Love Third Gen Co.'s seasonal flavors. This careot cake latte and almond Danish were amazing! Friendly faces and customer service in a chill setting, what more could you need. Great place to do some work or study read more

My go-to coffee shop whenever I'm in the area. Recently, I tried their Cane Break Latte, and it was delicious. Friends like to say that I like milk and sugar with a dash of coffee. They're not wrong, and Third Gen knows how to make my lattes the way I like it! Interior is cozy, and staff is friendly! read more

Super good and quick service! They have great WiFi and an amazing playlist. Very delicious coffee with lots of dairy free options. The banana bread was also very delicious they have the option to serve it warmed too and I lofted for that which made it taste so fresh and perfect for a brunch snack! read more

I've had both coffee and smoothies here! This a great place to stop in and grab a drink, then head to the bookstore next door. The staff is friendly and the store is sunny and welcoming. read more

my husband and I stopped here on our way out of Houston for some caffeine for our drive home and it was a great decision! We both got iced vanilla lattes and the espresso was super smooth! The drink wasn't overly sweet and really enjoyable! The service was super nice and the area was really cool! Since we were on the go, we didn't have too much time to explore, but it looks like a lot of people were hanging out at the café and outside! I would come back here in the area just for the coffee!! read more

I went on a Sunday and it was busy but the service was very fast and attentive. I didn't see or try any of their food just their coffee and it was delicious! There were people on coffee dates, or doing homework. There is also a sitting area outside! Can't wait to go back! read more

There's ample room to study and to chill, they have a downstairs area and also an upstairs. I got an iced matcha with brown sugar cold foam! The matcha is unsweetened, I wish I would've gotten vanilla syrup so it could have enhanced the matcha. The blueberry muffin was gigantic and sweet! I would totally come here again :) read more

Just what I was looking for. Hubby and I stopped for a coffee on the way home. I like things on the sweeter side and am always not sure what to ask for, the Canebreak Latte was perfection. Hubby's cappuccino was very nice as well. The staff was more than accommodating and very kind without being fake. Looking forward to returning soon. read more

First off the iced Cinnamon Roll Latte is delicious. If you're worried about the cinnamon being too overwhelming, don't. It balances out nicely with the other ingredients. The Loft area is spacious and has a nice variety of seating options, chairs, tables and couches, oh my. Would definitely recommend giving this place a shot if you need to get out of the house for a day. read more

Third Gen Coffee - Cinnamon Roll Latte...halfway done and remembered I needed to take a picture. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - The Woodlands, Texas

I finally made it to this coffee shop which may be the only 2 story coffee shop in houston...well. 1.5 stories you could say. They have plenty of parking and 5 signature lattes on their menu, which is what I came here for. I tried the English sausage roll and their iced cinnamon roll latte. The pastry was ok, I wasn't blown away as I've had this at other coffee shops and restaurants. The latte was also just ok for me, not very sweet at all and I didn't feel like it tasted anything like a cinnamon roll. The best part is really just the atmosphere here. Service is fast and friendly, even when there is a line. read more

It's a hoping spot on a cold and drizzly Sunday late morning. Ordered the usual (decaf flat white, heavy cream) and THIS is a cup of coffee. Strong flavor standing up to the cream. The ratios are right. It's hot, but not scalding. Hubs is thinking he'll grab another one for the road. (Now THAT's saying something!) Comfy seats here under the crazy black and white wall, and a steady stream of patrons. We'll check out upstairs before we leave but if it's anything like what's going on down here? This place is the bomb. Worth the drive up and off our normal beaten path. Next time we'll bring a book to sit and read (or maybe grab one from the bookstore next door!) read more

The service at this coffee shop is good, I love a good chai so that's what I ordered here and I was a bit disappointed as it was mostly milk and lacked that particular flavor chai has. It is a two story coffee shop with very nice decor and a chill vibe where you can just sit and enjoy your coffee. I also tried an espresso, which was decent. Not good not bad just a regular espresso. I overall recommend this place and will visit them again with the hopes of finding a drink that I really enjoy. read more

The coffee selection was out of this world! Thoroughly impressed with the service and knowledge of the barista !

