There was room for about four cars for free, and there were open spots when I visited on a weekday afternoon, so parking was easy. ![Free parking area at the café](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert-05-1q7jp-900.webp) It is closed on weekends and open weekdays from 7:30 a.m. until 4 p.m. It had that neighborhood-favorite vibe, with lots of nearby residents and office workers dropping in. ![Café exterior open on weekdays](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert-06-1uobt-900.webp) ![Yangjae-dong café space](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert-07-1azw0-900.webp) ## What are the floor-to-ceiling windows and open kitchen like? Inside, it was not huge, but the modern interior was the standout, and everything was kept very tidy. The two owners were sooo kind, too! ![Modern café interior](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert-08-17z7w-900.webp) The floor-to-ceiling windows made it feel open, and the leafy tree view kept it from feeling cramped. It would be nice for a quick break, conversation, or a little work. ![Café seating with floor-to-ceiling windows and a tree view](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert-09-10734-900.webp) Since it has an open kitchen, it was fun to see the making process, and it also felt clean. Delivery orders kept coming in, and plenty of takeaway customers came and went too. ![Café open kitchen](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert-10-n4opq-900.webp) ## How do you choose the beans and drinks? There are many coffees, milk teas, and other drinks. For coffee, you can choose nutty Dunkel beans, bright and acidic Balance beans, or decaf. Drinks also come in regular, large, and venti sizes. ![Coffee bean and drink choices](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert-11-i5za6-900.webp) We ordered the signature Helsinki latte with Balance beans and an iced Americano with Dunkel beans, both in large. ![Ordering a Helsinki latte and iced Americano](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert-12-1hem9-900.webp) ## Ordering desserts at 2 p.m. It is also known as a Yangjae-dong bakery café, with loads of tasty desserts, but when we arrived around 2 p.m., many items were already sold out 🥹 There were still a few scones and cookies, though, so we ordered a scone, a matcha chocolate-chip Levain cookie, and a New York peanut butter + strawberry jam cookie (PB&J) too,,! ![Café dessert and cookie display](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert-13-7ps5k-900.webp) ![Choosing scone and cookie desserts](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert-14-28rn1-887.webp) They also sell coffee beans and Dutch coffee, so it seems like a good spot for anyone wanting to buy beans or Dutch coffee. Once we were seated, they warmed up the desserts we ordered and brought them with the drinks. A table full of desserts—this made me sooo happy 🤍 ![A full spread of drinks, cookies, and scone desserts](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert-15-1k0ox-1200.webp) ## Matcha Levain and PB&J cookie flavors ### Matcha chocolate-chip Levain cookie This menu item adds deep, rich premium Jeju matcha to the classic texture of a New York Levain cookie. They say the generous dark chocolate chips and walnuts create an ultimate balance, and after one bite, I could really taste how nicely the intense matcha and sweet chocolate chips worked together. Perfect with coffee! ![Matcha chocolate-chip Levain cookie dessert](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert-16-3wb12-900.webp) ### New York peanut butter + strawberry jam cookie (PB&J) The real taste of America. This popular cookie from a New York hotspot combines a nutty peanut butter cookie, tangy-sweet Andros strawberry jam, and crisp crumble. Every dessert was delicious, so happy,, They really know desserts here,, ![Peanut butter and strawberry jam cookie dessert](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert-17-1m3kq-900.webp) ### Plain scone A traditional British-style scone that is crisp outside and moist inside, with the rich flavor of soft fresh cream. The nutty butter and subtle creaminess come together beautifully. ![Plain scone dessert](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert-18-mnqev-900.webp) They thoughtfully set out wet wipes, tissues, knives, and forks, so we could eat comfortably. ![Dessert utensils and napkins prepared](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert-19-avzq6-900.webp) ## Helsinki latte and Dunkel iced Americano All the desserts were delicious,, and the coffee here was seriously good too,, ![Coffee and dessert pairing](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert-20-14dau-900.webp) ### Signature Helsinki latte A life-changing latte discovered in Helsinki, with wonderfully smooth flavor and no bitterness. It was sweet, but not overly sweet like a vanilla latte—just the right amount, with a slight condensed-milk-like feel? Nutty and sweet. I enjoyed this one so much; there is a reason it is the signature latte. ![Signature Helsinki latte](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert-21-flzeu-900.webp) ### Dunkel bean dark iced Americano I loved its nutty, pleasantly bitter taste,, Customers kept coming and going the whole time, and it made me feel that popular places really do have a reason for being popular - ![Iced Americano with Dunkel beans](https://img.superchart.com/images/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert/yangjae-minimale-helsinki-latte-dessert-22-u44fg-900.webp) I had such a lovely time with my younger sibling and niece/nephew after a long while.
