Imagine walking into a coffee shop just expecting a normal drink and then Ace Chang is behind the counter moving like a main character. The man isn't just making coffee -- he's crafting experiences. Every scoop of beans? Generous. Every pour? Precise. Every word? Warm enough to melt the iciest morning. Like this dude probably hands you a cup and suddenly the whole day feels different. Not because it's just coffee, but because Ace Chang treats people like they matter. That kind of energy is rare. Some baristas just press buttons on a machine -- Ace Chang is out here running a whole vibe. You walk in tired Ace Chang hands you a drink You walk out feeling like life might actually be alright today. Honestly the coffee might be great, but the real secret ingredient is the kindness stat being maxed out. Dude's probably the type who remembers people's orders, throws in a little extra, and talks to you like an old friend even if it's your first time there. read more

I had high hopes for this place as many said that it was great coffee. I went with the grand name latte and it was more sweet than coffee. I should have added a shot, as it just tasted like steamed oat milk with chocolate. I then went with a Kona coffee, straight, and that was better, but it took me $17 to find caffeine for my needs. Maybe I ordered the wrong thing? The place was good, however, for studying or doing a Zoom meeting. Clean cafe, clean bathrooms, plenty of space. Everyone was very friendly, and they even brought my coffee to me! So I can't knock them too hard, but as for coffee, I'd probably make sure you add espresso shots or find somewhere else. read more

Bad Ass! Looking for a quiet place to work or meet with friends? Looking for a good cup of coffee? Look no further. This quaint little coffee shop is amazing! I have never been here before, and the people working were very friendly and helpful. I ended up grabbing a monkey mocha iced and a bad ass pumpkin hot. Both are excellent. The restrooms were very clean and the overall shop was very clean as well. read more

Horrible service! We never received our breakfast items after waiting 20 minutes but did get our coffee. After asking where our pastry's were they said we never paid. I even asked the cashier about the tap payment not working and she said it went through. Complete miscommunication with employees. read more

Five stars all the way! I can't recommend this coffee shop enough. This shop was able to capture the coastal island vibes the moment you walk in the door - from the decorative interior, luscious plants, all the way to the tropical ingredients. You can read up on their legacy, how they got their name and where they all started by browsing through the art within. Their service was top tier. Manager Mike was very informative, friendly and excited about his work. His positive attitude definitely rubbed off on everyone around. The whole shop was nothing but smiles and good conversation. The coffee was absolutely fantastic. We got to sample their freeze blend, which was delicious. They make their ice cubes out of coffee! So, no more watered down coffee in this blistering Texas heat. We will definitely be visiting again and hoping that this company expands further into the southwest portions of Houston. read more

I ordered the Monkey Mocha. It's a latte with banana and dark chocolate flavors. The flavor is good, but nothing particularly great. I'd be willing to return, but won't go out of my way. The person I met ordered tgeir donuts, which comes as 2 per order. It's too covered with sugar for me. I'd say it's a mix between a cruller and cake donut. The staff are professional, and the environment is as expected of a chain coffee shop. Otherwise, nothing stands out about this cafe. read more

Such a cute place for a coffee!! If you are someone who likes donkeys and coffee, it's the place for you. Coffees are great too. They are not too sweet nor too bitter. And the best part, you also get to donate for the lovely donkeys :) read more

I've tried this coffee spot on several occasions already and I must admit that's it has a nice cozy setting inside the business. The service has always been very pleasant and prompt. Today the young man who made my drink did an amazing presentation and the drink was extremely good. Definitely keep up the great work and you have a lifetime customer. read more

There is coffee then there is Quality Coffee and Bad Ass delivers on the latter. Whether you are a javaphile or a coffee aficionado, close your eyes and think back to a place you traveled to sipping a great cup of coffee. Remember the surroundings, the aroma, the taste, the warmth or cold and how it made you feel in that ONE MOMENT. Now open your eyes, Bad Ass Coffee of Hawaii is one of the few places I have located that will give you that experience. read more

Love this location. Their coffee is always on point and the service is always wonderful. We pass a few other coffee shops on the way to get here, but it's well worth it. We usually order drive through, but have sat inside as well and the ambiance is always nice. The parking can get a bit tricky during some hours, but overall, highly recommend their coffee. read more

I was in need of an afternoon pick me up after the Galentine's Yelp Elite Event. North Houston CM Brittany suggested Bad Ass Coffee since it was near by. I wasn't familiar with this establishment prior to visiting. At present, there are only two in TX (the other one is in McKinney). This is a nice coffee shop in a small shopping strip. The store is pretty spacious and it was very clean. On the day that I stopped in, they were selling merch for 25% off. They also have a drive thru. The staff was very friendly and provided suggestions of drinks that I may like based on my flavor preferences. I decided to order the Three Waves Latte with Oat Milk. It has coconut, caramel, and macadamia nut. I prefer iced coffee in the afternoon, but it was cold that day so I went with a hot coffee. It was so good! I loved the coconut flavor and I got the boost that I needed for my drive home. Thanks for the recommendation, B! read more

