I was on my way to meet up with some friends in Sugar Land one Sunday morning and I figured I should try some local coffee. This spot came recommended, so, I figured I would check it out
The coffee shop is tucked away behind some office buildings and situated just outside a residential area. The exterior is nothing flashy, but as I walked up I noticed several people enjoying their coffee outside and enjoying the beautiful Houston Spring weather
The exterior was chic and cozy. There is a variety of coffee types to try a you can order beans, merch, and other coffee items to the right when you walk in. There’s also a space in the back with machinery where they most likely do much of the coffee prep work and R&D. The order counter is simplistic, clean, and almost futuristic in vibe. There is plenty of indoor seating, but there were a bunch of people dining in and it made me feel a bit claustrophobic with most tables full, a bit of a line, and people waiting on their order. It’s not a huge space, and I wish I could have seen it more empty an chill. Either way it’s probably a great place to study or have a meet up with a friend or two
You can order pretty much any classic coffee drink or some of their signature offerings. For coffee lovers you will find a variety of beans and options to order from the Brew Bar menu. They have hot, iced, sweet, and coffee-forward drinks. There’s also plenty of pastries or bites you can order. There are small menus at the front of the line and no big menu at or behind the register. Their website doesn’t provide an easy way of locating their menu so I had to wait until I was towards the front of the line to get a menu, and that is a pet peeve of mine, because then I feel rushed to order
The staff were fine. Not overly friendly or pleasant. I would say everyone was professional and focused. I will say I only ordered a flat white and it took longer (probably twice as long or more) than any other coffee spot I’ve been to. While that would irk me slightly as I was in a rush, I’m torn on this place because it truly was some of the best coffee I’ve ever had. Their portions aren’t very big, but the flavor will satisfy your tastebuds
Some tips:
See if you can grab a little menu from the front to bring with you to the back of the line. Again, I only tried the flat white, and I’m a huge flat white fan… this is probably my favorite one in the Houston area
Cheers!!
