    Lavender Dream with almond milk
    Alexandria M.

    Ehh. This place is just ok due to its convenient location near the trail, but the quality of food/drink is average. The menu is limited and doesn't even have the ingredients listed for anything- you have to ask one by one until you find something that sounds good which just made me feel bad for asking what felt like too many questions. The establishment itself is in a modern luxury apartment building which is part of why the prices are pretty high. The cleanliness and customer service was lacking. Parking is subject to availability on the street or in a small side lot.

    I had a mixed experience here. I was staying at the Guild so this coffee shop was super convenient. It's cute too, very modern design and I like that it has couches and outlets to charge! However my first experience here was when I was checking in and had time to kill. I came over to the counter to order and there was no worker around, so I sat down and 5 mins later a guy finally comes. I order an iced VGL and a sandwich because they were out of avocado toast. The order took a very long time AND they burned my sandwich! The food was fine except for the burnt part... If I were to rate off of this experience alone I'd only give it two stars. But the next two times I came by to get coffee and the lady who worked there was much friendlier and faster. I got an iced vanilla oat latte the next couple of times which I liked more than the VGL too. I gave it an average score from my very differing experiences, I guess it depends who is working on that day/time.

    I came here to do some work on my computer and I enjoyed their cold brew. Wi-Fi is provided along with decent amount of seating area. The service was okay. The area is clean, organized, and well-lit.

    This place is super spacious and you can spread out and study. There's outdoor seating as well and dog friendly. Right across from the Katy Trail and you can pop in for coffee and continue on the trail, and right next door to the Katy Apartment and lobby. Parking isn't great, it's under a garage and no one leaves the guest parking on weekends.

    I was staying at the Guild so this place is super convenient. Also convenient if you are finishing the Katy Trail near the AA entrance. Yes, they are short staffed, but that is the world we are in right now, and I don't really feel it should be taken out on small businesses... I ordered a latte, it was good, and the service was friendly. There is a lot of inside seating as well as tables outside.

    This coffee counter and seating is located inside the Katy apartment building. Very quiet with plenty of comfortable seating, big windows, and natural light. Getting into the Katy parking garage was a little complicated (had to do the whole u-turn and loop dee loop thing) but once you do it once, you'll know for next time. The coffee was decent ($5 something for my cold brew), and the quiet and spacious seating area is worth it just for that. Will definitely come back if I'm in the area and need a quiet place to chill.

    Stopped in for a creme brûlée coffee and cinnamon roll. They have quick service and I love that they have the specialty coffee. Cheaper than Starbucks, but much better in my opinion.

    Prerrty barista girl and beautiful espresso machine.

    I absolutely fell in LOVE with this coffee shop in the city!…read more My friend and I decided that after lunch we would find a nice coffee shop to sit and enjoy the rest of our work day! We were on the hunt for a place that had a lot of seating, a good coffee menu and also sold pastries, and Otto's checked off all the boxes! I always say that when you are able to find front parking, also, you are exactly where you are meant to be, and somehow some way, we found just that! We both ended up ordering their wedding cake latte, that we later found out that changes colors based on whatever wedding they are hosting in the hotel they are located in. HOW COOL! The latte was FANTASTIC! I love when a coffee shop serves it in glass when you are deciding to sit for a bit! It felt so welcoming! I also decided to order their pound cake which was FANTASTIC! SO moist and perfect with my latte! However, the true star of the show has to be the ambiance! It's located in downtown in the Adolphus hotel and it is STUNNING inside! You truly get a city coffee shop experience at OTTO's! They had plenty of chairs and tables, as well as plugs! Which made our visit that much more great! Overall, I highly recommend it, and I will definately be back!

    We came here for breakfast while staying downtown, walkable from the hotel which was a big plus. I…read morewould not recommend driving here, parking is a nightmare. Walk if you can. Coffee was decent, nothing to rave about. My cappuccino was served in a paper cup which I was not thrilled about. We were eating inside, not taking anything to go, so there was no reason for that. Paper cups influence the flavor of a hot espresso and I drink mine with no sweeteners specifically because I want to taste the actual shot. The espresso was also slightly burnt, which tells me the machine needs a good cleaning. Iced coffee is a different story but for hot cappuccinos, ceramic makes a real difference. My husband's coffee was good though and he was happy with his. Breakfast sandwiches were the toaster style, similar to what you'd expect from a place without a full kitchen. I genuinely enjoyed mine. My husband was not impressed by his. Overall it was a good enough time. We would not go out of our way to come back but if we were in the downtown area and needed a reliable spot in a pinch, we would stop in again. P.S. My ratings are based on whether I believe I could make a better or healthier version at home. If food/drinks/service impress me, I'll be happy to come back. If not, the stars reflect that.
