    Dirty Brown Sugar Milk Tea
    Lynn D.

    Drinks are pretty good. They offer board games in the back. Nice and quiet on weekdays. Medium size groups of 4-6 people can enjoy sitting and chatting. However, the tables are small. If you wanted to study as a group or play elaborate games where you need a larger table, you would need to push the tables together. (Obviously, don't be a d*ck and push them back afterwards.) STUDY Fast, free reliable wifi. The wifi password is upfront where you order. There's plenty of outlets to charge your devices.

    Plenty of parking and nearby lotsa food places like ramen, Korean corn dogs, sandwich shops. The space is big and allows for sitting and hanging out. There's a shelf with board games. Clean bathrooms. Consistent boba tea and friendly owners. We came on Rex's birthday party.

    Very clean establishment, nice service, refreshing matcha green tea latte! I finished mine quick, I should've gotten a large. Definitely beats Starbucks. Nothing more or less to say, I'd recommend and visit again.

    Terribly sad service. Wanted to try out the new boba place but we left disappointed. We ordered a milk tea and passion fruit slush & a cheesecake that was given to us when we paid. We waited 40 mins for our order to be called for our drinks. We thought it was normal because everyone else was waiting too. After a while I noticed the place started to clear up. I finally went up to the counter to ask & the young lady with glasses asked for my receipt. When she saw my receipt she told me it had been ready but she thought it was missing an item (cheesecake). The slush had melted and my milk tea had separated. We were sitting right in front of the counter. She could've said something! NEVER AGAIN.

    I was really craving boba tea so I came here. The people at the register took a while to take my order because they were more focused on their conversation even though I was right in front of them. I got a milk tea and it spilled because it wasn't sealed all the way. I called and explained the situation and thankfully they were able to give me another one but when I got home and tried the milk tea it wasn't good quality. It tasted like pure milk and it was bitter, not sweet at all. I should've just went to M tea.

    Great atmosphere, drinks, and staff! Definitely a great place to work or study with tons of outlets and light. Try their dirty brown sugar milk tea and a matcha bubble waffle (with a side of milk foam ;))

    Stopped at Karma next door and came here to get a drink. It's new so I wanted to try it out. I got the lemon ai Yu white pearl drink. It was light and refreshing. I didn't know what the ai yu jelly was, so I asked and they offered me a sample. It was a light gelatin, a little softer than jello. I'm not sure how to fully describe it, but I ended up getting the drink it's featured in. The drink had the jelly, white boba pearls (I think it was the same as crystal boba at other places) and a lemon syrup. There were pieces of lemon in the syrup. It was a water based drink, so the syrup was the main flavor. It was like a next level lemonade. They had a few games you could take to a table and play. It's a pretty good sized dining area for a tea shop. I went on the weekend of lunar new year and they were giving red envelopes with surprise coupons inside. I'm happy to see more diverse places opening up closer to my house. I'll definitely be back.

    This is my second time here and the first was for the Lunar New Year's event. It's really cozy location, the staff is very kind and make your orders in a fashionable time! They provide free wi-fi and have several outlets if you need to charge your phone or anything else- this place would really be a great studying space. In the back they provide a few card and board games to play with if you plan to stick around longer with friends and/or family Their drinks are amazing and what I had so far (Peach Yogurt Drink w/ Star Jelly and Cool Mint Milk Tea w/ Pearls) did not disappoint me at all!

    I can't wait to go back, this area is my usual lunch spot so we decided to check it out. The service was AWESOME & the drink was even better! Such a cool, clean place

