I've been a loyal customer of this place for years, always enjoying my coffee and browsing their cute stuff. But my recent experience left me deeply disappointed. I finally found something I couldn't resist two weeks ago, but when I got it home, it just didn't fit right. Not a problem, I thought, since their flyer clearly stated returns and exchanges were welcome within 30 days. Yet, when I tried to return it before the deadline, the manager shut me down coldly, insisting they only accepted returns within 7 days. I had also noticed they had new flyers out at the register that were different than the one they had given me. She even had the audacity to claim they've had the same policy for the past 7 years and spoke to me as if I was crazy. For a second I thought I must have read it wrong and let her be rude and just walked alway. I had to drive all the way back home to fetch the flyer just to prove her wrong. And instead of admitting fault, she brushed it off as a mistake and kept arguing and making excused that I later also found to be wrong. Instead of being nice and apologizing which is soso easy she decided to gaslight me when I Was literally shaking since I absolutely hate confrontation and having to defend myself. It's heartbreaking that a store I once loved for its charm and pricey items would treat its loyal customers with such disregard and disrespect. read more

I love stopping by Forth & Nomad to pick out cute cards and coffee! They typically carry Kofeeteria baked goods so there's no going wrong with their coffee bar! While stopping by I noticed a candle making class and thought it would make for a great date night. The staff was incredibly kind, accommodating and knowledgeable. While we were there, there was one other couple that was socially distanced from us while we made our candles. You could easily purchase a candle for much less, however the experience of creating a scent, naming the candle and enjoying each others company was well worth it! I would highly recommend looking into a candle class or purchasing an at home kit! read more

The cutest little coffee shop! Easy to find parking. Went around 1pm on a Friday - there was no line/ wait, and it was the perfect atmosphere (not too dead, not too busy). The staff was patient while we skimmed the menu, and our drinks were ready within 5 minutes. While our order was pretty basic - an iced vanilla latte and an iced caramel latte with oat milk - I have to admit the coffee was FANTASTIC. You get a relatively large volume of beverage compared to other coffee shops in the area that charge a similar rate. Will be back to visit again :) read more

Forth & Nomad is a cute business that has its own boutique and coffee shop inside the store. They are open all week, but close on the holidays. The atmosphere brings in a good vibe. The interior design and the place itself is very cute. With the coffee shop being at the front, you can shop for the many things they have. The business has a feel good lifestyle brand, which comes with many items, such as clothing for kids (boys and girls), toys, books, trays, and rollers. As for women, they have different types of crop tops, skirts, dresses, pants, jumpsuits, and shorts. They also have gorgeous jewelry and accessories such as headbands, claw clips, sunglasses, and different types of bags. Not only this, but they also have different types of beauty skincare, makeup, lotion, and more things for your wellness. When it comes to the coffee shop, they sell many drinks such as espresso coffee, batch brews, Coca Cola, tea, hot cocoa, baked goods from Koffeteria and Magnol French Bakery, etc. All this you can obtain at good fair prices, not only are the items at the store good, but the employees and barista are super friendly. The store has a lot of things to check out and offer unique products. I definitely suggest you have a look and experience the shopping at this business, you might find something very nice. After shopping you can stay at the store to relax. There are a few tables, chais, and also a couch to sit at and do some reading or work. There is also a small outside set up which would be great to be at with the perfect weather to enjoy the view and air. It is not only a fun store to shop at but also a relaxing place to enjoy your own time or with others as well. The store is popular for having travelers over, it is simple, cozy, and usually quiet which would be perfect for those who do not like to interact much with others and like to be alone. I would also like to mention their candle bar that is an exciting event and experience to have. This is where guests make two scented candles of their choosing that have unique scents within them. You will have to book an appointment for this (usually open on Thursday, Friday, Saturday, or Sunday), but it is an enjoyable time to experience, especially when going with your loved ones. You can also enjoy complimentary drinks while making the candles, which makes it so much better. read more

