Wow. Where do I even begin with this review. I did not expect this quaint coffee shop nestled on…read morethe corner of a shopping plaza to really blow me away the way that it did. For starters I'd like to think of myself as a bit of a coffee snob. It's one of those things that I can enjoy a multitude of ways, but experiences that go beyond plain enjoyment are few and far between. When I tell you...this is the best quality coffee I've had in Houston I am not bluffing! I've had both the Cashmere and Jade coffee, both hot and iced and they absolutely never miss. The drinks coming out of this place have been consistently fire, so this isn't some one-off shop with a good selection or two. Menu selections are impeccable. Drinks are crafted to absolute perfection. Lines do tend to be long but service is never lacking. Staff is polite and efficient. Not to mention last time I went in there someone was vibing to all the Drake hits which further contributed to the "hipster quality coffee shop" feels (biased preference I know haha). I don't have a single complaint!!! Will absolutely be returning and would endorse this spot to any and everyone looking for quality crafted coffee drinks!

The aesthetics are nice, but the drinks were a little mixed. Some friends said the following about…read moretheir drinks: - Banana Matcha: too sweet - Golden kernel: too salty and doesn't really taste like corn at all. - Einspanner: the coffee used was too burnt but better after it was mixed - Cashmere: too sweet and a little smaller than the other drinks I had the Jet Black, which is a latte with black sesame foam, and I loved it, but that might be because I really like the roasted flavor black sesame in anything if my review were based only on my drink, I would have given this a 5, but taking the other drinks into account, it pulled the rating down.

Love the set up. I had a flat white with honey and cinnamon and they made it exactly how it should be and the coffee was delicious . The two girls at the counter were very friendly and had great attitudes towards the customers. All in all I think this is a great little coffee spot.

Positive- coffee shop is very cute and welcoming. The latte art is very nice…read more Negatives- my latte is not HOT!! Coffee should be hot especially if you ask for hot. The pastries are not good. Croissant was bland and tasted stale. Quiche was sub par.

However this coffee shops reads as more of a pick up and go place, which is totally fine. They only had 2 signature drinks the morning we popped in, and honestly neither really stood out as unique in any way unfortunately. There's the standard coffee options of course and the normal assortment of sweeteners too, so the rest of the order is up to you. There's pastries and breads available, not sure if they're made in house, but it's a smoker shop so maybe not.

We ordered the iced pistachio latte with almond milk and the sweet chocolate iced blend with almond milk and a shot of espresso. Both drinks were delicious and reasonably priced. I'm very delighted that I've found a coffee shop that has a pistachio drink that actually tastes like a pistachio! The customer service was fantastic, the restaurant offers indoor and outdoor seating, although not as spacious as many coffee shops it's still manageable, and we saw online that they offer monthly barista classes. I most definitely plan to return to this establishment!

The barista helped me pick out the perfect latte. I got the Island Latte, which the barista told me has toasted coconut flavors with a hint of pandan. I had them make it semi-sweet... There's limited seating inside, but I found a small table to get some work done (wifi access with purchase). It was a bit hot and humid inside, so I was a bit uncomfy. But that's Texas summer for ya!

Came here to say after a walk at memorial park. My friends and I love to try new coffee spots and…read moreit's always a plus when they actually have food and not only pastries. Parking was difficult to find because it was a Saturday but they said it's usually not bad during the week. The loaded bagel sandwich was so good! The bread was soft with a good flavor and the bacon & turkey sausage complemented each other well. One of my friends had bean and cheese tacos and she mentioned it was a nice touch to have with black beans instead of refried. The biscoff latte was highly recommended in the Yelp reviews and I am a biscoff girly so I figured I'd start there. 10/10. O also had a lemon poppy seed muffin. Super moist and decadent, enough to share!! I'm not crazy about matcha but for those that are you are able to cyo, by selecting your flavor syrup and cold foam with tons of creations available. They also have some staff favs if you're in the mood for something different! ** I subbed my milk for pistachio (never had before) and it was a nice touch So many seating options from booths, couches to tables. Can't wait to try more!

