    Kailua Latte with oat milk at 50% sweetness
    Anne Q.

    This coffee shop is a true gem, serving as the ultimate study and work haven. You can expect a positive experience thanks to the friendly and accommodating staff. They've got an a great coffee menu with refreshing smoothie options too. But some of their Signature drinks are a bit too sweet for my taste, so I always ask for less sweetness. My favorite is the Kailula Latte with oat milk and 50% sweetness. The place is perfect for working, with its bright and airy space and lots of seating. It's my go-to spot for a great cup of coffee and a productive work session. So glad you exist Kona Roastery!

    Discovered a new remote work gem I stumbled upon this place while looking for new spots to work remotely and I'm so glad I did. There's plenty of seating, much more than most coffee spots I usually visit. The greenery and ambiance create such a calm, inviting vibe. The staff were super friendly and welcoming. I do wish there were more food options but overall it's a great place to get things done. I had a vanilla latte and absolutely loved it.

    My matcha latte and croissant sandwich were excellent. I fell in love with the interior and the ambiance was so soothing. I'm truly a sucker for a beautiful space while enjoying delicious food and drinks. The matcha latte was creamy, not too sweet and perfectly earthly. I inhaled my croissant as it was delicious. I couldn't have chosen a better place to get some work done.

    Very confused on why this has a five star rating nearly. Ordered a flat white to go and it took about 20 minutes at 10 AM on a Saturday morning. The flat white had such a subtle flavor. You can't even taste the coffee and they used way too much oat milk. Their proportions are incorrect for what a flat white should be. There was absolutely no care put into the coffee itself. My husband ordered a latte and there was no care into the latte art or the way that the milk was steamed. There are much better coffee shop options in the area.

    Cute coffee shop. Has a Hawaiian theme. They sell baked goods, coffee, and some savory food. It was our first time here. They had some lattes that we had to ask about because we weren't sure what was in them. My husband tried the Shakelatto with cream. He said it was a very strong coffee flavor. I tried it and it was too strong for me. I tried the Kalie latte. It sounded good - cinnamon bun, brown sugar and vanilla. It was too sweet for me. Maybe half the pumps of syrup needed. The staff was friendly. I wish they had the descriptions of each latte easily shown. I'd go back to try something else. And I wouldn't mind trying their food.

    Kailua Latte

    First impression walking in, I thought the place was really cute! I really liked the plants that they had! It was pretty quiet, lots of other customers doing work or chatting amongst themselves. The barista recommended we try the Kailua and Aloha Lattes off the specialty menu that's what we got. Both of the lattes were pretty good! The Kailua was like a sweet oat milk cinnamon latte and the Aloha one was pretty close to a white mocha. This coffee shop was pretty quiet and chill so I'd really recommend if you want a nice place to go and do work or study! We didn't get a chance to try any of the other things they offered but we definitely wanna come back and try some of the musubi and the smoothies!

    Lavender matcha oatmilk latte - 10/10 - $8 - Absolutely loved both the matcha and lavender flavors in this. I got it with half lavender and it was a perfect amount. The oatmilk made the drink creamier. This spot has lots of seating, great for doing work or studying! The prices for the cup sizes are a bit high (which is normal these days) but besides that I loved this spot!

    Hawaii cafe in Katy? Yes please! I love how airy the vibe is with their high ceilings. Great place to relax, hang out with family/friends, study, coffee/tea date, etc. is it quiet? No. Moderate voice volume where you can still focus. I specifically enjoyed their Kona Club sandwich. Aloha latte was good but I wish they would indicate what coffee/expresso has tree-nuts for those with tree-nut allergies to stay away from on the main menu on the wall or at least on their website. Vietnamese iced coffee was meh. I can taste it but it wasn't done correctly. They honestly need to perfect it or just take it off the menu. Service is always friendly. I saw an older lady giving one of the girls a hard time about a ceramic mug cup vs to-go cups but they handle the situation in a friendly matter. Good amount of parking spaces, shared with Shell gas station on a corner.

    Unique experience embodying the best of coffee, you can get a delectable, complex, fruity bean (volcanic soil, Kona Hawaii duh) that's been FRESHLY roasted before your very eyes WHILE you drink it, so pretty much the highest quality you can get anywhere and it's done proper with a taster making batches to each level (light medium dark) on the spot, so they have the local accuracy in small quantities to actively derive the maximum potential from each bean live, and it shows if u just try a cup, there's a beyond subtle difference even over other specialty local coffee shops because of this painstaking effort. Yes it's 'expensive' but only slightly more than a crap cup you'd get anywhere else and it's way more than worth it. This side of town I know where I'm going for good coffee. Yes they have nitro and yes it's amazing here, I'm sorry I like my cold brew, as shallow as that makes me about coffee, I just love the smoothness & low acidity which to me brings out a diff flavor profile unmatched by hot, and more caffeinated thank u. For many years now I've made this a regular stop, do try!