I would give 5 stars for the ambience of this place because it is SO well designed - very aesthetic, trendy, and just overall visually stunning. The concept itself is unique because it's an indoor market of locally handcrafted goods! You won't be bored here since there's so many things you could browse and shop for, definitely reminds me of boho and chic boutique stores in Austin. I visited this place just for their coffee bar after passing by it a couple times and hearing good things from my friend. The honey lavender latte that I got, which was one of their specials, was NOT strong at all and tasted super diluted. I really wanted to love this drink because my favorite type of coffee is a lavender latte but this tasted so light and was almost like drinking water! I could not really taste the honey, nor the lavender, and the espresso itself was also not strong at all. Very disappointed in their drink but the store itself is a different story. I would come back for their handmade soaps, candles, and home goods! The scents they have are very unique and smell really amazing. I also love the artistic ceramic pieces they had like bowls, cups, and plates. Definitely expensive but super cute and Pinterest board worthy. There are plenty of parking spaces outside but there's limited seating inside with a couple couches and a high rise table with plugs, so not the most ideal place if you're looking to study or concentrate, but great for getting some work done if you're nearby. read more

I love this space! So cute and chic and inside with locally sourced clothing and goods. This instantly became my new favorite Houston store. The clothes and goods are beautiful and I wish I could buy it all! They have events weekly which are great for making friends and networking. My friend and I attended the coffee throwdown and it was so much fun. At our first visit to the store Morgan was so welcoming and showed us around. She also gave my friends some free beer! There is a barber and coffee bar on site. Not only is this a store, it's a creative space. I love the atmosphere and vibe. I highly recommend checking it out while you are in the Heights! read more

We absolutely love Forth and Nomad. Our go to coffee is iced vanilla latte with oat milk. All of their kids stuff issuer stylish. The vibe and interior is extremely inviting. I could definitely hang out there for hours. Location is walking distance to a few spots which make it convenient to grab a coffee or shop and grab lunch across the street. read more

So happy for this awesome couple. Loved their original Smaller store and was so excited to see the new one. I went to the grand opening and got some free goodies yay. This is my favorite spot to buy jewelry. Always unique and always a great price. Omg the workshops that they do are so so so great, thank you so much for bringing this to the community. Seriously my fav spot in the heights. And they have coffee on Saturdays! read more

Forth & Nomad - Store front - Accessories Near Me - Houston, Texas

We wanted to do their candle bar for a bachelorette, but last minute had to move to a virtual party. They were so accommodating and flexible as I communicated with the other girls in the party to get candle take-home kits put together! And they have such a joyful, respectful staff. Great experience!! read more

I really wanted to do candle making as an activity with my bachelorette party and a Google search brought up Forth and Nomad. They were very responsive through Facebook messenger, and assured me that they would be able to refund a class spot if I were to have any no shows since we were such a large group. You can only book up to 10 people, but if you contact them they might be able to accommodate a few more in their workshop space. We had 8 people in our group and were able to fit comfortably. The heavy lifting part of the candle making is already done for you, you really spend more time creating your custom scent, and naming your candle. Our group was completely fine with that! It was very easy, and it was a lot of fun figuring out the scent combinations we each wanted. The candles do take 1.5 - 2 hours to dry, so we actually just picked our candles up the next day. The store itself is absolutely beautiful, and there were some nice areas where we were able to take some group photos. Wine and beer is served throughout the workshop which is a nice touch! For any coffee lovers or non-drinkers there is a little cafe at the front of the store. I really love the store mission of supporting local artists and their work. Definitely recommend if you're looking for some beautiful local goods from Houston, or need a fun group activity. read more

