I was pleasantly met with such a lovely experience at Katz Coffee. I was in the mood for coffee or a matcha for my afternoon pick me up and stumbled upon Katz Coffee. Located in East Spring Branch, the coffee shop is nestled between supplier stores and warehouses its exterior certainly blends in with its surroundings. However, the interior is quite eclectic, fun, with fond pictures, news articles throughout. I ordered an ice matcha that was delicious! Nice amount of sweetness and this flavor was definitely more nutty compared to others I've tried. To my surprise I took out my card to pay and was told the drinks at the cafe are complimentary. That was such a lovely surprise that I definitely do not take for granted. The employees educated us on the reasoning behind the cafe's mission and naturally I researched more about the company as well. I will certainly patron this cafe and continue to tip, purchase products to support their cause.
Free coffee? Heck yaaaa. I was referred by a friend and had to test the theory. Turns out, the coffee really is free. They're a white-label roaster that distributes to other coffee shops around town, which explains it. The staffs are spectacular, super passionate and knowledgeable about their coffee. The space is an absolute ideal environment for working or studying. It's currently one of my favorite spots to study. And of course, the coffee itself is pretty good too.
Really enjoyed the coffee here - I came in at 9 to do some work and grab a cup of coffee. I got the pumpkin spice latte, which had a pumpkin spice syrup which wasn't too sweet - a perfect balance to the espresso. Extremely generous of the team to provide free coffee for the community. There was a long line already and two baristas making drinks. I would recommend getting to the shop during off hours (mid morning or lunch) if you don't want to wait in a long line, but well worth the wait if you do come during peak hours! Not the best place to work, especially since there is a lack of outlets in the space and the tables are small. I also bought a bag of coffee beans, and they were able to grind them to a moka pot coffee ground consistency! So far, my morning coffees these past few weeks with this blend + moka pot setup have been excellent.
I come here for my coffee beans because it's cheaper than getting them at HEB, they grind the beans for me, and I get complimentary coffee. The staff are also always very nice and helpful. The only con about this place is that the hours are pretty limited. If you work typical office hours, you'll probably never be able to come here because they close by 4pm and are only open on weekdays. I usually order some sweet-sounding latte they have on their seasonal menu, but it's never actually sweet. Much more of a bitter coffee flavor every time. Haven't tried asking for it to be sweeter, so maybe I'll try that next time. They do have a drink station with sugar packets, napkins, and straws though too. Also, remember to bring cash to tip!
I found this place through another coffee shop selling their coffee. There are a couple of other roasters throughout Houston, but this one has a wide selection of different flavors, roasted daily. It is a coffee shop /roaster. You can order whatever is on their menu online either whole Bean or have them grind it. It's a neat little coffee shop. They have a record player inside for music. The staff is really nice. I'll probably be getting my coffee from this place from now on. Elevate your coffee experience. Best By date is not the same as Roasted Date.
Great spot great customer service. You can go to meet someone for a cup of coffee or just to relax by yourself. You can also purchase some of the coffee to take home and make it yourself i recommend visiting
Great customer service, super chill vibe, and the complimentary drinks were a nice surprise. Definitely coming back!
Anyone who knows coffee in Houston, likely knows Katz as one of the biggest local brands. So many of the reviews here are paying tribute to Katz as a product, but my review is actually about the location and the coffee itself. I walked in here completely blind. As a relatively new'ish Houstonian, I had no idea what the big deal was. I saw a highly rated "cafe" on Yelp and decided to come here to knock out some work and stay caffeinated in the process. When I walked in the doors at 9AM, I saw almost no one except one worker. He explained to me they don't sell coffee drinks here, but that they sell coffee beans / bags instead. He pointed to the wall of different coffee blends and said, "That's our money maker. We don't sell drinks though." And I thought I had made a mistake and was about to walk out. He then offered to make me a drink and I then noticed an entire menu of different drinks. "You don't sell drinks here? What's the menu all about?" And it dawned on me: they're free. Buy a bag, drink all the coffee in house you want. Brilliant. So I got a nitro cold brew and sat down to enjoy some of their semi-fast WiFi. There were couches and individual chairs and slowly but surely folks started trickling in and just ordering espressos, flavored lattes, and even their "Houston Strong" medium / dark roast drip. For free. At the very bottom of the dry erase board read: "All drinks are made complimentary + made with liquid love from the Katz fam." I love their various blends that span all around the world including countries like Nicaragua, Ethiopia, Kenya, Honduras, Costa Rica, etc. For coffee lovers, they make for great gifts and they even have special blends for University of Houston fans. I am not even the biggest coffee fan, but they've now got one in me. I plan on being a regular in no time.
Katz Coffee is such a comfortable and amazing place! I love the Machamango Latte -- it's absolutely delicious and I highly recommend it.
I cannot say enough good things about this place. Great service and cute cafe ambience. First tried this when my brother in law sent us coffee for Christmas, so I had to go pay a visit when I was in town recently. They offer two complimentary coffee items when you are there, no catch! They also gave my son a hot chocolate too. Great selection of ground and whole bean coffee. Smooth flavors. Bought a few to take home as well, check out the pics! I've definitely become a fan.
Love this place, they support good causes, make a great product and offer COMPLIMENTARY COFFEE.
I've never been inside the establishment so the review is strictly for the bag of coffee they sell and let me tell you, it's rich, smooth, not bitter and delicious! I've had the Cafe Olla that I bought at Red Oak Cafe in LC and it's one of my favorites. The flavors are chocolate, cinnamon, anise and it contains sugar but not overly sweet! Talk about Christmas in a cup! I recently got the Jumping Mouse Blend from a golf tourney in Galveston and it reminds me of the Milky Way coffee I get at the local coffee shop. I loove it!!! Nutty, caramel, chocolate goodness!! Can't wait to visit in person one of these days!!

