The strawberry and carrot cake looked exceptionally dry, so I went for the Aunt Etta (usually my favorite). It also looked a little dry but chocolate can be deceiving. Wish I would have gone with my gut and gotten the cheesecake instead. Grabbed the confetti cake slice as a gift for someone, they said it was dense but pretty good! Service was poor mainly because there was just 1 lady working for the 7 people in line. It took about 30 minutes to be spoken to, then was able to place our order and get the slices about 15 mins later. Overall, probably just a bad day for the bakers and workers but would recommend driving the extra 3 miles and going to a different Winfield's. Usually superb service and flavor/taste of cakes.

But the cake... The cakes were a little bit, pricey, and they sure looked good, but I expected to be happy with the quality of the cake at the very best. Turns out I was amazed! I got a very large slice, as are all of the slices... of the wedding cake! Wow! My wife and I will be celebrating 30 years of marriage next year and I think this is where we are going to get our celebration cake! Expensive but worth every penny. Really good coffee as well. If you are in Houston and near this restaurant, I highly recommend that you give it a try.

What's nudged this place up to 5 stars for me is they have really improved their coffee game, specifically their quality of cappuccino's. Previously it seemed more of latte, but now to me its a legit Capp. Their choice of pastries hasn't changed, which gives you a good assortment of choices and they have added an additional barista or server which also is a nice touch for service. The only niggling items, parking can be tough, so you'll have to either walk a block or be quick to find a place close by. Regardless, definitely give this place a go to come for a pastry and coffee.

Many of the desserts are beautifully presented and almost too pretty to eat. I especially enjoyed the tiramisu and the apricot mousse dessert, while the drinks were decent overall. It was a pleasant experience, especially since we were able to use our hotel credit. That said, the prices are on the higher side, so I'm not sure I would make a special trip just for it. Still, it's a lovely stop if you're already staying at or visiting the hotel.

Since Van Leeuwen is in Rice Village, parking can be a little tough, but I managed to snag a spot on the street, which is free for about 2 hours! Seating is also limited, so this is more of a to-go establishment. While there is outdoor seating nearby, in this Houston seat, I wouldn't even think twice about doing that. I believe buying the pints is cheaper, but $7-$8 for a singular scoop was criminal... You can definitely get more value for your money with 2-3 scoops, but I wasn't feeling too glutinous the day I visited.

This ice cream shop is located in Rice Village on Amherst where there's a row of metered parking…read moreright in front of the shop, but also complimentary 2-hour rooftop garage parking just above. The shop has a simple layout with only three small tables and a restroom down the left hallway. On a weekday afternoon, there weren't a lot of customers and only a few individuals came and went as we were enjoying our ice cream inside. The staff were enthusiastic and greeted us upon entrance and offered samples on any of their ice creams. They have many classic flavors as well as unique ones, which were tempting to get. There were a few flavors that sounded really good, but were too light on the bold flavor the ice cream was trying to show (for example, the big face coffee affogato and the mango sticky rice). Since Van Leeuwen Ice Cream stemmed from NYC and is known for its rich, velvety texture and double-egg based dairy ice cream, I expected more. However, the praline butter cake and earl grey tea flavors were tasty and enticing, though I settled for their strawberry matcha. That strawberry flavor was natural tasting and slightly tart yet sweet, while the matcha was creamy yet a bit earthy... a well balanced scoop! The sugar cone was nice and crispy and not overwhelmingly sweet. We dressed the praline butter cake scoop in a cup with a salted caramel drizzle, which was indulgent. The salted caramel drizzle was a bit overpowering the ice cream, but still a good combination. The menu is structured to serve ice cream by the single scoop ($6.95), double scoop ($8.25), or triple scoop ($9.25), so the more you get the better bang for your buck. It seems like a fancier ice cream experience overall as the prices are more than the typical shop around. Additionally, the ice cream can be served in a cup or a cone if you prefer, with sugar cones complimentary, but waffle cones come with a charge. There are 10+ vegan ice creams in store for those who would like dairy-free alternatives and a plethora of toppings like sauces, crumbles, and drizzles. There are also sundaes on their menu which are perfect for sharing or fine for oneself (if you please). I would say Van Leeuwen has some attractive flavors and good quality ice creams I'd love to come back for sometime. Note: If you're a health care worker and show the staff your badge upon checkout, there's a discount. Plus, on Tuesdays, the first topping is free.

I recently moved to Houston so saw this and thought to check them out. By not asking if ive been here before they messed up. 1st, no one told me the food comes with a complimentary banana. Not on the menu. No signs. Nothing. I'm allergic. They had to remake my food which is a waste for them too and embarrassing for me. 2. Comes with toast. Great. Amazing. Thanks. Again. Not asked what bread I wanted, did I want jam and butter. 3. No water given. No water stations. No jugs. Nothing. 4. Dirty tables not cleaned quickly. If they did the simple things right id give them 5 out of 5. The food is excellent. Ill be back and next time ill specifically say please no banana and please sourdough toast.

Glass Mountain Magazine held an open-mic event here as a part of their annual Boldface conference,…read morewhich is what brought me here. I'll admit that I was somewhat disappointed when I walked in that it didn't seem authentic like I thought it would be. I expected a real French atmosphere and staff, but obviously that's not fair to the place. That's not a critique, but the expectation did influence my experience. The second thing I notice was about the "house-made flavors" for the coffee. I saw the adjective of "house-made" in the Yelp menu pictures which is what got me excited. In-house syrups is the factor that brings me to a coffeeshop. That's what tells me this is the real deal, that this place is putting in real effort to craft a balance drink. Melange realizes this as well. They knew that would draw people, but let me tell you, these flavors are not "house-made." I literally saw a bottle of Monin syrup on the counter. How that is made in house I can't comprehend. Look, I saw the jars of nutella on the counter behind the glass wall, which may make my question sound stupid, but I dumbly thought those were just for the crepes. So when I walked up to the register, I asked the guy "How do you make the nutella flavor for the coffee?" I wanted to know because I myself have tried mixing nutella into my drip coffee at home and it never dissolves. In response, he stared at me in confusion. I rephrased: "Like how do you put the nutella in the latte?" He simply said, "Thin nutella." I did not confront him about the "house-made" adjective on the chalkboard. I did not have it in me. But I thought maybe this could still be good. I was handed a paper cup, which also disappointed me, for I expected a mug, but I can only hold that against myself. The real cardinal sin of coffeeshops that was committed here was that I could not taste the coffee. I am not kidding when I say it tasted like hot nutella milk and that was it. Obviously it tasted good-I like the taste of nutella. But that's not what I ordered. Now again I'm non-confrontational and there were only two employees who were working on a bunch of other orders so I didn't bother complaining. But the lack of coffee in my latte is the bulk of my frustration with Melange Creperie. I also should mention that my latte was decaf, which could have contributed to the distinct lack of coffee taste, I'm not sure, but that seems like an important detail. Now I did enjoy my sausage crepe. The white cheddar and egg were smooth and velvety and the mustard added a nice acidity to contrast with the andouille sausage. But it does feel overpriced at $16 and I wish there was a bit more sausage. If I lived in Houston, I would probably return to try more crepes, but I would never order coffee from here again.
