    what the drink looked like..

    i love going to this place but oh my gosh have they disappointed me. i ordered the caramel chocolate shake and it tasted and looked like water. this is about the third time this has happened and its always the same guy making the drink.

    Dirty Brown Sugar Milk Tea

    Drinks are pretty good. They offer board games in the back. Nice and quiet on weekdays. Medium size groups of 4-6 people can enjoy sitting and chatting. However, the tables are small. If you wanted to study as a group or play elaborate games where you need a larger table, you would need to push the tables together. (Obviously, don't be a d*ck and push them back afterwards.) STUDY Fast, free reliable wifi. The wifi password is upfront where you order. There's plenty of outlets to charge your devices.

    Plenty of parking and nearby lotsa food places like ramen, Korean corn dogs, sandwich shops. The space is big and allows for sitting and hanging out. There's a shelf with board games. Clean bathrooms. Consistent boba tea and friendly owners. We came on Rex's birthday party.

    Matcha Tea Latte

    Very clean establishment, nice service, refreshing matcha green tea latte! I finished mine quick, I should've gotten a large. Definitely beats Starbucks. Nothing more or less to say, I'd recommend and visit again.

    Terribly sad service. Wanted to try out the new boba place but we left disappointed. We ordered a milk tea and passion fruit slush & a cheesecake that was given to us when we paid. We waited 40 mins for our order to be called for our drinks. We thought it was normal because everyone else was waiting too. After a while I noticed the place started to clear up. I finally went up to the counter to ask & the young lady with glasses asked for my receipt. When she saw my receipt she told me it had been ready but she thought it was missing an item (cheesecake). The slush had melted and my milk tea had separated. We were sitting right in front of the counter. She could've said something! NEVER AGAIN.

    Great atmosphere, drinks, and staff! Definitely a great place to work or study with tons of outlets and light. Try their dirty brown sugar milk tea and a matcha bubble waffle (with a side of milk foam ;))

    Stopped at Karma next door and came here to get a drink. It's new so I wanted to try it out. I got the lemon ai Yu white pearl drink. It was light and refreshing. I didn't know what the ai yu jelly was, so I asked and they offered me a sample. It was a light gelatin, a little softer than jello. I'm not sure how to fully describe it, but I ended up getting the drink it's featured in. The drink had the jelly, white boba pearls (I think it was the same as crystal boba at other places) and a lemon syrup. There were pieces of lemon in the syrup. It was a water based drink, so the syrup was the main flavor. It was like a next level lemonade. They had a few games you could take to a table and play. It's a pretty good sized dining area for a tea shop. I went on the weekend of lunar new year and they were giving red envelopes with surprise coupons inside. I'm happy to see more diverse places opening up closer to my house. I'll definitely be back.

    I was really craving boba tea so I came here. The people at the register took a while to take my order because they were more focused on their conversation even though I was right in front of them. I got a milk tea and it spilled because it wasn't sealed all the way. I called and explained the situation and thankfully they were able to give me another one but when I got home and tried the milk tea it wasn't good quality. It tasted like pure milk and it was bitter, not sweet at all. I should've just went to M tea.

    This is my second time here and the first was for the Lunar New Year's event. It's really cozy location, the staff is very kind and make your orders in a fashionable time! They provide free wi-fi and have several outlets if you need to charge your phone or anything else- this place would really be a great studying space. In the back they provide a few card and board games to play with if you plan to stick around longer with friends and/or family Their drinks are amazing and what I had so far (Peach Yogurt Drink w/ Star Jelly and Cool Mint Milk Tea w/ Pearls) did not disappoint me at all!

Now we live over 30 minutes away and still try to find an excuse to justify driving that far just for our favorite coffee. That should tell you how good it is. We've come to learn that all of our favorite coffee shops are Italian. They just do coffee better. Nothing beats a shakerato, NOTHING. My husband and I came to grab a coffee here on Saturday and then we headed 5-ish minutes down the road to Home Depot. By the time he got back to the car, I had already finished my large coffee. I said "Hey, we have adult money, and we live far away, can we go through the drive thru and grab me another one?" And so, we did. My go to order is a large vanilla shakerato with espresso cream. It is glorious. It is beautiful. It really gives you the umph you need to get through the day. I've yet to try them, but everything in their pastry case looks fresh and delicious. The cafe is very warm and inviting. There are always people hanging around and chatting or working. This is just the epitome of cozy coffee shop. It's truly my favorite in Houston.

They put the roast date on every bag and a lot of other info like how they were processed, washed and organic. They even have the elevation on the bag.

They supply coffee and stuff to a few places you've heard of, Black Walnut, Goode & Co., Uncle Bean's, etc. There are a lot of friendly knowledgeable people who work here and they seem to enjoy it. One of them even made a stellar to go cup of hot cappucino for me, nice foam artwork. We'll order on line after we finish this bag of beans, it's easier...we enjoyed scoping out this place though.

Both were exceptionally good. The shop is a little off the beaten path, but easy to find and beautiful inside. The employee at the front desk was very friendly and helpful when I showed up unannounced to buy some coffee. According to their Instagram, they offer tours and tastings by appointment, which I plan to do in the near future. They also suggest calling ahead to order your coffee so it will be ready when you pick it up. I recommend doing that because I did have to wait a little while when I popped in to order. I have been brewing the Columbian grounds at home for my bulletproof coffee with ghee, coconut oil, collagen, and stevia and I swear it tastes like brownie batter. I have never had a more smooth, balanced flavor from a roasted coffee bean in my life. I will continue to purchase coffee beans and grounds from Geva as long as they exist and I will always support any coffee shop who brews their coffee as well.

It's very filling, not really like a drink but more like a very good dessert that 2 people can even share. So much jelly in there that other drinks get jelly. And if you're just here to try and get with Barbi, then you're looking to "bang boo". But that's okay as long as you're female, or if you're male, you don't get too much Bambu, lest you end up with "Manbu" oobs.

But on a later visit, the customer service was disappointing. The employee taking our order was distracted and chatting with coworkers, and our order was entered incorrectly. When we politely pointed it out, there was no effort to fix the mistake or even acknowledge it--just pushback and a lack of professionalism. Another visit closer to closing time was even more frustrating. The floor had just been mopped with no warning sign, which is a safety concern. When we tried to order, we were told multiple items were already put away, and it felt like we were inconveniencing them just by being there--even though it was still well before closing. Overall, the atmosphere feels unwelcoming at times, and the customer service doesn't match what you'd expect. It's disappointing because the drinks themselves are good, but the experience makes it hard to want to come back.