This cozy café in North…read moreHouston has become one of my absolute favorite places, and honestly, the name fits perfectly! It really is a "must go." From the moment you walk in, the vibe is calm, welcoming, and full of good energy. It's the kind of place where you can instantly relax, whether you're starting your morning or winding down after a busy day. The atmosphere is a perfect mix of modern and homey. The décor is simple yet stylish, the lighting is soft, and the music is never too loud. Every time I visit, it feels warm and comfortable, like a place made for good conversations and quiet moments. The staff always greet me with a smile and take the time to make each order right. They remember faces, favorite drinks, and even ask how your day is going, which makes every visit feel personal. Now, about the coffee, it's incredible! You can taste the difference in quality with every sip. The beans are fresh, and the drinks are smooth, rich, and never bitter. My personal favorites are the iced vanilla latte and the caramel macchiato. Both are balanced perfectly, not too sweet but full of flavor. On cooler days, I love getting their hot mocha or matcha latte. They also offer plenty of non-coffee options, which is great for anyone who just wants something cozy and refreshing. Their food menu is just as impressive. They have pastries, cakes, ice cream, and breakfast options that are always fresh and delicious. The croissants are buttery and flaky, and the muffins taste homemade. I tried their slice cakes once and have been hooked ever since -- especially the strawberry and chocolate ones. Everything pairs perfectly with their drinks, and it feels like the kind of treat you can actually enjoy guilt-free. The shop itself is a great space to hang out or get work done. There's free WiFi, comfortable seating, and plenty of natural light, making it ideal for studying or working remotely. I've spent several quiet mornings there with my laptop and coffee, and it's always peaceful and relaxing. Overall, Must Go Coffee checks all the boxes: amazing drinks, great food, friendly people, and a comforting atmosphere. It's not just another coffee shop, it feels like a community spot that genuinely values its customers. Every visit reminds me why I keep coming back. If you're in Houston and haven't tried it yet, I can't recommend it enough. Whether you're grabbing your morning coffee, catching up with friends, or looking for a peaceful place to relax, Must Go Coffee is the perfect spot. It's easily my favorite coffee shop in the city, and once you visit, I'm sure it'll become yours too.

I've…read moreordered the Wild Pistachio Latte about four times, and it hasn't been as good as the first time I tried it. On one occasion, I also had a not-so-great experience. I understood they were having power issues and were operating on a generator. Their tablet system appeared to be working, as I could see my order while placing it. I was making a large order for my coworkers and needed an itemized receipt. When I asked for one, I was told they couldn't provide it due to the power outage. I then asked if they could pull up my order on the tablet so I could take a photo of it, and I was told "yes, one second." However, after my order was ready and I followed up, the staff member seemed irritated and repeated that they couldn't provide a receipt because of the power issue. I clarified that I only needed to take a picture of the order on the screen, which I thought we had already agreed on. I also didn't realize that every add-on they offer comes with an extra charge. For example, when asked what kind of milk I wanted, it wasn't mentioned that 2% milk (which is typically the default) had an upcharge. Additionally, when a soft top was offered for an iced drink, it wasn't disclosed that it was a $1.50 extra charge. This was frustrating, as these add-ons were suggested by staff without clarifying the additional cost. While the issue was eventually resolved, I left feeling unhappy with the overall experience. I did return once afterward, but between the inconsistent beverages and the lack of transparency around pricing, I don't think I'll be coming back.

One of them even made a stellar to go cup of hot cappucino for me, nice foam artwork. We'll order on line after we finish this bag of beans, it's easier...we enjoyed scoping out this place though.

Both were exceptionally good. The shop is a little off the beaten path, but easy to find and beautiful inside. The employee at the front desk was very friendly and helpful when I showed up unannounced to buy some coffee. According to their Instagram, they offer tours and tastings by appointment, which I plan to do in the near future. They also suggest calling ahead to order your coffee so it will be ready when you pick it up. I recommend doing that because I did have to wait a little while when I popped in to order. I have been brewing the Columbian grounds at home for my bulletproof coffee with ghee, coconut oil, collagen, and stevia and I swear it tastes like brownie batter. I have never had a more smooth, balanced flavor from a roasted coffee bean in my life. I will continue to purchase coffee beans and grounds from Geva as long as they exist and I will always support any coffee shop who brews their coffee as well.

But on a later visit, the customer service was disappointing. The employee taking our order was distracted and chatting with coworkers, and our order was entered incorrectly. When we politely pointed it out, there was no effort to fix the mistake or even acknowledge it--just pushback and a lack of professionalism. Another visit closer to closing time was even more frustrating. The floor had just been mopped with no warning sign, which is a safety concern. When we tried to order, we were told multiple items were already put away, and it felt like we were inconveniencing them just by being there--even though it was still well before closing. Overall, the atmosphere feels unwelcoming at times, and the customer service doesn't match what you'd expect. It's disappointing because the drinks themselves are good, but the experience makes it hard to want to come back.