Rarely you'll find me in the Woodlands area since it's so far from my domicile. But I found myself here in the morning during a Sunday in late June where I needed to post up for some coffee and me time. As always, YELP brought me here so I had to stop in and hang for a bit. First, the space; a two floor establishment with table seating (downstairs) or lounge seating (upstairs). I went with the lounge seating where there's a side table for plugging in your electronics that you can work from. Very convenient! Second, the employees are kind and excited if it's your first time here which mine was. They recommended the either the cinnamon roll latte or baklava latte, I decided on the latter. Which leads me to the third, the latte was straight up BOMB. Like having that delicious mediterranean dessert in latte format with the cinnamon rim, I was very impressed with the taste. I also got a breakfast sandwich on an everything bagel which complimented the latte well. Quite a breakfast. There's other signature lattes here and frappuccinos, someone mentioned there was a cookes & cream frap. I'll have to try that sometime. They use cold brew as the base for a frap which keeps it frosted; a nice touch. Look forward to being back here when I'm in the Woodlands! Recommend others check this place out too cause they deserve to stick around given their service, ambiance, and coffee. read more

Third Gen is one of my favorite local coffee shops. My coffee or matcha has been perfect every time, there's virtually no wait everytime I've gone, and the service is fantastic. I've usually take my order to go, so I've never sat and spent time in there but it seems like a calm environment. Keep it up Third Gen! You're the best. read more

Third Gen is so far from where I live, but I always make an effort to stop by if I'm in the Woodlands area or otw to Dallas! This coffee shop is super cute; plenty of tables to hangout or study. There's an area upstairs as well. Staff is very friendly & service is excellent. The first drink I ever ordered was a cinnamon roll latte; it's good and tastes exactly like how the name sounds haha. My go-to drink is the cookies & cream frap. The mistake I made the first time I ordered this was only getting a 16oz instead of 20oz!! One of the few coffee shops that uses cold brew as the base for a frappuccino. I hope this coffee shop stays open for a long time! read more

5 stars is not enough for this cozy, friendly shop! I frequent this place about once a week and love it. There's tons of seating inside, fun merch/dog treats, and AMAZING coffee! I have come with several people and all of them have loved their drinks. The parking lot is huge and I never have trouble finding a spot. It is also in a cute shopping center next to a yoga studio and bookstore, so it's super easy to make visiting this place a day trip. My only (small) gripe is that vegan food options are very limited- I would love to see some options for pastries or snacks! read more

Cute and trendy coffee shop in The Woodlands! 100% recommend a stop at Third Gen! I was driving from Houston to Dallas and was in desperate need of coffee and food. I'm so happy I decided to try Third Gen to fill that void! The interior is modern with ample room to sit down. The barista's were very friendly and the service was relatively quick! I ordered the seasonal Pistachio Latte and an Egg and Cheese Croissant. The latte was incredible! Not overly sweet and had the perfect hint of pistachio flavor at the end of every sip. The croissant was very fresh and filling. I will definitely be back next time I'm in the neighborhood! read more

Came in 30 minutes before closing. The workers were checked out which I get. Service was eh. No greeting, no effort, just vibes. I got the cinnamon roll coffee. Could barely taste any cinnamon or flavor at all. Only reason it's getting a star is because it was strong. Wasn't impressed. Probably won't come back. read more

The service, ambiance, and coffee was amazing! Amen The coffee was actually really strong, tasteful, and delicious! It definitely better than just Starbucks all the time. Highly recommended by impeccable Rideshare limousine and Partybus my company! read more

Ambiance: Aesthetically pleasing coffee shop with upstairs & downstairs seating tucked away in a small boutique shopping area off Sawdust. Open & airy - lots of industrial pieces combined with plants & art. There is also patio seating outside that is kid/dog friendly. Great spot for studying, working on your laptop, or meeting a friend for a morning coffee. I love their frozen cold brew and my friend highly recommends the London Fog tea! Assortment of croissants and small bites available to purchase. Decent pricing for cafes in the area. Parking onsite & quick service. Highly recommend this quaint shop! read more

