    Iced Latte
    Nancy A W.

    This coffee shop is so nice. The staff is so kind and the coffee hot or iced is very delicious. I had book club here twice so the atmosphere is great and will definitely come back. The staff was ok that I ordered an iced latte on a very cold day lol

    Butter croissant and cappuccino

    I loved how cute the atmosphere was and the coffee was delicious! Service was good too. The only thing is the location can be a bit crowded in my opinion and the parking lot is very small which makes it harder to get your coffee and food quickly.

    Excellent coffee shop right off Taylor St and directly next to Stude Park. They're all about all things 'Active' - very runner and biker friendly. They've hosted running events in their back patio areas, and they have places for bikers to park their bikes. They are super friendly here, and there are plenty of regulars whom the staff know. As for the food and coffee... also very good!! I tried their Horchata and it is super tasty. If you like cinnamon/drinks with cinnamon, then you should definitely give this one a try. Their breakfast tacos are excellent as well and I got two because I couldn't decide on just one flavor.

    First time here and I was so impressed. Parking seems like it could get sketchy during busy times but we came on a Thursday for lunch after school had started and it was great. All the food was great including the biscuits. The restaurant itself is a great space and very inviting. Cute little game area that the kids really loved.

    A fellow Yelp Elite, said the experience starts before you taste the food...the customer service! I did not feel welcome. This was my first time and I expected more, however, I received a dry customer experience. I live nearby and finally had the chance to stop by for breakfast prior to work. The bacon and cheese taco was ok, the chipotle sauce was really good and definitely. Homemade. The rose vanilla matcha just did not hit! I only tasted the match and not the rose or vanilla. There is plenty of parking and the place is very clean and I love the colors. Very vibrant!!

    Great spot! The matcha was smooth and well made, and the blueberry muffin was fresh and delicious. Perfect combo--will definitely be back.

    Nice clean coffee and breakfast/brunch spot definitely worth a try if you're in the area. They have ample indoor and outdoor seating and they were able to accommodate the large group I was a part of. They knew in advance and already had everything set up for the group before we arrived. They were so patient and accommodating the whole time for such a large group! I ordered the active passion bowl which was quinoa, kale, eggs, sweet, potato, and avocado. It was delicious! There was also a chipotle sauce that was on top as well. They had coarse salt on the kale which was a bit much but overall, I highly recommend this dish! I also had the honey lavender latte, which was delicious! They have a watermelon syrup house made that I wanted to try, but they said that it would be overpowered by the latte and I wouldn't be able to taste it. Maybe next time I'll have a drink with the watermelon syrup! They have a selection of iced drinks there that are a bit on the pricey side, but worth a try since they are so unique. Definitely a lot of positive vibes here! The only thing I would say is that the parking is kind of tight. Especially if you have a large group. But there was also street parking available so that helped.

    Pumpkin spice iced latte
    Michelle B.

    Stumbled upon this place & SO GLAD I did. The staff was sweet, place was clean, and food was deliciously fresh. The iced pumpkin latte was just a little sweet & made with in-house puree. And the Active Breakfast Bowl will make me want to drive the 45 minutes here to eat this all the time! SOOOO GOOD!! 10/10

    Good coffee and good food, in a casual and open environment? Sign me up. The barista was so helpful, as she asked whether it was my first time here. Knowing that I wanted to get their staple item on the menu, she recommended the most popular entrees first. However, I told her that I was wanting to get something out of the ordinary that I couldn't really just do on my own, and something unique that I couldn't really find anywhere else. And so she immediately recommended the Kimchi grilled cheese with one fried egg. That was a combination I've never even dreamed of before, but I was intrigued. The sharpness of the cheddar really complimented the taste/texture of the kimchi. And the sourdough added a complexity to it. Add the fried egg and I'm like, give me more. She also explained some of the latte options, but I opted for the flat white - which was really solid. There are plenty of seats inside and outside, including some comfy seats right around the corner in a library like setting. I opted for one of the tables but also sat out in the backyard patio. Lots of wall for chalk art for littles, while there are really nice shady places to sit and relax. Only thing is that there were no more parking in the immediate lot so ended up parking on the street. Overall a great place to study, sip coffee and eat some unique food!!

