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.

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!

Stopped in here after treebeards and was very delighted by this place. What a cool little gem. Such…read morea great place to sit one on one and chat, study, or finish up some work on the computer. 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.

It was late in the day but the laidback decorated space was packed, music not too loud with a pleasant vibe. I asked if I could get the pistachio dream with oatmilk and the server recommended against it saying it would make the drink too sweet. I appreciated her honest advice and got the dragonfruit strawberry refresher instead. It was definitely refreshing with the perfect amount of ice to keep it cold but not water it down. I also tried one of the mini croissants which is probably what will keep me coming back. Flaky and full of high quality cheese and spices, I wish I had gotten two! I'll definitely come back at an earlier time since a lot of the pastries were sold out.

So glad I found this little gem of a coffee shop!…read more Ended up trying the London Fog - nice and frothy earl gray tea latte with lavender. Delicious! They have some unique drink options with a Vietnamese coffee twist. Service was fast with bet tree r prices than most coffee shops and a nice relaxed vibe.

Staff is friendly, ambiance is nice and quiet, froyo looked acceptable and seems to be popular…read morehere. Please do not get the Vietnamese coffee. 1st red flag should've been how fast it took them to finish both my orders (no actual fresh drip process like how it's made authentically) but the 2nd was the color of the coffee. U can just tell ur about to drink a whole lot of milk iykyk. I should've read reviews prior to my visit, so that's my bad! Wouldn't come back for coffee but prob froyo since its in the area and there aren't many froyo places around

This place was a hit! I was visiting from out of town and my host brought me here…read more Ambience, 10/10: the place was well kept, great music, and seemed to be well managed from the time I was there. I went on a weekend so it was busy, but it wasn't unbearable. They have a decent amount of outdoor seating which was nice. Staff, 10/10: no complaints here! They were extremely patient with me upon ordering when I had a lot of questions, even though there were people waiting behind me. They were informative, had great energy, and were also hustling to get people their orders as quickly as possible Food/Drinks, 10/10: As a vegan, coffee shops can be hit or miss, especially on the food. Having clearly labeled vegan options made it easy for me to have confidence with my choice (vegan all day). The bread was perfectly warm but not hard. Great flavor. I also asked for a matcha with strawberry puree & no foam to meet my dietary needs. It was delicious! The person I was with had no the smoked salmon avocado toast and what I recall to be the amazon cloud. She rated them both 10/10 with no hesitation. Very flavorful and refreshing. Overall this experience was 10/10 for both of us. It's a not so small coffee shop with diverse options, friendly staff, and a clean ambiance that makes me want to go back. Highly recommend.

It's been many many moons since I last visited this place. I recall it as a great spot for…read morebreakfast/brunch and caffeinated drinks but this visit, I was a little disappointed. The last time I was here, a server took our order. However, this time, after waiting for a looooong time at our table, I discovered that all ordering should be done at the counter. I like how open and spacious the place is but the booth seats were in poor condition, with extreme cracks and peeling pleather. Also, many of the tablets were dirty and I had to get up and ask for napkins to clean up the stains. Help was very limited during this visit. The baristas were engrossed in making drinks and didn't seem very friendly or eager to help with questions. On the bright side, the young gal who brought out our food and drinks was really nice and helpful. She even offered to spray down our table and wipe it clean for us after she saw how icky it was. There's a Pick 3 toasts for $24.95 option and we chose two smoked salmon toasts and one avocado toast. They were decently good. It was a nice light meal to share between two of us. However, the quality of the drinks has declined. The strawberry matcha used to be excellent but the flavor has lost its vibrancy. I would not order it again.

A pretty good use of space here and lovely Houston based space theming. There's not a ton of indoor…read morespace, but there's plenty of tables set up outside if you want to hang out here. 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.

I've been to Slowpokes 4 times and the experience has been generally consistent each time. 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.

Yet, my God their operating hours are definitely not for your average consumer since they open at 7am. Yet the service was great, the employees were kind and patient, and it was a cute set up! You can even get wine here. So it's not your average coffee shop. I won't lie I just might have to check them out for a spot to get some work done. As it's a nice set up here. Prices are fair as my friends decaf drink was around $7.

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!

Pistachio! I'm a sucker for pistachio so I had to try their pistachio mousse cake and pistachio…read morelatte. They were both fantastic! 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
