I still love this place. Quiet ambiance, good spot for reading or study or work. The inside is well lit, and if you're lucky, you'll get a spot by the window with the natural sunlight. Otherwise, you can also venture out in their outdoor patio.. a bit warmer there. I like their Chan or Vampire and wish they don't run out that often. Cafe de olla is available too. Some pastries, empanadas or tamales too. Ok wifi, some plugs. Don't look at some seats being in bad shapes. They are surprisingly comfortable and most tables don't wobble. Great vibes. Parking is sufficient. Love it here. read more

New favorite coffee/study spot in Houston! This place is (I think?) in Montrose area, and a gem with parking both in front (with spaces) and street parking available. The baristas/servers are so friendly, and the shop truly feels homey. Perfection for studying, with inside ample tables/chairs with nearby outlets as well as some comfy chairs and a couch. There's also a cute covered outside area which I'm sure I'll experience post summer time. They have a few yummy looking food options at a great price point - including tamales and baked pastries. I picked the chicken tamale as a light lunch - I got the most delicious chicken tamale I've had thus far, served with kettle crinkle chips and a tamale sauce to dip. There are many coffee/non coffee options. I opted for the iced horchata latte - agree with prior reviewers that this is delish. It is not too sweet and a great blend of vanilla and cinnamon that masks the espresso. The atmosphere here is cozy but focused, with a mixture of people working/studying and hanging out. 10/10 will be back. read more

Campesino is one of my favorite cafes to study at in Houston! There is ample seating, it is oftentimes very quiet (though if you do want to chat that is no problem at all) and the wifi is good. It is in a home-like structure with quirky furniture, but it makes me feel very much at home. The workers are also super nice and accommodating. The coffee is very reasonably priced and delicious. I always get their Horchata Latte---it is a perfect level of sweetness and the cinnamon complements the espresso perfectly (and it's only $5.50)! They have a variety of other drinks and pastries too, that I haven't been able to try. I highly recommend coming to study/catch up with a friend. There's a lot of coffee shops in the Montrose area but this has been one of my favorite. read more

The interwebs had recommended Campesino to our friend, and so we put it on the list. We came in around 1PM on a Tuesday and were able to grab a table for the three of us. On recommendation from the barista, I had their horchata latte with oat horchata. This was really nice - not too sweet and very smooth. My husband had a straight up regular horchata. I opted for the chicken tamale and our friend had the bean tamale. I liked his tamale better, but really only because I'm a sucker for a bean puree. If I was a local, Campesino would be a great place to get some work done - the coffee is good and the space is pretty large and equipped for working. read more

One day, I finished my doctor's appointment and got really craving for coffee. I pulled out my phone and found a coffee house nearby. I started driving towards it but didn't realize it was at the other side of the parking lot. I was so glad that I found this quaint coffee house. Campesino was within walking distance. Me and my friend ordered coffees. He got a specialty coffee and I got a simple drip coffee with a splash of almond milk without extra charge. Service was okay. The atmosphere was okay. There were not many pastries to eat with my coffee. So, we went to Voodoo Donuts for something sweet. Most of seats were taken around 10 am. We didn't stay. All I can say is that I'll be back soon. read more

I come here almost every day! I love supporting a Central American business & their horchata iced coffee is my favorite. That being said, if Will is still working there I will not be returning. He was rude, disrespectful and would not share the bathroom code with me even after my purchase. This is extremely sad as I have grown to have a relationship with Dulce who always makes my visits enjoyable whether I am there to have coffee and lunch while I work or just grab go! Still giving this 5 starts because it's my favorite coffee shop and I hope to return as long as I do not see Will there. read more

