Grinder's Coffee Bar

I got a strawberry kiss matcha and a matcha with sugar free vanilla and both were so good! I also got a croissant that had everything seasoning on top and a goat cheese filling that was also delicious. I’ll definitely be coming back!

Love to come here for drinks and sweet treats. You can place order inside or ahead on the website. The drinks taste fresh and so do the baked goods.

2 stars because the matcha flavor is good. BUT! I seen that they don’t clean their matcha bowl or whisk after each use. The matcha also has slight clumps still which should not. Whisking should be up to 1 minute in “M” formation, she did it in 15 seconds “O” formation 🙃

Awsm coffee and giant delish pastries I got the Chocolate Diesel and Cherry Turnover 🍒🍫 The drink was the perfect sweetness and very creamy, amazing experience. The seating area is also calm and tranquil

Not your typical cafe to work/study from… shares the space with a CBD pharmacy and also offers CBD coffee drinks. Not my vibe and I wish that would have been clearly advertised on google maps. Wifi was weak too. Can’t recommend.

On the hunt for a caffeine fix, I stumbled upon Grinder’s Coffee Bar—a cozy little gem with a fun menu featuring coffee, tea, and even CBD options. We grabbed two cappuccinos, a cinnamon oat iced latte (so good!), and a couple of pastries. Everything hit the spot! Seating is a bit tight, and getting out of the parking lot is a mini adventure thanks to the busy intersection, but all and all — good experience.

Fun little spot to grab a quick coffee. Had great fall flavors when we visited, make this a stop if you're seeking a coffee! Prices were a bit steep but it's kinda expected at this day and age.

Omg! I had no idea that this was the OG location before the Wild locations! Super friendly staff and they are willing to give great recommendations! I got the honey lavender (hot) and a steak and potato empanada! Empanada was so big and FILLING and ONLY $7! The only con is parking can be a nightmare lol- I was lucky!

Grinder's Coffee Bar on Kirby is one of those hidden gems that makes Houston feel more like a community than just a big city. I discovered it a while ago, and it quickly became one of my go-to spots for coffee, studying, and just relaxing. The moment you walk in, the atmosphere feels warm and welcoming -- you can tell it's a small business that truly cares about its customers. The interior is cozy but modern, with just the right amount of natural light and chill background music that makes it easy to focus or unwind. One of the first things I noticed about Grinder's is how friendly and genuine the staff are. They always greet you with a smile and take their time to make sure your drink is exactly how you like it. That's something you don't get at a lot of larger chain coffee shops. You can tell they take pride in what they do. The service always feels personal, and that alone keeps me coming back. Their menu is impressive -- not just because of the variety, but because they're creative with their options. They serve traditional coffees, specialty lattes, teas, breakfast items, and baked goods, but what really makes them stand out are their CBD-infused drinks. It's such a unique concept, and they do it so well. My absolute favorite is their iced honey lavender latte -- it's smooth, calming, and tastes incredible. You can also tell the ingredients are high quality and fresh. The breakfast sandwiches and pastries are also amazing; they taste homemade and are perfect to pair with a morning coffee. What I love most about Grinder's is the vibe. It feels like a place built around connection and comfort. I've seen people working on laptops, groups of friends catching up, and others just quietly reading a book while sipping their coffee. The environment is welcoming for everyone -- whether you're stopping by for five minutes or staying for a few hours. There's outdoor seating for nice days, and the location is super convenient, right off Kirby Drive near Rice Village. It's the kind of spot that adds character to the neighborhood and makes you want to support it. Another thing I appreciate is that Grinder's is locally owned and operated. You can really feel that personal touch in everything they do -- from the service to the way the space is designed. Supporting small businesses like this one means helping real people who put passion into their work, and Grinder's is the perfect example of that. They've created a space that gives back to the community simply by existing -- a comfortable, creative, and positive environment for everyone who walks in. If you're ever in Houston and looking for a coffee shop that has great drinks, friendly people, and a relaxed atmosphere, I can't recommend Grinder's Coffee Bar enough. It's the perfect blend of quality, community, and comfort -- and definitely one of my favorite local spots. 5/5 stars Favorite drink: Iced honey lavender latte Best for: Studying, relaxing, and good conversations

