Seating is fine, but hard to manuver a stroller in there, but chair/space was a cute vibe. I ordered an iced latte, and I felt like 7+ dollars is steep for a mediocre latte.

What we received was room temp at best, milk foam was very loose with nothing but huge bubbles (not silky at all) and no latte art that is the norm. It tasted "okay" but highly diluted with little coffee flavor.

Quite the cute and comfy place!…read more I ordered both the pistachio baklava and the chai latte with oat milk. I was slightly disappointed with the baklava, it wasn't bad by any means but it lacked the sweetness and stickiness I've come to expect from arguably one of the tastiest pastries of all time. The pistachio flavor very much overpowered the baklava aspects of the dish, so I could see it being less of an issue with other flavors. The chai latte on the other hand was quite delectable, it had just the right amount of spice and the flavor was both rich and consistent through the entire drink. I was also really impressed by the presentation, both the drink and the dishware brought much joy to my soul. Will definitely be coming back here!

I actually did not get to try anything here, and I do not plan to return…read more Before visiting, I specifically checked Google Maps because I had my dog with me. The listing for this exact location says "pets welcome," so I felt confident stopping by. However, as soon as I walked in, I was greeted by two customers fawning over my dog. Before any staff member greeted me or even acknowledged me as a customer, someone from behind the far counter told me that dogs were not allowed inside. I mentioned that their Google listing says pets are welcome, and the response was that it applies to a different location. That would be fine if it were clear, but the listing I checked had this location's address directly underneath "pets welcome." That is confusing and misleading. What made it more frustrating was the lack of hospitality. There was no greeting, no attempt to clarify kindly, no "We're sorry for the confusion," and no effort to offer a solution like helping me quickly order to go. It felt dismissive. Clear and accurate information matters. If pets are not welcome at this location, the listing should reflect that. I drove out of my way based on that detail, and it ended up being a waste of time and gas. Because of that experience, I chose not to patronize the this location but may try another location one day.

Great coffee! They put a lot more into their coffee than a lot of spots, even offering several…read moretypes of pour overs to choose from -oat places offer one type of pour overs, if that. They offer a variety of savory and sweet pastries but the top option is their Brazilian cheese bread. The consistency can be a little hit or miss but when you get a good, fresh batch is SOO GOOD! The vibe is not your normal, dim light coffee shop. Everything is very new and bright. The music seems to be picked by the workers and I've heard everything from tejano to Die Spitz (play more of this!!). Highly recommend checking this new spot out!

This is a great place…read more Sorry that no one from Houston Chowhounds would join us today but our Coffee and Conversation at Daily Cup VAIV....the coffee and crepes are WONDERFUL. I had visited this place when it first opened and I could tell that they were on their learning curve, so I decided to hold off revisiting. Today I learned that there is a new ownership, going on 3 months. And the new manager owner brings with him four years experience, managing coffee shops in Fredericksburg plus other coffee related projects. They are now using the most excellent. District Coffee, have lots of specialty drinks that I'm dying to try. And the smoked salmon crêpe gets a big thumbs up from all of us here today. Excellent ambiance. Inside and outside.

Finally came back here after not coming for a few years. It's right next to my vet that I go to so…read moreI like to treat myself after taking my pets over there. I believe the first time I came here. I had some breakfast tacos and an iced latte which I did really enjoy. Today I went, and I had a chorizo empanada, a Horchata doughnut, and the Neapolitan latte. The empanada was nice and hot, I do wish it was a little more flavorful but next time I'll probably just add some hot sauce or something. The inside looks really cozy however I didn't stay and eat there since I had my pets in the car. The Horchata doughnut was interesting, was not what I was expecting, but didn't hate it. The Neapolitan latte taste like dessert, was definitely on the sweeter side which the cashier had warned me of. But overall, I really enjoyed it. I do love that they use Bendy straws, it's one of the only coffee shops I've been to that has consistently used them lol.

