Pound House Coffee

Vietnamese café with solid coffee and matcha. Stopped by a few weekends ago, a little past noon, and the place was already packed. Most of the food items (including the egg rolls) were sold out by then, so we ended up ordering the grilled pork bánh mì, a salted matcha latte, and an egg coffee. The salted matcha latte was great. This was only my second time trying salted foam on a latte, but the sweet-and-salty combination worked as expected. The foam added a pleasant savory note that balanced the matcha nicely without overwhelming it. The egg coffee, unfortunately, was bad. We had to wait an extra 20 minutes for a fresh batch of egg foam, but even then, it didn’t integrate well with the espresso and tasted bitter. My Vietnamese friend mentioned that egg coffee is typically much sweeter

My sister has been telling me about Pound House Coffee's Iced Egg Coffee for months, so I had to try it when I came into Boston. Happy to say it 100% lives up to the hype! The Iced Egg Coffee is delicious. Eat a spoonful of the egg foam and then sip the coffee for a decadent blend of caffeine and sweet creamy goodness. I also had the Bo Kho and it was the perfect cozy meal on a cold winter day. It's got a nice light kick to warm you up, and it comes with a baguette for you to tear up and dip. 10/10 no notes. My family got the grilled pork bahn mi, grilled chicken spring rolls, and the avocado toast. All excellent dishes as well! All that to say- if you find yourself near Ball Square then do yourself a favor and come check this place out!

It was my first time visiting this place, and my girlfriend ordered the matcha. According to her, it was one of the best matchas she has ever had. I ordered a Vietnamese coffee, which was delicious — I’ll definitely come back for the food and more coffee. The place is medium size and there are enough seats. The baristas were really nice and attentive. I highly recommend this place!

The banh mi is incredibly good! As a non-coffee drinker I hadn't paid this place a visit until I got tipped off about the banh mi. I've tried the tofu and the chicken so far and they were both fantastic. Highly recommend!

The Vietnamese coffee is insanely good. Also, if you like strong/flavorful matcha, this is your spot. They get good stuff and don't water it down.
