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.

Plenty of seating inside and outside, including tables and benches. Coffee was great. We ordered an iced americano, with homemade vanilla syrup, and a biscoff cookie butter iced latte.

This was a nice find today when shopping in mercantile heights.

Parking was tight as expected for that part of town,…read morebut I got lucky and was able to nab the last available spot in the parking lot adjacent to the building on a Saturday morning around 9:15 am. Barista/cashier was nice and I had no issue with her at all. Seating was open and decently spacious. The flat white I ordered was $5 + tax and tip which isn't too pricey, the volume was on the small side, and the taste was OK - nothing great but certainly not bad either. So why the 2 star review? The place was severely understaffed for a Saturday morning. They only had one staff member who was doing all the work like taking orders and making the drinks, so it took 20 minutes in line to order, and the drink took another 30 minutes. I went there to meet with a friend, and we were done meeting by the time we got our drinks. I ended up asking for it in a to-go cup and the presentation was underwhelming at that point, to say the least. Can you imagine waiting almost an hour for a coffee? No thank you. It was worth a shot and I guess I went on a bad day. Unfortunately it was my first and last time trying this place as the whole experience was underwhelming. I would have tried it again if the coffee flavor was great.

No photos as, well, there are enough photos of coffee cups on Yelp. Plenty of parking and that is a plus.

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.

I'll definitely be back to get my hands on one next time. In the meantime, the chorizo and egg breakfast taco absolutely delivered. The flour tortilla tasted fresh and authentic, soft with just the right chew. And the lemon cake? A total sleeper hit -- bright, moist, and the perfect sweet bite to finish everything

I tried six drinks in total: Island Latte, Mont Blanc, Matcha Latte, Cream Americano, Black Island, and Delight Matcha. I ordered everything hot except the Delight Matcha, which came as an iced slushy and was super refreshing. Each drink had its own personality, but the Island Latte stole the show for me. Made with espresso, coconut milk, and pandan, it had a smooth tropical twist that I could drink every day. The Mont Blanc was rich and earthy, combining charcoal, espresso, and milk. The Matcha Latte kept it classic with just matcha and milk, and the Cream Americano delivered exactly what it promised with a nice balance of bold and sweet. The Black Island had a deeper flavor with a subtle hint of pandan flavor that paired well with the charcoal. Parking is fairly easy, either on the street or in the visitor section of the garage. As someone who takes coffee seriously, I can honestly say this is one of my favorite coffee spots in Houston. Creative drinks, good vibes, and a great place to explore unique flavors.
