My new fave Houston coffee shop!…read more The staff are so friendly and the drink options are plentiful- they have so many cool house made syrups. Love the dark room, which is a black sesame syrup. The food is good too- breakfast taco and lunch taco are both big so you only need one and they're nice and cheesy. Beautiful bright space with lots of sunlight, easy parking, and the owners dog is sweet! Great spot to hang out and study.

Came here on a Saturday AM at opening time. Located in Eado…read more The door was technically locked. But the owner let me in and locked it behind me. She said there was some unhoused folks who kept popping in and out of her store, as they are frequent flyers. The shop is uniquely designed. It gives a homey old timey feel, with the arcade game, and chaise lounger. There are tables along the wall to work or chat. No outside seating. Service - was fantastic. I was her only customer. I asked the owner Nina about about the business and she shared with me that it use to be a bar first until she recently made it a coffee shop after God's direction. She does make coffee cocktails for special events. And she has a bottle or two to add to your morning or afternoon coffee if you like. She gave great vibes. Drink- I ordered the matcha. And I was satisfied. A touch sweet for me, but not crazy to where I disliked it. I enjoyed it. There is a vast number of "exotic" flavor of lattes she has as well to check out. Nice to have lots of options. Looking forward to supporting this black owned business.

I stopped by Her Name Was Irene Coffee on a day when Google Maps indicated they were open, and the…read morehours posted on the door also showed they should have been open. Unfortunately, when I arrived, the shop was closed. I was disappointed since I made the trip specifically to try them, but I understand that things happen. For now, I am leaving this as a three-star review based solely on the hours mismatch, not the coffee or service. I am hopeful to return on another day and actually try their offerings, and I would be happy to update this review once I have the chance to do so.

The classic "they're building a coffee shop in the parking lot of the coffee shop." For a specialty coffee enthusiast like me, it does not rate highly. I tried a turbo, their "specialty" and a drip. And disliked both. The turbo tasted like a chocolate milk with lots of ice. The drip was a darker roast to start, resulting in an unpleasant charcoal water flavor profile, needing milk and sugar to balance out the tds. Drunk black, not to my liking.

Cute and rustic. I have been hearing about Agora for a while and I finally landed here! This place…read moreis 2 story's and full of character. There is indoor and outdoor seating. This place was definitely at some point a home. But you know Houston and it's no zoning so a coffee shop. Any rate. They service lots of tasty looking pastries. I resisted because it was late but I will be back to try them. They also sell Agora branded trinkets. I ordered a cappuccino with oat milk. Um it was made to perfection. Now they didn't have any stevia so womp womp but they have regular sugar. I think they offer wifi because there were lots of folks in there with their laptops. There's no dedicated parking but street parking.

The foam is too much and you don't get any coffee until you drink more than half of it. Taste could use some sweetness. Didn't mix well. Relaxing place with a lot of seating feels very college vibe.

I got a honey cinnamon iced latte and it was good! I also got 2 potato egg tacos. They were large and filling. Baristas were friendly and drinks were made efficiently.

They use fresh fruit rather than just syrups so you get a few bits and pieces with every sip. The matcha itself was very subtle which was nice. Perfect go-to if you want an introduction to matcha! 10/10 The blueberry on the other hand was just eh. I felt like this one did need some syrup because it was lacking flavor. It kind of felt like i was just drinking milk with a tini tiny hint of blueberry. 5/10

We enjoyed the lemon ricotta pancakes and the soft chili scramble. Perfect sweet and savory combo. We were not fans of the blueberry matcha. It lacked blueberry flavor and did not taste ceremonial grade to me. I would stick with their coffees instead. Those are strong and smooth. Otherwise , if you're a brekkie-all -day kind of person, would recommend.

I visited on a very rainy day and went to the wrong building at first. I wondered why there was…read morenobody inside. I quickly realized I must be in the wrong spot. To the right side of the small parking lot with 3 spots is the coffee shop through the courtyard. I tried the lizzie tiramisu (hot) and the bear (iced). This is a cool coffee shop next to Simone's with good music and plenty of cozy seating. They not just have 1 couch， but they actually have 2 small couches and 4 settees. Their prices start at $5 for the basic latte, but the signature ones are about 6.50-7.50. I liked both drinks quite a bit, especially the bear which has 2 of my favorite ingredients in it, coconut and banana.

I only drink decaf and of course they have decaf coffee and they made me a tiramisu cold foam with oat milk and placed a biscotti top. This coffee was sweet of course but perfect for a Saturday morning coffee. Did not know this bar was a coffeee bar in the morning. Patio seating outside as well. This is a cute family owned nook.

While the aesthetic ambiance is nice, the coffee shop is pretty lacking. Although they have a decent selection of drinks modeling Starbucks, their pricing, product availability-quality, and service are no Starbucks experience. While I was able to get a mocha made to order as I wanted, even though I watched the barista steam it right in front of me, by the time I walked back to my room to drink it, it was already stone cold. ‍ Furthermore, I wanted a quiche Lorraine for breakfast, which was the whole point of my visit or else I would not have bothered to stop by--they had no quiche at all and no egg bites--only cold non-protein options. Additionally, the pastry case also was missing most of the items on the menu posted on the counter. The pastries also did not look fresh. Finally, while the barista was polite and efficient, somehow he did just not impress me as being very friendly and the cost for a Starbucks equivalent tall was that of a Venti--better off to just go to Starbucks to get a hot drink that is the size for which you are paying. There are many good coffee and breakfast places in the area. Would not waste you time coming here--go elsewhere.