MORNING BLISS Sunlight. Foam. Crispy layers. Peace. I stopped in for a treat and was not disappointed. The service? Warm and welcoming. The coffee? My "Honeybun" was creamy, dreamy, and just the right touch of sweet. And this croissant? Buttery, flaky, crispy delicious with that savory sausage tucked inside. Highly recommend starting your day here. There's something about sipping by the window as the sun hits just right Small café vibes, BIG flavor energy. #HoneybunLatte #CozyCornerCafé #PastryLoversUnite #SunlitSips #BurcieApproved

Grinders Coffee Bar is located right in the heart of the Kirby/Rice Village area. It's next to Smoothie King off of Kirby Dr. This was the first time we had been and we each ordered a drink and food item. Parking: Parking is very limited here. They have 3 spots in front of the store and a couple of spots on the side of the store so be cautious of that when trying to park here. There seems to be parking along the side street near the store. Ambiance: Grinder is connected to The CBD Apothecary so some of their coffees and drinks have options to add CBD. The inside is nice and modern. There are 3 small tables inside and a small bar area so seating is limited here. The CBD store has its own bar area which I think you can sit at if you order a drink from Grinders. Drinks: my girlfriend got an iced vanilla latte and I got the Strawberry Kiss which is a strawberry matcha drink. My girlfriend said her drink was good but not the best she's had. My matcha drink was also good and had good matcha flavor but not the best matcha drink I've had. I did see them preparing the matcha in the traditional whisking method so I appreciated that! Food: we got a bacon, egg, and cheese breakfast taco and a sausage and egg empanada. Both food items were good but we liked the empanada better. They both came with a side of green salsa for the taco and an chimichurri sauce for the empanada. The food was honestly better than the drinks we ordered. Grinders is a solid coffee shop. Try their empanadas and enjoy the variety of drinks on the menu!

I remember grinders being significantly better a few years ago. Ordered their seasonal hazelnut added some smoked salt. One cold one iced less sweet. Customer service is really good, staff is extremely nice and helpful, parking kinda sucks depending on the time of day. But the coffee was so watered down I felt like I had Folgers flavored coffee. I really hope it goes back to as good as it was before

Had a friend introduce me to this place and I'm so happy she did. Although I was not able to try the CBD options the original coffee and strawberry matcha was delicious.

I got a strawberry kiss matcha and a matcha with sugar free vanilla and both were so good! I also got a goat cheese croissant that I really enjoyed. The employee was kind and friendly. I'll definitely be back!

Service service and service! It's on point for Grinders Coffee. This doesn't take away from their drinks just gives it the extra touch. I ordered an iced americano and asked about seasonal. I was delighted by a marshmallow latte topped with a toasted bite. The process was smooth and the baristas skills showed. Additionally the pastries/cookies were a chocolaty delight. The snickerdoodle was a chunky spiced goodness as the chocolate based cookie with nuts was great. Also next door or rather an open doorway away is a convenient CBD shop...which means it's an option on their drink menu as well. We didn't partake but for anyone interested it's ideal. I recommend adding this as a Houston coffee stopping point.

Omg! I had no idea that this was the OG location before the Wild locations! Super friendly staff and they are willing to give great recommendations! I got the honey lavender (hot) and a steak and potato empanada! Empanada was so big and FILLING and ONLY $7! The only con is parking can be a nightmare lol- I was lucky!

