    Just walked into bluestone to grab a couple lattes and a 5lb bag of coffee but the staff is cleaning up and said the only thing available is the cold brew and they can't make coffee. Why put closing at 4pm when in reality it closes half an hour or 15mins before that? My last time here wasting my time at yet another establishment that doesn't honor its actual posted business hours. Sad because I was a routine 5lb coffee bean bag purchaser from here.

    Breakfast Bowl

    Checked this place out on a Saturday morning around 9am and it was pretty empty, which I didn't mind. I originally thought it was more of a casual cafe but once inside, it felt like a slightly elevated breakfast/brunch spot. You can either order through a server or scan the QR code at the table and order from your phone. I think it's nice to have both options. We started with drinks: a latte and a chai tea. The latte was super cute (loved the presentation in the blue mug) and tasted great. The chai was also really good. We hung out for out for some time before ordering enjoyed having the place basically to ourselves! At first, we weren't planning to order food but once the place started filling up and we saw what people were getting, we couldn't resist. We ended up splitting the breakfast bowl with smoked salmon and a side of potato wedges. The bowl had kale, warm quinoa, feta, tomatoes, and a poached egg. It was light but still satisfying. Now for the wedges.... They were unreal. Crispy, perfectly seasoned, and came with this sour cream and sweet chili sauce that was seriously addictive. I definitely ate more than my share. By the time we left, the place was packed so it's clearly a neighborhood favorite. Overall, loved the food, the vibe, and will definitely be coming back.

    Side plates and coffee

    Stopped in while our daughter was in the hospital. We stumbled into this place by chance . Wait staff is exceptional. We ordered small plates- pancakes and side of eggs. The pancakes are delicious and served with real maple syrup ! The eggs were scrambled and were delicious and well presented. Coffee- what a great cup of made in house coffee. I drank a carafe by myself . Prices are perfect and I wish that there was one of these in Austin! Well done

    Lemon ricotta pancakes

    This is a quaint breakfast spot to go to with the family or with girlfriends. The atmosphere is quiet and quaint. The food comes out fairly quickly. The wait staff was nice and attentive. Lemon ricotta pancakes - okay, the pancakes are pretty normal, the lemon is very necessary to make these above average. The plating is nice and pleasing to the eye. Soft chili egg scramble - Awesome chili oil flavoring, a dash of spiciness is superb with the avocado. Laura was an excellent waitress. Lovely smile and personality.

    This is supposed to be the cold brew with almond milk.

    Honestly, some of the worst coffee I've ever had in my life and we ordered three different ones cold brew, cappuccino, and chai... all watery, tasted like dishwasher, and after two sips, they all went in the trash. $ wasted

    Soft Chili Scramble w/ Avocado
    Auston P.

    !!One of the best breakfasts ever!! Food: The soft chili scramble is to die for. It's a fluffy soft scramble which is a must if you're serving a scramble. The balance of seasoning on it, mixed with the chili oil paste surrounding the dish. It was out of this world good! Making breakfast exciting can be tough, they nailed it with this dish. I can't wait to try and mimic it at home! Service: All the young ladies were extremely kind. Especially the one who referred me to the amazing dish above! Atmosphere: Very clean modern/classic mix! Small, but cute. I will 100% be back here

    Avocado smash
    Sunny B.

    Delicious brunch spot! They have a lot of vegetarian options. I got the avocado smash, which is their version of avocado toast. It was delicious! The feta packed a tangy punch and the chili flakes added the perfect amount of spice. I wish prices were a little bit cheaper. My one piece of avocado toast was $14! Additionally, although they have a parking lot, parking can get full. We found parking on the nearby street and walked over. Would definitely return to try another dish!

    Bacon, Egg & Cheese Croissant with tomato
    Sandra K.