Got a to-go order from here recently in an effort to try something different. Lots of different options here that hover near Hawaiian type flavoring, but plenty of others as well. Order was ready when the app said it would be and placed in a to-go carrier as we had 4 drinks. Drink was fine for me. Really nothing that stood out. I liked that they used coffee-ice for the iced lattes as it prevented some watering down of the drink. read more

Bad Ass coffee is unique; not only is their coffee premium quality but they even make their ice out of coffee. The manager-Mike-is always personable which trickles down to the staff. They even have some really cool apparel. The place is always clean and upbeat-probably because of the coffee. read more

I came in on a Wednesday at 2:30 and it was busy but not noisy. The shop is very clean, I love the Hawaiian theme dark colors and turquoise. The vibe is relaxed with some island tunes lightly playing. I ordered the Orange Mango Smoothie with a shot of energy. It was delicious and very refreshing. The bathrooms were spotless. A great stop in to get a little work done or chill with friends. read more

Bad Ass Coffee of Hawaii - Orange Mango Big Kahuna smoothie - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Cypress, Texas

Loving the place for sake of the name alone (too bad the coffee couldn't hold up to the hype, see below). Pretty busy on a random Saturday afternoon, though, as we're dropping in after a day spent with the Miata Club. Medium decaf flat white made with heavy cream (ordered as a latte with no foam, and I can overhear the baristas now trying to figure out what the ratios are supposed to be). The verdict: they didn't get the ratios right. This one is way too heavy on the cream, or perhaps the coffee itself is just too delicate in flavor. I _will_ give them kudos for being able to get it with no foam, though. So, there's some skill here at least. The live-edge hardwood tables and teal colored walls certainly give off the tropical vibe but the metal chairs aren't making it very inviting to stay for long. And I wish there was stronger Hawaiian reggae playing, but alas, it's just sounds like Bruno Mars on vacation. Cool concept; underwhelming execution. PS: with the School of Rock sharing a wall with the shop, you're not going to get the cozy hang-out-and-read vibes from this place; all I hear right now is a sad trombone (Womp womp) and muffled AC/DC. read more

Bad Ass Coffee of Hawaii - a coffee cup on a table - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Cypress, Texas

Had to try out the new coffee spot in Cypress. Very spacious in the inside and a good place to study or just have a coffee date. They serve not only variety of coffee but also snacks/food. Upon arrival I was greeted by most the workers with a "Aloha" which was a nice touch. The person who took my order was very helpful and answered all my questions. I appreciate the fact that I can adjust my sweetness level on the drinks or even the sugar free options. I did try the kono brew and I get that its special type of brew but man almost 6 dollars for a small is kind of pricey. As I was waiting I notice the area where they keep napkins, sugar packets and other essentials has syrup bottles there. I haven't seen ice cube coffees else where but it was great to have. For a first visit drinks, workers, environment all were great. read more

Bad Ass Coffee of Hawaii absolutely lives up to its name. From the moment I walked in, the customer service was amazing--the staff were friendly, welcoming, and clearly passionate about what they do. Their Kona coffee tasted incredibly smooth and rich, and you can tell it's high-quality. One of the coolest things there was the Koffee Kooler, which looks like a margarita machine but serves perfectly chilled coffee drinks--such a fun and unique touch. The whole place has a great vibe, and honestly the badass name fits perfectly because the coffee and experience really are that good. If you're a coffee fan or just want a fun place with great drinks and awesome service, this spot is definitely worth checking out. read more

Great coffee place! So clean and the girls were so welcoming when we mentioned it was our first time. I appreciated that the cashier offered us a sample as we were looking at the menu. I forgot to ask her name but she was very helpful. They have a variety of snacks and beverages. There's limited parking for their location but there's more space around. The drinks were delicious to say the least. Definitely coming back! read more

Decided to give it a try, drive thru. Got the iced matcha tea latte with two breakfast sandwiches (Aloha Sandwich and The Bad Ass One). The matcha tea latte was flat, nothing to rave about. Wasn't thick, luscious, or very complex. The sandwiches were just bad and cold. I don't think warming them up would have made them any better. Pictures are included. Didn't go inside so not sure about the ambiance, but likely won't be back. read more

New favorite coffee shop. The owner was super friendly. We got an Americano, the Three Waves, muffin, donut, and scone. I like a good, warmed up pastry so I recommend the scone. My husband won't shut up about the muffin (yogurt in the middle). Highly recommend. I also love a place with a good theme. read more

I love badass coffee, They're always fast and very polite. My drinks are consistently good and so is the food. One time they forgot a sandwich and gave me a free drink coupon! ( I didn't drive away yet) but definitely will remain a customer read more

After passing by a few times, I finally stopped ordered the Monkey Mocha with coconut milk. It was very delicious, smooth and great balance between the banana & dark chocolate.

