting for drinks is kinda packed in there. Seems to attract a tech-y crowd? I heard a lot of "Palantir VC Claude code" around me lol.

I’ve been to countless coffee shops in New York, but Lê Phin Organic Café is on another level! Every drink here tastes phenomenal and alive — you can feel how much love and care goes into each cup. We ended up ordering half the menu!!! Thank God I didnt trust some reviews here for saying the pandan flavor isn’t strong. The pandan latte is from HEAVEN — this is coffee with a gentle hint of pandan, not a sugary dessert. It’s subtle, creamy, and so well-crafted. People expecting a sweet pandan soup are missing the point — this drink shows real skill and restraint. You can taste that they use all organic ingredients, sourced thoughtfully (they even use Trader Joe’s products for quality). Everything feels fresh, natural, and made with intention. Yes, prices are a bit higher, but it’s WORTH it — this is a café that truly cares about flavor, health, and community. It’s a local gem that honors Vietnamese coffee culture while staying creative and modern. The space is warm, minimal, and calming — the kind of place you end up staying longer than planned. If you’re looking for creative drinks and best Vietnamese coffee in NYC, skip the chains and come to Lê Phin. It’s easily one of the most thoughtful and delicious coffee shops in the city.

Came in for the first time this Tuesday morning and ordered the seasonal pumpkin latte. It was so delicious! Space is very limited but the vibes were there. I would definitely revisit 🙂

cute shop and unique drinks, my sister and i come here often and have tried the pandan matcha latte, pandan latte, sweet potato latte, and black sesame latte. the black sesame latte is surprisingly the best out of all of these, very nutty and rich. im pretty sure all syrups are made in house. the inside of the cafe is so cute, and the seasonal decoration makes it a standout. the corner nook is the best spot if you can grab it early enough, great place to sketch or read (wifi didn’t work for me when i tried working here). will definitely be a go to coffee shop when im in the area, worth the hype! edit: wifi works but slow. pandan latte a regular fave!

Such a cute and cozy café! The matcha was delicious, and the honeycomb cake with pandan leaf had a unique and interesting texture and flavor. We’ll definitely be back to try their Vietnamese coffee and sample more of their desserts. The only downside was that it was a bit tricky to find a seat, as the seating area is quite limited.

Le Phin is a hidden gem for anyone curious about Vietnamese coffee culture. I had a great experience trying different styles of Vietnamese coffee—something I didn’t even realize had so much variety until I visited this place. The shop itself is small and cozy, with just a few seats, creating a relaxed, intimate atmosphere. I tried the Vietnamese Iced Coffee and the Pandan Latte, and both were absolutely amazing. The flavors were smooth and well-balanced—not overly strong—making the drinks feel almost like a dessert. The barista was friendly and welcoming, adding to the overall pleasant vibe. If you're looking to explore Vietnamese coffee beyond the basics, Le Phin is definitely worth a visit.
