Harbour Kafe is a new Hong Kong-inspired café in Williamsburg, born from a year-long passion project by a family wanting to share the culture they grew up with ☕

Beyond classic Hong Kong drinks like Yuen Yeung and Honey Lemon, they also serve creative matcha and hōjicha drinks, along with pastries and light bites. Their syrups are made in-house, and I loved the little details throughout the space, from the tiled interior to the nostalgic playlist that ties everything together 🎶

What we tried:
🍵 Chrysanthemum Matcha Latte: Refreshing and not too sweet (make sure to mix the chrysanthemum syrup thoroughly!). The floral chrysanthemum comes through first, then gradually transitions into the grassy, earthy matcha. I went with soy milk 🥛☺️

🫘 Red Bean Slush: Almost every Hong Konger’s childhood 🤣 Creamy and nostalgic. It was the sweetest drink we tried (more like a dessert treat, but not overly sweet). It reminded us of the Yi Mei 義美 Creamy Red Bean Popsicle from Taiwan, with a lingering red bean aroma 😊

🥜 Peanut Mochi: You can’t go wrong with mochi ☁️ Chewy, gooey, and heavenly. The coconut-coated exterior pairs so well with the sweet peanut filling, reminding me of peanut candy 👍

☕ Yuen Yeung: You get both the boldness of their medium-dark roast coffee and the smoothness of Hong Kong milk tea. A great pick if you need a tasty caffeine boost 🏃‍♂️

If you’re around Williamsburg, it’s a cozy spot to stop by for a drink and a pastry. They just soft opened, so treat them gently while they settle in 🤍