I am a fan of this coffee spot. Ambiance is really cozy with an upstairs and downstairs seating. Not the biggest space but comfortable. I got the cinnamon roll latte and I really enjoyed it except it wasn't as hot as I like it. I like my coffee really hot and it wasn't really there for me. Service was really good. My wife got a smoothie and it wasn't very good personally but more than likely you're not there for a smoothie. Biggest complaint is they close so early! I'll help make the coffee if you guys can stay open later lol! read more

A Must-Visit for Coffee Lovers! Come here for delicious coffee. Cinnamon honey oat milk lattes are a weakness of mine, and this one is among the best I've found--perfectly balanced, delicious, and expertly crafted. The service was quick and efficient, making it a great stop for a quality coffee on the go. I'll definitely be back when I have more time to sit and enjoy the laid-back atmosphere. Such a great spot! read more

So firstly the coffee spot offers a nice ambiance and the fresh smell of coffee and food. That's the only thing about this place we liked. They had run out of croissants which was ummm ok...... secondly we waited over 15 minutes for 2 coffees and 2 ham and cheese bagels as well as the English breakfast sausage, way to many herbs on that btw. That wasn't the worst part the worst part was that the service was below standard of even a coffee shop they definitely should have given us a bag but I had to go up and ask for one you would think since we ordered 5 items to go mind you, that a bag would have been customary to offer not here. Then some college kid in the parking lot bent back my folding mirrors and just rolled her eyes when I said something about it and proceeded to run in the coffee shop. Won't be back spend your money elsewhere. read more

Very cool place. Great atmosphere. Outdoor seating is cool. There is small tables for kids. Coffee was good, service was great. Mocha was good and execution was excellent. Best coffee shop I've found in the Spring area Definitely recommend read more

This is one of the most enjoyable cappuccinos I've ever had. The expresso had an aggressive dark roasted coffee flavor softened by the creamy milk foam poured in a tulip pattern on top (sorry I didn't take a picture). I appreciate the option of drinking from a real coffee cup when "dining in". The seating area had various nooks to hang out in for work, study, or socializing with friends. Thanks for making me look smart to the friend that I asked to meet me there! read more

Idk it's so hard to give a good review for this place. I actually really enjoyed my drink! It had a perfect balance of gingerbread and chai mix that didn't feel like either one was overpowering the other. My only gripe was the color of the coffee. When I first got it, the coffee was way too light. It looked more like milk than actual coffee. If you're a sweet coffee kind of person, then it's worth trying. Also, the seating is really nice vibes! read more

So, I was not expecting it to be as busy as it was. The customers did not stop flowing (always a good sign). This was my second visit and I really enjoyed my food and beverage. The gentleman behind the counter understood my food allergy and went the extra step to check the products before I put my order in. If you're looking for a place to hangout, they have seating on their second level as well..lots of folks working remotely. I will say, if you want something more quiet, this would not be the place as it is busy and noisier for people who would like a super quiet place to work. Would like to bring my dad as he would be thrilled about the Honduran coffee choices. read more

