Marty at Angelita's is rocking the smoothest, most balanced, long-enjoying, chocolatey, cold process, cold coffee I have had in a long time...and by long time, I mean, I'm a coffee roaster and I had some really good coffee Yesterday, back in San Francisco ... and to stumble across this careful, studious, mad scientist, meticulously light-roasting an amazing Brazilian bean from the Cerrado region...careful to not simply burn it like 90% of folks do, but hang wayyy back and let those complex fruit notes and spices survive the Texas heat AND humidity, and boom, in this music-lover's paradise of a room, quietly protected to perfection.

I've never seen a seahorse latte before and it was genuinely stunning and almost too pretty to drink. The drinks were the perfect temperature. The cortado was nice and smooth, with a bite that wasn't too acidic, and the Abuelita mocha latte was exceptional!

Love the location, cuz it's close by to my place of employment…read more The staff is kind, and efficient. The establishment is clean and love the color scheme decor. It does have an inviting feel for me. Plus they actually do make cold brew, which is a procedure to make the coffee less acidic. It is slow dripped over long period of time, like other places like Starbucks that serve expresso on ice and call it cold brew. There is actually a reason to making cold brew coffee. It is made for those who love coffee but have acid reflux issues. Or want to prevent any stomach indigestion. They also sell vegan muffins of carrot cake flavor and banana bread.

Garden Coffee is a cute little coffee shop in town nestled in the center of Brownsville…read more The staff were super friendly and welcoming. The shop is very cute and great for photo ops while sipping on your latte. My partner ordered the cinnamon dolce latte with oat milk and I ordered the pour over. The latte was delicious and full of flavor, a little more on the sweeter side so if you're not a sweet tooth individual proceed with caution haha. The pour over was cool because it was DIY type of drink which I've never encountered. Overall, we had a great experience and highly recommend to anyone in town to come visit

I missed Garden Coffee on my last trip, but I made sure to visit this time, and it was 1000% worth it. A small ways past Old Port Isabel Rd (driving down 802) is Garden Coffee. A small, serene little spot - a secret garden. It was virtually empty when Mom and I arrived; the only other occupants were a couple of folks typing away on their laptops. Charming and cozy are the first things that come to mind when walking in. The shop is decorated in plants, and there are cute indoor swings to add to the whimsy. The menu is respectable, I ordered a cortado, pistachio latte, and a cheesecake. The cortado was nice, the snob in me didn't particularly care for it being served in a paper cup (it impacts the flavor somewhat). However, the pistachio latte was probably the best pistachio latte I've had in recent memory. It tasted so natural, and not artificial and bizarre. The cheesecake though? Amazing. Incredible. Perfection. Picture perfect, cut like butter, and tasted like a dream. I really think the staff was the cherry on the cake, though - she was very kind and helpful, took great care in crafting out drinks, and made great suggestions.

Mom and I visited GoodPeople. It's off Ruben Torres near a Goodwill store. It's cute and nice, but with a few tweaks I think they can be pretty great. The menu has your classics: cortado, lattes, americanos, cappuccinos, and pour over coffee, and a nice selection of specialty coffees, cold brew bar, tea, matcha beverages, and fruit refreshers. They also have an assortment of pastries and seasonal menus. I did make a comment that they should probably get the battery replaced in their smoke detector. The constant chirping was pretty distracting. I'm sure patrons who spend time there studying would appreciate that, too. Mom ordered a pistachio crunch cloud latte and a pink frosted cinnamon roll, and I got a rose bud cloud latte. I typically order a cortado as a "control" but I forgot this time around, which is a shame, because I really could have used that unit of measure. I wasn't too much of a fan, to be honest. The rose was very perfumey and overpowering. Before you come at me with, "Well, Cindy, duh, it's Rose," I've had plenty of rose lattes that were an absolute delight. (Curator Coffee comes to mind) It was the first time in recent memory I had trouble getting through my drink. Mom had the opposite problem. She thought her pistachio drink was too subtle on the pistachio! I got to taste it and, maybe it's because I had a mouth full of potpourri, but I thought it was okay. We chalked it up to the sweetness of the cinnamon roll clouding the nuance. (The cinnamon roll was great, by the way) Overall, happy we went, but with Brownsville finally starting to develop a nice showing of coffee shops, I think I have many other places I'd pick first.
