    Dirty chai latte.

    Cute, nice little place to come to with friends. Coffee is amazing! Will definitely come again.

    Wow! I planned to go to a different coffee spot but I got annoyed with traffic so I landed here. Im glad I did, for several reasons. They were having a special event today and tomorrow AND I ran into some 3rd cousins I hadnt seen in a while. Not to mention, the coffee menu is amazinngggg. My daughter got the honey lavender and I got the most popular drink on the menu, Toffee Moon. Toffee Moon has sea-salt toffee, buttermoon and bourbon maple syrup. Lots of cute decor including the decorative cups.

    Very fast service, unique latte flavors. They have a bomb mocha- yum! And I got a 1/2 sweet(sugar free) vanilla latte with cinnamon. So good. Cute little place by across the street from Hmart

    Nice decor and ambiance of this coffee place. Free WiFi and lot of space if you like to socialize with friends. Quick service.

    Honey Lavender Specialty Latte
    Thea W.

    I recently found out I'm lactose and it's turned my world upside down. I was SO happy they had an almond milk option!!! The honey lavender latte is soo delicious I'd love to try it cold too! The girlies helped with recommendations and it came out so quickly. You can definitely hangout here, study or play games. Definitely recommend!

    I would definitely recommend this place for the ambience, appropriate mood music and good taste with intentional interior. If you are lucky there are at least two chairs with the soft tushy cushions but the rest are the hard wooden hemorrhoid haters but at least it's someplace to sit. The personnel were nice people and would take and make your order promptly and without a frown. My cappuccino was good as well as my son's green mocha Hulk monster or whatever he had but the takeaway here for me is they need to take that cheese and tomato soup off the menu! Horrendous as you can see in a picture, it does not do the picture justice. It's just toasted bread with cheese slapped in the middle of it and some semi water down Tomatoes Campbell Soup. It's okay who goes to a coffee shop just to order comfort food like that? Well I mistakenly thought maybe somebody in the family had a secret recipe that they could surprise and unsuspecting customer but not this one my friend not this one. Parking lot is ample and it sits in the strip center of the Asian Town off of 99 and I-10.

    Go to coffee spot in Katy Asia Town. Only wish is they would open earlier during the day so I would be able to grab the drinks on the way to my morning commute. All coffees are extremely flavorful on their lattes. Their snacks have always been tasty as well. In terms of fresh brands for espresso machines, the beans are a bit bitter to my liking and I would prefer notes with nuts and chocolate opposed to acidic flavors.

    Sparkling Blueberry Lavender Lemonade for pop up event
    Mimi T.

    My best friend and I came to visit for the first time with our kids for a blind box pop up event. I enjoy events like these when they are hosted at coffee shops. They are located in a complex in Katy Asia Town area which has plenty of parking. There was a variety of sitting areas for small or big groups. The staff was friendly & didn't rush us when I had to take time to look at the menu and pastry display. We both got themed drinks, sparkling blueberry lavender lemonade & coconut cold brew with coco cold foam with variety of macarons. Both drinks were really good and the macarons were slightly hard since we rushed to eat them without thawing but they were very tasty! The decor was fun to look through especially the coffee cups on the display! The pop up event was very cute and we stayed for about an hour. Hope to check this cafe out again!

    The only coffee place that piqued my interest in the Katy area when I was doing my research. Cute & cozy but a bit loud; not the best place if you want to take an online meeting. They do have plenty of outlets if you plan on staying a while. Their 12 SPECIALTY LATTES with unique names & flavorings all sound amazing. The SEASONAL ones will change out so it gives you an excuse to come back often to see what new ones they have. You can add CBD for an extra $3, alternative milk 0.99, & size upgrade for 0.50 - TOFFEE MOON: sea salt caramel toffee, buttermmon, & bourbon maple make for a creamy robust drink. - VIOLET MOON: one of the seasonal lattes, with lavender, buttermmon, & oat milk. Was a little sweet for my preference but with an extra shot it would be perfect. I'm pretty sure you can also request it a little less sweet. They have a bookcase of MANGA & novels that you can read while dining in. They also have a couple of board games. They do serve food & pastries for you to snack on.

    Iced Chai Latte
    Mary P.

    This is a great coffee shop!! The staff was incredibly friendly!! I got an iced chai latte with oat milk and a butter croissant warmed up. The chai was DELICIOUS!!! I haven't had a chai that good in a while, so whoever made it shout out to you! The butter croissant was also really flaky and had a good butter taste so I really enjoyed it. There were lots of tables for working or meeting with friends. It was kinda chilly so bring a jacket. If I'm ever in Katy, I will 100% stop at this shop :)

    Alex N.

    Great spot and Katie to grab coffee and study. They have a decent amount of seating, friendly service, and great drink drinks.! I would come back.

    I don't know how, but they completely forgot our order. I noticed after we placed our order, everyone who came in after us got their drink already. When I asked the girl she gasped in shock, so they clearly forgot. We waited about 20 min for drinks when it wasn't busy. I got the iced honey lavender latte. It was ok and I wouldn't be back to this coffee shop. There are too many other good boba/coffee shops in the area.

This is a great place to come study or do work on your computer. Some tables have outlets too. The service was good. No complaints. I came here because I heard their matcha is good. Each matcha is $8.5. They claim to use ceremonial grade matcha but under the matcha latte list, there is only one drink labeled CG (ceremonial grade) while others do not. The CG is the basic and they use agave for sweetening. They also don't hand mix per cup. It is pre-batched. I'm not a pre-batch hater although I do prefer each cup to be hand mixed, so I will give it a chance if it tastes good. The CG latte was surprisingly smooth and pretty good! Not bitter at all imo, but it was slightly grainy. They used the perfect amount of agave to balance. It wasn't sweet either. Just perfect balanced flavor for a regular CG matcha latte. The other matcha latte I ordered was the banana. It is SO GOOD! A lot grainier than the CG, though. But I would definitely order that again if I come to Katy. It has a cinnamon flavor in it (probably why it felt grainier than CG) and mixed with the banana flavor was just very yummy. Highly recommend!

I walked out in shock because, what? Out of all the boba spots that I have been to, never has anyone smelled my drink. In fact, I used to work at a boba shop and never has it occurred to me to smell a drink and not remake it for a customer. Like, I don't know what methods you use to confirm ingredients but you couldn't even take the drink to the back to smell it? You did it in front of my face? I don't ever ask for drinks to be remade unless it tastes nothing like I ordered, I just go about and let it be but this genuinely appalled me. I go to Wanpo and I enjoy their Mango Sago drink but this experience has led me to never come back because... are you serious?

Overall, a comfortable and welcoming place with a great setup for both relaxing and being productive.

I'm not even a huge coffee drinker so I'm not someone that's picky and particular with how their coffee is done. So for someone that doesn't care too much about coffee, dang it was a letdown.

There was a bunch of staff in the back and restocking all the breads around the store but only one person ringing up at the register. And I'm going to assume that one person was calling for technical support or something because he was on the phone while pressing buttons on the tablet. Or he could he be taking a phone order, who knows. The point is the other workers should have seen that he isn't ringing up anyone and the line is continously growing longer and longer.