Very cute little shop I had no idea existed. It's rosca day and I'm like dam where can I find a…read moregood rosca. Yeah there is el bollilo, mi tienda and hacienda bakery but this one caught my eye when going throughly insta. Let me tell you the bread was soooo good and the decor was super nice. It even had nanches which aren't my fave but my families so that was a very nice surprise. Had guava pieces as the jewels of the kings and candied oranges. Normally I avoid rosca because the bread as I mention is dry or too hard but this one was very good, I'm guessing it's the same dough as their donuts and I would take it! I called and asked if there were any and the lady was like I hear how overwhelm you are so I'll just set aside this one on display. Papa blesssss! Found my new go to spot for rosca! I hope in the future they have different flavors or even preorders because I def would place one.

The best black sesame latte in Houston…read more I'm always looking for black sesame flavored drinks ever since I tried it in Seattle, so I was excited that TwoTone had it. The nuttiness of the sesame goes SOOO well with the espresso taste and it's a good creaminess too. I also like the texture of the bits of sesame seeds in the drink. The aesthetic of the cafe is modern with street-style flairs, it's a really cool space. I also love that there are Filipino flavors on the menu like ube and pandan. Most workers are super nice and say your name like they know you. They're also super attentive to ensure that everything with your order is perfect. Jonah was very welcoming and helpful, making sure we got a menu while in line! The weekdays seem to be better for wait-time, with little to no wait. The weekends however are packed and usually have lines. If you're not a line person, I would definitely come on a weekday. TwoTone is probably the best specialty coffee you can get in Houston, especially in terms of Asian flavors and creaminess. If it was closer to inner Houston, I would probably come here everyday.

My first visit was a 1star but I gave it a second try because a friend asked me to…read more I was told that this was an amazing new coffee shop and just happened to be on my route to work. It's off the feeder road of I-10 and in an inconspicuous place. It's a retail space and at first glance it looks empty and kind of shady granted, I was there around 7 AM. It may be busier and more lively later in the day or on weekends. In any case I pulled up and I saw their sign, but I was kind of concerned that it was closed because you couldn't see through the windows and again the parking lot just looked empty . I went to the door and went in. It's a very minimalist space and the decor of cold concrete floors matched the attitude and personalities of the people working that day. I was never graded, and there were a couple people sitting, waiting for coffees... There was no menu to be seen at first glance but I have a very simple order that I had in my mind because I like espresso and not sweet sugary drinks. I walked up to the register and there was a young girl who just looked at me like I was bothering her her by being in front of her. She never smiled, and she just waited for me to order. I told her good morning and she replied "Morning"...barely opened her mouth, not welcoming (or sincerity) and no smile. My order was simple.: three shots of espresso, 2 ounces of half-and-half and caramel drizzle mixed in the espresso. She looked at me weird and said ...so you want a latte? I said no not at all because I only want 2 ounces of half-and-half. I don't want all the milk of a latte. She didn't look down at the computer and kind of looked behind at a barista, and then looked back at the computer and said we do our shots in doubles .... Meaning she wouldn't give me only three shots I had to buy four. I thought that was interesting since other local shops indulge me without an issue, but I agreed to four shots. She asked me if that was it and I said yes..... I was very surprised but paid over $10 for my order of one drink! I paid because honestly, I was already ready to get out. I paid and I waited about 15 minutes for my coffee, even though there was only one person waiting for their coffee before me. I got my drink and left before tasting it. It was awful. The pull was not done well and the coffee tasted almost sour. Ugh. I was so disappointed. The very next day, my coworker said give it another try maybe it was just an off day . She also said she'd buy my coffee to make up for it so I couldn't turn that down This time I went a little bit later there was about three people in line before me. They had a lot more staff working probably about five people in total versus three the previous day. There was a different girl to front who took my order and was the total opposite of the lady the day before; bright eyed, kind and very welcoming. My coffee was still over $10 and this time it took me 35 minutes to get my coffee. I don't know if they had DoorDash orders or what, but I couldn't understand why there was a lot more workers and it took double the time to get my coffee. Once I got my coffee, it did taste better than my first visit, but still had a little bit of sour taste... Not as much as before though. Even if it ended up tasting better, I could not validate paying $10 for my coffee and waiting up to 35 minutes for it.. Especially when I can go to any of my other local coffee shops that I normally frequent for a less than $5 coffee (that only has three shots that I want) and the great service and flavor is always consistent. I never want to see any business fail. So I hope that the owners will discuss the importance of consistency in making their product, as well as being hospitable. There are so many coffee shops in Houston that one could choose from.
