For food, I had the vegan green chilaquiles. They were definitely very spicy, but incredibly delicious. The black beans helped balance out the heat, making the dish even better overall.

The atmosphere was amazing, and they were playing Spanish rock!! If you're not familiar with it, don't worry -- it's chill, not loud or heavy. Think Caifanes or Maná, and if it's not your vibe, you can always bring your own headphones! :D Now, onto the food: as someone who loves matcha, the matcha here was really good!! But the avocado toast is the reason why I'm writing this review. I first visited about three weeks ago, and I still can't stop thinking about it. Not to sound corny, but the flavors literally exploded in my mouth. It wasn't your regular avocado toast, so I was a little scared to try it (especially because of the tomatoes), but after the first bite, I felt like I was about to start levitating. I honestly don't know how to explain what it tasted like, but just know that it was delicious! The only small critique would be that it's a bit on the pricier side, but honestly not by much, and the quality makes it worth it!! Overall, you should totally visit this place at least ONCE in your life!!

The staff is consistently warm and genuinely welcoming and they do a wonderful job describing their specials in a way that makes everything sound tempting. The coffee is outstanding, and easily my favorite part of every visit. Their seasonal drinks are always a highlight. On my most recent stop, I tried the Pandan Latte (iced), and it was an absolute standout. It sounded intriguing, but the flavor completely exceeded my expectations. It was rich, unique, and beautifully balanced. It was as visually appealing as it was delicious. While I've enjoyed the quiche in the past, it's the coffee that keeps me coming back every time.

I visited this highly rated coffee shop which is not in a very prime location at the edge of…read morePanther Creek. More like in the middle of a neighborhood. Inside is a plant lover's paradise, with a handful of tables, chairs, couches, benches and a few tables on the sidewalk as well. There is even a wall of plants where you pick up your coffee. The whole theme is sorta 80s with metal file cabinets, a metal flamingo, board games and a chess board. They attempt to make as much as possible in house, like syrups and their food creations. They used to make their own pastries but now reportedly get them from a bakery down in Houston. I tried two fairly unique menu items, the miso caramel iced latte and the cruffin. Iced latte - this is pretty good, but I could barely taste the addition of the miso flavoring. Cruffin - a very interesting pastry that reminds me of a kouign-amaan. This one has a custard filled center though. If you like cinnamon, this is a must order. Overall, this was a good experience and the place was not that busy when I pulled up, but a drove of customers came in right after me and this continued for the entire time I was there. There seem to be a lot of regulars, but also some new customers like me as well.

Today was horrible. The Johnny's Halloween was a big disappointment. No Thai tea from what I…read morecould tell. Just Ube and all the Oreos that are supposed to be at the bottom were all stuck to the wall of the cup instead. The owner said the Ube dissolves the Thai tea after a while. I live half a mile away and it took only three minutes to arrive after placing my order. So no way I believe that story. Also my kid went in to retrieve the drink and she couldn't get it from the servers so I had to go in and get it. 3 of them there. Not a single one helping her in an empty store. Unfortunate seeing as there was no parking and that's why my kid went in to get it while I was waiting in the car. The owner says they asked her if she needed help but she was on her phone. Well my daughter was only on her phone because she was texting me because not a single person helped her. They said nothing to her like they claim. Total lies. If this is the kind of service we're now getting I won't be coming back and it's a shame that the owner doesn't take more pride in their shop.

The young lady at…read morethe front didn't seem like she's ever worked at a tea/boba shop before and when I asked her what she recommended she didn't really give me a good idea. I also asked her what she thought of the mango sago drink and I doubt she's ever tried it by what she even said. Anywho. That's what I ordered. The mango sago drink and my husband ordered a basic taro slush. Both pretty basic drinks. There was no wow factor in either.

This morning we tried Bluestone Lane Café, and it made a great first impression. As soon as you…read morewalk in, you notice how clean and inviting the space is, with the rich aroma of freshly ground coffee filling the air. The vibe is modern and stylish--very "cute," as my wife would say. We were seated right away, and the staff were kind and accommodating throughout our visit. To start, I ordered the Bondi Blue Protein Smoothie while my wife went with the Laird Latte--both were easily 10/10. The kids had orange juice that tasted like it had been freshly squeezed right at the table. For breakfast, my wife chose the Sunshine Burrito, and I had the bacon, egg, and cheese croissant (with extra chipotle mayo on the side). The kids shared the blueberry pancakes with a side of bacon. My wife mentioned the burrito could have used a bit more seasoning, but overall the food was a solid 9/10. I especially loved my croissant, and the kids were big fans of the pancakes. Overall, I'd definitely recommend this spot, and I'm already planning to bring the extended family back to try it.

