You can order coconut milk with your coffee--that easily deserves six stars! -- The Service: Fantastic and friendly. The barista went out of he way to give me great suggestions on the coffee and taco options I didn't even know were available. -- The Atmosphere: They offer both indoor and outdoor seating. I opted for the indoor seating since this is Houston... and it's August. I had the pleasure of meeting the owners, who are incredibly nice and hospitable. I told them they need to open up a location in West U. I will definitely be back. We'll discuss their West U expansion over coffee.

It was served with a side of raspberry jam that complemented the sandwich very well for a sweet and savory combination. The scrambled eggs were more flavorful than probably any scrambled eggs I've ever had at a restaurant. I also ordered the horchata with a shot of espresso, as I heard that was pretty popular, but it was just okay. It wasn't too packed at 9:30 on a Saturday, and the outside seating was really pleasant. I would definitely come back.

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!

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.

A free Sunday saw an opportunity to meet with friends at Native. Coffee roaster is District, a…read moreroaster in Tomball. They are a good roaster. And so, I enjoyed my Americano, served in a cup. I opted for a sandwich for reasons too complex to go in here and the one that I chose was the Westheimer bacon and avocado. The flat bread was good and it is a sandwich that I would order again. No photos as, well, there are enough photos of coffee cups on Yelp. Plenty of parking and that is a plus. There is a possibility to sit outside in the shade but it is still hot in the summer here in Houston.

What we received was room temp at best, milk foam was very loose with nothing but huge bubbles (not silky at all) and no latte art that is the norm.

I absolutely loved the vibe - it was welcoming and community touches all around. For example a little "take a book" wall, plant propagation exchange station, and some items for sale including a book one of their baristas wrote. How cool! And the COFFEE - this is somewhere where you can really taste the craft. Fantastic Ethiopian house blend. We also tried some pastries and the cornbread cookie (SO good). Decently busy on a Sunday morning, though easy parking in the lot. Enough light energy to either work/study or chat with a friend. Can't wait to go again.

I especially enjoyed being here sitting in the comfy chairs with my friend sipping the freshly brewed coffee and some delicious pastries. I first learned about this place was because of the OutSmart Magazine's annual recognition. People chose Cleo Coffee as the Gayest and Greatest Readers Choice Award, along with the other business Cleo Roasting Co. The best time to come by is commute hours and Sunday afternoon. I could usually find space to sit and park. I usually buy the freshest roasted beans and ask them to grind them for me. So, I can take them home to brew at my house. I'm here frequently to buy my freshly roasted coffees.

I recently paid a visit to Paper Co. Cafe after making plans to come down to Houston. As soon as I…read moredid, I had to let fellow friend and Yelp Elite Tiffany know so we could catch up! We decided to meet at Paper Co. Cafe since it would be a new place to check out for both of us, and seemed like a great place to meet over coffee in the afternoon. At first when I arrived, I wasn't sure if I had arrived in the right place! Parking was indeed at what seemed like the back of the building, but that's where the entrance was for the cafe. There was a lot of seating areas inside, including private rooms, well-lit areas with long tables, and an area that was made to feel cozy with couches and plush chairs. I wish there had been more food options, as I had to opt for a pre-packaged oat bar as a sweet snack. Would have been nice if they had cookies or something! For my drink, I had a matcha tea latte, made lightly sweetened at my request and with oat milk. Overall, we found the space a great place to sit down for a casual meet-up. It wasn't too loud or crowded, but perhaps these are factors that would make it favorable as a co-working space.

Even though we ended up at the wrong one, we still got to enjoy some amazing coffee. We got the iced Cortadillo Latte and it was truly amazing!! From this experience we can't wait to come back and try the coffee flights at the other location! The Iced Cortadillo Latte was cute with sprinkles, deliciously rich in flavor, with an amazing cold foam, you could actually taste all the ingredients listed in the description, and the customer service was superb as well. They also have a drive thru and a nice outdoor seating area, which makes it a great spot to enjoy your coffee. The only downside is the parking. There isn't a dedicated parking lot, so you'll need to use the limited street parking alongside the coffee shop. The spaces are tight since it's located in a residential neighborhood, but if you can find a spot, it's definitely worth the visit. We most definitely recommend and will be returning!