I only got to stop by and do some work here for a little bit between an appointment and dinner…read moreplans, but my experience was good! This is a great spot to get some solo work done or meet with a group. It is not too loud, and they are located within a strip so parking is plentiful. Their menu had a wide variety of hot/cold drinks and sweet treats that you'd typically find in a Yemeni coffee shop, all reasonably priced. The pistachio latte was good, nothing extra memorable but it was what I was looking for in the moment. Keeping this place in mind next time I plan to work remotely from River Oaks (:

They…read moredidn't have a whole lot of variety here in terms of sweets as compared to other Yemeni spots back in California. Iced pistachio latte ($7.50) - This latte had a strong pistachio flavor and had almost a buttery feel to it. I really enjoyed it and it was one of the better pistachio lattes that I have tried. Dubai chocolate ($6) - This consisted of a large milk chocolate bar filled with rich pistachio cream and kataifi (crispy shredded phyllo dough). It tasted amazing and much better than most places selling these. Pricing was reasonable. Overall I enjoyed my latte and dessert. The interior has some Yemeni decor and there is quite a bit of seating. The only negative is that I wish they had more sweet and snack offerings.

I love going to coffee shops that have my name in them ;)…read more No but for real, Yemeni and Turkish coffees and teas anyways hit the spot. Pair that with my love of pistachio, and you've got a match made in heaven. This place looks ethnic, modern and clean. There's a painting of a woman on the wall who stares over us as we eat cake. We were lucky enough to come on a gloomy afternoon, my favorite a way to go to a coffee place. I tried a multitude of desserts, and they were all good. We also had four separate drinks, and they were all good. The cheesecake, milk cake and honeycomb bread were all good. The bathrooms were nice and clean. Overall- would definitely go here again!

The pistachio latte was not overpowering at all and you could definitely taste the nuttyness! Not overly sweet which is perfect for me! The pistachio mousse was very thick and rich. My party of friends all enjoyed sampling them both. Our group also tried their Mufawaar medium roast coffee with cardamom & cream (not shown) per the cashier's recommendation. We really did appreciate his rundown of the menu. However, the iced Mufawaar was VERY watery much to our disappointment. Very much everyone in my group's least favorite. The lotus milkcake (not shown) was delicious Interior I will say I was impressed at how big the space was. Very clean, ideal for some work / study. Beautiful patio outside if this Texas heat wasn't so terrible! Overall I have to give it a 4.2~/5. I think their cake selection is great along with their pistachio featured items

I got the Ham and Cheese croissant and the tiramisu latte with oat milk. The latte was the perfect amount of sweet and not over powering - loved it!

I've been craving Chai Latte and I haven't figured out a good blend to make at home. Most coffee…read moreshops' chai latte is too sweet or too much of a certain spice, but this one to me is perfect. Since I found the place, I've been back three consecutive days. I did try their turkey, cheese, and pesto croissant but something in it was too salty for my taste. The ingredients did taste super fresh however so I might just be sensitive. Their bread and pastries look amazing but I haven't caved on trying them yet. But every time I go in and look at them, I feel my willpower waning so I'll update once I give in. Oh and the owner is super nice. She always tells me to let her know if the chai is too sweet and she can adjust but it's always perfect.

Start…read morewith parking: they have a tiny lot in front of the coffee shop but it's always full (I've never found a spot there - ever). Good news is, you can park in the big parking lot on front of Hando's and walk from there. Not ideal when the weather sucks, but you don't really have a choice. And though the coffee shop's address is technically off Long Point, you can't see it from Long Point. It's on the other side of the shopping center. Google Maps does a good job showing you where the entrance is. The ambiance: I love how spacious the coffee shop is. There is plenty of seating and I appreciate that. The staff are also nice. Sometimes the line to order can get really long but that's because customers usually can't make up their minds. The menu is fairly extensive so pros and cons there. Now for the coffee: I've tried their speciality drinks, the hot brewed coffee, and flat white. They are all OK. Not bad but not great. Not enough strong coffee flavor in my opinion. Flavors are a little off but get the job done. Prices are fair - maybe a tad on the pricey side. Worth it if you're going to sit inside the coffee shop and get work done or meet up with friends. I would go here to meet with friends but not necessarily for the best coffee in town.