One of the yummiest iced vanilla lattes with cold foam I've had in Houston! The baristas were friendly and helpful when I ordered. The drinks are sweet and creamy, and I also tried the iced matcha latte as well. The cold foam itself is thick and creamy, making it one of the most enjoyable parts of the drink in my opinion. The location itself is quite small and the parking lot is even more limited. There were only 3 small circular tables to sit at against a wall booth, making it not the best place to get work done if that is a location you're looking for. Fortunately, it wasn't busy when I went, making it a decent spot for me to sit and work in. Otherwise, it isn't a coffee spot I go to often when I want to get work done. However, for a quick pick-me-up, their drinks are delicious!

I was recommended Grinders by a friend who said their matcha was the best in town. I decided to give it a shot. The parking was tight and tricky (especially to pull out) when I arrived, they unfortunately let me know ahead of time that they unfortunately were out of matcha. The CBD store connected is associated with Wild. Which I believe it's also has its own coffee chain, and wish they were more upfront of their association with it. I got a chai tea with two shots, after tip it was a total of $10. It was an alright drink, I couldn't finish it and I tend to finish my drinks as soon as I sit down. Other than that, the places was cute, clean, well kept and the employees were communicative and friendly.

But for the parking situation (limited spaces and adjacent street parking is by permit only), this would be a 5 star spot. Really diverse menu with fantastic seasonal drinks, and a food menu that was really good. The empanadas are absolutely huge (2 of them fed three of us quite well).

Grinders the coffee shop brand of the parent company Wild. They make a solid cup of coffee! They are my favorite place to get coffee. I think they use the Amaya brand for their coffees. I usually get a oat milk latte but occasionally I'll explore and try one of their seasonal creations. Theh also have an assortment of pastries available along with vegan options! This location is one part coffee shop and the other part sells various thc products and the associated products that go along with it. There is also an option to order online for your drink is ready when you get there!

Loveee this place! The coffee itself tastes really good and is so smooth. They also have cool flavors which aren't super sweet. It's a chill spot and great to study in!

Great for a quick stop and go. Very cute ambiance inside, about 4-6 chairs outside. Parking is limited here with some parallel spots. Ordered the strawberry kiss (strawberry matcha latte), and it was really good! Not too sweet. Overall, Grinder's Coffee Bar is a pleasant stop and would come back to try other items. Not the largest interior but about 4-6 chairs inside.

I really enjoy their flavor options here and the online ordering option is super helpful! Last time I came I tried an iced Toffee Coffee and added CBD. It was super good!!! In my opinion the CBD has a very minor effect if any. So don't be too scared to try it if you want to. Not a whole lot of seating inside or outside. Not alot of parking either. More of a to-go place. But it is nice inside. Love that they have the attached CBD Apothecary as well.

I will definitely be making this my late night work spot for now on. It's super chill and stays open 'til 9pm!!! Coffee shops back at home would never!! Plus it's a place not only where you can get coffee but you can add CBD into your coffee which is like a bonus!! The place was super zen too even being decorated for spooky season. The plants and lighting were perfect. Also, don't be fooled by the two tables in the front by the counter. There are additional seating options outside and through the opening to the left where the restrooms are also located. Tonight I ordered a White Widow hot with half the sweetness and CBD added (which is an additional cost). I love that they didn't mind customers asking the price of the latte with or without it. The latte was super tasty and I felt amazing afterwards. I will definitely be back to try other things especially an iced latte, my number one go to! Happy Yelping!!

Grinders is a coffee BAR/ dispensary. Here's the break down... Solid coffee. Good service. Small space. Not much parking.

Love the Matcha Latte here. I ordered mine with honey and oat milk which is my go to whenever I get an iced matcha latte. It was so creamy and just the right sweetness! I wish it was a little more matcha-y but that's more of a personal preference on my end :) Friendly service, good vibes; not a lot of seating but the seating they do have is nice.

The worst expresso I ever had. They tried to explain its the pure beans. I grew up on all kinds of coffee and in 60 years never tasted such garbage. Sorry but check your system.

