    the counter of a coffee shop
    Jasmine L.

    Was craving something to drink while walking around the mall. The stand wasn't too busy when I walked up to order, and the employees were happy, energetic, and nice! Got a matcha latte with almond milk, and it was great. Store was very clean and organized. There are also plenty of tables in the hallway to sit and relax. The tables were clean and plentiful.

    My experience here was very peaceful and encouraging. Miranda and Rose where very helpful and super positive. I was observing there customer service and gave me so much joy to see great people truly enjoy there job. My coffee and cheese danish was super delicious

    Not to be confused with Storebought, which is what most of the products sold here taste like. This is the Starbucks at the massive Mall down in Friendswood (Baybrook), in the inside (older) section. They'll get your stuff out to you quickly and generally they're friendly, although there is one specific employee who is not, and we've had him on 2 separate occasions. Very expensive for the drinks, and the lattes absolutely destroy my stomach. I don't know what PSL is supposed to be but it tastes awful. In fact a lot of the products here taste iffy and get to my tummy, as they are very high on the cream content, processed AF, and dairy AF, and I just don't think it's a very good quality coffee chain. But if you like the strong awful-tasting better, then maybe this is for you.

    Good mall location. This spot is seldom crowded and always well-staffed. My favorite is a Grande Iced Almond-milk Caramel Macchiato. Can't go wrong!

    Had a nice experience at this Starbucks despite my family's complicated and indecisive order.. cashier was quirky, kind and patient.

    Terrible service. Unfriendly baristas. Non functioning machines. Arrogant attitudes. That about sums it up.

    I frequent the Clear Lake area pretty often and just discovered the & Brew Coffee off El Dorado…read more I've seen them around town but never got a chance to check them out until recently. I just got done with a lunch date nearby and needed a little pick me up to finish my errands. I'm assuming all their locations are similar in that this place is a drive thru or walk up concept. I almost drove past because the drive thru line spilled out into the road but then I saw they had two lanes moving at a pretty rapid pace. Just from what I saw, it seemed like the whole staff was young, high school kids, but they were working hard. They had multiple people walking the lines with an iPad taking orders and keeping traffic flowing. I explained it was my first time so the young lady gave a quick run down of some of their popular items and asked what flavor profiles I like. The line moved quick and I liked that they took the time to wipe down each drink before handing it over so there was no mess. Great customer service. I ended up ordering the Cookie Butter iced coffee. The flavors of this coffee included toasted marshmallow, hazelnut and white chocolate breve. I like a breve because you get a creamier drink. The flavors worked well together and I really enjoyed my drink. I typically like a more coffee forward drink, but every once in awhile I like a dessert like drink. This was that. 7 Brew is one of many like chains in the area so competition is high out here. In my opinion, this place has a slight edge over the other places in that they have a great variety of drinks and great customer service. I will most definitely be back.

    11:40am 5/9/26…read more Location was busy, but line was moving. Car in front of us had nearly every staff member come up and visit and talk, which delayed our line a bit. Finally next in line pick up our drinks, still behind the same car. Even more staff comes out to talk to the person in the car, they were given their drink, but continued to sit there holding up the line. Staff finally brings us our drinks, I asked "is this person going to move or are we going to have to go around them?" The staff said the person in the car worked there so everyone was just saying hi. They did not prompt the person in the car to move, just continued sitting there. The franchise owner should be embarrassed of their staff.

    I can only speak of the coffee because that is all I have had, but it has been excellent each time…read more I live in Galveston for school but often have to travel to League City or Clear Lake, and I get excited thinking about Millie being close enough to grab a coffee. I've had the viet iced coffee, viet iced latte, and the ube coffee. All of them have been the perfect ratio of bitterness of the viet coffee balanced by the sweet condensed milk. The ube one was a little bit too sweet for my liking, but the flavor was excellent, I love a good cold foam on my coffee. My only concern is that the drinks are pricey, but to be honest, what coffee shop/cafe isn't these days. Appreciate the ambiance, but it can be busy at times or too loud to get work done. Have brought friends here who have also really liked the suggestion. Service has always been quick for me. This cafe will continue to be a staple my last year in the city!

    My niece just moved into the area so naturally we went to go look for a good cafe. This was a cute…read morespot with lots of seating and bright lighting. The young lady taking our order was just passing for friendly. The rest of the staff was young and sort of loud and unprofessional while making orders. I usually don't care, have fun at work, but it was a bit off putting. The drinks were good. We ordered matchas, coffees, and fruit teas. The food, however, was a pass. We ordered two different banh mi, hep quay and thap cam. Overpriced and just underwhelming. The spicy tuna sandwich was not good. The only thing that tasted decent were the spring rolls. They came mini sized and were fun to eat. Definitely will come back for the drinks!

The cookie was baked to soft perfection. I went with a friend who thankfully knew to join the waitlist about an hour before we planned to arrive, which made the wait very manageable. Had we not known that important little tip, we probably would've been waiting close to an hour. Overall, it was such a pleasant experience, and I'd definitely go back again.

    Let me preface this review by stating that I have been to this establishment multiple times & had…read moreglowing, amazing service each time. However, my last experience with this establishment left a horrible taste in my mouth. Therefore, I am giving them an extra star for the previous experiences. On May 17th, 2026, my best friend and I had been looking forward to coming to Water Oak all day and had our taste buds set for the occasion. We were famished and had quite a day up until arriving. Upon entering the restaurant, we were very briefly greeted by the a Hispanic man who I assume is the manager and told that they were "no longer seating for the day". I glanced around and saw that every table inside WAS seated, however there were many tables outside that were empty. I asked about the patio stating that us where we preferred to sit anyway, and was met with that they were also not seating the patio at all for the rest of the day. However, there was a group of 3 women seated outside on the patio at that exact time. I didn't say anything, simply turned and left. After having "one of those days" hashing out something so minute with a person who clearly didn't want us in their place of business was not something I was about to do. Keep in mind, we came on a Sunday afternoon. Prime brunch time. We arrived at the restaurant around 2:30PM, and their website says they don't close until 4PM. I am a biracial black woman and my friend is white. I noticed a significant amount of White and Latino patrons, but a shocking lack of Black people. With Houston having one of the most diverse populations in the US, it is almost impossible not to see at least one individual of each ethnicity in a place at any given time. I am definitely not one that likes to pull the race card, because oftentimes that is not the issue. However, as someone who is familiar with the service industry I understand Sundays can be extremely overwhelming. And I am cognizant that not everything is that serious. But, I am also aware that a lot of people in the industry discriminate against people of color, with stigmas that we don't leave enough gratuity or we "don't fit the vibe of their establishment". And those 3 women seated on the patio? All White. After reading recent reviews, it seems that management is discriminating against people of color, more specifically Black folks. This is an extremely disheartening and sickening realization to make, seeing as I have given well over $1,000 worth of my money here but also enjoyed many meals without issue. To management: It breaks my heart to have to write this review and to be honest, I wouldn't have written it if I hadn't seen others posting about similar experiences in addition to also feeling discriminated against. I highly suggest that if you are "not seating" after a specific time, you announce this via social media or alert potential patrons with a sign or something of the sort. & obviously, there is such an issue with treatment towards POC that it is a noteworthy problem via your Google & Yelp reviews. You will have a much bigger fish to fry on your hands if you continue to let this issue go on unrectified. I would be willing to return if I felt things were to be changed for the better in the future! Hopefully this review sparks a much needed conversation and brings attention to an area which needs work.