Exceptional service with complimentary drinks, free WiFi and an astonishing great taste for authenticity. Was driving around for meetings and happen to stumble upon this hidden gym. Go see for yourself. I had the summer menus Mango Glow Matcha, it was delicious and lit me up. Downside, it's pretty compact and can be extremely loud. Other than that S/O to Jordan amazing barista skills and customer service read more
Dope spot!!! Free coffee and good people!! I do recommend you to check out the beans that they sale though, because that's one of the ways they can offer free coffee. Today I tried a new summer drink, the lemon one!! Yes, lemon and espresso is a thing and it's a good thing! Go try it! Happy Yelping! read more

For the price and quality you can get I would highly recommend this place Their coffee is good enough to make great expresso And the service is decent here I like the lady with glasses on she is so friendly The vibe here is super relaxed This is a wholesale place Not a coffee shop read more
Local coffee distributor in the heart of Houston. Katz coffee is a staple and I'm sure many of y'all have tried there many blends throughout the surrounding local restaurants! Staff here was extremely helpful and gave recommendations and is able to make anything at the coffee bar to meet your caffeine needs! Def a great place to try a cup in their local store front distribution! A must try no doubt! Overall rating: 10/10 read more

Really nice industrial ambiance and eclectic decor. We bought some coffee beans and they grounded them for us which was really great. My sister got the Costa Rica Finca Calle Lajas and I got the Texas Hill Country Pecan. We also got a hot and iced coffee to go! Great place to get some work done! read more
I was excited to go to Katz Coffee for the first time today based on all the great reviews. I waited in line since there was a couple in front of me who had ordered coffee and drinks. When it was finally my turn, I had told the employee it was my first time there. I had wanted to order a bag of coffee and a couple of drinks. He had asked me which ones I wanted but I couldn't remember the names since I had been waiting a while, and walked over to the sign to look at the menu again. An older white man was behind me and had laughed when I made that comment. When I walked back over to the register, the employee was helping that other man with his order, so I guess that meant I had lost my place in line. I sat down on the chair and waited again, but at this point I was so frustrated with the entire experience, I just got up and left. The man was there to pick up some coffee but he clearly had other items he wanted to add to his order. Based on this experience, I wouldn't recommend going to anyone. read more
I can't believe I didn't know about this place until now. Such a great found. They have a warehouse in the back for coffee distribution. The ambiance inside is very cute. The lattes were delicious and the cherry on top is that they're free. Given that they're a wholesaler and roast their coffee onsite. They give out coffee to everyone that stop by. No other coffee place does this even the really big ones. Highly recommend!!! read more

