✨ 10/10 simply the best...

96b is a great place to be at, they have a bunch of drink options that cater to a variety of different palettes and some pastry if you’re feeling peckish. The space is a small-medium area with 2 floors, upstairs being the more spacious option. There are tables of both floors allowing you to do work on a laptop. The cafe is generally quiet so a good place to come in if you need to focus with no distractions.

I have attended multiple of their offered workshops and plan to do more as they are so affordable and are a great way to learn about coffee in many different ways whether you want to learn how to taste coffee or learn different brew techniques. Their workshops are highly recommended if you want to learn more about coffee from experienced coffee lovers and also they are great fun!

Their goal is to have customers experience and become more knowledgeable a Vietnamese bean called Liberica which is a different variety of coffee bean grown in Vietnam that offers a distinct flavour profile. Many of their drinks utilise this bean, it’s not a if you like it or hate it situation just a slight spin on the original tastes you may be used to. Definitely do come in and try the Liberica and if you fall in love with it, they also sell it right at the counter.

Only gripe I have is that they close at 6pm. Can’t stay there...
