This coffee and tea place is in Rice Village. Parking is kinda tight but the place was packed. There were students, families, couples and people who went solo. There was a small space for kids to place legos and a play kitchen area. We got the frozen hot chocolate. The kids gulped it all up pretty quickly. So it was kid approved. I got the Thai tea frappe. I was grateful that it wasn't super sweet like traditional Thai tea. It was a nice choice for a hot summer day. All are welcome to the place. Love the concept! read more

We ordered the strawberry banana smoothie and a basic latte. The smoothie was just okay and you don't get a lot of banana or strawberry, mostly just sugar and slush. Couldn't commentate on the latte because I couldn't really taste the roast at all, it was mostly just straight oatmilk diluted with color. Obviously this establishment promotes a great cause, one I wholeheartedly support especially within my community, but I would not visit this location solely for the drinks. read more

What a wonderful concept! Had great service. Spacious seating great place for study or work. Drinks are a bit pricey and make sure to specify what size you want your drink! We came for the bogo latte deal promoted on their Instagram. Pretty solid latte but not anything extraordinary. read more

Parking: small lot out front, easily found spots open early Sunday morning! Can see how it's busier/difficult to park on a busier weekday Ambiance: spacious with plenty of seating and WiFi. Nice large windows with natural lighting. Plenty of merchandise on sale as well Service: was essentially empty except for one other patron when I was there. Only took a few minutes to make my matcha but they walked it out to me and drew a rocket ship on there! Drinks: opted out of coffee and opted for matcha latte but could tell from the color right away that the ratios were off. Too much milk to matcha ratio so it was a pale green (almost yellow green) so as expected the flavor of the matcha was EXTREMELY subtle. Not too sweet. If you prefer a more matcha forward drink, would choose something else at this establishment! read more

Stopped by for a cup of coffee this morning and was greeted by the friendliest and happiest people. I love the mission behind Bitty and Beau's Coffee and will always be glad to support! I got the maple cold brew which was delicious. It is a little bit on the sweeter side, but certainly still great coffee. There are plenty of tables and seats if you want a spot to study or to read a book while you have a cup of coffee! read more

I do not know why this place is a 4.5. I've tried this place twice and the coffee is unbearably sweet. Just undrinkable.

I absolutely love Bitty and Beau's. I stop by for a hot green tea with lavender and honey and it's always so good. The service is always amazing and I even get to chat a bit when it's not too busy. I plan to go and work a few hours because it's so peaceful and happy. Just what I need when work gets stressful. read more

My sisters & I came here on a late evening after going to the airport. It was peaceful and mind you this place is quite spacious! We all got holidays menu items and although the drink was on the pricier end, it all came out super delicious. I will say that the restroom definitely needed some TLC, which I'm pretty sure they clean up once they close up, but it wasn't pleasant using it. Nonetheless, we'll be back to try more drinks! read more

Bitty & Beau's Coffee - Iced Peppermint Bark Latte with oat milk - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Houston, Texas

This is an excellent coffee shop to study in! A ton of students study here, and the employees are very friendly. I had some issues with the wifi initially, but it was fine later on. They have outlets along the wall with the long bench seating and plenty of tables to work at. I had the peppermint tea, which wasn't really my cup of tea. My friend who brought me here likes their tea. I thought the drinks were very pricey, but they are for a good cause! I normally prefer a matcha or chai latte, but I balked at their prices for the iced drinks. I think it would be worth it if I come here in the morning and settle into the work flow. You can park in the parking lot next to the coffee shop and not just the few spots in front. There's also some street parking nearby, so there is plenty of parking available without having to park in the garage, which is free only for the first two hours. read more

Studied at bitty and beau's coffee in rice village for some big exams this week. It was the middle of the day is it was so crowded with a lot of traffic. They have only a few spots available in front of the store but luckily you are allowed to park in the big lot next to the coffee shop. There's also street parking available as well as a nearby garage if you're down for a little walk. I got a regular iced latte with toasted marshmallow flavor. The latte itself was fine but I don't think I really tasted any toasted marshmallow flavor. It was just a regular latte. I was fine with it though since they did sweeten it nicely and I just wanted to be caffeinated while studying read more

