Paper Son Coffee

Long lines and limited seating. I got the Salt bread which had good texture but I thought the taste was just ok. My husband really liked the the Ube and the strawberry cookie. Coffees were ok too. It wasn't bad, I just don't think it was worth standing there for over half an hour to try it.

I was really with high hopes. The pandan latte was good. The guava pillow was very underwhelming. We did try their morning bun and the blue corn cookies and those were all great. I think if they would throw out the dead flowers and be a little more attentive the experience may had been better.

5 stars for: • innovative coffee and tea drinks • creative pastries • helpful staff Tried the Guava Pillow on a staff recommendation and loved every sip. It’s a coffee soda topped with guava foam (light, bubbly, slightly tart, and subtly tropical). Visually, it’s beautiful too: it literally looks like a cloud floating on coffee. 5/5

🫶 Everything feels intentional — from texture to flavor.✅ Arrived around 9:30 am and snagged the last focaccia. Incredibly soft and airy inside, with a slightly crisp, savory top. Layers of pesto, roasted cherry tomatoes, and a rich eggy filling melted into the bread. Subtle coconut aroma from the oil. Crispy bacon bits added the perfect salty crunch. Guava soda with iced coffee was refreshing. Paired with salt bread, it was top-tier. Bring your own bag and clean up. Eco-conscious vibe. Definitely coming back. “Everything feels intentional — from texture to flavor.”

Absolutely delightful coffee, matcha, and baked goodies! This adorable little coffee shop always has a giant line, but I can absolutely see why — the coffee is rich and nutty, either on its own, in a classic espresso drink, or mixed with one of their delightful Asian-inspired syrups. They have some of the best matcha beverages in the city, and I am consistently impressed by their selection of classic and Asian-inspired pastries. Everything is available between opening and when they’re sold out, and they definitely run out of the exciting, house-made pastries — like their ube salt bread, kimchi furikake chorizo scones, or sesame toffee chocolate chip cookies — quite quickly, so you have to get there early if you want to indulge. I usually try to arrive within an hour or two of them opening if I want one of their delicious Asian-inspired pastries, but it’s absolutely worth the early morning trek. I especially love their salt bread, which is super buttery and pillowy, and it has a great balance of salty vs. sweet. I also love their more classic pastries that they got from another bakery for later arrivals. The millet muffin is my go-to — it’s not overly sweet, has a great grainy textu
