Comfortable seating inside, but some areas feel a little tight if you need to walk past others standing around. Their coffee was definitely some of the best tasting in the area. Their process works! Getting just a black coffee still had great flavor, almost a sweetness from the beans, and ZERO burnt flavor. The main letdown for me was the breakfast taco. I ordered bacon and egg but had a hard time finding any bacon. My husband got the steak and egg and that one was MUCH better, with a 50/50 egg to steak ratio. Tortilla was soft and delicious, but the salsa added most of the flavor on either choice.

I decided to try their ice vanilla latte and surprised it took me so long to try it. Coffee flavor is fragrant, not too strong or bitter. The vanilla is just the right amount and not too sweet. Everyone is nice and service is super quick. Will definitely come back to this location, never had a bad experience!

I've been coming to Blendin frequently (once a week at least) since moving back to Htown in 2021…read more The quality of their espresso is TOP notch. I used to get a flat white w/ oat milk and 1 stevia (I use my own brand). The combination literally tastes like hot chocolate. It was my go-to for years. As I wanted to lose weight, however, I transitioned to quad Americanos w/ a splash of milk and 1 stevia. Still very tasty. It reminds me of a Starbucks canned coffee (that was LOW sugar) way back in the day that they stopped making (2007-2009). Obviously, there is no comparison w/ re: to quality but I did want to mention. The staff here have always been friendly, particularly Hilary, who I believe is at the Sugarland location now. I recently watched a YouTube video on a guy that travels across cities to try the best coffee and he ranked the pour over at Blendin very high. I need to try that one day! Side note - coming here and having a weekly routine has helped me on my grief journey. Thanks Blendin. You know who it is. It's Young Flaaave!

Today we finally stopped by the new Houston Ave location and went through the drive-thru. Safe to say it lived up to the hype! We ordered the Mazapán cold brew, the Banana Latte, and two breakfast tacos. The drinks were AMAZING--both flavorful without being overly sweet, and the Mazapán cold brew especially stood out. The breakfast tacos were also really good and the perfect quick bite with coffee. Everything came out quickly and the drive-thru experience was smooth. We'll definitely be back on weekends or days off. My only wish is that they opened earlier since I pass by on my way to work and they open at 8 AM. Overall, such a great first visit. Highly recommend checking them out if you're in the area!

Served Iced) - I think their description of "fresh and crisp" was very accurate. I think the cinnamon complimented the matcha well. I wouldn't have thought to put apple cinnamon with matcha. It's feels like matcha meets autumn to me. It's fun I like it. - The Snapshot (A craft coffee float, with house made Esplanade coffee cola and custom black cherry ice cream from Cheaters Creamery. Served in house only and Iced.) - I was expecting something like an affogato when we ordered the drink for some reason but it definitely more of a coke float. They nailed it honestly. I didn't taste any coffee flavor in the few sips I had but my boyfriend said he was able to taste it. The drink comes with a fun Polaroid photo which is fun. Honestly a very unique retro summer vibe drink. - Breakfast Burrito - Honestly pretty decent. - Nutella Banana Bread - Unfortunately their oven was down so we couldn't get it toasted/warm but I think that would've been significantly better. It satisfied my craving. Definitely would consider coming back to try other fun seasonal drinks. In terms of seating, they have a large table in the front of the store, a few seats along the window that is more counter style, and a few tables in the back. From what I saw it looks like they had a decent amount of outlets and USB plugs available. Parking lot is pretty small though. They share a parking lot with a pottery studio and a little clothing store (that's also connected to the coffee shop). Not sure what the street parking situation is. We've come a couple times and would decide to go in or not based on the parking situation.

One of the guys who prepared the coffee, came over and asked how I liked my drink. Great customer service! I will for sure be returning to try out other flavors of coffee/drinks.

The shop is located on the second floor of Scurlock Tower at Houston Methodist Hospital, and the signs throughout the building make it pretty easy to find. The space itself is small, but they make proper espresso-based drinks that are much better than your typical hospital coffee setup. I ordered a flat white and it honestly exceeded expectations. I've also heard their sandwiches are good. Service was straightforward but friendly, and the overall experience was smooth. Definitely a better option than Starbucks or standard hospital coffee. One thing to note: I've heard the lines can get pretty long during early mornings, so plan accordingly if you're stopping by before work or appointments.
