Reverse osmosis water system
Karina M.

I love the coffee from here and always make it a point to support local when I can. Blockhouse embodies community and embraces the spirit of Fort Bend County. I am a self-proclaimed coffee snob, and I realize today why it's so good.... the reverse osmosis for the water! The baristas are so friendly and helpful. I have NEVER had bad service here. Today, I gave a shout-out to the person who made my turkey/bagel sandwich. I was so impressed with it. It was much more elevated than what I expected - Flavor wise and in terms of presentation. Blockhouse is a staple in Downtown Richmond with a small town feel, not pretentious and stuffy. Im at big fan, since it opened....can you tell?

I found this place while visiting the LIT Bookbar that is located next door. I walked in to the cutest little coffee shop. It is small in size but it fits the atmosphere. When I entered there were ladies doing crafts and a lady that was drawing. A young man was studying and there was a free flow of light and space if that makes sense. Ian, the barista, greeted me as I walked to the counter to order my beverage. I let him know it was my first time and that I wanted something cold and refreshing. Ian recommended the golden chamomile blossom, botanical with added honey. It was a great recommendation indeed. They prepare their drinks to order so you are not getting tea or coffee that has been sitting all day. As Ian was waiting for my tea to steep and to savor the flavor, I was able to soak in all that blockhouse had to offer. Ian gave me the quick history of Blockhouse and the building strip. What is so cute is Block house offers a downtown Richmond map that displays a walking tour so you can learn about the city. There is outdoor seating in the front of the shop and there is a deck and a lot of land behind it. The owners have put a playground type structure so families and their pets can enjoy. The atmosphere screams family and community which simply added to the stars. My beverage was just what I needed: cold, natural and refreshing. I will go back if I am in the area and just may do the self-guided walking tour to learn as I sip. I recommend this location to study, enjoy the neighborhood, give the kids some outdoor play and sip a good beverage.

Iced vanilla Latte

Really enjoy going to this little neighborhood coffee shop! My go to order is an iced vanilla latte- love that they make their vanilla syrup in house! The coffees are always perfectly sweetened. I believe they make a few other syrups as well, which is a nice touch! They have a little quiet section for working or studying and the WiFi is great. Haven't had a chance to try the food out yet, but I see many people ordering pastries with their coffees so they must be good. Parking can be a little tough on the weekends, but people are always coming and going, so you're bound to find a spot eventually. :) Check this place out next time you're in the area!

Stopped by Block House on a busy, rainy day and was instantly greeted with warm smiles and fast service. Grabbed a BEC croissant to go and sat next door at the cozy bookstore bar -- no exaggeration, it was the best breakfast sandwich I've had. Can't wait to come back for the full sit-down experience!

I really wanted to like this place. They have the right vibe and the service was friendly enough but the coffee disappointed. I ordered 2 large iced mochas with almond milk for myself and my husband and an "adult grilled cheese" that we split. The grilled cheese was delicious - fresh off the panini press. However, the coffee was bitter and warmer than lukewarm (as if the milk had not been kept refrigerated). I had gotten the items to-go and didn't taste them until we were well on our way to our destination for the day or I would have kindly asked for them to have been remade. What's frustrating about the experience is that I've been wanting to try this place for quite some time but it's a bit of a drive out of my way and we just happened to be in the area this day. I'd love to give them another try but I'm not sure when I'll get the chance.

Been here a few times now. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. They called my order out to let me know it's ready for pick up at the counter. However they noticed that my child was keeping me pretty busy so they brought it over instead. Also, if you are a coffee snob, definitely try their coffee here. It'll make you want to travel for it. Thankfully I don't live too far away to be able to stop by more often than I'd like to admit.

Avocado toast

Ok so I tried a different food item again today but what's up with the one girl and her attitude and/or the lack of enthusiasm to treat customers a little better? Rhetorical question but still. Ive come here the last 2/3 weeks and she's always been unpleasant. Doesnt speak and today she threw my bagel on the counter. Lol wow. All the other employees are always super nice even if they are having a bad day, you cant tell. I guess this is a reminder of my first encounter. Thanks for helping me make the choice to save money and make coffee at work from now on. Lol

Twas a very good one and I enjoyed the service very much! :) Definitely I can come back again! Keep up the good work Cheers

Bacon egg bagel
Elena W.

My first time here. Service was extremely nice and polite. My vanilla latte was okay and the bacon egg bagel I ordered was extremely underwhelming. The bagel wasn't good. The outdoor seating is nice and family friendly.

A review from my daughters:…read more My previous times coming here was amazing, the food is AMAZING and the service is very great. The people are very nice. The area is very great. The environment is very nice and the chairs are comfortable. I would definitely recommend this place for families with younger kids and even for family diner nights. Good food and very respectful to you would rate this 10/10.

I do want to mention that our waitress was wonderful. She was friendly, attentive, and provided…read moreexcellent service throughout our visit. She was the highlight of our experience, and my disappointment is solely with the food, not the service. I truly appreciate her kindness and professionalism. (The one star is because of her) I was really looking forward to trying the Dirty Bird, which is advertised as their signature Nashville hot chicken and waffles, but it was a major disappointment. The chicken tender wasn't spicy at all, so it completely missed the mark for Nashville hot chicken. The gravy tasted more like cream of mushroom soup than a flavorful chicken gravy, and it soaked into the waffle almost immediately, leaving it soggy instead of crispy. Overall, the flavors didn't work together, and this dish fell well below my expectations, Unfortunately, this experience was enough that I won't be returning or recommending this restaurant to others.

I stopped here after lunch to grab a cup of hopefully decaf coffee. But they only have decaf for…read morethe hot drinks but I wanted something cold so instead of their usual three shots espresso I had one shot. I like how the staff was directed to the point, quick and easy to explain the ingredients. She even asked if I prefer my drinks more sweeter or more bitter to help create my drink. And I loved my drink. It came out perfectly, and I wish I have this place near my house. Unfortunately, the drawback is that I don't smoke so the cigar smell was pretty strong for me. However, since I took it to go, I was on there for a few minutes and that's all. Of course, I walked in knowing that and that's fine. It's a interesting shop. I've never seen a cigar and coffee place before it definitely looks like a place that people will just sit here and chill/talk but it's more geared towards smokers and older audience. It's definitely different from your usual coffee shop. There's free street parking out front.

I absolutely love this place. Always have I just wasn't aware the coffee bar closes at 3. But we…read moreactually got to sit and have a cigar instead met a couple ppl there as well. It was such an exciting experience! There's an employee there a younger fellow who was so attentive and explained so much to us. I loved it! Ppl come in here and get to talking about life and experience it's always a pleasure!