Strong coffee with the flavor of paradise. Always love the staff they're friendly and chill really embracing the Aloha Vibes! I usually order the "Three Waves" it's a Macadamia, Caramel & Coconut drink. So good I love my coffees a little less sweet with more nutty undertones. My husband gets the "Beach Bliss" which is essentially a REALLY STRONG white chocolate mocha. The Masalda donuts are heated to order and covered in cinnamon and sugar. So yum. Breakfast sandwiches are traditionally sausage or bacon, but on a sweet and warmed roll. (Like a sweet bread) read more

So I searched coffee and this place was number one. I'm addicted to coffee and never have I seen this name come up once. Well thank you Jesus I did because this coffee I got is way better than Starbucks. Like delicious and strong I am right now awake. I got a medium hazelnut hula and it's delicious so strong. I need strong coffee if I'm gonna be running around 4 kiddos lol. Will definitely be back oh and don't forget to download the app for rewards. read more

Why 5 stars? Because Hawaiian coffee is an auto 5 from me. --- --- --- I love Hawaii and I love coffee. Coincidentally, I REALLY love coffee from Hawaii. Normally I drink my coffee black, but there's something about how they do it in Hawaii where they just lightly flavor it with macadamia, coconut, hazelnut, etc. So the wife ran inside and my request was to order me a nitro with one of those flavors added in. And as fate would have it, they did so perfectly. It was very subtly added, but you barely actually noticed it. As much as I love super sweet things, they always make me feel gross afterward. There was no post game grossness on this day. Only happiness and a much needed pep in my step after stuffing my face at lunch. We also bought several bags of beans which all had flavor profile combinations with things mentioned above. I normally would wait to write this review until after I try some of those beans, but I already know what's going to happen: I'm going to love them. read more

Stopped by because I heard a lot of great things about Bad Ass Coffee on Facebook. I got 2 coffees to try out "Bad Ass Mocha" which has dark & white chocolate. It was really good, I replaced the whole milk with coconut milk. I also orders the "Three Waves Hot Latte" that has coconut, caramel & macadamia nut. That was my absolute favorite! The coconut flavor is very strong and delicious. I ordered an everything bagel with cream cheese, it came out piping hot and smelled amazing! It was really good. I stopped by the drive thru which I'm a little sad about, I missed out on seeing the interior of the shop. The servers were very nice and polite. read more

The best coffee my old ass has ever drank! Great conversation with the young lady who served me?

For a different take on coffee drinks, Bad Ass Coffee is a great place to check out. The Kona coffee by itself has good flavor, not as acidic as other coffees which I guess is expected. The flavored drinks have a good coconut, caramel taste to them. Close your eyes, and you may think you are in Hawaii. The place is clean, and inviting, so if you need a place to study or get some extra work done, there are a number of tables you can sit at while enjoying your drink. I also recommend the Turkey, Bacon & Cheddar Sandwich for lunch. If you are looking to try something other than Starbucks, give this place a try. read more

A delightful find in the area! The black coffee was delicious as were the two iced coffees we tried. Can't wait to try more.

I have passed by this beautiful little establishment with high hopes that I would have an opportunity to try them someday soon and today was certainly that day. With a name like that, who wouldn't be curious right?! We walked in to a nearly empty establishment which is usually a red flag for me but perhaps it was a slow day. I was willing to proceed forward with the one sole customer in front of me taking an exceedingly long amount of time because she decided to purchase mugs, shirts, coffee bags, etc. I took this as a good sign because you don't normally see people in Starbucks loading up on merchandise with their Latte. It wasn't her fault until I realized their touchscreen machine was out of order and no one seemed to know how to remedy this issue. I get that things go wrong but I was hoping for at least acknowledgement from at least one staff member to apologize or reassure me that they would get to us as quickly as possible. None however was given so we were made to stand and wait for quite a long time. It was at this point I realized that maybe we should've just driven through to get better service. No smiles or formalities were exchanged and it seemed as if everyone was not having their best day. When it was our turn to order, there was still not a smile, a courtesy, or a sorry for your wait. All is forgiven, because many can have a bad day. I kept my hopes high for a cappuccino that would live up to the perceived hype and make this situation a salvageable one. After a couple of minutes to allow it to cool, we sat in the very comfy seating but chose a window seat since the rest of the place seemed quite dark for such a beautiful day. After a few sips, I realized that this coffee definitely leans on the sweeter side versus bitter or strong. It's my first cup of Hawaiian coffee so perhaps this is to be expected. I'm always open to new experiences but it just wasn't my preference. I finished my cup but it left me feeling like it lacked any potency and was far too sweet for my tastes. Normally one cup of coffee perks me up but the perk was definitely lacking completely. I was also hoping to order food but no gluten free options were available. I would've asked the cashier if she had some but it wasn't her best day and I certainly didn't want to make her day any worse. All in all, I left hungry, lacking the pick-me-up refreshment I so dearly craved, and I felt that maybe I should've just brewed something at home in a to go cup. I hope this place was simply having a bad day but due to my first and last experience here, I doubt I will be returning. I hope these sweet girls have a better day tomorrow and that some improvements can be made here for the future of this business as well. I'm always up for trying new things but it just didn't pan out today. read more
