    We visited 787 Coffee on Sunday, a Puerto Rican coffee shop located in the Montrose area. I absolutely love the aesthetic of the space. It's the kind of place where you can work, do homework, or just meet up with friends. I also love the greenery. One of my favorite features is the wraparound porch on both the lower and upper levels, with seating that overlooks the neighborhood. It creates such a relaxed and welcoming vibe. There was a bit of a wait, but it was actually pleasant because we were able to walk around and get a feel for the space. This place is so cute and has plenty of seating both indoors and outdoors, making it perfect for studying or catching up with friends. I will say that parking can be a bit of a hassle so you'll likely need to street park. They also feature rum- and whiskey-infused beans. We orderer the Horchata and the Dulce de leche latte. If you get your drink iced, it comes in the cutest little package with a fun straw--a small detail that makes the experience even better. Overall, I really enjoyed this place and would definitely come back.

    Prepare to wait over 30 mins for coffee!! I get it, Bad Bunny vibes and Puerto Rican pride. Cool, sure.. thats great. However, while this coffee shop is "cool" and the aesthetic is pleasing, the baristas are slow and pretty bad. (Sorry, not sorry) I ordered 2 horrchata iced lattes to go for me and my dad. The Baristas were so damn behind. 30-35 mins waiting for 2 of the same iced lattes is crazy. And there was a hell of a line. While the baristas see people waiting, they were just having the time of their life talking and dancing. Management looked like Gen-Z which made a lot of sense. Also after finally getting the coffees they weren't great. $11 each!!! Never coming back here.

    I really enjoyed this place! It's such a cute coffee shop with so much seating to study (indoors and outdoors) and catch up with friends in a neighborhood. I will say that the parking is a bit dicey so you will need to street park. However if you live close by, this would be so fun to just walk to. They feature rum and whiskey infused beans, which to me made the coffee "feel" or "taste" smoother but for someone who isn't that picky on notes, I would not be able to tell you if that was true. I got a coquito latte with rum infused beans. If you get iced, your drink comes in a cute lil package with a fun straw instead of a cup. Fun fact, this does not make the coffee alcoholic, it is non-alcoholic. The employees were really nice, they made sure to clean down and disinfect the bar for my friend with an allergy and were helpful in providing recommendations.

    Please come give this place a try. The atmosphere is very welcoming and fresh. Seems like a very good place for a date! The staff is very helpful and informative about the coffee and different beans. Delicious Coffee! Big shoutout to "DOC" he was very helpful! Definitely the MVP of our first time experience here! Thank You 787 Coffee -Santangelo B Gonzales

    Really posh as well as keeping it humble to fit the surrounding neighborhood. Good to have a franchise that has a mom & pop appeal and yet appears to be a thriving corporation. I will let my family and friends know of this place and to frequent this positive addition to the neighborhood. Definitely a spot that eliminates the daily grind and lets you unwind with a cup of americano and a staff willing to answer any questions and maintain a really well run coffee shop. I've been to lots of coffee shops in Austin and Houston this is by far 2nd to Mozarts Coffee in Austin, could've tied for 1st but you've gotta have a lake front view to even come close.

    The good: the vibes and decor are great. The baristas are polite. Parking is easy enough. Regular coffee is good. The empana was filling and well seasoned. The quesito was large and creamy, but a bit too sweet for me. The not so great: it's pricey I mean paying over $$$$ for a quesito is a crime. the specialty coffee is blah. I had the coquito latte and it was fine but did not taste anything like a coquito, there was not even a hint of coconut in sight. I love supporting anything associated with my homeland but as a coffee shop the flavors gotta be there. Hopefully they can sort this out.

    Came here on a Saturday morning. Parking is extremely limited, so I had to park 2 blocks down to the east. There was no line when I ordered. I got the Coquito latte hot. It was very good! It came with a nice charming cup. There is plenty of seating - upstairs and downstairs, inside and out. However, when my friend arrived, the line was 10+ people long, and it took well over 20 minutes for her drink to be made. Their pastry options are also quite limited.

    Finally got to come to this two-story beautiful porch coffee shop. The decor was gorgeous I loved all the sayings painted on the walls. The plants really added a Special Touch, by the way they all have names. The coffee menu is interesting unique to say the least. I did try the coquito latte and I couldn't figure out what the special ingredient was, was it Rosemary or thyme I don't know. I did have a piece of coffee cake which was $7 a little on the pricey side. Parking as in all places Montrose can be a little sketchy, hard to get. If you're not comfortable with street parking then really you might be out of luck. Overall the spot was really cool to hang out and chit chat catch up with a friend. Outside of that the coffee was actually good. I normally don't try iced coffee on the first try. I like to try the black coffee to measure the taste and quality. Service seem to be a little bit overwhelmed there was only one Barista and she was doing the check-in as well. It was a holiday weekend. But great things take time so we have to be patient I have noticed that some of the reviews did say a little something about them being slow. But Perfection takes time, the coffee is good.