    I walked in this morning and there was plenty of parking and no one there. It is of course a random Wednesday and fall weather just hit. I got a chai with a shot of espresso which came out piping hot and immediately. I also got a breakfast croissant and added tomatoes. That came out quickly too. My croissant was soggy and floppy so as I picked it up to take a bite all the things came sliding out. Otherwise the bacon could have been thicker and crispier, egg was cooked well and seasoned well. Two tomato slices wasn't very much. I don't even know if I was charged extra or not but if I was then two thin slices is stingy. I wish it would have come with a side of fruit.

    Great coffee!!! Haven't had pumpkin spice with a twist like they make it here!! Food wasn't anything to talk about.

    Pumpkin Suede Cold Brew
    Brooke A.

    Such a cute spot but unfortunately was disappointed in my encounter. Tried to order through the app because there was a promo for free coffee. It wasn't working so I asked if they could help or honor it but was told they don't know how to use the app. Got a pumpkin latte and cold brew. The cold brew tasted sour and rancid and wasn't drinkable.

    Soft Chili Scramble with Avocado (chili shallot-folded eggs and avocado with sesame seeds topped with chili oil) for $15

    Bluestone Lane is an Australian-inspired coffee shop and café. Ever since they opened up in the Heights, it has become my go-to spot. The convenience of a private parking lot is a plus, but it does fill up quickly. Thankfully, street parking on Yale Street is usually available. The ambiance is welcoming, with plenty of tables inside and a large outdoor patio. Even when it gets busy, I've never had to wait long for a table. [SMOOTHIES] +Protein Mocha Smoothie (vanilla protein powder, cold brew coffee, blended with cocoa, cinnamon, almond milk, almond butter, and banana) for $10 - This is off their menu, but you can still order it in person! Weirdly, it still shows up on their online menu. Other locations of Bluestone Lane do not have this smoothie! I love this smoothie. - 5/5 [BREAKFAST] +Soft Chili Scramble with Avocado (chili shallot-folded eggs and avocado with sesame seeds topped with chili oil) for $15 - This is a small breakfast plate if you just want a small bite. I typically order this every time I go! - 5/5 While these are my go-to items, everything else on the menu is fantastic. Bluestone Lane isn't a fancy restaurant, but it prides itself on fresh ingredients and excellent coffee. The service is always great, making it an ideal spot for a quick meal or a relaxed brunch. Plus, it's kid-friendly; I often bring my baby along, stroller and all, without any issues. I would highly recommend checking them out!

    Australian-influenced café that is a must-try! They miraculously have their own dedicated parking lot and ample street parking despite being located in the Heights, so parking is fairly easy. They have a really cute outdoor patio with white and blue umbrella ambiance for days with nice weather, and they all blues and whites inside with Gray Malin aerial photos of Australian beaches decorating the walls. The staff is all incredibly friendly and helpful. They recommended the Flat White and the Avocado Smash as traditional Australian favorites, so that's what I got! I added bacon and poached egg, which made it particularly scrumptious. The plate was creatively presented with some sort of avocado purée surrounding the main dish, and there was also a little something that added a slight kick to the flavor. I'm normally a cappuccino drinker, but the flat white was delicious! A less airy alternative to the cappuccino according to the waiter, and I'd agree. It was very well made. I ordered a side of heirloom carrots (because why don't more places do carrots?!) but had to take them home because I was too full from my meal. But also delicious! I plan on returning soon!

    Soft Chili Scramble w/ Avocado

    Cute name. Nice, clean interior. Our server took our order, but seemed largely bored and disinterested in the whole affair. My friend ordered berries that never came. She died a little on the inside. My "soft" scramble was anything but cooked as claimed. Hard and lacking any impressionable flavor, Bluestone Lane isn't one I would return to for a delicious breakfast.

    The menu offered a nice variety of different option BUT it was overpriced for the portion size. And the pancakes sucked.

    Do they have servers who take your order at the table or do you order at the counter and find a seat?

