I really liked this place. I got the with love and it was so good. The chocolate croissant was also really good. There's ample seating inside. The WiFi is only 2 hours per receipt, which to me makes sense. The only only thing I hated, it was freezing inside for me. Parking was ample in the lot.
I wanted to get some work done on my laptop. I ordered an iced mocha. A large one will set you back $7. You get two hours of free Wi-Fi. After two hours, you must purchase something to get access again. I didn't know they also have wine. I saw some folks at the bar sharing a bottle of wine and a charcuterie board. Bathrooms are co-ed. While the space is spacious, there were lots of folks with laptops and using the electrical outlets.
This is my favorite location of Slowpokes in the Houston area. The parking is easy, the space is good sized, & the staff is friendly. I like that there's beverages other than coffee on the menu (teas, lemonades, beer, and wine), along with snacks and some baked goods. The stools facing the windows are a nice spot to watch some cars go by. There are quite a few spots with outlets for those who need to charge up. I enjoy the atmosphere and it isn't overly noisy most days. They do a great job making my drinks whether iced or hot, and have a self-help water station too. A few of my must-have items while there include their flatbreads, danishes, and sandwiches. They also offer a small happy hour menu so be to sure to check it out! It's a good spot to enjoy some me time or meet up with a friend.
I had only been to the Slowpokes at Levy Park, and while I always had a positive experience at that location, this location is more convenient The exterior might not look like much, but as you enter the coffee shop you walk into a trendy and relaxing space. I love the decor, furniture, and art The staff are very skilled and friendly. You don't have to wait at the counter for your food/drinks. They give you a number, and they will bring out your order This is a perfect spot to chill, read a book, catching up with friends, or get some work done. The Slowpokes coffee shops are also very dog friendly and accommodating Their menu is big and clearly written behind the register and coffee bar. There are plenty of classic drinks, signature and seasonal offerings, as well as snack and breakfast items Some tips: The ube latte is always delicious. I also think they make one of the better flat whites in the city. If you're hungry, the everything bagel dog is very tasty Cheers!!
I got the ube vanilla latte and it was good! The flavors were subtle and if you're looking for something not too sweet, it is perfect for you. The vanilla was not as apparent so I would add an extra pump if you wanted more sweetness. The service was great and quick and I got a discount for being a healthcare worker! The inside was very chill and a great place to hang with friends.
Came here to study between exams this past rainy Tuesday. I'm going to admit it doesn't have much seating. The back wall has the single seating with the plugs with the rest of the place either being 4 tops or bar stool diner style seating. I ordered the honey latte and added vanilla. It was pretty good and so were the breakfast tacos. The breakfast tacos come as vegetarian but you can request to add bacon which I did and I requested the cilantro creama which was delicious. I just wish the sauce cup was larger. They bring the food out to you which is nice and they have self serve water cups. Now for the WiFi, your WiFi code is your order number and total and it's only good for two hours. After two hours you have to purchase something else to keep using it. They do have a lunch menu, a bar and cookies/pastries so this shouldn't be an issue to most. The music can be a little loud but otherwise I wasn't too bothered and was able to study and get what I needed done. The parking lot had plenty of parking as well
Really enjoyed my Monday morning being a slowpoke at Slowpokes. I love that no one rushes you out and you can enjoy your meal, coffee and get work done. The golden latte was very good with a nice balance between honey and cinnamon. The biscuit sandwich was crumbly and so soft. It really tasted like you were biting into a pillow. The spicy jam is a 10/10. All of the staff were really nice and the barista helped me choose my coffee and meal. He gave great recommendations.
Slowpokes has extensive options for coffee, tea, food, and other drinks. Although it was crowded, it was a nice spot to catch up with friends and study after school. My drink was prepared quickly and thoughtfully. I tried the cold brew with pumpkin cold foam - and it was great! Just as good or better than Starbucks.
If you find yourself in the West U area, this Slowpokes location is worth checking out if you're looking for a chill place to meet someone and chat or if you're looking to get work done. Service has always been friendly and they try to quickly get your orders out. One time I did ask to customize my bagel and they did it with no issues, so I'm grateful for that. :) I have tried their purple rain, which is basically an iced ube latte. When the right person makes it, it tastes great - good balance between ube and espresso. However I've had it one time where it didn't taste as good, so it depends on who makes it. The bagel wasn't terrible, but I'm from Jersey and I have high standards when it comes to bagels lol. I've only been here in the early morning for a quick coffee run so I can't really judge how their alcoholic drinks are or how all their food items taste. I do see that they have happy hour available starting at 4pm until close. They have rotating beers and some wine selections. Good amount of seating available, mostly bar chair seating. I love how there are little hooks under all the tables to hang anything you want to. There are games available to play with friends. Parking is decent however there are other businesses that may end up filling the spaces quickly. Overall, would recommend this coffee shop and happy to see locations growing across Houston.
Pretty chill spot Parking: The lot is a bit small but I was able to get a spot with no issue. Seating: There was plenty of seating but a lot of it was on taller stool-type chairs. Luckily there was one booth left with seats at normal height Food: I had the avocado flat bread. It was good but didn't blow my mind . I felt the same way about the iced latte I got Staff: I only interacted with the person who took my order and she was nice Overall this satisfied my need - a place to kill an hour and recharge - but really didn't make much of an impression on me. It was chill and quiet. Seemed like a good place to study read more