I love this shop so much! I came here specifically for a cup of coffee, which happened to be the best coffee I've ever had. This barista knows how to make an americano. The coffee choice they use is perfect. It can be hard to find a great cup of coffee with amazing service like here. I'm so impressed by Forth and Nomad. I was unsure if they had an outdoors area to relax at but I was soon assured that they do. They have a beautiful front area and a shaded back area with a few tables. The music playing was a choice no one could disagree with. Pure bliss. Other than the amazing coffee and relaxing area to drink it at, the indoor shop was amazing as well. The parfumerie area featured the most amazing scents. The handmade cups and plates were tastefully beautiful. The clothing options were so nice. The jewelry was amazing to look at. The cards were so creative and a joy to look through. What a great establishment! read more

Went for their birthday the other day. (Hilarious that stores have birthday parties - love it.) Got a beautiful candle and a smashing coffee. Shop for great Xmas presents and treat myself with a latte? Yes, please! read more

What a great store that shows off many different, artistic concepts that Houston locals have to offer! It is extremely well-curated and beautifully laid out to display the different vendors and artwork. They provide many different kinds of workshops that cater to a variety of artful hobbies. The staff are lovely and very helpful for whatever you may be looking for! Definitely go and check it out if you're ever in the Houston area! read more

I had never heard of Fourth and Nomad until my friend Dominique suggested we go and check out their candle making class. I arrived before she did but the team members made sure I felt welcomed. Andy was our instructor and he was as sweet as pie!! He was really informative and patient, and our candles came out amazing. The store is beautifulllllll, and the product is of awesome quality. Would highly recommend that you guys check out their boutique! read more

I received a gift from this store and decided to bring the gift in and exchange it. After finding the new item I wanted, I went to the counter where they asked if I had a gift receipt, which unfortunately the gift giver had not put in the bag. They asked the date the items were purchase, which obviously I didn't know. They asked the gift givers name and after checking their system, told me they could not find all the items from the purchase under the persons name, but that they had just gone through a POS change and it could be that. Basically after this back and forth exchange, they said there was nothing they could do without a gift receipt or the date of the purchase of the items. I was dumbfounded simply because I was not asking for a refund, just a simple exchange. The items were in a bag from the store and were all originally packaged with price tags still attached actually. I have literally never had that happen to me at ANY retail store EVER, large or small. Very disappointing and unfortunate for them because they lost at least one potential future customer right here. Buyer beware!! read more

Super fun to go and check out what they have! The pottery, jewelry, hair accessories, and unique food items were really fun to peruse. I did not get a chance to try the coffee but the menu looked good! If you are looking for something to do in the afternoon and want to add some fun items to you home, I would recommend! read more

Fantastic beautifully curated selection of local goods. The owners are helpful and attentive. Love it all!

This is such a lovely little shop in the new Heights Mercantile. I love the variety of things they carry--beautiful ceramics, leather goods and some of the most unique jewelry in the area! This is such a welcome addition to the neighborhood and I'm so pumped to get gifts down the street that are actually made from people who live here. #SLGT read more

Forth and Nomad is a great shop in a fantastic location. The owners are amazing and so friendly. Every time I've been here I have had a great experience. They are constantly adding new things to the space which makes me want to go back more and more often. If you're in Houston you should definitely go check this place out, and if you're there at the right time you can attend a candle making workshop! read more

Love this place. The vibe takes me to a cleanse but rustic atmosphere that it is really hard to find in Houston. Also they carry cool local brands and the selection of backpacks is to die for. The owners are super nice and very involved with the business. Also they have a coffee stand that is also serve by experienced baristas. Great place for gift shopping! Love it! read more

love the space - very Austin-feel we did the candlemaking workshop. so much fun and such a reasonable price as you get two beautiful candles with customized scents. read more

This store is full of handmade goods from local artisans in the Houston/Austin areas as well as other surrounding Texas towns I'm sure. Everything is beautifully displayed. The prices are on the higher end but it's what you would expect for handmade goods. I bought a painting that I plan to hang in my office but found some others I would like to purchase for my kitchen in the future. It's also a fun store to browse for ideas. One of the owners was there and was very helpful, friendly and kind. read more
