Catalina Coffee - Review - Sixth Ward - Houston - The Infatuation
"Despite being open for over 15 years, Sixth Ward’s Catalina Coffee consistently remains the busiest coffee shop in town. No matter what time of day, a steady stream of folks zip in and out for espresso to go, bags of Amaya Coffee (Catalina’s sister roastery), and whatever pastries aren’t yet sold out. Unlike many other cafes that see free wifi as a necessity, Catalina has never and likely will never set up wifi. And that’s how everyone seems to like it. Look around the shop and people are—gasp!—talking to each other. No phones out, just living in the moment (sort of). We appreciate Catalina’s dedication to analog human interaction, the absolutely superb coffee and espresso, and the friendly and quick baristas that keep the line lively and moving. Grab a cup to go and maybe take some time to linger on the small side patio before engaging with technology again." - Chelsea Thomas
