Citizens of Montrose is a vibrant Australian-inspired café where all-day brunch meets creative dishes, from indulgent banana bread French toast to spicy chorizo baked eggs, all served in a chic space that's perfect for a casual catch-up or a coffee date.
"This Australian-style cafe offers plenty of dishes inspired by the Down Under, including a vegemite flight; a spin on the classic brekkie platter with smashed avocado toast, poached eggs, chorizo baked beans, miso mushrooms, and roasted tomato; and a banana bread French toast that’s topped with a dollop of creamy mascarpone and a drizzle of miso butterscotch. Ordering a drink here is essential. With house-made cocktails, a smooth velvet beetroot latte, and an Australian iced coffee made with scoops of vanilla ice cream and shots of espresso, there’s something for everyone." - Brittany Britto Garley, Sean Hekmat

"Citizen’s converted farm truck looks even more pastoral next to Memorial Park’s native gardens. It’s a beacon for runners, joggers, and any dog who needs a pup cup full of whipped cream and a great excuse to slow down and admire Houston’s nature (yes, that exists). Citizen’s serves coffee, tea, refreshing build-your-own acai bowl, and just-sweet-enough popsicles. Everything you need after a weekend wandering around Eastern Glades. " - gianni greene, chelsea thomas