Got a ube vanilla latte decaf and tried my friends banana matcha. Both were good but I wouldn't come out of my way to get again. Private parking lot and plenty of seating. They have an alcoholic drink menu and happy hour, would be interested in trying those and their food items. read more

Great spot with good coffee! Typical prices you'd find nearby. Service is friendly & quick. Ambiance can be loud, but there are also plenty of people getting their work done (as I did) read more
I had never been to this location and it was a good choice for sure! The service overall pretty good; we were welcomed by the cashier when we came in and gave us suggestions to cater what we were craving at the moment. The ambiance and setting of the place was also great! Its a small place but really clean, decluttered, simple but welcoming. Background soft music but not like sleepy music lol The food was great too! We got the pomberry tea and slowpoke cream soda... both really good and refreshing; we also had the hummus plate (half price during happy hour) and it was very fresh, good flavor and very generous portion. The pricing for each item-portion was also fantastic. We are surely coming back! read more

Upscale trendy coffee shop downtown. Excellent wifi. It was very crowded around 11 and difficult to hear over the piped in music. Also features outside seating area. Breakfast biscuit and latte were delicious. read more

Service was great. Vibes and ambience were really good, including the music. They also had plenty of seating for working or hanging out. I went for a Matcha latte with oat milk and sf vanilla syrup, iced. This was my first time here, so I was giving it a try because I really had a taste for a Matcha. Although they had really nice service, the Matcha was not good. Honestly it just tasted like oat milk that happened a to be green. I hate that I wasted my money on it. I'm a matcha connoisseur and this just missed the mark. I'm not a coffee drinker, so I was excited to try it but that didn't go as planned either. Great service though! read more

Peeps. I checked them out last night. Staff was real cool and the set up reminds me of a college coffee shop. The coffee was fresh. My wishlist: That they stayed open later, had love seats and couches, less hard chairs and stationary tables, and dropped the lights a little. But. Check them out and tell them #Pkast sent you. read more

I got the rose-pistachio latte and it was delicious. It is on the sweeter end (which they warned me about and so I asked for slightly less sweet) which may be why I don't necessarily get too much rose or pistachio flavor... but great coffee. I got the milk switched to almond milk which was an additional $1. The bagel dog was a great snack that complimented the coffee. Service was prompt and I got my coffee right away. Ambiance is really nice with lots of seating available to do work/read/hang out. read more

Welcoming and fun atmosphere that's not over the top. Fun yet peaceful lunch with a great nitro cold brew and a delicious craft sandwich, the BST. Service was fast, friendly, and professional. There's even board games if you plan to stay for a while. I'll be back next time I'm in town! read more

I have been here a few times and even though the shop is usually empty, it takes forever to get my drink. The lattes here taste watered down and aren't as good as other Slowpokes locations. I ordered kolaches and noticed HAIR on them right when I looked in the bag. This is so unsanitary and disgusting. I had to throw away my food. read more

Great atmosphere for studying, the playlist here is good too. Ube latte was surprisingly very good. Since it's a root plant, i didn't expect much sweetness from it, but it gives the coffee and sweet, unique flavor to the latte, would recommend giving it a try. A thing to consider is that you need to purchase something in order to access the wi-fi, and there is a 2 hr time limit to use it. This could be a con, but it seemed to help me be more productive and get more work done. Overall, if you're looking for a place w decent amount of seating, good coffee, quiet chatter and music, and to be productive, you should try this place out. read more

First time visiting a Slowpokes location and I was very impressed. The coffee is great, and I love the overall vibe of the place. Can't wait to come back to try other options. Also, I really appreciated the barista giving me their personal recommendation. I liked the white rabbit latte I got (strawberry and white mocha seasonal menu item). read more

The coffee was great, and service was quick. The place is pretty nice and on theme with the slowpokes name. The only downside is that the wifi only works for two hours and make sure to keep your receipt to connect to it. This makes it a less ideal coffee shop to study or do work in. read more