I also did not know that they would have people come in to speak on the issue and I found it insightful. For those interested, I believe they will have these talks every 4th Friday of every month :) Aside from that, the baristas were very nice! The seating inside is super cozy and comfy and I also liked that there's a lot of outlets where I could plug my devices in. For my drink I ordered an iced Sweet Toff. It was the perfect amount of sweetness and I liked how the toffee flavor wasn't too overpowering of the coffee flavor

It's undoubtedly casual with a hipstery feel that is reminiscent of something that would be in Austin or Portland. The name is also appropo since I can never get out of here without ordering at least two cups of something. The interior is nice with a bit of a warehouse vibe but lots of natural lighting and a good amount of seating from sofas to communal tables and even covered outdoor seating. Parking isn't a problem and there's It's usually nice and quiet, which makes it a really ideal place to hit the ground running with some laptop action. The fairly fast WiFi is an added plus. Another thumbs up is their affordable prices which are around $5 or less. In the inflated world of coffee and foodflation, this is always a thumbs up. Ironically I end up ordering their most expensive drinks, which are mainly their house favorites ($5.50). The secret squirrel, mochanut, sweet toff,and white mocha, which are all a solid option. Their matcha latte ($5) and lemonade ($3) are refreshing and easy to order on any of our warmest days. Service has also been among their strong suits. They've been efficient with orders, good to point people out to where bathrooms, WiFi passwords, and focusing on their mission of ending human trafficking. They have noted themselves as Houston's first non-profit coffee shop that is dedicated to ending human trafficking. Well then. In that case, I'll have another cup.

    My beloved Boomtown RIP…read more This pains me to write. Different is certainly not always better, especially when what you had was already working. I much prefer the saying if it ain't broke don't fix it. To the people who bought this place, I know your motto is "different is better," but please stop taking that so literally. You do not have to change every aspect of this place to make it different. The best thing about getting your everyday local coffee is seeing the same baristas you've seen over and over again, familiar faces who know you by name. This was one of those places where I'd hate to admit how much money I've spent here, and I did it happily. In just three weeks, our beloved spot, one I would willingly drive out of my way for, has gone so far downhill that I barely recognize it. From the eyesore taco warmer that practically knocks you in the face while you're ordering, replacing a space that once showcased lovely things like fresh flowers and local trinkets, to the disappearance of the wonderful local treats from Sinfull Bakery that kids genuinely enjoyed. At first I thought maybe you were just out, but after three weeks it became clear that expenses were being cut across the board and those items may never come back. And where do I even begin. The new oat milk is terrible. It completely changes the look and taste of the coffee and is immediately noticeable. I won't harp on the change of hours or the change in flavor of your coffee beans, but I feel it must be mentioned because, well, it's noticeable. And now the cleanliness. Spilled taco sauce all over the floor, and when your kid points it out, you know you're in trouble at that point. Dishes piled so high they're overflowing, dirty restrooms. And to be clear, this isn't the staff's fault, there is simply not enough staff to keep up with these things. Never ever in seven years of being a frequent visitor has it been this bad. I also noticed the new coffee packaging, and it's just another reminder that the heart and thoughtfulness that once defined this place are gone. At this rate I half expect robots handing me my latte in a few weeks so you can save a few more bucks. And getting rid of Toast. Even if Toast was an expensive platform to use, it was legitimately so convenient. And dang, if you're going to do away with it, don't replace it with the worst possible ordering system ever, one that doesn't even work. Do you know how many orders I wouldn't have placed if it weren't for Toast? Toast made those orders possible when I didn't have time to wait. Without it, I simply wouldn't have ordered. I understand times are tough for many businesses, but you all were booming. The new online ordering system doesn't work. You may as well do away with it altogether because this one just isn't it. Honestly, I am devastated. You knocked it out of the park in every area, cleanliness, service, food. I never had a single bad item on the menu. The coffee was beyond. When my family moved out of the city a year and a half ago, I still drove 35 minutes one way just to get your food and coffee, over an hour round trip again and again. I don't think you understand how this new direction has driven this place into the ground in a matter of three weeks. Sadly all good things must come to an end.
