Formula Coffee Roaster

“This cafe is truly exceptional for its coffee and desserts! The owners exhibit both professionalism and friendliness, creating a welcoming atmosphere. As a tourist from Hong Kong, I enjoyed my first experience so much I made sure to visit again and again whenever I’m in town.”

“Fast service! I had ice oat milk latte and hub got ice Osmantha milk. Also ordered the pistachio cheese cake - it’s smooth creamy and rich in pistachio. We love it! We had a special guest appearance - a Rough Collie!”

Glad to have found this coffee shop on our last day in Kaohsiung! The aroma of the coffee is floral and fruity, and it tastes different on each type of drink, i.e: espresso, americano and latte. We loved it! The chocolate pound cake is nice too, pairing it with our drinks. Nice ambience with some jazzy music in the background. Would love to come back again 😊

I had a Flat White here, and it’s the first time I genuinely loved a coffee that’s not sweet. It paired perfectly with the Pistachio Raspberry Cheesecake—truly one of the best cheesecakes I’ve ever tasted. The shop is small but very inviting, with a great taste in music. It does get a bit crowded around 3:00 PM on Sundays, but the atmosphere remains pleasant. The baristas do a fantastic job keeping the stations and tables clean, and the aroma of the coffee beans is wonderfully relaxing. Overall, a delightful experience—I’ll definitely be coming back!

Dropped by on our last day in Taiwan! We arrived 30 mins early and waited for opening. I accidentally messed up our order (confused an Espresso for an Americano), and despite my attempt to clarify at the counter, there was still a small mix-up. A few minutes later, he brought out an espresso! We were both surprised, and he realized the mistake immediately. Instead of making it a thing, he just smiled, told us not to worry, and gave it to us for free. He followed up shortly with our actual Americano and latte. Huge respect to the staff for being so patient and kind about my mistake—thank you for the great service!