Campesino, my beloved........... shout out Julian for always making the best freakin iced honey lattes for me for the last like 5 YEARS!!! How wonderful to walk into a place and be a regular. If I ever move away, my memories of Houston will be filled with yellow walls, hundreds of books read and paragraphs written at a booth in the front, and the smiling faces of other regulars who just get it. LONG LIVE CAMPESINO!!!! I LOVE Y'ALL!!!!! read more

campesino really makes you feel at home. there's plenty of seating with a mix of tables, couches, and comfy corners, which makes it easy to settle in for a while. the cafe de olla was a great pick me up, with warm spices and a subtle sweetness, though i do wish it was a bit stronger! they were out of conchas when we went, so we tried a pumpkin empanada instead, but it was a bit too sweet for my liking. overall a nice place to hang out or study with friendly service :) read more

My friend and I ventured into Midtown for Easter weekend for the first time. We were afraid nothing was open due to the holiday but luckily pretty much everything there was open. I of course was in search of good coffee and we looked on yelp. Camp was calling our name & I am glad we answered! Loved loved loved my cafe con leche!! Been drinking the stuff since I was little & this was so smooth; so good I wanted to take another one to go after enjoying it inside. I had bought coffee beans they had on hand & one of their selections was from Guatemala. Everyone behind the counter was super nice & courteous, and the gentleman that rung me up for coffee offered to grind the beans & asked me how I usually brew it to see the consistency it needs to be done at, which I really appreciated! With every bag purchase, you get a free coffee! Rustic design, keeping the touches of what once was a creaky wooded house, making it a cozy spot to talk, work, & relax! read more

We weren't greeted when we walked in, and both the baristas and the staff at the register seemed disengaged. They came across as lethargic and unenthusiastic and the coffee itself was just as underwhelming, bland and forgettable. Been here a couple times before and it's always the same lame vibe. 2 stars because my friend enjoyed her tamale. read more

This spacious, El Salvadoran-owened coffee shop reminds me of a Gryffindor Common Room. There's so many nooks and different kinds of seating to suit your work session with plenty of natural light streaming into the huge windows facing either the street or backyard patio area. At 8am on a Thursday the space was not full at all and the associates were friendly and welcoming. I appreciated most the straightforward menu with lots of specialty (super unique!) options. They have a 15% discount during Happy Hour from 7-9pm Mondays through Thursdays. My lavendar iced latte made with oatmilk was tasty and potent -- just what I needed to power through the end of a work week! I also appreciated the dedicated parking. read more

I had heard about this coffee shop so I was excited to finally check it out. It did not disappoint! I came here on a Sunday and it was pretty busy but I was able to get a table. They have free Wi-Fi so almost everyone was on their laptops because it is a great space to get some work done. You can choose from sitting at actual tables or more comfy sofa seating. When you walk in, you place your order at the counter. I decided to go for the Tamale de Elote and the Horchata Latte. I AM OBSESSED! They were both sooo good! Just like the food, the service was great as well! I am definitely coming back! read more

I've heard great things about Campesino from both my Yelp and non-Yelp friends, both of whom suggested that I give this place a try even if I'm not a big coffee drinker. Sure enough, I very much enjoyed my visit on a Saturday afternoon while catching up with a friend. This small shop sits on the corner of a residential block and would easily be mistaken as a home if not for the number of cars parked right outside. The vibe is cozy with a garden variety of seats to choose from, as in typical Montrose fashion. The inside seats offer plenty of ambient light through every wall, or you could enjoy some direct sunlight in the backyard with both shaded and unshaded areas. The horchata deserves just as much praise as the welcoming atmosphere. Their unique and delicious recipe sets it apart from the rest of the beverage businesses in the area. Even more so since it's only $4 for a tall glass -- a rare find anywhere these days, let alone Montrose. I can't ask for more out of a non-caffeinated drink. What a cool place to read, work, socialize, or all of the above! Very few coffee shops can match the versatility that this one offers. read more

This was one of the first coffee shops I went to when I moved to Houston! Their cafe de olla is delicious, the service is always great, and it was a cozy vibe that makes it a perfect space to get some work done or to visit with friends. The parking isn't the best, but it's doable. I love the clay mugs used and the coffee is great! read more

