About Cafe 86 - Fresno

Cafe 86 is a charming spot reminiscent of balcony cafes in South Korea. The cozy and welcoming interior features light hangings and friendly staff. Popular items include the Halo halo, which tastes like a cinnamon dulce drink, and the unique Upside Down Halo, made with jelly, boba pearls, ube smoothie, Frosted Flakes, flan, and vanilla ice cream. Other favorites are the dense flan, ube tres leche, ube cheesecake, and ube milk tea. The space is small but perfect for a quick visit or a short walk to Woodward. Customers praise the clean store, yummy drinks, and delicious desserts, though some mention it can be a little pricey and not always busy. Staff are friendly, but there are times when they need to hire more employees, especially during busy hours or when restocking bathroom supplies. Visitors are advised to come during Thursday and Friday daytime hours, as more ube baked goods are available then. The menu might benefit from more low-sugar or fat-free options in the future, but current favorites like Kouki Monster Ube and Matcha, Dragon or Calamansi Teas, and the Upside Down Halo are highly recommended. Many customers appreciate the friendly service and the support for local Pinoy businesses, hoping Cafe 86 continues to thrive in the area.