This was my first time here and I would definitely come back. It was such a good study spot with plenty of tables and the wifi was strong. I liked that there was a convenient parking lot in the front. The drink was a little pricey but I love and support the mission. The employees were so nice and service was very quick. I like that your order number was a card from a deck of cards! I ended up getting a matcha latte sweetened which was around $9. The matcha was the perfect sweetness and still had the earthy matcha flavor without being bitter. The large cup was a pretty good size as well! My friend enjoyed her coffee too. read more

I stopped by Bitty & Beau's in Rice Village because I was craving a fall drink and I'm so glad I did. While waiting in line, I read their story. A couple started the shop for their kids with Down syndrome and built a mission around hiring and empowering people with disabilities. It's such a beautiful cause, and I love that I got to support it. Got a pumpkin spice latte which totally hit the spot and worth the short wait. Warm atmosphere, kind staff, and great coffee. Definitely coming back! read more

Bitty & Beau's Coffee did not disappoint on my current Matcha crave. While it's still warm enough for an iced latte I had the pleasure of enjoying an iced coconut matcha l with oat milk latte here. Super yum! I don't have an overly sweet tooth this was sweet but balanced so perfectly with the early taste of matcha. Less than 10 mins away from home I'll be back for sure. The inside definitely a vibe for catching up with friends, there's a kids area with games/activities to keep them occupied. I plan to bring my laptop to get some work done. The staff provided great service. Adding to my list of coffee shops to visit ongoing. read more

I'm sitting here having a latte (returning customer). And once again, almost moved to tears. I know that sounds a little over the top, but here I am. Sure, there are more "perfect" coffees and small bites, but honestly you HAVE to come here. Why? Again, I'm sitting here with a book, but getting no reading done because I'd rather just sit and observe and listen. I guarantee that if you just spend 10 minutes here, watching and listening to the employees just do their job - and pour everything into what they do - earnestly, and with joy - You have to look past the quirks and really look with both eyes open - you'll find the magic I'm talking about. There's something here that is very rare and hard to find out there... It's LOVE. I'm serious. I'm talking about a coffee shop. ‍ But mark my words, if you come to Bitty & Beau's in Rice Village, you'll get more than a latte. You can sit here and soak in this vibe - the way the employees respond and act towards customers and each other is simply beautiful. But words on a page wouldn't do it justice. Give this place a try,. read more

Great coffee shot with a great mission! The inside was much larger than I expected. There are plenty of spots despite an area dedicated to selling merchandise in the bag and side. I got a warm chai latte and it was tasty. It was pricey but that is the average price of what you see at most coffee shops these days. Only con is there is barely any parking in front of the coffee shop but you could always walk over from the Rice Village garage. read more

This is a newish coffee shop on the eastern side of rice village over by Hungry's. Like many other businesses, parking is very limited. Their 2 reserved spots are for only 15 mins, so your only other option is street parking or garage which is a few blocks away. I tried the spiced brown sugar iced latte and initially it was not that good, but after I finished the first half, I was finally able to taste the spices, even after shaking and stirring before I started drinking. This place is interesting when it comes to calling out orders. They provide you with a playing card for your order and they keep the other card. I tried one of their flavored lattes and really enjoyed it, as well as my overall experience. read more

Bitty & Beau's not only has great coffee, but great people working there! We love supporting them and their commitment to helping others!

I stopped here early on a Friday morning to study and grab a cup of coffee. I really like the ambience as it's very open there's tons of lighting and I've never had an issue with finding good seating here. Unfortunately I was not able to get hooked onto the Wi-Fi, but I'm not entirely sure if that was just a personal issue with my device that I was using on this particular day. The service is so amazing and everyone here is so friendly and I really love the mission behind this company. Unfortunately, I did not enjoy my caramel frappe as it kinda tasted like a protein shake. This can partly be explained to the fact that they use a premixed powder that goes into making the frappe just not my favorite overall this is a nice place with a good mission and great customer service. I would be back to try something else! read more

I ordered a matcha latte with no ice, but when I received it, the cup was only about half full. For a drink that costs nearly $9, that was very disappointing. The matcha also tasted unpleasant. I asked if they had agave to help with the flavor, but I was told to look around the counter, and there wasn't any. Overall, I didn't feel I received good value or good customer service. read more

I love coming here to support the staff. They're always incredibly welcoming and kind. I ordered the frozen hot chocolate frappe and blueberry muffin (not pictured because I demolished it).

