Glass Mountain Magazine held an open-mic event here as a part of their annual Boldface conference,…read morewhich is what brought me here. I'll admit that I was somewhat disappointed when I walked in that it didn't seem authentic like I thought it would be. I expected a real French atmosphere and staff, but obviously that's not fair to the place. That's not a critique, but the expectation did influence my experience. The second thing I notice was about the "house-made flavors" for the coffee. I saw the adjective of "house-made" in the Yelp menu pictures which is what got me excited. In-house syrups is the factor that brings me to a coffeeshop. That's what tells me this is the real deal, that this place is putting in real effort to craft a balance drink. Melange realizes this as well. They knew that would draw people, but let me tell you, these flavors are not "house-made." I literally saw a bottle of Monin syrup on the counter. How that is made in house I can't comprehend. Look, I saw the jars of nutella on the counter behind the glass wall, which may make my question sound stupid, but I dumbly thought those were just for the crepes. So when I walked up to the register, I asked the guy "How do you make the nutella flavor for the coffee?" I wanted to know because I myself have tried mixing nutella into my drip coffee at home and it never dissolves. In response, he stared at me in confusion. I rephrased: "Like how do you put the nutella in the latte?" He simply said, "Thin nutella." I did not confront him about the "house-made" adjective on the chalkboard. I did not have it in me. But I thought maybe this could still be good. I was handed a paper cup, which also disappointed me, for I expected a mug, but I can only hold that against myself. The real cardinal sin of coffeeshops that was committed here was that I could not taste the coffee. I am not kidding when I say it tasted like hot nutella milk and that was it. Obviously it tasted good-I like the taste of nutella. But that's not what I ordered. Now again I'm non-confrontational and there were only two employees who were working on a bunch of other orders so I didn't bother complaining. But the lack of coffee in my latte is the bulk of my frustration with Melange Creperie. I also should mention that my latte was decaf, which could have contributed to the distinct lack of coffee taste, I'm not sure, but that seems like an important detail. Now I did enjoy my sausage crepe. The white cheddar and egg were smooth and velvety and the mustard added a nice acidity to contrast with the andouille sausage. But it does feel overpriced at $16 and I wish there was a bit more sausage. If I lived in Houston, I would probably return to try more crepes, but I would never order coffee from here again.

This place could be amazing…read more 1. The pricing is good value and the coffee is good. Here's the improvements. 1. Don't assume everyone is a regular. I recently moved to Houston so saw this and thought to check them out. By not asking if ive been here before they messed up. 1st, no one told me the food comes with a complimentary banana. Not on the menu. No signs. Nothing. I'm allergic. They had to remake my food which is a waste for them too and embarrassing for me. 2. Comes with toast. Great. Amazing. Thanks. Again. Not asked what bread I wanted, did I want jam and butter. 3. No water given. No water stations. No jugs. Nothing. 4. Dirty tables not cleaned quickly. If they did the simple things right id give them 5 out of 5. The food is excellent. Ill be back and next time ill specifically say please no banana and please sourdough toast.

Post Pilates, the husband asked that I pick up some coffee and donuts on the way home,…read morecounterintuitive to my workout but dang it I had EARNED those donuts so it wasn't hard convincing me to grab some on the way! I feel like I'm perpetually on the hunt for a good donut AND coffee shop, usually I've found places that are either or, and it feels like finding a place that does both well is a bit like searching for a unicorn. This came up as being close to my Pilates spot, and I'm glad I stopped in. The coffee was fantastic! My husband asked for the Mexican Mocha (and the mocha is made in house, so good) and I had the coconut honey latte, iced. We both thoroughly enjoyed our coffee's, they were smooth, velvety, and gave us the jolt we needed. The donuts were standard. Nothing great, nothing to write home about. They didn't really hit the spot, and my search for a unicorn continues. This place is cute though and had cozy vibes, I'd love the spend more time here.

All of the baked goods looked amazing, but I came in for lunch and got their lunch special, which includes a sandwich, salad, dessert, and a drink such a great deal! I had my sandwich on a fresh baguette and it was so good. The salad was also really tasty, but the standout for me was the carrot cake it was absolutely incredible. Everything came out to under $20, which is honestly hard to beat for the quality. I also grabbed some cookies for my coworkers and everyone loved them. The staff was extremely friendly and the service was quick. I'll definitely be back to try more of their baked goods and sandwiches!

I'm a frequent traveler, and have already hit some incredible food spots here in Houston. This is now at the top of my breakfast and coffee/tea stops. Drink: I had a divine dirty chai latte with pistachio nut milk (a new milk for me) which really added a fresh twist on a classic morning beverage favorite. La Vita's owner, a very sweet and passionate man who clearly loves what he's doing here, shared that they fly in their chai in powder form from Italy. No nasty syrups or pre-mixed chai here and I can absolutely tell the difference! Food: I had THE BEST everything bagel with bacon, egg, and cheese since my last trip to Manhattan. I won't spill the beans on how they achieve this, but they have legit true NYC bagels here. DO NOT PASS ON THIS sandwich! You'll be very sorry you did. The ambiance is chill, with loads of seating, and the service is top-notch. I highly recommend you get over here as soon as possible! Thanks to Alex and team for a wonderful impromptu delight!

Coco's is located in Midtown downtown Houston. Consequently, Yelpers should not be surprised the…read moreparking is mostly in paid lots, just like in every major city in the US--Cocos does not deserve to lose a star for this as in some reviews that brought down their average. You may order online, in shop through a tablet, or with a person at the register. We used the register because we did not see the tablet and did not want to order ahead online. The ladies who helped us on our visit were very nice. You get a number and they call it when your made to order food is ready. We did not have to wait long. There was medium to low noisy ambiance. It was deserted when we arrived, but they have relatively loud background music. While we were eating it got pretty crowded. Mostly a lot of young people in the middle of the day on a Monday. The inside is small, seating both inside and outside are limited and close together. One lady was studying with her laptop, but there are no plugs. The breakfast sandwich is customizable. We got it on a croissant and with sausage. The eggs had a unique texture and the sandwich a unique flavor that we could not place, but both were very tasty. We also wanted a crepe, but we split the sandwich and it was sufficient. We also got a small mocha and a decaf, both were ok to good. We would definitely come back again and recommend that you give them a try for a crepe or sandwich. It is sad that a few Yelpers brought down their average to 3.8 stars due to petty and unjustified complaints such as having to pay for parking downtown. Other complaints are not the business' fault such as periodic homelessness--it is a downtown area in the US, other cities have far worse homelessness than Midtown Houston and we saw none on this visit. Additionally, complaints about takeout orders are mostly petty. Takeout is never as good as eating at the restaurant and so customers should adjust their expectations rather than dock the business stars. Nearly every recent Yelp review for this who ate at the restaurant gave 4-5 stars for food quality and customer service. Like most of the restaurants in this area it is a pretentious yuppy style place with specialized food. Although not usually our type of place (we like down to earth hole in the wall places with good food or taco truck type restaurants), Coco's is a solid 4 star restaurant for the type of place they are and they offered a 5 star experience on our visit. Again, recommend you give them a try if you are in the mood for crepes or sandwiches.
