    Tried Waygood and liked it. The drinks were good - smooth, flavorful, and not overly sweet. Staff was friendly and the place has a chill, welcoming vibe in the Kirby area. Definitely a nice spot to stop by whether you're in a rush or want to hang out for a bit.

    This place exceeded my expectations! One of the better tasting coffee cloud Matcha that I've had. It was so refreshing and very creamy. The place inside was very nice too. I highly recommend and would come back.

    Pup cup

    Honestly, might be my new favorite coffee shop! They also have a drive thru which is very convenient. Service was nice and they have tons of drinks to decide on. I'm super excited to come back because I wanted to get a few different things, but for this time I chose the Brown Butter Latte, which I thought was great! Sweet, but not like your swallowing sugar! When we got to the window, the barista asked if we wanted a pup cup too for my dog! Super sweet and friendly here! Will definitely be coming back to try more drinks and food!!

    This was THE PERFECT STUDYING ENVIRONMENT!! To start, the interior is very roomy and they have small tables and a very large table. There are also a few outlets and they have free wifi! Now the coffee, I've recently been hooked onto cinnamon in my coffee and I believe that this is the best cinnamon coffee I've had so far in Houston. It wasn't too milky or overly sweet. It tasted like a 'grown-up' version of Cinnamon Toast Crunch milk (with the coffee of course). The baristas are nice and drinks come out quick! They also have a drive thru. I definitely plan on coming back as I've also heard great things about their matcha.

    I love this place with my whole heart. From the drinks to the atmosphere. The baristas are kind. What's not to love? When it comes to coffee, I'm picky about what I deemed as amazing, but this place is a knock out!!!! Especially their lattes top with cold foam. I literally get so happy when I'm here. Great place to study too! Peaceful.

    Strawberry Matcha

    Best strawberry matcha I've had. It has a different name in the menu that I can't recall, but it always hits the spot. Service and ambiance both are 10/10. It's always clean in there.

    Matcha latte
    Aqsa A.

    Matcha latte was great, well-balanced, and tasted authentic! The brown butter latte was so creamy and delicious, highly recommend this drink. Service is great, and the vibe of the place is nice for anyone looking for a quiet study spot!

    Island Brew and Waygood Latte was incredible
    Nick S.

    I had heard great things about this spot, and on one of my days off I decided to swing by and check it out From the outside you can't help double take at the trendy and vibrant exterior art/signage. The space is modern, and as you walk in it's fairly spacious with seating, well curated decor, and a comfortable vibe (good music at a good volume, and plenty of AC). There is a cozy yet tendy patio space as well The counter is immaculate and looks straight out of a magazine with beautiful light fixtures, hanging plants, and other art... yet not cluttered in the slightest. It was a nice touch that there is a well organized straw/napkin and complimentary water station. The WiFi password is also displayed behind the bar The menu is brightly displayed on 3 screens. Waygood has a variety of signature drinks (espresso, cold brew, and matcha adjacent) The staff were very busy with the drive thru orders, but I was greeted with a genuine smile. I also asked for some recommendations, and the staff was more than accommodating and helpful. My order came out in a timely manner (2 drinks in ~2min) The flavors are incredible, and the textures are smooth. I can't do it justice, but this has become one of my new go-to's If you're on the go, they have a speedy drive thru service, but it's also a great place to enjoy a cup inside. Surprisingly for the area there's also plenty of parking Some tips: I'm a sucker for coconut coffee, so, I recommend the Island Brew (cold brew). I also LOVE espresso, and the Waygood Latte was incredible. I came a little later in the day, so, they were out of most of their pastries, so, come early and try one of their tasty looking breakfast items Cheers!!

    Way Good Coffee truly lives up to its name! Great coffee, friendly service, and a warm, inviting ambience. Parking can be a bit tricky, but it's worth the effort once you step inside!

    Waygood latte
    Trish N.

    I am usually not a coffee drinker but after I tried a sip of my friend's drink, I knew I wanted to try it for myself. The waygood latte did not disappoint! I love that there is a sweetness to it while still tasting the coffee flavor. I love the creaminess that comes from the foam at the top. I enjoy sitting at their big table to do some work with my friends. Their music and ambiance is such a nice vibe! The only downsides I have is that parking is very limited and that their wifi sometimes does not work. But overall, I enjoy Waygood so much!

