I will always sing my praises to Silk Road Café. Objectively one of the best hidden secrets of Chinatown. The workers are lovely and sweet, the atmosphere is intimate and quiet, and the quality of the drinks is always outstanding.
I love Silk Road (I call it “Silky”) because it’s so calm. On the weekends, the place can be packed, but it’s so tranquil on weekdays.
I always enjoy their pot of Rose Green tea or Passion Fruit.
Their breakfast sandwiches are simple, but delicious. I enjoy their ham and egg as well as their sausage egg ones.
I’ve been so frequent as a customer, I have their Chinese songs from the radio memorized lol.

Quaint spot , no frills, sweet and accommodating service. Good wifi too.
I had a pot of jasmine tea while I got work done. I heard the lady at the front help everyone with a smile on her face. This place is a treasure and I’m glad I got to visit!

My favorite matcha ordered to date. Coming from your neighborhood matcha fiend, this matcha was incomparable to any matcha I’ve ever made or bought anywhere. I got it lightly sweetened with honey (which I don’t normally do) and it was just such a perfect matcha. Very reasonable prices for a coffee/ tea shop of this caliber and experience.
Side note: matcha is not on their menu, you have to ask!

This is a very interesting cafe, that has a general seating area next to the coffee bar and gaming towards the back of the building. A pleasant selection of specialty teas and coffees and side dishes. Their coffee with foam milk and a sugar substitute — out-of-this-world! Located on the ever popular Mott Street venue, it’s a great spot for Asian students to come to, to get their homework assignments done. Definitely recommended.
Fantastic place! Great environment, nice jazz music playing at a moderate volume, perfect to sit down to chat with a friend or to work on your computer. Super tasty bubble teas and the waffles were amazing. Great customer service too.
We loved this place! Tea is really delicious (try different mixes prepared on the spot) , but be aware that you will not get your ginger tea if the waitress doesn't like ginger 🙄🤣
