Come for the coffee, but stay for lunch at newly opened Phin Coffee House in the Financial District. This café not only serves some delicious and unique variations on the standard drip coffee, but their Vietnamese cuisine rivals any Asian restaurant in the area. 

Stop in Monday through Saturday for your daily caffeine fix with a twist. Drinks like the coconut coffee and citrus espresso are unlike any you’ll find at a basic coffee shop. The food menu features bahn mi sandwiches, hearty salads topped with noodles and teriyaki chicken, and small plates of spring rolls and avocado toast. Plus, sweet desserts of matcha sundaes are on their way in time for summer (grab a freshly made cupcake in the meanwhile). Phin Coffee House has limited seating to eat onsite, but is definitely worth a stop when you want something besides your standard coffee and muffin combo. 

Make a trip the next time you’re near the South Station.