Super cute coffee shop that my friend showed me. This is now my second time going back. It's super cute inside (room for 3 two top tables) and 2 two top tables outside (but it's a busy street so probably wouldn't sit out there unless I have to. It's connected to a dispensary so there's also more open space on that side. The main reason I came back is because I'm obsessed with the Strawberry Kiss Matcha. Holy moly it's good. If you've been to Wild, this is very similar vibes. They even use the same coffee I believe because there are bags of Wild brand coffee on the shelves. Super cute and will be coming back!

Who would've thought that West U would be the home for CBD and coffee? Grinder's has brought a unique pairing to the area and is one of the only establishments in the entire city to offer it. Coffee buzz suddenly has a new meaning. There are two entities here, which is a legitimate CBD store and a coffee shop. The latter is what most people are here for and is small, but quaint. The WiFI is strong and there are only a handful of areas to sit. Most folks are in takeout mode, which is understandable especially given the limited parking situation. I tend to enjoy their cold brew ($4), which is potent and very tasty. The latte ($4) and the cappuccino ($5) are also quality additions to their menu. I think for most first time visitors, the CBD coffee concoctions are the main draw. They'll be the most expensive lattes on the menu, but I think the golden goat (tumeric + honey + 20mg CBD) and the white widow (oat milk, brown sugar, white mocha) are the ones that I enjoyed the most. Customer service is pretty good and they have a limited selection of daily pastries to go along with the drinks. Happy hour is daily from 1-4pm ($1 off beers) and be sure to check out their seasonal drinks.

One of the best coffee shops in Houston. Nothing is ever too sweet and they have fun flavor combinations. We usually make coffee at home but if we are ever in the mood for extra special coffee, Grinder's is our go to spot.

Decided to treat myself to a coffee since I've been grieving this week, and I've never had such a rude experience at a coffee shop. I walked in with a smile and said hello and I'm just met with rude blank stares from the two women behind the counter. I ask about their daily coffee special and she looked at me like why are you talking to me. She made the coffee and didn't say anything just put it on the counter. Mediocre drinks with terrible service. Just made me feel worse than I did before going. Never going back when there's plenty of better coffee shops in the area with polite staff.

Really quality coffee from a roaster in CA. Great service also, very attentive and knowledgeable and welcoming.

Doubling as a CBD shop, this coffee shop is definitely unique. Coming in, you are surrounded by a very distinct smell (I'm assuming the CBD). It threw me off and was unpleasant to me, but it wasn't overpowering so it just took a few minutes to get used to. You're first greeted by the display of ginormous, delicious looking croissants and other pastries. They have croissants of all varieties: butter, hot chocolate, Turkey and pesto, pistachio, passion fruit and a few more! I didn't try one but they were huge and looked perfectly flakey. The menu for the coffee is pretty standard, along with the prices, except the standout - the CBD infused drinks. The CBD infused drinks were around $9. You could also opt for a typically coffee drink and add CBD. We shared a hot latte with oat milk and it was just alright, nothing special. Overall, a good place to try out if you're in the area and looking for something a bit different.

The matcha here is really good, I got the lavendar oat matcha. Employees were friendly and helpful. Inside seating is very limited. The parking lot is extremely small and is shared with the other businesses. The pastries offered here are the same as the cafe in Pearland, from a local vendor, so they sell out quick! The almond and chocolate croissant were really big, but they have smaller ones too.

From the moment I walked in, it just made me smile. For me the decor and vibe say happy. The staff was so sweet and very knowledgeable of the products they have. The coffee was just right, and the kolache, SO GOOD! It was nice to chill and relax on the sofa in the apothecary and enjoy our breakfast. We also picked up some goodies to try. We'll definitely be back...it's such a cool spot!

Too small. Coffee was good. Service was quick, if there's a lot of people not much space.