I wanted to eat breakfast type but not heavy and something to sit and chill and FOUND a cute little place!!! Mexican coffee!!!! Yes!!!!!! Cafe de holla and horchata iced coffee, and let me tell you about the pastries PAN MEXICANO to be exact!! Pan Dulce, and tamales OMG!! We ordered a pork tamale and cafe de holla and horchata ice coffee and empanada "guava" and chocolate and almonds muffin yummmmm!!!! Can't wait The service is excellent! The young man makes you feel welcome and is very chill when taking your order and the ambiance is very chill friendly homie!! I loved it!! The horchata iced coffee is good, I wished it was stronger! And had some thickness to it but it was still a good drink! The cafe de holla is missing the piloncillo and the coffee smell and taste is just coffee... try adding cinnamon and piloncillo.. that's the authentic Mexican cafe de holla. The pastries were good, soft, sweet and filling yum The tamal was perfect! Authentic Oaxaca taste!!! And it accompanied with chips and bottle salsa like in Mexico! I wished they had the yucca, I really wanted to try them. They have just regular potato chips and that ok The chocolate muffin is so moist and delicious!! They warmed it up and it made the top almonds and muffin toasty and that is a plus!!! I enjoyed it, so you know the place is an old house and I loved how they kept the walls dividing the rooms!!! With no doors, privacy and homey vibes read more

Love the way it looks like a cute cottage or house. The patio is gorgeous. Their empanadas are delicious. They have a variety of coffees. I get the Mexican mocha. Their pastries are good too. Very authentic. The ambience is my favorite. It's not too loud not too quiet. There are tables where you can use your computer and there are couches where you can read books and catch up with friends. It's the only place I know that's not crazy loud or way too quiet and just when you think you've seen it all if you keep walking down the hall, there are more seating areas. The parking is insanely, huge and easy to maneuver. I love this place. Next time I'll remember to take a picture. I usually scarf down my food so quickly. read more

No nuts in the coffee! I met a friend here and it was pretty full on a Sunday afternoon. There's seating indoors and a larger area in the back. You order and pick up at the counter. I had to park on a nearby street. Lovely, flavorful coffee at a reasonable price WITH a free refill? Perfect for catching up with a friend or a first date. It's a great spot that I'd definitely return to. read more

The coffee is good and the cozy vibe is what coffee shops in this town are missing ! Service is slow and outdoor seating is not great though... Parking: There is plenty of parking ! You can park in the lot of on the street. They also have a bike area Seating: There are a lot of cozy couches/ seats inside the main part of the house. The rest of the space has 2 top tables and 2/3 group tables. Unfortunately the 2 tops are seem to get taken by individuals , which cuts the seating in half (especially since the tables are quite small so sharing can be a challenge). They do have a large side patio with plenty of additional seating but it needs some TLC. The tables wobble and there's basically no shade/coverage (there were 2 broken umbrellas when I came). Drinks: I got the cafe con leche and it was amazing ! I love that they have south American coffee and food. The coffee specifically is delicious and makes it stand out from the rest of the coffee shops in Houston Service: The service is lacking. On a Sunday late morning they only had 2 people lacking. Orders were taken very slowly and people were waiting around the order area for quite a while. They wouldn't call drinks out loudly either so there was confusion when people tried to get their items. If they added names to the orders and projected more this would help out a lot. Other things: I don't think they had the AC on inside which made it very hot... They have single stall bathrooms They do have a ramp from the parking so it seems to be wheelchair accessible Overall it's a cute place and the coffee is good but they could do some things to make the space a bit better (especially the patio which would help with seating!) read more

