There is a drive through you must go between the florist shop and the coffee shop. There is no menu board to see what you might want, you have to go to the drive through window to see the options they have available. When you get to the window, a smiling face is waiting to take your order and show their offerings. They do give you suggestions if you have trouble choosing. There are no prices so you'll have to ask. I ordered the Fighting Bulldog and asked to get it blended, it was very tasty. I also requested the cinnamon cheese muffin that everyone has said is super tasty and they warm the muffin up by the way "SO GOOD!" This is a great little coffee shop you can go inside and sit down if you'd like. There is limited parking up front, people have been known to park in the past. I wish they had a menu board to look at along with knowing what is the price before buying, I had no idea what I was paying for my drink until I found my email with the receipt. You can find them on Google Maps but not much anywhere else. If you've ever paid via Square that's how you'll get your ticket.

I came specifically for…read moretheir staples, the breakfast croissant sandwich and the breakfast tacos, and they did not disappoint. Both were fresh, flavorful, and absolutely worth the visit. I also tried the peach mango smoothie, which was perfectly refreshing. The carrot cake was decent, though it seemed like it might be outsourced. That said, the quality of the main food items more than makes up for it. The ambiance of the coffee shop is warm and inviting, and the customer service was excellent from start to finish. Overall, this spot still earns a solid five stars for its consistently great food and welcoming atmosphere!

Typically when I have a bad experience with a company, I improve my communication in the future and…read moreif all else fails I just pick another place. However, it is obvious that the person that started Barbarossa has a great vision, and we have been going since they were just about to open their second shop. The owner provides above average products yet sadly it is almost always ruined by the incompetence of the hired staff. So I will be sharing my experience today, as well as the pattern of the most baffling interactions I have had over the last year. Today, my partner ordered the breakfast bagel (this comes with avocado), I ordered a croissant with only eggs over hard (this doesn't come with avocado according to their menu). Also it is necessary to ask for eggs over hard otherwise the egg whites will be oozing off your croissant. And I mean this with full disrespect because while cooking is a skill that requires development. How. On. Earth. Do you serve someone a raw egg? It is clearly visible, you don't need a food thermometer, it might literally be the simplest thing to cook. You can practice at home for next to nothing! When you ask for eggs for hard here, they will be close to over medium if you're lucky. Today, since they put avocado on my partners bagel I guess they decided to just add it to mine because why not? Well why not is because it's not on the menu, and I did not ask for it and I'm paying for the item I asked for. Not your random remix. Additionally, every time I order, I make sure to specify I want my matcha UNSWEET. Every time they say "ma'am it doesn't come with sweetner" and I hold my tongue because I know well enough if I don't say that, they add SWEETNER. And since my husband ordered this morning and didn't say unsweet, my Matcha ended up sweet. Once? Fine. Twice? Everyone makes mistakes. It's a drink idc. But every single time unless the customer specifies? Are these people being trained? Do they have the capacity to be trained? And sure you might be thinking wow that's harsh. So I shall share a previous experience. I wanted to purchase a lanyard, we all know a lanyard is about 20 inches long right? Well I asked to buy a lanyard in the drive thru, I was told they didn't sell lanyards, not that they were out of stock. No according to this employee they don't sell them, never have. Mind you I had just seen it in the store a few days earlier. I'm not one to argue so I acted as if it were my mistake. A few days later I stopped inside to see if they had any left in store. They had several, I took it to the register and asked to purchase the lanyard. She said "you mean our dog leashes!" ........... I thought she was pulling a little joke. She wasn't. I'm sorry have you seen someone walk a dog? Have you ever seen a dog leash shorter than 2 feet? Have you ever seen a dog? She genuinely begins to argue with me because she can't find the button for dog leashes in the system. (DUH girl! Because the company you work at doesn't sell dog leashes. How do I know that and you don't?) The manager walked over and chose the LANYARD button to which this young lady says snarkily "oh I guess it is a lanyard". The manager looked bewildered at her and I thought surely he will now realize how lacking his staff is. However that wasn't the case. So I beg. Please train them. Fire them. Replace them with robots please. I don't care. I'm even happy to give them gentle instruction on how to do their job if you'll at least teach them not to talk back. Don't assume they know what a lanyard, or a croissant, or a cup is because it just might be to the failure of your company. Bonus: a lot of these kids seem to not know that the source of sugar is what they call "flavoring" :) If I don't want sugar, it feels like common sense that I don't want vanilla with sugar in it?

That's exactly why this visit to the Spring location was so disappointing. When I first arrived, there was nobody at the register, which already set the tone for the visit. What should have been a quick stop then turned into over an hour. I ordered a smoothie and breakfast tacos, and even the smoothie took a while to come out. I finished the entire drink before my food even arrived. After about 30 minutes, I checked in with the staff and was told it was due to "miscommunication" and that someone was new, while the person who took my order was in the back on the phone. I had to repeat my order multiple times, specifically asking for no hot sauce and no salad. Despite that, after another 15 minutes, the tacos finally came out incorrect, with both hot sauce and a salad, and they were lukewarm, not hot. To make matters worse, the smoothie itself wasn't properly blended. What stood out most is that they weren't particularly busy, just a light morning crowd. I've been to the Tomball location when it was much busier, and the service there was still fast and attentive, which set a high expectation. Overall, the experience didn't match the premium pricing. I truly hope this location improves, but based on this visit, I wouldn't return to this one.

