mandarin coffee stand

I was looking for a cute coffee shop to go to with my husband and this definitely met my expectations. We felt transported to another country immediately because of the aesthetics they have curated here. We had to wait about 35-45 minutes for the coffee and the baristas were nice. I got a ham and cheese croissant (I would rate it a 7/10) and the Vienna with oatmilk (which was the best out of the Toasty and Matcha) in my opinion (8.5/10). My husband got a croffin and the Toasty, and he liked the croffin more than the Toasty. The croffin was really good, and I agreed that the Toasty didn’t blow me away. We ordered Matcha for my sister to go and she said initially it was average, but as you stirred it up it got better. Overall this was a really cute coffee shop with good pastries, nice baristas, and good coffee. If you’re open to wait for the line, I would definitely make my way down to mandarin to try out their coffee!

$9 single origin pour over (Ethiopian) Pastries are similarly-priced. Don't forget to tip! Only 4 customers inside of the shop at any given time due to its size. I wish it was in a larger café to provide more traditional coffee shop vibes.

Super smooth coffee oh my days. I really enjoyed the vienna latte and it wasn't too sweet and the coffee wasn't too bitter and was super creamy and smooth without it being overbearing. The decor and vibe if the shop is super cute and gives a unique antique feel. It's located in a super cute like alleyway with other shops to explore. There isn't seating inside but there's seating outside.

Total Score: 9.400 Ambiance: 5/5 Very cutesy!! Love the art and the indoor moodiness. Gives library. Food: 4.5/5 Got the Sicily, cold brew and very citrusy with orange. P good! Slightly bit toooo sour tho Wow: 1/1 So cute!! Total Score = 3.5*AM + 6*FOOD + 0.5*WOW

This hidden gem of a coffee shop is a must-visit for coffee connoisseurs! Their Vienna coffee is truly exceptional - rich, velvety, and expertly balanced. The shop itself is cozy and intimate, with a warm atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. Despite its small size, the shop packs a big punch in terms of flavor and quality. If you're a coffee lover looking for a unique and delicious experience, look no further. The Vienna coffee alone is worth the wait in line.

Excellent food and drinks, usually the wait can be anywhere from 5-40min depending on what time of day it is. There is a 4 person max inside the coffee shop so you’ll be waiting outside in the shade (if the line is only within the Burlington arcade). The Hojicha matcha and Vienna latte are my favorite. Service can be slow but they make everything fresh in front of you.

I learned about the place from TikTok. It was highly recommended to get a good coffee: Vienna Latte-absolutely delicious. On the way back through town I went back again to try something else but Vienna Latte was hard to beat. There was a line when we got there on Saturday morning, that tells you something. I wasn’t the only one who enjoyed the coffee. While the place itself is small = it serves only to get the coffee, The Arcade itself has plenty of seating available to enjoy the ambiance
