So after my meeting I asked if they worked they're which they responded yes and let them know that it was inappropriate how loud and close they were when I was there first and they could've atleast beeen courteous enough to say hey we're about to do a photo shoot and could get noisy etc Only 1 of the 3 apologized and the other 2 literally looked as if I were the issue so with that being said I'll never be back but they promote themselves as a workspace .. so try to considerate of your patrons that are working One lady offered a gift card but that a service industry cop out especially when the response is "I'm sorry you felt that way" lol it wasn't a feeling it was literally happening in real time .. I didn't feel you were talking through my whole meeting right next to me .. it was happening

I had visited a nearby business and wanted to give this place a go. The parking situation isn't…read moregreat, but there is street parking in the area for those that may not be on foot. Vibe/Decor - 4.5* The storefront is cool, nice entryway and gives a chill vibe. Stepping in it's a bit boutique and free space for studying and chilling, with some music in the background. They have a panty near the door for those in need who want water and snacks, which is a great cause, but sadly I watched it be abused in the short time I was here. The intent is, come in, take what you need, within reason, don't clear it out essentially. Well, I watched a lady load up her bag with snacks and water. It wasn't what I'd subjectively view as "fair." They have some TVs around that at this visit had the World Cup on and there was a nice setup for buying some jerseys if you wanted. Overall, I enjoyed the setup and witnessed plenty of people reading or studying. Food / Drink - 2* They offer some bites and coffee drinks, which is obviously what many are likely visiting for. I ordered an Iced Black Sesame Latte, which also had a black sesame cold foam. The disappointing part, it was nothing to write home about. Maybe I'm a harsh critic here since I make my own Black Sesame simple syrup at home. That said, I did have the person with me try it who has tried my sesame lattes tell me they thought mine were better. I thought, well, maybe I'll get something else if I come back. Service - 2* I can only speak to my personal experience, but when I walked in, multiple people stared at me, as if I was an alien or unwelcome here, it was odd and uncomfortable. I approached the counter to order, asking a couple of questions, which were answered, albeit probably not as anyone would define as "warmly." Now, once ordered, it took longer than one would expect given how few orders were ahead of mine. I was in no rush, but I did witness the gentleman in front of me who was wearing a local business' shirt, seem to pace and anxiously wait. Cost - 1* Anyone who reads my reviews knows I preface this with, always subjective, but it's been awhile since I walked into a place and nearly walked out on pricing alone. That said, I wanted to see if the coffee was worth it at $9+ bucks. Sadly, it is not, particularly when paired with the pace of service. Overall - 2* This is one that I think has a lot of potential, but it just misses on fundamental marks for a coffee shop. At the end of the day, it's a cool vibe and I could see plenty of people wanting to relax here, but in a city, and even area, that has plenty of options, this one is worth skipping. Average coffee, subpar service, and poor pricing. I will not be returning, but hey, I'm only one review and opinion so if you're in the area, maybe your experience will be different.

I came in on the coldest Friday ever. I have tried their matcha before but today I wanted soup and…read morea grilled cheese. They ran out of their delicious tomato soup so I changed my order last minute to the club sandwich. The sandwich comes with fries and Y'ALL, this sandwich is sooo good. It is gourmet and worth the money. And what's up with their ketchup!? It's for sure house made. I need the ketchup in a bottle for my house! So good! They have so many food and dessert options for all day. Come and plug your laptop in and try their food. It's always busy here when I come but people are more than willing to share their tables and chairs.

When we arrived I realized the place is a walk up shop so we roamed around once for parking and realized they actually have a small area to the right of the shop to park- it can be easy to miss. When we walked up, their pastries looked delicious! I ordered their s'mores croffin. For my drink I got the turmeric wellness hot drink- I read a lot of reviews complaining about wait time. We arrived around 10am on a weekday and it was quite empty. There was relatively no wait time for our drinks. My drink was unsweetened so I added packets of sugar into it and the pastry was delightful- crunchy, buttery, sweet, chocolaty on the inside all at the same time. This place has some picnic looking benches outside of it if you are interested in staying there. I highly recommend! I'm ready to go back and try some of their other pastries.

Koffeteria is an absolute hidden gem located in EaDo. I just found out about it from Instagram and…read morewas shocked that I've never heard about it prior, despite it being here for years! Anyway, I finally got a chance to stop by on a Sunday late morning recently. Parking can be difficult, but there are dedicated Koffeteria spots in front of the business as well as surrounding paid curbside parking. I believe Instagram helped many others discover this business recently, as it was pretty packed and there was a line, but this gave us ample opportunity to peruse the menu and pastry display. Ultimately, we opted for the: Cambodian iced coffee (kayfe dahkoh) made with sweetened condensed milk and evaporated milk - tasted very similar but weaker than Vietnamese coffee. As I'm Viet and have never had Cambodian coffee, this was my only frame of reference, and I didn't love it. I'm excited to try more Cambodian coffees to get a better understanding of their unique flavor profile! Black sesame mochi - sweet and perfectly sesame flavored with salted yolk at the bottom, delicious, my partner's favorite pastry Beef pho kolache - the bun was so soft and complemented the soft but flavorful brisket meat. wow. truly a brisket pho in a kolache. We got extremely lucky and got a table almost immediately after ordering, as someone left just in time. The interior is full of vintage furniture, which added so much character. As a vintage lover, I felt so at home! I could see how others might prefer a more neat, chic interior, but to me this was absolutely perfect and added so much warmth, homeliness, and character to the shop. Absolutely love this coffee shop and will 100% be back to try more pastries and coffees. Immediately, this has become a new Houston favorite!

Just an FYI. If you're not going to the convention center and are just looking for an amazing cafe/bakery, Koffeteria is it. I was looking at their large display case for so long that they asked me if I needed help deciding! But that was a great offer because I did need help. I asked for an item that I can eat now, an item that I can snack on later, and a sweet treat. They recommended the guava cheese danish for now, cause it won't travel well. They recommended the Earl Gray Sweet Bun for later. And then they recommended the double chocolate chip cookie. Everything was fantastic. The guava danish was absolutely delightful. The Earl Gray bun was also great when I had it later in the day.

I ordered the Leeland benedict, which was delicious. I liked the salad that came with it, and the bacon was an extra huge plus! My friend ordered the honey chicken biscuit, which he enjoyed (contrary to some of the other reviews that weren't too impressed with it). This isn't maybe the most cutsie/girly brunch spot in my opinion, but the food was good, rather affordable, and the service was quick. In terms of parking, it was unfortunately street parking. I paid for parking (maybe less than $4 for 2 hours), but my friend found free street parking a little farther away. Overall, I left happy and full! I'd definitely come back (as long as I'm not the one driving because I hate street parking haha). I recommend trying this spot out!

On the corner of Scott and Elgin, ThirsTea was literally a cool breeze in the hot sun. Large windows made it bright but the awning kept it from being overbearingly hot as we perused the menu of drink options. They have milk tea, iced tea, chai, smoothies, slushies, rolled ice cream, and snacks. I got an iced pink chai latte made with oatmilk and cajun fries. The chai, pink due to a variation straight from India, was delicious. Smooth, not overly sweet, and refreshing. The fries were well seasoned and hot enough to make me do The Thing. You know the thing (hafhafhaf) you do when the food is too hot to eat immediately but too yummy to wait? Yeah, that thing. The woman who helped us was so sweet and attentive. This was the perfect stop on this hot day. I look forward to trying other things on the menu.