Management definitely got the staff in line with the right formula for success. This is an A-La-Carte restaurant where you wait to be seated, order and pay at the table. 2. Price - cost is about average. 3. Ambiance - this cafe has cozy beach vibes, bright with natural lighting, vibrant blue colors, with some plants. I can't remember smelling strong coffee smell in the cafe. But I wouldn't mind that. Dress code here is casual. 4. Food - this is a breakfast all day everyday restaurant. Let's go! I recommend their BL Burrito and their B.L.A.T.E. meals. I love the potato wedges that comes with the meal. They have a lot of healthy choices. I have yet to find the coffee that I like. But they pride themselves for their coffee. I need to ask their Barista next time for a recommendation. 5. Cleanliness - dining area and restrooms are always clean and well kept. Good job team for keeping this place in tip top shape! SUMMARY: This is an Australian inspired restaurant from Melbourne, Australia. You can tell by the verbiage in their menu! My wife and I love this place, and we recommend them for breakfast. We will definitely be back.

You know, it gives gourmet without being pretentious. The bakery alone puts Common Bond in this category. If you can resist dessert order from the display case, I'm not sure you're human!

This location is such a score for City Place. The only caffeine dealer apart from Starbucks walkable from the plaza, it's easy to see why patrons choose Common Bond.

Why 5 stars? Because there wasn't much not to like!…read more --- --- --- My wife had a hankering to visit Common Bond and this was the closest location to us. I'd been to one in Houston before, but just for coffee, but I had a good experience there, so I was down to try their food. There were a ton of great sweet and savory options on the menu, so ordering was a challenge, but we ended up grabbing a pretty big combination of both types of sustenance. Savory: I ordered the breakfast burger and it was really great. Normally I feel like an egg takes away from the flavor of a burger, but that was not the case here. I'm really pleased with my choice here, despite the temptation to go with several alternatives. 5-stars. My wife ordered the soft scramble, and I'll give it this: it was most definitely the softest, most gentle collection of eggs I've ever eaten. But I think I like my rendition of scrambled eggs better. 4-stars. Sweet: Pistachio Croissant: All boxes checked. 5-stars. Snickerdoodle Cookie: I offer all of my praise for this delight. 5-stars. Gingerbread whoopie pie: It wasn't called a whoopie pie, but that's what it was. Like the snickerdoodle cookie, I'm mad I had to share this. 5-stars. Coco-nut cookie: We thought this was a chocolate coconut cookie, but it turns out it was chocolate and nuts. Knowing this information, we would have opted for one of the other, more delicious looking cookies. It was still fine though. 3.5-stars. Drinks: I ordered the dragon fruit berry concoction with my meal, and in a rare moment of weakness, I couldn't resist the maple pecan cold brew, despite ordering black coffee 99% of the time. I'm here to say I enjoyed both of them very much, but the latter did taste more like a milkshake than a coffee. 5-stars for both, but I would definitely order the dragonfruit thing again. Way to go, Common Bond. Here I thought you were just a coffee place this whole time, but your food is pretty, pretty good too.

My order came out promptly so little to no wait is expected. The shop shares a space with an indoor pickleball facility, but it's separate from the noise of it all. There are a couple of tables and the typical cafe set up of couches inside, so if you'd like to do some work there, they have the space for that. Loads of parking available as it's in the middle of a shopping center. Plus, it's right off I-45 so it makes for a quick trip when I pass by during my lunch break.

My order: Bahn mi + purple yam and coconut smoothie. Bahn…read moreMi: 10/10 amazing tender beef, fresh pickled carrots and other toppings with enough sauce but not too much to where it makes the bread soggy. Nice and toasted fresh bread. My smoothie: One of the best smoothies I've ever had! The owner uses fresh ingredients, and all drinks are dairy free unless you get any yogurt drinks, so the smoothie didn't upset my tummy not one bit. Due to fresh ingredients being used, the smoothie doesn't separate and get all gross like most boba shop smoothies do. I've visited many different boba shops, and this is one of the best. Many boba shops used flavored sugar powders, non dairy creamers (which still upset people's stomach at times), and liquid sugar; basically a big serving of processed sugars and overly processed ingredients. Not here at King Tea though. The taste, service, and clean shop with a cutesy ambiance was amazing, top notch. Friendly service workers who take pride in their work. I hope this gets the love it deserves, so it can stay open. Please visit king tea and meet the sweetest owner ever!

If you're looking for something lighter they do have simple crepes just with fruit toppings and your choice of Nutella syrup or dulce de leche. They also offer breakfast favorites on brioche buns. (And I'm sure I saw waffles, didn't order but I think they do) Some of the drinks like lemonades are from the machine along with your choice of sodas. For cocktails that's made and brought out to your table. The hot chocolates looked delicious and I'd like to try next time along with their other hot beverages of lattes and teas. Tables were clean quickly and staff are pleasant and always smiling. Great for breakfast brunch or lunch. A plus is the outdoor seating area for a cool morning or afternoon. Not alot of walking traffic so it's nice to sit outside and enjoy your meal.