AN ENCHANTED COZY COFFEE SHOP Located in the midst of the hustle and bustle of the Woodlands area, there's a cute, picturesque, warm, and cozy little coffee shop. Third Gen is not your average popular Star Bucks. Instead, this establishment was built on the backs of a family's hard work, blood, sweat, tears, and love. It has an aura of serenity in the atmosphere and a sense of family values imbedded into the history. After a long and stressful day at work, it felt great to be able to unwind at such a prestigious establishment with delicious Hot Honduras coffee, and great company. Our community manager, Ms. Brittany along with Third Gen owner Rachel, hosted an amazing and fun after hours Holiday Coffee Event. A family history of how this establishment began, was provided in precise details by Rachel. It began many years ago by Rachel's husband's great grandfather who was a coffee farmer in Honduras. Somewhere along the way, it was all taken away from him after he had created a successful coffee farming business, but the universe saw fit to bring it back together and their legacy continues to live on with the Third Generation who are keeping that spirit alive! This event was a small gathering of Elites who came together united in perfect harmony to enjoy an evening of Yelp Bingo games accompanied by prizes, delicious Honduras coffee, great conversation, laughter, and fellowship! There was a fruit tray provided with a variety of dry fruits and nuts which was plentiful and also miniature chocolate Santa candy bars. You could literally feel the Holiday Spirit in the air, especially with the beautiful Christmas decor by Brittany and her mom. Moreover, the owner provided us with a small history lesson in coffee, and I learned some things about coffee beans that I was totally unaware of. The lovely and talented Barista Sabrina, created some beautiful Latte artwork and offered us each an opportunity to try our hand at Latte art. However, I opted out because I'm a chicken, too afraid to fail in front of everyone, lol. Thankfully, we did have some brave daredevils who didn't mind taking the front line and allowing the great artist in them to shine! In addition to all the fun and excitement, Third Gen gave us an opportunity to sample some of their delicious and innovative holiday coffee creations, the Eggnog Latte and the Grinch Matcha Latte. Both creations were equally delicious, warm, and soothing as I gulped them down. I also tried their delicious Honduras Drip coffee without cream or sweeteners and let me tell you, it HITS PERFECTLY! I can see myself becoming addicted to it. The owner explained to us that the Honduras coffee goes through the process of being washed due to eliminating mucilage and keeping the coffee beans from fermenting. I was so wired up from drinking so much coffee; I had the hardest time falling asleep after I made it home. Although my husband warned me not to go in on the coffee, I just couldn't control myself. I'm extremely hard-headed. SMH... Overall, this Elite Event experience was an epic one! I had a fabulous time mingling with other Elites and having the opportunity to meet the parents of our community manger. I thought they were adorable and to witness the support and love that they bestow upon their daughter was truly uplifting and heartwarming. I must say, the vibes in the atmosphere were full of love and Holiday cheer. The only down-side to getting the opportunity to grace this establishment and finding that I love it, is that it's located 35 miles away from where I live. Bummer! I will have to devise a plan for visiting them periodically in the future. Thanks Brittany and the Yelp team for all that you do in planning every amazing Elite Event! You all are above and beyond fantastic! Delicious Coffee+Great Company=Happy People read more

I would recommend this coffee shop only for their pastries. The service was good. They are very friendly and helpful. I originally went for their viral chocolate muffin which has been compared to the chocolate muffins at the Paris 2024 Olympics. I wasn't surprised that they had sold completely out by the time I arrived. So if you wanna try their chocolate muffin, you have to get them right when they open. I order a lavender latte with coconut milk. It was very very bitter. So bitter that you couldn't taste the lavender. I'm not sure what type of beans they use for their coffee, but I could tell that they were not single origin beans and possibly a mix of some kind. They were roasted for a long time, so possibly dark roast. To me, dark roast doesn't suite my taste when used in mixed cafe drinks such as flavored lattes. It's great for espressos but not so much for anything else really. So if they use those beans for all their drinks, then I would recommend a hard pass if you're craving a smoother latte or signature coffee. The venue is quite spacious and had an upstairs portion as well with extended seating in the event that the downstairs is full. The coffee shop is situated next to a yoga studio and other neat places so it's easy to walk to if you're already in the area for some other service. As for their pastries, I order their chocolate croissant and chocolate chip cookie! Both were incredible. The croissant was hot and butter with milk chocolate that melts when you break it apart to eat it. It can get a little messy so be careful. The cookie was golden brown and crunchy on the outside and gewy chocolate chips on the inside! Perfect ratio of sugars to flour with an abundance or chocolate chips. The crunch to get into the soft interior was the icing on the cake for me. This is why I would only come back for their pastries. read more