Sooo yummy. Creamy & perfect level of sweetness. (not to sweet) Very nice baristas and clean cafe

A very aesthetic shop in rice village area. My sister dropped by once before she took me and I was curious why she wanted to go again. The menu had a good selection of drinks to choose from, and I really enjoyed the holiday menu! Got a gingerbread latte and asked them if it came sweet or not. Was told no so I didn't adjust sweetness. The drink tasted just like a gingerbread cookie and I actually wished there was a little more sweetness! Still a great drink and concept overall. My sister got a latte and she said it tasted good but lacked a strong coffee flavor. The pastries here are to die for. We like the guava morning bun. Highly recommend stopping by - the workers are very nice too!

Service matters ! Taste is even better ! Worth the ambiance . Nice and quiet . You wont regret the trip !

I love coffee. I love tea. If I were a hipster. This is where I'd be. The baristas were friendly. The atmosphere was adorable. How someone couldn't like this place is simply deplorable. To jasmine tea I went. I was happy with what I spent. Inside was small. I still took a seat. The atmosphere, the view, the tea. It can't be beat. Now enough with my rhymes. You know what to do. Get yourself some coffee. And maybe a sweet treat too.

This place is super cute but has very limited seating if you are looking to study. We did not try any of their coffee but picked up some pastries for a quick bite. We ordered the apple tart croissant and feta spinach pastry which were both super yummy. The feta spinach was really flavorful and complimented well with the crunchy dough. The apple tart croissant was very big and topped with apple filling and was more dense than a croissant but still a great choice. Will for sure try out their coffee next time!

Service was good - he made suggestions that I took and enjoyed. Music was good and not overwhelming. No idea about the food. Yelp menu shows a lot more options than what I saw in their display case which was a little disappointing but not the end of the world. Parking out front is limited and can be challenging to leave given you have to back up onto Kirby. Access to CBD store next door too

This place is good! When we travel, we like to try local coffee spots. This one popped up and immediately I could tell I was going to like it. First, we were offered a free drink because they had an extra cinnamon oat latte. My husband had that one and loved it. I ordered the chocolate diesel and OMG. I don't know what they made the foam with but it was amazingly sweet! This drink is definitely on the sweeter side but oh so good! The ham and Asiago croissant was to die for, and the white chocolate macadamia cookie was also good.

A houston classic for coffee. Grinder's has amazing coffee, but their syrups really put them ahead of other coffee shops in the area. If you are a fan of honey lavender, they have THE best honey lavender latte in town. If you're looking for a lil ~relaxation~ you can add CBD to any of their drinks! Ive tried it once and the CBD oil didnt compromise the flavor of the drink. The actual space inside is small with not a lot of seating. I usually go inside the attached smoke shop to do work since they have a bit more seating and a sofa. Not a lot of parking either, but this place is usually not too packed. Open later than most coffee shops till 9!!!

Very little parking and study space. The matcha was very creamy and perfectly sweet. Would recommend! Friendly service!

They have a variety of novel pastry selections, such as Mac & cheese kolaches, S'more scones, thick (double layered) chocolate chip cookies, and other amazing-looking traditional items like butter croissants, ham & cheese croissants, blueberry muffins. I would recommend the s'more scones, marshmallow on top and chocolate on the inside. After they heat it up, the taste of the buttery scone combined with the melted chocolate is just heavenly. It is a little pricey, $5.41 (with tax) for a single scone, although it is an unique one you can't get it anywhere else. The reason for only four stars is because they don't offer any decaf coffee or other decaf options here.

I've chai was delicious. The vibe was chill and relaxed not too many people in there. Seating is limited but the coffee shop itself isn't too big so it's understandable. The CBD shop next door is cute even as someone who doesn't partake, it's an interesting pairing but it works! We got our coffee and croissant quickly and the workers were very nice.