    Pumpkin Matcha, Blueberry Chai, Strawberry Matcha
    Regina K.

    We got 3 drinks the blueberry chai, the pumpkin Matcha, and the strawberry Matcha. Out of the three the strawberry Matcha was my favorite personally and had the right amount of sweetness, and the flavor profile was good. I didn't really like the other two that much. My friend loved the pumpkin one, so definitely to each his own. My other friend chose the blueberry chai, personally, it was too sweet for me, but I see the vision. We went through the drive-through, the service was quick. Upon driving past the shop, it looked like there was some seating area inside.

    strawberry fields matcha
    Angeline P.

    Tried their brown sugar matcha and strawberry fields matcha and was so surprised by how good they were! Both weren't too sweet and I loved how creamy they were with the oat milk. Service was great and it's a cute spot to sit and chat/study! Lots of parking so it was super convenient! Will definitely be back!

    I've seen this place for a couple of months now and I had to stop by! I went through the drive through, so I don't have anything to say about the ambiance inside. The drive through process was quick and efficient. I also was asked if I wanted to sign up for rewards in the drive through line which was nice. I got the sunset lemonade and let me tell you, it was DELICIOUS!! I I really enjoyed how fresh it was and it was the perfect blend of sweet and tart. I will definitely be back in the future!

    Don't come to this location. They took 30 mins to make an iced coffee. Other locations are much faster and efficient

    Love the ambiance of this place! Chic, vintage vibes with plenty of space. There's an upstairs and…read moresome outdoor seating. Staff was ok... not exceptionally warm and friendly but good enough. I asked a question and the girl responded to me without turning around or making eye contact - gave me the impression she was annoyed that I was asking a question. There were only two baristas working on a Saturday morning so perhaps they were stressed because it was busy. Coffee was delicious and served with a small chocolate mint. They also serve beer. Variety of pastries. Small parking lot that fills up quickly! There was a line of people outside waiting to get in a few minutes before they opened. They don't open until 9 am which is late for a coffee shop. Highly recommend if you're looking for a cute destination for a casual date or out with a friend.

I love the upper level deck and snagging a cute table overlooking a window. It's definitely a 'one size fits all' that is great for morning work/studying, light afternoon catch up, or a cozy late night vibe. Traditionally, I've seen a lot of people studying during the week while a bit more of a lively feel on weekend evenings. People are very polite but do follow the courtesy of waiting to find a table until after they order, since it can get a little busy. Overall, they are quick with coffee orders with a variety of pastries. Parking is difficult (but it is Montrose!), so anticipate adding a little time to your drive to find a spot. Worth checking out!

Pro-Tips for the Budget-Conscious: - If you time your visit between 4:00 PM and 5:00 PM, all pastries are 50% off. It's easily the best deal in the neighborhood and the perfect excuse to clear out the display case. - Student Discount: Don't forget to flash your ID! They offer a student discount, which makes this a prime "study treat" spot. The Vibe: Seating is quite limited indoors, so don't bank on a large group table. However, they have a small outdoor patio that is lovely when the weather is behaving. It's a great spot to people-watch while you get your sugar fix. Friendly staff, aesthetic treats, and a massive discount if you play your cards right. I'll be back (probably tomorrow at 4:01 PM?).

The staff are extremely courteous and helped us to decide between the Shakshuka (Which I had tried before and is amazinggg) and the Sambusak. We went with the Sambusak and once again, I was not disappointed! The pastry was hearty and well baked, with a yummy filling consisting of eggplant and other veggies and a semi cooked egg. I also had an iced mocha, which though a classic, was refreshingly well made and luxurious, with a balanced sweetness. A great spot to spend some time!

    This place could be amazing…read more 1. The pricing is good value and the coffee is good. Here's the improvements. 1. Don't assume everyone is a regular. 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.

Dunno why I haven't made this an annual order, but the pistachio cake still-as the kids say-slaps. It's light, not too sweet, and has a lot of pistachio and pistachio flavor. Goes GREAT with coffee and tea. I do think the cake layers were a bit too thin; which can be overpowered by the icing. Perhaps it was our batch but I don't remember the cake layers being so thin and sparse.