    This place was super cute with the swings out on the front porch and the colorful murals but the coffee was extremely expensive for what I found to be merely a satisfactory coffee. I ordered the coquita latte which I was super excited about because I used to get lattes in PR with legit fresh coconut milk. This latte was basic latte with whatever milk you want (I ordered it with oat) and then pumps of coconut syrup. This drink was $9!!!! I have NEVER paid this much for coffee not even at my most favorite coffee shop in Houston when I add syrups, alternative milk, and decaffeinated coffee. The drink was okay imo. I barely tastes the coconut but I'm glad it wasn't overly sweet which tends to happen when you order any coffee drink with syrups. The service was very good. The cashier was very pleasant. My drink came out fairly fast considering the number of people in the establishment. The inside of the cafe was clean. The music upstairs was really loud so if you want to do a little bit of work here then bring some headphones if you think that will bother you. I really enjoyed the song mix but the sound level was just a tad too loud for me so I just put on my airpods and that dampened the sound enough. Also I only saw about 2-3 spots with outlets if you need that for your devices. Parking is extremely limited. Just fyi if you're not familiar with the area so you will likely have to park in the street. Overall, cool spot but I just can't spend that kind of money on a single coffee that's mid.

    As a proud Puerto Rican, I was genuinely excited to see 787 Coffee open here in Houston. We absolutely love the ones back on the island, they truly capture the warmth, flavor, and soul of Puerto Rican coffee culture. Unfortunately, this new location completely missed the mark and doesn't reflect the magic of what you get at 787 in Puerto Rico. My husband and I both ordered the coquito lattes with oat milk, and they were so bland, nothing like coquito. I was honestly taken aback. We also ordered a chicken empanada, which was good, but for two small coffees and two pastries to total $30? That's wild, especially when you know that on the island, the quality is better and the prices are far more reasonable. I understand they've only been open for about three weeks, but this just isn't a good representation of the brand. The space itself is nice, roomy, and aesthetically pleasing, but the Latino flavor and authenticity are missing completely. It truly hurts to see something so special from home feel watered down here in the States. If you ever get the chance, please visit 787 Coffee in Puerto Rico it's amazing. Sadly, Houston didn't capture that same magic. Here's hoping they can turn it around....

    Cute shop, friendly and helpful staff. Drinks were okay. Not amazing but definitely not horrible. Pricey as well.

    It honestly hurts me to give this place anything less than a five-star rating because I really do love my people, but I also have to keep it real. As someone born and raised in PR I am very familiar with these flavors. While I am not a regular coffee drinker, I know what good coffee and good flavor should taste like. I had seen the negative reviews but decided to wait assuming they would work out the kinks and finally visited on a Saturday morning. The place was completely empty at 9 am which honestly made me sad. We ordered an Americano and a coquito matcha. Unfortunately, the matcha was terrible. The coquito flavor was basically nonexistent and you could visibly see the matcha settled at the bottom of the pouch like it had not been mixed properly. The Americano was drinkable but watery and lacked that strong authentic Puerto Rican coffee flavor. This location definitely has some things to work out when it comes to their coffee and syrups but the potential is there!! Now for the positives...The space itself is huge, very cool, and the vibes are great. They were blasting old school reggaeton and honestly the place would make an amazing bar. I also want to note that I have visited other locations outside of Houston and they are great so I know as a business they are capable of doing this right. On top of that, I have tried their chicken empanada and banana bread and both were delicious...so I will definitely give them credit there.

    I'm pretty disappointed to give this place such a low rating. The space is large and I love the many plants they have all around the shop. Parking was hard to find, but that's to be expected on a Sunday funday in Montrose. My total was nearly $40 for two coffees and a take home plastic container of sauce. The service was very slow and I was the only guest ordering. There was a lady server in and out but wasn't tending to guest. Must've been management or something. Anywho, I had to wait a long time for my cold coffee and the actual roast wasn't anything phenomenal as I was expecting. It's a cool spacious hang out if you're looking to get some work done, but I wouldn't make the drive from Galveston again just for coffee.

We street parked nearby and walked over. My boyfriend ordered the Keith Lee Latte, and I ordered Matcha Squared Latte. Both drinks were kept with whole milk and ordered the biggest size for both, as well. Luckily it wasn't busy at all when we arrived and didn't have to wait too long to get our drinks. The drinks were a dark, vibrant green, which is very promising. The quality of the cups and straws are great. I loved the cute little heart shape straws. The drinks tasted excellent. Not too sweet, milky, or bitter. I wish I lived near a La La Land because I want to try more of their drinks!

It was a Wednesday morning with no line in sight so we thought we could quickly get a drink to go. Oh how naive we were. I went straight to the register and ordered an iced lavender latte, one of their signature drinks. They rung me up and told me where to wait for my drink. From there I saw a row of dozens and dozens of receipts for delivery orders, and a cycle of delivery drivers came in to collect these drinks to go. There really must've been dozens of orders ahead of me because it took over 30 mins for me to get my drink. I suppose if you're local you may already know to expect something like this at this popular coffee shop but I had no idea and there was no warning. Folks would go up to ask when their drink would be ready and the employees would exasperatedly go "If you don't see your name on one of these receipts your drink is NOT ready." I do understand their frustration with getting this question so much but they really should let people know when they're ordering, because this was not evident at all. The drink was fine. I think I would have enjoyed a similar drink at a place I didn't have to wait 30 minutes for.

We had a great conversation over a delicious meal and solid coffee, and the steady stream of adorable dogs around us was the perfect bonus. I'd read some reviews complaining about the service, but ours was totally fine--especially for an early Sunday morning.