Grinder's Coffee Bar in Houston, Texas is a delightful cafe that offers a unique twist by also being paired with a CBD store. The combination of a cute cafe atmosphere and the availability of CBD products creates a distinct and memorable experience for coffee enthusiasts. The menu at Grinder's Coffee Bar offers a variety of enticing options, and during my visit, I had the pleasure of trying two of their specialty lattes: the Honey Lavender Latte and the Cinnamon Oat Latte. Both drinks were enjoyable between my partner and I. The atmosphere at Grinder's Coffee Bar is inviting and cozy, making it an ideal place to relax and unwind. The interior design is charming, with rustic accents and comfortable seating options. The combination of the coffee bar and the adjacent CBD store adds a unique touch, creating a space where customers can enjoy their drinks while exploring CBD products if they wish. Only giving this 4 stars because when I visited, the parking lot was a bit congested and there was a driver that blocked off two spots! I know it's not Grinder's fault, but it took us a bit to park and order our drinks :(

This is a small coffee shop in a great location, next to a CDB Shop. They have many options to add to your coffee drinks for around $5 or 10. The seating is somewhat limited with 3 small tables and 3 barstools inside, and a couple tables outside. There is additional seating in the CBD shop next door as well. I tried the cinnamon oat latte which was pretty good and not very sweet at all. They also have some pastries including the brisket croissant which seems to be pretty popular as a few customers were asking for it during my visit

My 1st time here. We were looking for a coffee shop close by rice village and found this place. I saw a tres leches croissant and was hesitant to buy it but the combination of the name intrigued me so I decided to give it a try and OMG the best croissant ever. Very flaky and not moist as I suspected. Strongly recommended for u guys to try. The coffee shop is connecting to the CBD store so u can also cruise around after your coffee.

Such a cute and unique concept. The parking situation will definitely test your driving skills and the seating area is super small so I wouldn't recommend for studying. But the coffee is really good and attached to a CBD shop.

I came here after yoga to try out a new coffee spot, I didn't realize it was an infused kind of coffee but I'm here for it. The girls at the front weren't very inviting when I walked in. I said hello and Goodmorning and they just "what can I get you?" So that's really all I didn't like. But it's okay it was early in the morning and I know people are still waking up. The drink I got was very delicious. It was a honey bun latte and I got it with the CBD. The cbd was definitely working haha I would definitely come back to try out other drinks. They even have a built in dispensary which is cool!

Amazing coffee!! But also love their breakfast tacos! Come visit you won't be disappointed. Hey I get it if cbd isn't your thing you still will have an amazing coffee. The baristas have always been helpful and kind. If you have questions ask, they are great!

Stopped in late morning for a quick take-out energy boost, but enjoyed the vibe so much I stayed and enjoyed the atmosphere. Paige and Victoria are a ballet of speed and efficiency working together. Their synergy of knowledge of the menu, options with CBD and joy-filled passion for ensuring the patrons are given an experience as opposed to just rote transfer of orders was such a pleasure to observe. Though I'm typically a simple espresso or unsweetened latte lover, the ladies convinced me to try the Chocolate Diesel with CBD. It was a rare treat for me to bliss out on something a little sweeter than my usual, but I really loved that the CBD seemed to absolve the typical caffeine jitters or crash I can have after a little sugar. That was *magic* in a cup! Thank you ladies for convincing me to step out of my usual and try something new. I'll be back soon!

Decent coffee but horrible location. Not much parking and pretty active area to be sitting outside.

Only giving 4 due to the small space and tight parking. The space is small and cute. It had the same vibe at wild (another coffee shop) Cinnamon oat latte iced: this was light and refreshing. The service was quick and everything was really nice. Shaken chai (seasonal item): this was delicious!

This CBD adjacent store serves somewhat expensive coffee with some concept CBD infused coffee. Interior is tiny, and this small spot would have trouble seating more than five parties. Parking is also difficult, and one would risk backing out onto the very busy Kirby Road. I don't remember what roaster grinders uses, but their bean played well in iced latte, though it was somewhat unremarkable. Service is also fine, and the baristas are friendly and knowledgeable. This spot seems almost like an adjunct to the next-door CBD shop. Because of the limited interior, space, standard coffee, and price, I would probably only return if guaranteed a table. It's fairly good of a place to study at.