Why 5 stars? Because both of our drinks were awesome…read more --- --- --- I stop at a lot of coffee shops, but it's one thing I don't usually review. I drink black coffee, and to be honest, most black coffee is pretty much the same, no matter where you get it. I feel like I'm writing a review just for the sake of writing it: "I got another black coffee. It tasted like black coffee. Hooray." But in this game, my coffee was extra enjoyable, and my wife's was great too. I almost didn't want to come here because they did not have a cold brew or a nitro on the menu. So I asked for an iced americano instead, and the barista asked if I would like some alternate thing that I hadn't heard of. She explained that it basically just made the coffee seem more like a nitro. Easy answer: yes. I still don't know what it was called, but it rocked. The flavor of the beans were excellent too. My wife ordered a mango matcha drink, which was perfect. I took more than just my standard tasting sip because I really loved it. She did too. While we waited, we sat at a table and played taco cat goat cheese pizza with our son. They have several games available here for people to play. It made the experience more fun. The funny thing is, we expected to walk in to a place with no one inside because the parking situation was weird, but it didn't appear anyone was inside because there were no cars around. We were very surprised to see 10+ customers hanging out, playing games and/or waiting for their drinks to be made. Cool spot and definitely one we will come back to next time we are in need of caffeine in Tomball.

We stopped by just for coffee after taking my little one to the dentist next door, but I'd love to come back and try the food sometime. Service was friendly, and the staff made sure our drinks were prepared and served quickly. I've heard good things about this place, but unfortunately, the drinks didn't live up to the hype. The mocha frappe was overly sweet, and the sweet matcha tasted like iced sweet milk with a hint of green. It lacked the distinct flavor and color of real matcha.

Kafeina Kafe isn't just another neighborhood coffee shop; it's a beautifully executed example of…read morewhat modern café culture can be when passion and precision meet intention. From the moment you step inside, it's clear this team operates with a level of care that's increasingly rare. The flavors, the craftsmanship, and the atmosphere all work together so seamlessly that you find yourself wanting to linger long past whatever plans you had. The espresso and coffee program is genuinely exceptional. They treat coffee as an art form, not a commodity. The espresso lands with a velvety crema and a balance of dark chocolate depth and bright acidity that feels perfectly dialed in. Whether it's a classic macchiato or a pour‑over, the execution is consistently thoughtful and technically sound. One note worth mentioning: their chai lattes are made using a concentrate. It's a common choice in cafés, and while it doesn't diminish the overall beverage program, it's helpful context for guests who prefer house‑brewed spice profiles. Everything else on the drink menu reflects a high level of care and consistency. Where Kafeina Kafe truly shines is in the kitchen. The pastries are fresh, flaky, and clearly baked with intention -- that rare crisp‑but‑tender balance that signals real skill. The savory menu is equally impressive, turning daytime staples into memorable dishes. The avocado toast, for example, is vibrant, well‑seasoned, and served on bread that actually supports the toppings instead of collapsing under them. Every ingredient feels chosen, not just used. The ambiance ties everything together. The design blends industrial chic with warm, organic comfort, and the natural light transforms the space throughout the day. Seating is intuitive, offering cozy corners for solo work and open tables for conversation. Even the acoustics and playlist feel curated -- present enough to energize the room, soft enough to let conversations breathe.

I was recovering from a cold so I decided to order a hot herbal tea and was happy to see that they had such a huge selection of loose leaf teas to choose from. My friend also got one of their lattes and we couldn't resist getting a tiramisu before leaving. Overall, we liked everything and I think this place is worth a visit for that Kafeina latte. - Kafeina Latte (4/5): The lady told us that this latte was half white chocolate and half pistachio and we could definitely tastes both flavors. I really liked how they put a lot of pistachio pieces in the drink, giving it a crunchy texture. This drink is definitely on the sweeter side though, so keep that in mind. - Nutty Almond Cream Cinnamon Herbal Tea (4/5): I was very happy with the flavor of this tea. Like the name suggest, it tasted very almond-y and had a good amount of cinnamon flavored. There was also a tangy fruity flavor that followed and reminded me of spiced cider. - Tiramisu (4.5/5): I was really impressed with their tiramisu. The mascarpone layer was very nice and custardy, yet felt so light and refreshing. I also loved how strong the coffee flavor was which helped balance out the dessert and made it not too sweet. Service/Ambiance: Upon entering, I was really surprised by how pretty the interior was with the mixture of gold and wood. I'm not sure how pack this place usually gets because I came at an off time ( like 1 pm), but they had a good amount of tables and seating available. I did see a handful of people studying, so I think this would be a good quiet study spot.

The shop has such a great atmosphere. Half of the space is a cozy coffee shop, while the other half is dedicated to roasting their beans in-house, which makes the experience feel even more special. I ordered the Honey Vanilla Iced Latte with oat milk, and my husband got the Caramel Iced Latte. Both drinks were absolutely amazing! You can really taste the quality of the beans, and it shows how much care goes into every cup. I also loved that most of their syrups are made in-house. Even watching them prepare matcha using a scale shows the level of precision and craftsmanship they put into their drinks. I also had the pleasure of meeting Chris, the owner, and Miguel, the barista. I recently bought an espresso machine and asked Chris for a few tips on pulling a great shot of espresso. He really knows his stuff and was incredibly helpful! I ended up buying a bag of their freshly roasted beans, and I can't wait to try them at home. If you're looking for exceptional coffee made with high-quality ingredients and genuinely passionate people, I highly recommend checking this place out. I'll definitely be becoming a regular!