My new favorite place for coffee beans - well priced and delicious. All the employees are super friendly, and I enjoy getting a different bag of coffee beans each time I go. My favorite part (aside from getting my bag of coffee beans) of my visits, is getting a complimentary latte at the same time. 2 birds, one stone! I dig it. Aside from learning more about coffee in general, and about Katz, I've also learned a lot from one of the employees' about espresso machines, which was fascinating. I recently got one, so I am always learning new things. When you purchase a bag of coffee beans, they do have the option of grinding them for you. Not necessary for me, but great to have as an option. read more

I literally had to pull over to type this review after leaving the facility. Will, Amanda and the other two workers were such amazing sources of knowledge. I have purchased a home espresso machine, and will and Amanda have turned my nightmare of a learning curve into a beautiful experience. Will broke down each part of the process to me and gave me more confidence to keep learning and perfecting a good cup of coffee. Overall they have the best coffee I've had to date, great in-house experience and the best customer service I could ask for! read more

I live in another area that doesn't carry the kinds of Katz coffee that we like. Today is the 2nd time we've ordered coffee from Katz and are extremely happy with the quick turnaround and freshness of the coffee. This time around when we ordered it, the coffee was delivered in a couple of days!! Love this coffee it is so fresh and tastes heavenly; it's the only one I can drink that doesn't upset my very finicky tummy!!! Thanks Katz keep up the good work!! read more

First off this place has an amazing service ever! The baristas are super friendly and great vibes. You can tell they love what they are doing with coffee. The coffee is delicious, quick, and smells amazing. I am for sure recommending everyone about this place! read more
We keep running into places with great coffee roasted by Katz Coffee. From High Country Market in Round Rock to MOD Coffee House in Galveston. We decided today would be a good day to visit their mothership in Houston on Karbach St. Sure glad we did. We ended up buying 3 pounds of whole beans, Texas Chocolate Mudslide, Austin Bat City Blend( we've opened this one and it's very good), Texas Hill Country Pecan, and a bottle of vanilla bean cold brew coffee. They make a variety of lattes, hot or cold, and iced coffees, some wit' nitro n some without.....for free. Everybody loved their drinks, my wife had the crusty pelican,nitro,coconut,vanilla, and half n half, I had a hot bananas foster latte....good stuff, our coffee/book buddy got a cold nitro coffee brew. The young man that waited on us was very friendly knows his beans. We left with a couple empty coffee bags, those are also free for the asking. You need to check this place out, you'll thank me later. read more
If you never read a review please read this one! First off AMAZING!! Is what comes to mind. So I found this place on the lovely Yelp. I arrive and think dang it's a roasting place not coffee, but praise God that I didn't leave I see the entrance and walk in. "Mind you, I NEED coffee. It's one of the days." So in line I get and I hear the barista says something and think no way I heard him say that. Wait for it. I approach the counter and I'm told the coffee is free. Yes FREE you aren't reading this incorrectly I said it and so did they. Not only did he say this he then says tell all your friends. I said I'm dreaming. Nope not a dream, reality. They are a roasting company and this is the headquarters and so they have a small retail shop and they offer free coffee to guests and they encourage you to stop by. I forcefully had to leave a tip because they didn't want it. Jokes I said I'm not taking it back it's staying on the counter. So yes go get a free cup or 2 or 20 they don't care and try out the many concoctions they come up with. read more