    Black sesame latte with oat milk
    Olivia S.

    Adorable coffee shop with delicious food and drink. Loved the smashed avocado bagel (I added a fried egg - you should, too) albeit a little messy to eat. I went with one of their recommended drinks, the black sesame latte, which was super tasty with oat milk. Will be back to try more menu items!

    Active Passion Coffee is such a gem in Houston! I came on a day when they had a halal menu and couldn't resist--I got everything along with a few drinks, and everything was absolutely delicious. The cookie butter iced latte was next level, easily one of the best I've had. Service was warm and friendly, and you can tell they really care about their customers. Inside there are only a few spots, but the huge backyard and patio make it perfect for relaxing with friends or just enjoying the outdoors. Definitely a place I'll keep coming back to!

The difference beverages you don't find at every cafe shop. They had some pastries and other "snack" items. They also sell wine but starting at 11 am. The inside is a bit small so it's more of a grab to go place. They don't have that many tables. The parking in this area isn't free you have to pay for parking at the meter. I tried their simple avocado toast with cream cheese and that was good as expected. It's a little pricey for something like this at $10. For the drinks I tried the Les fleur which is an early gray matcha drink and that was by far my favorite. The creaminess from the earl gray salt foam really blended well with the matcha. The drink was even aesthetically pleasing. I would come here just for this drink. The other drink I tried was the Uji city fizz. I would say pass on this drink if you don't like yuzu in your matches and lattes. It didn't suit my palate. It had a refreshing taste but the flavors didn't mesh well for me. I'm still giving this place a 5/5 because this is just a taste preference even though this particular drink was a 2/5 for me.

Despite its location, it's surprisingly a quiet place - just some pretty light foot traffic in the morning I came. The waffle dish of choice today was "The Rancher" - a play on Chicken and Waffles as a sandwich, featuring syrup, powdered sugar, and ranch on the side. It was a truly creative choice, and it had many highs to it. The chicken was fried well, and the waffles were quite fluffy. However, I wasn't the biggest fan of the ranch and syrup together - maybe it's just personal taste though. The sandwich was also a bit small for the $14 price point - I left definitely wanting some more food in the belly. Overall, not a bad place. The food quality is there - it just may be a bit small portion size.

After researching a few coffee shops I stumbled upon Un Caffe's Einspanner and had to try it for myself. The coffee shop is located on Milam street towards the beginning of Midtown. I was nervous there would be parking issues but the lot next to the shop had a good amount of parking spots. The shop is very spacious, lots of seating and lots of decor, plants, artwork. Truly like a quintessential coffee shop. I ordered the Einspanner which was decently priced for a speciality drink $6.75. It comes iced and has 4 layers half and half, vanilla whipped cream, 2 shots of expresso with another whipped cream layering sprinkled with coco powder on top. I seen a lot of reviews mention how it's more desert than coffee but truly I thought it was perfect! The expresso gave me a great caffeine kick which I needed for my business day (with no crash in the afternoon). The drink wasn't too sweet either contrary to how it looks. Very subtle sweetness. This coffee shop also host lots of pop ups for other bakeries and vendors which is pretty neat too.

The flat white is not to be missed with a thick espresso foam left in your cup with the last few sips. Their iced latte, a common favorite, is also excellent with the perfect balance between espresso and milk. You know it's good when it still tastes excellent even after the ice melts a little bit. While they do charge an extra $0.95 for alternative milks (boo!), they have pistachio milk which is honestly the supreme coffee milk. It's totally worth it. Located directly across the street from Discovery Green, parking can be a bit tricky. I recommend downloading the ParkHouston app and grabbing a street parking spot around the corner. It's just $0.70 for 15 minutes of parking and you can easily add time through the app from your current location. Definitely check them out!

I do wish that the bathrooms could use a little more love with have an air freshener in there as well as a wipe down of the sink because it was water every where. Needless to say next time I'm in HTX I will pay them a visit.
