The breakfast combo with thick egg toast is simple yet delicious. The choice of black tea is unsweetened and iced, with a slightly astringent taste, but still acceptable. The price is reasonable and is considered an economical option in Taipei City.
The store is small but elegantly decorated. The interior space is not large but comfortable. The exquisite decoration leaves a lasting impression.
The service from the staff is friendly; even though they are busy, they are able to maintain a good attitude. The ordering process is convenient and supports various payment methods, making for a pleasant service experience.
The Snowball Coffee Shop is located on Heping East Road in the Da'an District of Taipei City, with the nearest MRT station being Guting Station, Exit 4, about a 2-minute walk away. The shop mainly offers takeout, with 5 high stool seats available. Although the space is small, the decor is quite exquisite.
Orders are placed verbally at the counter with the staff, and payment can be made with cash or various forms of payment, and receipts are not provided.
I visited during breakfast hours and initially wanted to go to a breakfast shop, but I was attracted by the sign outside Snowball Coffee (the shop has a menu but also displays many small posters of their dishes), so I went in and ordered the recommended breakfast combo: thick egg toast + black tea.
The thick egg toast lives up to its name… it consists only of thick fried eggs and slightly thicker toast, spread with a thin layer of mayonnaise; aside from that, there are no other ingredients, which is amusingly simple 😆, but it’s not bad! (Other flavors with meat require an additional $20.)
I ordered my black tea without sugar and with no ice; it had a slight astringency, but it was okay.
The original price for both items was $80, but as a combo, it was $65, which is reasonable for Taipei City. The staff prepared it as takeout without asking me, but even when I sat down to eat in the shop, they didn't say anything about it. The dine-in space is small but fairly comfortable; the staff was busy yet still friendly. It’s a place I would consider visiting again.
