My order was ready at 10:41 am
Lou C.

I truly don't want you to think that I'm a Scrooge on a Christmas Eve. But my experience was outrageous that I have never been in my lifetime of yelping. My friend wanted to meet up for coffee but he didn't want to drive all the way to Chinatown. Okay, let's meet halfway. So, I found Black Rock Coffee Bar, among others like Starbucks and Dunkin' Donuts. Location was tucked away from Westheimer when I'm coming from south of Beltway. Parking was easy. I walked in and saw the menu board with tiny itty bitty writing on the monitors. There were no handouts or paper menus. Ok no problem. I took a picture with my phone and tried to enlarge it to read. I ordered a medium Blackout Coffee with Oat Milk. It came out pretty fast. Except, it wrong size. Eh? How did the barista heard small? I was contemplating with large but changed to medium. She apologized and I patiently waited. 20 minutes passed, my friend almost finished his large coffee. I got anxious. I went to the counter asking about my order. "Where is it?" Everyone behind the counter was searching. Heck. It would be cold by now. Why does it take 5 people to do one person's job? Just go make me another cup. My order finally came out. That's 33 minutes of wait time. I didn't turn ugly on them by asking for a refund. Because my friends were in my presence. Another problem, cashier asked me if I wanted something to eat at the time of ordering. "Sure, give me some donut holes." She replied, "sorry. We are out of this." Eh? "Then, give me a scone." (Inaudible with her mouthpiece) "sorry we ran out". I was looking at the empty pastry case with tags only... do they even have anything at all? That's insanely crazy. Oh one more problem. They were not in any kind of uniform. One tall guy wore a Black Rock branded graphic shirt. Everyone else was whatever. Fine. Just be whatever then. I'm not coming back.

Super easy to order via app and pick up! Opened super early which was a plus! They offered pastries but we just ordered coffee at the time! Definitely a place I can see myself using to do some remote work!

Sugar free Caramel Truffle with almond milk

Great coffee with a drive thru right off the main lanes. They have quite a few sugar free options and milk alternatives to really create whatever type of drink fits your dietary needs. Barista was nice and helpful!

Food .Service.Atmosphere. You get it all at this newly discovered coffee shop right off the Beltway feeder and Westheimer. Plenty of parking and no other business next door. Small selection of muffins to compliment their coffee choices.

You can see on this picture.How far past the drive through?I am it should have cleared by then.But it's still up in the air

Caution, when going through their drive through, it is very hazardous. The curb is small on the inside. And there's a steep drop on the outside. I curbed my car over it now. I'm stuck till I get help and the only answer they had was. This has happened at least 12 other times to people. Otherwise they don't seem to care. I guess it doesn't matter if this is happening and if you could visit it, you can see how easy it is to do

The coffee is pretty good and prices are comparable to other coffee shops, maybe a bit pricier. ($6 for a small). The inside is clean and staff was friendly. One thing to note is that there are only outlets on the wall so only 4 tables have access to the outlet and all of these spots are under the AC. It blows really strong and will give you a headache over time so make sure you have a jacket or a hat if you want to be near an outlet!

We love a good coffee and spend time on weekends going out on coffee dates in the morning. This place is easy to pass up as it is near a gas station. Look carefully to your right hand side. Luce Ave has been a long time favorite, but this one has been a surprise. We came in excited for our new spot. We ordered our usual vanilla latte hot and cold. The space is nice and open with an industrial feel. There's plenty of seating. The staff is friendly and they are quick with orders. The coffee is flavorful and it is not diluted. Definitely worth it.

Holy dessert coffee...I reserve this bad boy for when I need to boost my blood sugar. With favorites like caramel blondie, caramel truffle & blended fuel energy drinks, they offer more than the traditional caffeine buzz. When I visited, they crew wasn't exactly welcoming (maybe a bad day), a few parties were holding small work meetings and a few people were independently plowing through work. While it may make a great study spot for some (it's got a nice Indy vibe, and they keep the music low), this pocket shop won't hold very many. That being said, the parking lot is also shared & frequently busy. But...on the other hand, if you're coming for the coffee alone, try the drive thru (& the peppermint mocha)

Nice decor and comfortable. The coffee is just ok. Service is friendly, but was a bit slow.

Luce Ave…read moreCoffee Roasters has the BEST ICED PISTACHIO LATTE I've ever had and if you haven't stopped by for a sip you absolutely should! We ordered the iced pistachio latte with almond milk and the sweet chocolate iced blend with almond milk and a shot of espresso. Both drinks were delicious and reasonably priced. I'm very delighted that I've found a coffee shop that has a pistachio drink that actually tastes like a pistachio! The customer service was fantastic, the restaurant offers indoor and outdoor seating, although not as spacious as many coffee shops it's still manageable, and we saw online that they offer monthly barista classes. I most definitely plan to return to this establishment!

I dropped into Luce Ave Coffee Roasters last week. First, love that they offer coconut milk…read more Second, they have a fun menu of signature drinks along with the classics. The barista helped me pick out the perfect latte. I got the Island Latte, which the barista told me has toasted coconut flavors with a hint of pandan. I had them make it semi-sweet... There's limited seating inside, but I found a small table to get some work done (wifi access with purchase). It was a bit hot and humid inside, so I was a bit uncomfy. But that's Texas summer for ya!

Enjoyed checking out New Heights Coffee Roasters in Houston! They had lots of signature matcha and…read moreespresso drinks to choose from, and an impressive selection of beans and baked goods you could buy as well. Just keep in mind that they pride themselves on their unique drinks so they don't allow any substitutions for their signature drinks because they want you to try it as is. The Keepsake was a cold brew shandy with esplanade and Valencia orange. It almost didn't taste like coffee to me since it had a strong fruity taste with a citrusy cold foam on top, which made it a sweet treat for the summer. The Chantilly was creamy and sweet --it's a cold brew with cognac cream and black lava salt. They had lots of tables indoors for seating, although it does get crowded during peak hours. They have a small parking lot or you can find parking on the surrounding streets.

Cute little coffee roaster in The Heights. They have cool specialty drinks…read more Ordered: - The Orchard (A Granny Smith apple and green juice infused matcha flat white, topped with a Granny Smith apple slice. Served Iced) - I think their description of "fresh and crisp" was very accurate. I think the cinnamon complimented the matcha well. I wouldn't have thought to put apple cinnamon with matcha. It's feels like matcha meets autumn to me. It's fun I like it. - The Snapshot (A craft coffee float, with house made Esplanade coffee cola and custom black cherry ice cream from Cheaters Creamery. Served in house only and Iced.) - I was expecting something like an affogato when we ordered the drink for some reason but it definitely more of a coke float. They nailed it honestly. I didn't taste any coffee flavor in the few sips I had but my boyfriend said he was able to taste it. The drink comes with a fun Polaroid photo which is fun. Honestly a very unique retro summer vibe drink. - Breakfast Burrito - Honestly pretty decent. - Nutella Banana Bread - Unfortunately their oven was down so we couldn't get it toasted/warm but I think that would've been significantly better. It satisfied my craving. Definitely would consider coming back to try other fun seasonal drinks. In terms of seating, they have a large table in the front of the store, a few seats along the window that is more counter style, and a few tables in the back. From what I saw it looks like they had a decent amount of outlets and USB plugs available. Parking lot is pretty small though. They share a parking lot with a pottery studio and a little clothing store (that's also connected to the coffee shop). Not sure what the street parking situation is. We've come a couple times and would decide to go in or not based on the parking situation.
