I've been wanting to try this quaint little coffee shop for awhile, and I'm from San Antonio! a…read morefriend and avid Harry Potter fan posted it awhile back and ever since I knew I needed to try. It's so unique from its eclectic decor and theming, to its wizarding coffee menu! I'm not even a crazy HP and I truly appreciated this place. We need more like it in SA! I decided to try something that tasted close to butter beer (yummyyy) so I opted for the honey butter brew (only comes iced which is perfect because that's what I like!) with oatmilk instead of half & half. The only thing it was missing is a little whip cream & drizzle of butterscotch or caramel. Otherwise , flavor was on point and not too overly sweet. Perfect amount of flavor & sweetness. I was a little disappointed in the lack of pastries available. I got there around 10am and they only had 3 individual pastries left so I got what I could. I don't recall the price for each, but they were delicious! Smaller than they look in the pictures because they were devoured in just 3-4 small bites, lol. It would be nice if they had more pastries on standby in case of busy season (especially considering it's summer and I swear all of Texas travels to CC at least once!) Lots of families were enjoying this spot so it's definitely a popular place! The side of town is questionable, with many homeless people standing by the door way begging for money which was off putting but not the owners fault. It did make me nervous to go by myself in there, I just waited until they left. Parking is all in the back and is very small so just a heads up to patrons that you may need to park somewhere else nearby or just circle the building a few times until someone leaves. My next trip corpus will absolutely include the mugg in my itinerary so I can try more delicious concoctions!

The place has been around for years near the university and it is a good size coffee shop with a big inside and patio area. It's great for all things; studying, meeting up with friends or just a simple pick up. There's games to play with too if you want something to do with friends. Check out their socials for their market days. They also offer food and treats alongside with gelato. They won best cold treats! It's nice to have this coffee shop plus they have other locations.

Upon entering, you can feel the nice vibe of the store, with a kind of rustic feel. The floor really stands out, as it looks like tile at first glance, but I believe it's slab that is painted/printed with a neat pattern. My bride ordered the seasonal "Salty Bear", which she absolutely loved. There was a steady flow of customers coming through while we enjoyed our beverages. Played a couple rounds of Go Fish with the kiddos and then it was back to Houston we went. No better way to end our Corpus visit. Absolutely recommend.

I got a 12oz which is not available in most places for iced lattes so I was pleasantly surprised! The barista was nice at taking my order and let me say, this place is popular! It was packed the whole time we were there. Seems chill to study or hang. I also bought a shirt! They sell their beans which I find amazing.

Paired it with their breakfast biscuit. Straight comfort food, no notes. And grabbed a cinnamon roll for a friend... let's just say I'm the favorite today You can taste that everything's made in-house. Fresh, intentional, and crafted with love. And the whole concept? Super well put together, inviting, and one of those spots that instantly makes you want to stay a little longer. Island Joe's Coffee is definitely a vibe. If you haven't been yet... fix that

Don't try to go right now. Give it a few months…read more 3 FAILED ATTEMPTS. 9 months pregnant and tried 3 different times to dine, each time with no honest transparency with wait times. I really wanted to keep loving Bien Mérité, but after three attempts, I'm extremely frustrated. Each visit has involved inaccurate and constantly changing wait times. My first attempt on 4/10 around 2pm in the afternoon. It was just me and my 15month old baby, there was only 2-3 tables occupied and I was told 45 minute wait with an almost empty dining room. I asked the hostess due to me being 9 months pregnant and having a toddler if I could just at least sit down while waiting the additional 45 mins and was told no. So I totted out my baby and myself, bought pastries and left. The second attempt I was quoted an hour , waiting the full hour and checked back in with the hostess stand only to be told it was going to be an additional hour, on top of what we already waited again. Third attempt (Sunday, April 26) waited a full hour, checked in once again with the hostess and was told it is now going to be another 90 minutes on top of once again the hour we already waited. I understand waits happen, but this level of inconsistency feels disorganized and disrespectful of customers' time--especially when expectations are set incorrectly from the start. I'm just asking for transparency and honesty here. It's disappointing because the space is beautiful and I've always supported this business but the waitlist management and homestead stand seriously needs improvement on honesty and management of times.