The ambiance from the moment you step inside is tranquil, serene and quiet-- I just KNOW I'll finally be able to finish coding and develop my software skills even more by visiting more frequently and not having my annoying anxious avoidant neighbor trying to start a conversation every 5 minutes in the common space area of where I reside. I can finally sip my coffee in peace and get some work done at the same time. Latina owned business and I look forward to returning again! El cafe de olla tastes just as if I made it at home, fresh y con un toque de canela traen el pan dulce del "El Bolillo", the best spot to buy pan dulce in Houston in my humble and ferocious foodie opinion. Como Hispana, y mas que nada, Mexicana y Cubana, a good cup of coffee is hard to find up to my standards... but this spot passes the test. It reminded me so much of my usual favorites in Austin, TX. This is one spot you do NOT want to miss within the Houston city limits for good pan dulce y un cafecito for the road . read more

Came here to work for a bit and really liked the vibe. It feels super cozy and intimate. The tables are pretty small but can fit 2 people with laptops back-to-back. I ordered the horchata iced latte, and it was okay. It wasn't that flavorful and unfortunately tasted a bit watered down, but maybe it was because of the ice. The Wifi and bathroom password/code can be found on the receipt after purchasing something. The WiFi is pretty weak, but may depend on how many people are connected.

We stopped by for an afternoon pick me up on a Friday and there was plenty of street parking, more than enough seating inside and in their outdoor patio, and a ton of drinks to choose from.

I also grabbed a guava empanada on the way out and it was delicious! read more

A home turned into such a cute cozy coffee shop with delicious coffee. There is limited parking in front and the side of the building. There is a new big parking lot behind the coffee shop that you are able to park at. Multiple sitting: bar style, couches, table seating, and patio seating. If you enjoy your coffee there then you get a mug to enjoy it in. I loved the cafe con leches. No hint of bitter coffee and not sweet. Deliciousness in a cup.

What a cute place to grab coffee with a friend and study! I like the cozy, homey feel to this coffee shop. The staff was helpful in helping me select a coffee and pastry item. Pointing out the most popular items and sharing their favorite. While I enjoyed the chocolate muffin quite a bit, the coffee I got was not anything to write home about. It had some subtle hints of honey and cinnamon (felt kind of like a tea at times). It was okay. If you prefer strong/robust flavors for your coffee then I'm not sure this is quite the spot for you. However, if your looking for something simple and smooth to enjoy with friends- this might be for you! Just not for me. read more

There's a lot to appreciate about Campesino Coffee House, which through its neighborhood kkhas garnered plenty of local fanfare over the few years. As an old house that has been converted to a cafe, it has become a casual option for work, study, and even to hang out. One will likely see lots of different walks of life here, along with a solid amount of coffee friendly options They describe themselves as a place that captures the vibe of the early Montrose bohemia with "Latin-centric" menu items. They're not wrong, but the unique pairing along with the cute setup is appealing, and I could see myself making this a regular spot for whenever I"m in need of a place to score some caffeine and some WiFi. The cold brew works wonders for my tired brain and the horchata latte goes down a little too easily. The pork tamal is a nice addition, even if they seem somewhat small for $10. At least they come with some (likely store bought) plantain chips and hot sauce. is fatty with good flavor and I love the bits of potato. It works better as a snack than a meal. I hope they continue to develop the food, since this could be a fun draw for new patrons. Parking is limited out front, but there are plenty of spaces in the back. WiFi is spotty but when in doubt, shoot for network #24. Furniture isn't in the best condition and the interior could use a sprucing up. There are tears in the chairs and many of the mini tables aren't level. Lots of random seating with benches and even street view, but outlets are mainly in the corners. Staff is young and hipster, much like the Montrose faithful who are in and out of this spot. I'll be back ... likely often. read more

Still one of my favorite coffee shops in Houston for the ambiance and affordability. Always try to get here either early or late for good parking and seating. Note that prices have increased recently, however, this is one of the few places with good coffee under $5 still. I usually order the cafe de olla, but tried the campesino cafe con leche for first time which was not bad either. The new mugs are also very cute! read more

