Cute cafe in west loop with a variety of food and drink options. Serving was good, and there's plenty of seating to stay and eat. I ordered an iced coffee with coconut condensed milk and it was delicious!!

DO NOT SLEEP ON THIS COFFEE SHOP! This place is an absolute gem! The gentleman taking our order was so kind as he made conversation with us by introducing himself and asking what type of coffee we typically like. He made delicious recommendations and they did not disappoint! The shop itself is stunning with plenty of seating. We tried one of their empanadas and wow, they're onto something with that fusion! I can't wait to come back the next time I'm in Chicago!

Finally got to try out vietfive coffee shop after seeing it on social media. A relatively newer coffee shop in west loop, the interior is cozy and inviting. It's hard to find good Vietnamese style coffee (let alone Vietnamese coffee in general) in the city, so was super excited to visit. The drinks are delicious, with an emphasis on high quality robusta coffee beans from the owners farm in Vietnam, which definitely shines in all their drinks. They also have Vietnamese snacks/foods, including banh mi sandwiches and banh mi empanadas. The banh mi sandwich is some of the best I've had in the city. The staff are friendly and overall great vibes! Love there's another cozy third space cafe for the Asian community! Will definitely add in to my weekend coffee shop routine.

A cool Vietnamese coffee shop in West Loop. We came for the coffee but were more impressed by the food. The staff was also super friendly and attentive. If you're looking for Instagram pictures, this is the place as well. They have a moped in main area and everything is brightly colored. We ordered: - Ca Phe w/condensed milk - Ube Latte - Xa Xiu Pork (Empanadas) The Ube Latte was good, but the Ca Phe was better in my opinion. Definitely try one of the empanadas as well, it's essentially the ban mi filling. So good.

I've decided that Vietfive is now in my top favorite coffee shops. After my first visit there, I was hooked! The coffee is delicious and strong and the owner and employees are so nice. I've come to learn that a great coffee shop must have 1. comfy seating arrangements and 2. strong delicious coffee. This place has both and even more positives that come with it. Me & my girlfriend love this place so much we even made a Tik Tok about it .

(G)o - very cute cafe, perfect to study at or to stop by briefly for an afternoon stroll! Service is fast! (W)ow - Such an adorable interior design and pink/red theme - the pink ladder and red scooter were perfect Valentines day touches (A)ge - mostly 20s, students or working adults with laptops (M)enu - I got the hot ube latte, which was the only drink available in decaf! I swear it tasted like melted butter on popcorn. The closest thing to ambrosia from the percy jackson series. Also, it's entirely purple - who can say no to that?

Came to this store for a sponsored event but this review is on the items I purchased separately. Very cute cafe. Upon learning the family connection to Vietnam, I had to purchase some of the coffee beans. The beans are sourced from the owner's family in Vietnam but roasted here in Chicago. I am so impressed with the coffee beans (red package) that I purchased. The price was reasonable at only $15 for 12 oz. Check them out, they have some delicious sandwiches and empanadas. I will be back to get a nice ice cold Vietnamese coffee.

Got the classics. Ube latte, classic banh mi sandwich, and bbq pork empanada. Service was great. The empanadas are usually sitting the warmer but there happened to be a fresh batch of the bbq pork coming out so I managed to snag a piping hot one to munch while I waited for my other items. The inside had cubed bbq pork, some sliced caramelized carrots and cilantro. I really enjoyed the bits of cilantro which added depth to the flavor. The edges were crispy. The iced ube latte came next. I sipped it before stirring and the robusta coffee was strong and a bit bitter but once the ube was mixed in, it was well balanced and nutty. The banh mi took a little longer to assemble but came out fresh and toasted, cut in half with each half individually wrapped with foil. The space has lots of seating options from bar to table to sofa. Has a corner for their merch and coffee beans. And near the cashier there's also a small snack stand for Asian goodies.

I haven't had a bahn mi and some time and was looking to fill my craving. Fortunately I happened to be in the neighborhood and ordered ahead. I ordered the original bahn mi and the bahn mi empanada. Unfortunately the empanada was not included and I was too far out to turn around. The bahn mi was cut in half and wrapped in foil. I mistakened one of the foil packets for the empanada when I looked in the bag before leaving. Going back to the bahn mi - it was mostly great but was more tangy because of the pickled veggies. So much so it overpowered the pate and mayo - if it was indeed added to the sandwich. I'm used to original bahn mis being more savory and/or balanced with the pickled veggies. Perhaps they were off with my order. I will try again in the future.
