    Bad Ass! Looking for a quiet place to work or meet with friends? Looking for a good cup of coffee? Look no further. This quaint little coffee shop is amazing! I have never been here before, and the people working were very friendly and helpful. I ended up grabbing a monkey mocha iced and a bad ass pumpkin hot. Both are excellent. The restrooms were very clean and the overall shop was very clean as well.

    Good coffee shop, good coffee, good beans, I bought two bags of- some of them come grinded already! They also have a drive through - and this is where I ask them if drinks are too sweet. Service is good, coffee is good, very convenient

    Five stars all the way! I can't recommend this coffee shop enough. This shop was able to capture the coastal island vibes the moment you walk in the door - from the decorative interior, luscious plants, all the way to the tropical ingredients. You can read up on their legacy, how they got their name and where they all started by browsing through the art within. Their service was top tier. Manager Mike was very informative, friendly and excited about his work. His positive attitude definitely rubbed off on everyone around. The whole shop was nothing but smiles and good conversation. The coffee was absolutely fantastic. We got to sample their freeze blend, which was delicious. They make their ice cubes out of coffee! So, no more watered down coffee in this blistering Texas heat. We will definitely be visiting again and hoping that this company expands further into the southwest portions of Houston.

    Such a cute place for a coffee!! If you are someone who likes donkeys and coffee, it's the place for you. Coffees are great too. They are not too sweet nor too bitter. And the best part, you also get to donate for the lovely donkeys :)

    I've tried this coffee spot on several occasions already and I must admit that's it has a nice cozy setting inside the business. The service has always been very pleasant and prompt. Today the young man who made my drink did an amazing presentation and the drink was extremely good. Definitely keep up the great work and you have a lifetime customer.

    I was in need of an afternoon pick me up after the Galentine's Yelp Elite Event. North Houston CM Brittany suggested Bad Ass Coffee since it was near by. I wasn't familiar with this establishment prior to visiting. At present, there are only two in TX (the other one is in McKinney). This is a nice coffee shop in a small shopping strip. The store is pretty spacious and it was very clean. On the day that I stopped in, they were selling merch for 25% off. They also have a drive thru. The staff was very friendly and provided suggestions of drinks that I may like based on my flavor preferences. I decided to order the Three Waves Latte with Oat Milk. It has coconut, caramel, and macadamia nut. I prefer iced coffee in the afternoon, but it was cold that day so I went with a hot coffee. It was so good! I loved the coconut flavor and I got the boost that I needed for my drive home. Thanks for the recommendation, B!

    Got a to-go order from here recently in an effort to try something different. Lots of different options here that hover near Hawaiian type flavoring, but plenty of others as well. Order was ready when the app said it would be and placed in a to-go carrier as we had 4 drinks. Drink was fine for me. Really nothing that stood out. I liked that they used coffee-ice for the iced lattes as it prevented some watering down of the drink.

    Loving the place for sake of the name alone (too bad the coffee couldn't hold up to the hype, see below). Pretty busy on a random Saturday afternoon, though, as we're dropping in after a day spent with the Miata Club. Medium decaf flat white made with heavy cream (ordered as a latte with no foam, and I can overhear the baristas now trying to figure out what the ratios are supposed to be). The verdict: they didn't get the ratios right. This one is way too heavy on the cream, or perhaps the coffee itself is just too delicate in flavor. I _will_ give them kudos for being able to get it with no foam, though. So, there's some skill here at least. The live-edge hardwood tables and teal colored walls certainly give off the tropical vibe but the metal chairs aren't making it very inviting to stay for long. And I wish there was stronger Hawaiian reggae playing, but alas, it's just sounds like Bruno Mars on vacation. Cool concept; underwhelming execution. PS: with the School of Rock sharing a wall with the shop, you're not going to get the cozy hang-out-and-read vibes from this place; all I hear right now is a sad trombone (Womp womp) and muffled AC/DC.

    "Condiment" station or self serve station. Notice the syrup bottles there. They also have a sugar free option.