This place was a super short walk from my airbnb and the kiddo and I needed to get out for a bit. Campesino was quite busy but lucky enough there was plenty of spaces to sit and hang out. The staff was friendly. They allowed my kiddo to try the horchata before ordering a full one. They served a generous amount in a glass with ice and cinnamon on top. The horchata is also priced at $4 which I believe is fair! I will definitely be back. This place has a homey feel to it that would provide a great working environment. Happy Yelping! read more

Campesino is such a homey cafe complete with a fireplace, although like Cloud 9, it's non-functioning. My friend and I found it by happenstance after eating at Piggy's. It was a chilly night, and we wanted to grab a cup of coffee before walking around Buffalo Bayou park. There's plenty of various seating styles depending on your purpose. Bar stools to chill and mingle. Sofas to relax...and mingle. Counter and table seating to do solo work or study with a group. This cafe has it all. Service was friendly and informative. Their pastries come from El Bolillo, and there's a small assortment in the display case at the counter where you order. I had a plantain muffin, which was a bit dry but tasty. It wasn't strong like banana bread. I don't really like bananas, so I was pleased. It wasn't overly sweet either. I had the Campesino cafè con leche, which is the cafè de olla with cinnamon, honey, and steamed oat milk. I love oat milk and pretty much only drink that, so I enjoyed this bevy. I could taste the dash of cinnamon, and it was not too sweet with the honey. It was served in a to-go cup. We sat on the sofas to warm up and enjoy our coffees and pastries after eating outside on the patio at Piggy's before our walk. It definitely was a nice change from your average Starbucks or coffee shop with the Latin coffee beans and music. read more

Review #800 Discovered this spot during a recent Houston visit. A former house repurposed making for a variety of cozy seating/lounging options. Outside seating in front and on the side also. I visited multiple times and with the exception of one visit, they were full. Favorite speciality coffee is the Horchata Iced Latte. Vanilla and Cinnamon play nicely with Espresso and make this a perfect hot weather drink. Enjoyed the Cafe Con Leche also. The sweet Empanadas were a big hit with the family. Guava (sweetest) and Pineapple were the favorites. Enjoyed the Choripan for lunch and the Chimichurri and hot sauce along with the Plantain Chips on the side take this sandwich over the top. Saw they have breakfast sandwiches and tamales-next time. Service was excellent with engaged and service minded people making some delicious coffee drinks and food. Don't miss this Montrose Gem. read more

The owner wants to dispute what happened, you were not there, sir. You have no idea what happened. I am sure you have been fed a false story by your "Supervisor". Will was extremely aggressive in his speech and his manners, and I would never return to your establishment anyway. A black sun tattoo? Where? Again, you were not there, you did not see me, so I am confused as to where your information is coming from. I advise you to check your security cameras. I also find it funny that you're commenting weeks later, after having my girlfriend's review removed. Additionally, the "Supervisor" claimed he "forgot" to refund my tip that I left immediately upon ordering my food (being a generous customer and all). I had to return to get my tip refund. I'm sure he didn't tell you that part. Do better. read more

Met someone up for some coffee here and really was digging the vibes here! It looks like an older house turned into a coffee shop, which explains the name of the place. A lot of reviews use the word cozy to describe this place, and I can not think of a better word as it is just that. It looks as if they kept everything original in there and just put in a work space to make coffee. There are comfortable chairs and tables all over to enjoy your tasty orders. If I were a studying or reading kind of guy, this would be the place I would come. They had E.T. playing when we were there, so extra brownie points for that! As always, I didn't know what I wanted, so the very friendly young lady behind the counter gave me great suggestions. The menu is described as a Latin perspective on Montrose coffee culture. Everything on the menu had just that. I ended up with an Horchata Iced Latte. The milky, cinnamoney drink that I loved as a coffee drink was outstanding. I could taste the cinnamon and vanilla even with the two shots of espresso, Everything was so well balanced. She got a Café Cubano and it was tasty. It's a tiny, but mighty drink. It will definitely perk you up. I am always on the lookout for great coffee shops and this one totally fit the bill. I will be back for sure! read more