    Kona pour over is all you need to know! Makes me miss Hawaii . Lots of parking, lots of room to lay about and WiFi. No loud music

    What happened? Tasted like a "Rookie" latte. Breve and white mocha latte lacking the usual flavor & aromatics.
    Arienne H.

    Nice ambiance. Our go to place to grab a cup of coffee with friendly staff. But what happened? Breve and white mocha lattes are usually beautifully presented and flavorful. Recommended this place for friends and family to try yesterday and they said both were lacking flavor & aromatics. "Tasted like a Rookie latte." Maybe new staff in training? We've always enjoyed Kona Roastery so I hope they could maintain their quality.

    I can't believe I waited so long to try this coffee shop. I like that it's an authentically Hawaiian vibe and actually had some sandwiches with spam. But the real surprise was how good the coffee tasted. We stopped in for a quick bite so I tried the egg /cheese with avocado breakfast sandwich, which was tasty. The real star was the honey lavender cappuccino. This is so delicious and it has a thin dusting of raw sugar and cinnamon. I can't get the flavors out of my head. It's so good! Interesting one of our friends that was with us is from Hawaii so she was so taken aback over the authentic Kona coffee flavor. This is a must try if you're in the area. The atmosphere has a nice quaint vibe and good for a quick date with friends or parents meet up for coffee to take a break from the kiddos, although I'm sure they're welcome. I just didn't see any that day.

    Vanilla Latte

    Kona is always reliable for a great coffee. It is usually pretty busy so might be hard to find a table. If you go here to study try to get a table near a wall so that you have access to outlets, the tables in the middle do not have outlets. Also a great place to catch up with friends. They have a good selection of food which is served until 2pm while pastries are available during all hours. Definitely a Katy staple coffee shop in my opinion with latte art that never disappoints, would definitely recommend!

    So I just bought a blueberry lemon muffin from Kona haven and I'm on a dairy free diet...I've looked at the website and I can't find if these muffins contain dairy...do they?

    I believe it does contain dairy. But you might want to double check with them by calling. Hope this helps

It's incredible when you think how these beans are roasted and then shipped halfway across the world in order to make it to your cup. We contacted Alex to set up a time to sample some pourovers. It was great to hear his heart and how he came to be at District. We were grateful for the stories of him partnering to empower roasters from Costa Rica, Salvador, and other places. Every type of roast has a story behind it. Not to mention that he is able to supply us ground beans at a good price. Also impressed with his service and care for us as customers. Please support our local District Roasters! They are amazing.

Given that weve had to give up so much in the coffee drinking experience we try and get what we do consume to taste as fresh as possible so weve turned to getting our decaf beans roasted locally. Weve tried a couple of places in Houston and just recently came across District Coffee. Once we checked their website and made sure it was swiss water processed and not bathed in paint stripper chemicals we decided to give them a try... the head roaster Alex is a humble guy who has a family operated business near the 249/Cypress area. I drove out to the District headquarters to pick up a pound of decaf and Alex gave me a tour around the facility which was modest, but professional. Before i left, Alex asked about the reason for decaf and i explained that we mix it with regular to create a half caff blend and with that he walked over to a bin in the shop and pulled out an additional bag of whole bean half caff blend of their signature roast and said it was "on the house" since i had come all the way out from the Sugar Land area. Wow. Now that was unexpected and also very nice considering gas costs near four bucks these days. We just had a pour over cup of that this morning and it was very, very smooth. If the regular whole bean decaf is anywhere close to the smoothness of this signature half caff roast we will most likely add District coffee to our regular rotation of coffees for our morning routine. Thanks Alex. Good luck to you and your family and we'll spread the word about your brand. Take care.

Traffic wasn't too bad along Mason and the location was easy to find using GPS. The coffee shop is part of a shopping strip that includes other popular businesses like Aji Ramen and Hoodadak.

We just stopped by for a few minutes and were recommended the honey nut latte as one of their more popular drinks. We got it hot. It was perfect! Not too hot, definitely not cold, great flavor, strong coffee flavor, and not too sweet. There's also a wall of fancy teas that's definitely worth checking out. (See my photo.) Service was also good!