    Had to try out the new coffee spot in Cypress. Very spacious in the inside and a good place to study or just have a coffee date. They serve not only variety of coffee but also snacks/food. Upon arrival I was greeted by most the workers with a "Aloha" which was a nice touch. The person who took my order was very helpful and answered all my questions. I appreciate the fact that I can adjust my sweetness level on the drinks or even the sugar free options. I did try the kono brew and I get that its special type of brew but man almost 6 dollars for a small is kind of pricey. As I was waiting I notice the area where they keep napkins, sugar packets and other essentials has syrup bottles there. I haven't seen ice cube coffees else where but it was great to have. For a first visit drinks, workers, environment all were great.

    I came in on a Wednesday at 2:30 and it was busy but not noisy. The shop is very clean, I love the Hawaiian theme dark colors and turquoise. The vibe is relaxed with some island tunes lightly playing. I ordered the Orange Mango Smoothie with a shot of energy. It was delicious and very refreshing. The bathrooms were spotless. A great stop in to get a little work done or chill with friends.

My girlfriend got a Medium Vitality Bowl (Rating: 4/10) Base- Açaí Toppings- Granola & Honey (Complimentary), Double Banana, Pineapples, Mango and Peanut Butter She said her fruit wasn't sweet and the pineapples were frozen. The richness of the açaí was lacking. We're used to a certain caliber and standard. AND I got a Medium Vitality Bowl (Rating: 7/10) Bases- Guava and Acerola Blend, Blue Bliss Blend, and Cacao Toppings- Granola and Honey (Complimentary), Banana, Blueberry, Goji Berries, and Almond Butter The Almond Butter was stuck on the inside of the top and wasn't really in my bowl. The Guava and Acerola Blend had frozen pieces in my bowl (might not be a popular option). I could slightly taste the Guava, what I did taste I liked, but I would've like to taste more of it. Cacao flavor wasn't rich either. They also don't have as many options as EverBowl, which is our GoTo açaí bowl spot. However, for some reason they're scarce in the city of Houston. My rating...we definitely prefer EverBowl over Vitality Bowl. We wouldn't return. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND EVERBOWL for sure. Y'all won't be disappointed by the comparison. #HappyConciousHealing Y'all :)

    As it's currently over 100 degrees, I'd expect this spot up here packed. Spoiler, it isn't…read more I've placed two orders and they're always ready early, never melted, always prepared correctly. While I do love that they offer both whey and hemp protein, as well as a handful of tasty meal options, like every other smoothie dealer, the sugar content of their offerings can be pretty dang high, so if you choose to indulge expect to treat yo self!

    We came in because I saw online that they were having a free smoothie day in February and came in…read moreat that time. I had called before heading out to make sure they were still doing it, and they said that they were. By the time we got there, they said that they were not doing it anymore, and they ran out of all the supplies. I even told them that I had called before leaving my house and they said that they just ran out. I would have appreciated if they would have checked how much supplies they had before telling people to come up for the smoothies. My family and I drove up there. Multiple people came in after us looking for the free item and turned around and walked away when they did not get it. However, we thought we already drove up there, so we decided to support them. I'm not trying to give a bad review because I did not receive a free smoothie. We bought smoothies for the family so the trip wasn't wasted. My son is a huge mango lover, and that's the one he got and he did not like it at all, although I did not think it was bad. It wasn't sweet and didn't taste like mango. But I digress. One of my daughters got the matcha and we literally all tried it and had to throw it away because no one in our family liked it. I got the spirulina one and I liked the color, but it's not something I would particularly go out and get. Overall, I feel like I'm being very relaxed with my review because it ended up being a nice little family outing. But the final straw for us was the bathrooms. The bathroom was not clean and I had to clean the toilet before allowing my child to use it. We saw a man and woman bringing in supplies while we were there, but it got late and we had to go. I'm not sure if they would have even honored making the free drinks at that point anyways, but at this point everyone in our family tried them and did not like it. Free drinks are not why I am disappointed, but more so that that the bathroom was not clean and it smelled weird in there and no one liked their smoothie in our family. I hope they can make it nicer and not close down because it looks like it's a nice establishment in Vintage Park, but they just have to work on cleanliness and having actually good drinks.
