Hien From Vietnam

8.1/10

AI-generated summary

Get the . People call it the best in the city, strong and pure with no chocolate taste and none of the watery dilution. It's a one person shop and regulars love the owner. The crushed ice makes it drink like a slushy in summer. It runs pricier than the cheap Chinatown counters.

  • Still absolutely recommend Hien on top, definitely a pure cà phê flavor with no chocolate taste. I do like all the rest a lot less than Hien by a pretty wide margin

  • replying to u/elevenpaperairplane: Hien From Vietnam in Manhattan's Chinatown! One-person shop, easily the best in all of NYC Lots of other options too like Le Gaz (LES, good), Lê Phin (EV, just ok), Larry's Cà Phê (Williamsburg/Park Slope, matcha options), Kinhfolk (Williamsburg, didn't personally like but others do), FifthSip (SoHo, kinda trendy), but Hien From Vietnam is easily the most bitter/rich/viscous in the city. Also has decaf strangely. All are more or less equally pricey.   Phê from the people behind Mắm is soft opening and might be worth checking out too.  I also like Artara (UES) for Cambodian condensed milk coffee which is pretty similar

    She's the best! Plus the crushed ice makes it like a slushy in the summertime. Incomparable.