A coffee chain located in the heart of Rice Village, Bitty & Beau's somewhat unconventional approach to business has made them a national hit with locations all around the country. Not only they do serve an excellent coffee, but they have some amazing people that work here as well. They have described themselves as a "human rights movement disguised as a coffee shop." The shops are named after Bitty and Beau, the children of the Amy and Ben Wright, both of whom were born with Down syndrome. It has been the mantra of the company to employ individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, celebrating their presence in the workplace. It's not just a noble mission, they've achieved great success since I've seen nothing but kindness and efficiency; two pillars of quality customer service. Clean and full of natural light, they've done a good job in keeping the place looking new and inviting. There is abundant indoor seating with a few outdoor tables as well, with just enough front parking spaces to accommodate a handful of visitors. The decor is unique and interesting, especially with the pallet light fixtures and illuminated bar counter. I've yet to see the place completely full and I appreciate the laid back vibe, along with the semi-speedy WiFi. The drinks have been a thumbs up. From iced lattes to cold brews to smoothies, I've enjoyed every cup. The prices are average and the menu is simple enough for most caffeine lovers to get what they want. The strawberry banana and wild berry smoothies have been my favorites thus far, along with an occasional vanilla or mint chocolate frappe. From a marketing perspective, the branding is on point. They've got a whole selection of memorabilia and company merch, along with lots of inspiring messaging centered around their cause. Their mission of "changing the way people see other people" is one that I'll certainly raise a cup of coffee to anytime. read more

"More than a cup of coffee" is painted on the side of Bitty & Beau's, and that quote absolutely rings true. If you go online to their website, you will see their story: "Bitty & Beau's Coffee is a human rights movement disguised as a coffee shop, where people with intellectual & developmental disabilities are valued in the workplace. It's a place where diversity isn't just appreciated, it's celebrated." Besides the amazing story, the coffee is actually VERY good, and there's plenty on the menu to choose from. The cafe seating is plentiful. I saw families, students studying, individuals working, and even an interview going on. It's a comfortable and welcoming vibe, but it's also clean and hip. Some neat things they offer: There are flavor add-ins like hazelnut, toasted marshmallow, etc you can add to your order to enhance your flavor experience. There is a really neat pushpin map of the world towards the back of the shop, and if they have pins available you can place one in the location of your home town. There are already hundreds if not thousands of pins in the map. Lastly, when you order you are given a Bitty & Beaus branded playing card, and the baristas will call out your card number when your order is ready. Some tips: The main tip I would add is please be patient. The workers are professional and kind individuals, and they deserve kindness, patience, and respect. I have been here many times, and I've always had an incredible experience. If you get a chance, please support this coffee shop. I would love to see more of them pop up. Cheers!! read more

Not sure how this place is not at 5 stars but this place is such a great coffee shop! From the ambiance, space to the friendly & welcoming staff! For reference I came on a Saturday morning right when they opened (6:30am) so it was pretty quiet until about 8am. I have not one complaint about this place. I also was able to get parking right in front but again because it was very early. Definitely recommending this place and will be back!! read more

Love a cup of coffee with a purpose behind it. Bitty & Beau's is spacious on the inside and plugs for those looking for a working space. I enjoy it is in Rice Village so walking distant to many other shops and good spots. I will say it is a bit pricey, matching the boutique coffee cafe prices. But what did shock me was my drip coffee came to almost $6. I added a syrup (0.95).. but this is the most I have spent on drip coffee. I ignored this because I enjoyed the space, the mission and everything Bitty and Beaus stands for. read more

I came here on a whim after looking for a coffee shop while I was in the area. I stopped in and was greeted by a girl at the front.

Overall, the coffee was really delicious and the service was great. The shop was so cute inside and had plenty of seating.

The vibe in the cafe was really cutesy, but for the drinks I can't say the same. We ordered 4 matcha lattes and a smoothie, the matcha was not even green it was so pale, and so sweet. I definitely would not recommend if you're looking for GOOD matcha. Matcha should be a vibrant green, not a pale green. read more

Pretty neat place in the ever crowded Rice Village. Barely any parking available, but thats a given in Rice Village. Like what the other reviewers are saying, when you walk in, you'll notice the difference between this coffee place vs others. If you still don't know, go find out. Spacious on the inside, there's plenty of room to kick out our legs. There's even a big map of the world and pins to put up of where you're from as well as a nice couch area and a play zone for kids. The coffee and drinks are pretty middle of the road and standard pricing . Overall, this place is pretty great for what they do and offer. 5/5 will come back. read more
