Good drinks, friendly service, and nice open seating area. So far I've tried the matcha with coconut juice drink and cashew avocado smoothie. Both delicious! I can tell that the owners are putting a lot of attention and care in their establishment. The menu is creative and covers more than just matcha and coffee - it goes into baked goods and even a rice plate meal. The restrooms are very clean and well managed. The staff looks like a determined team aimed to succeed. Well done! If I had to be picky, minor improvements can be for the tables to be periodically wiped down and cleaned. There were a few wet spots and a finished tray of food, but perhaps the staff was just a bit busy at that point. Overall, doesn't stop me from wiping my own table before sitting and enjoying my drink with the wifey! read more

I liked the shop it'a a Vietnamese cafe. They have some food, pastries, and coffee/matcha there. I tried their matcha einspanner and it was creamy and tasted almost like ice cream. The matcha grassy flavor was subtle and so I think it's more milky with a hint of matcha. So, it tasted more like an ice cream milkshake if you will. It was really good especially If you're in the mood for a dessert. I'd come back to try the coffees. The inside is cute and spacious. They also had a selfie machine if You put in your order number you can take a photo. read more

This is a cute and cozy cafe. A great place to hang out with friends, study or get some work done. There's a small photobooth printer you can use with your receipt number so make sure to keep your receipt! We ordered the Springberry Matcha Latte, Thai Green Milk Tea, and the Herbal Tea. The matcha flavor itself was good, not the best but better than other places. The Thai tea was basic and I enjoyed the herbal tea on a hot, humid day. Will come back to try their other drinks. read more

Wait time wasn't too terrible on the day I went, given it was a Friday evening... the price was a little steep, but in this economy, it's to be expected. The interior was super cute and cozy as well. Anyways, the Matcha Einspinner at Emm Cafe was definitely one of the better matcha drinks I've tried from a cafe! Very creamy, not too sweet at 100% sugar, and you can definitely taste the matcha! I noticed they whisk it in-store too; the whipped cream aspect of the drink was good, but it can overpower the matcha a bit if you don't mix it well. But overall, really delicious & I'd return to try their other drinks! My friend enjoyed their coconut oat matcha too. :D read more

Love a new matcha cafe! Emm Cafe is one of the newest cafes in Chinatown, and one of the best ones! With plenty of offerings from matcha to coffee to smoothies, and even food!, Emm has got it all. I ordered the Jasmine Milk Tea with Avocado foam and it was a great pairing! I would have never thought of this combo. Both refreshing with a little sweetness to it and super creamy. For the matcha drinks, you can tell they use quality matcha based off of the vibrant green color. The space itself is great - it's comfortable and bright and super chill. One of the owners stopped by to make sure our drink was good and stayed to talk for a while, providing fantastic customer service, Highly recommend checking Emm out! I know I'll be back very soon! read more

I got to try the jasmine matcha and the avocado coffee. The matcha flavor was lackluster, which was a disappointing because the color looked good. I think the jasmine overpowered it a bit. I didn't adjust the coffee, but it was a bit too sweet for my taste and not that strong compared to the competition in the area. Perhaps it was the avocado. I'd like to go back and try their other menu items. Customer service was good; the cashier walked me through the menu. It's also a cute place to study and hang out with friends. read more

Came to check out the new cafe in bellaire and thought the interior was adorable! They have a receipt photobooth for their customers to tape their photos on the wall, and the colors and theme of the cafe are very bright and cute. I can tell this place care about their matcha quality and the way they create their matcha, and you can watch the baristas make your drink! I ordered the matcha einspanner and spring berry matcha. I like the einspanner and thought that the cream and matcha ratio was good, it was on the thicker side, but sweet and creamy 7.5/10. The spring berry matcha was a strawberry matcha w/ strawberry and matcha foam (?) and topped with chocolate dusted with strawberries. The drink was okay, the strawberry flavor was there but there wasn't anything special about the drink, it was a bit milky 6/10. read more

Êmm Cafe is a new spot in Houston's Chinatown (Bellaire). They're quite popular for their matcha drinks. They also serve coffee, milk teas, and food! The inside was very clean and cute. Had lots of seating too! This day, I only ordered the coconut oat matcha. It was SO YUMMY. probably my favorite coconut matcha I've had in Houston. I definitely want to come back and try more drink options and some snacks. read more

Êmm Cafe was such a beautiful and aesthetics place, I loved the blue and yellow theme! The place was crowded on a Wednesday afternoon and it took a while for drinks to come out. We got the Springberry Matcha & Emm Einspanner. The springberry matcha was a strawberry matcha with some toppings on top. The matcha flavor was too light and the strawberry syrup was very subtle, overall the drink was ok. The Emm Einspanner was a Viet coffee latte and the coffee wasn't too strong, but it was still pretty good overall. The prices here were very expensive ($9+ per drink) even though the drinks were mediocre at best. Today was their last day for the 15% off soft opening promotions. After this they will be closed for a bit to get ready for grand opening. They seemed pretty packed already so I hope it will turn out well for them :) Loved all the decor and clean aesthetics, but I would try something else next time! read more

Upon entering the cafe, it has a clean and cozy atmosphere. They also have a cute little receipt photobooth! Lots of different areas to take aesthetic photos. Their parking is shared with the plaza. During peak times, there may be difficulty with finding parking. There's a good amount of seats and outlets. I would definitely go here to study on the weekday. Their menu has a variety of options (matcha, coffee, milk tea, etc.). So far I've tried a couple of their matcha drinks. - Jasmine Matcha (5/5) - Matte Latcha (4/5) - matcha cold whisk (5/5) - matcha einspanner (3/5 too sweet for me) They also have some baked goods like coffee bun and salted bun. I've had their salted bun and it pairs really well with their matcha! They're currently doing 15% off during their soft opening! The prices are pretty average with their competitors. This place is definitely worth coming back to! read more

Êmm Cafe - inside - Cafes Near Me - Houston, Texas

Clean ambiance with friendly servers. There's a tiny tv where you can take photos but most people's hogged it and I was alone so no point. No wonder why this side of the plaza is so pack now. Lots of parking but it's shared among a big plaza. This side of the plaza used to not be pack but it is now. If you can brave the Houston sun then walking a bit won't be an issue. Currently, there's a 15% off soft opening discount. I couldn't get my hands on their salted buns but their Einspänner matcha and herbal tea are delicious. It took about 30 minutes for the matcha but that's cause it's done by hand and they were so packed inside. What I dislike are their lids! Not convenient to-go if you're ordering lots of drinks. Prices are not cheap. About $9/drink. read more

I've walked passed this place a few times as it's only a few blocks from my house. Today was the day to give it a try. I was initially excited, but then I saw the prices. These drinks would have to be out of this world to justify $20 for 2 drinks. Sadly they didn't live up to my dreams. The Thai Milk Tea was freshly made, but rather average in flavor. The Springberry Matcha Latte was nicely presented and I liked the candy sticking out of the top. It's not my flavor profile of choice. It is well made, not lumpy, and the Springberry has a nice texture making it unique. Average or slightly above. The vibe is nice, as is the music. It could be a nice date place, but I'd prefer more comfortable chairs if I was sitting here for a while. read more

A cute place with plenty of space to chill with friends and family! The interior is super aesthetic and blew up on instagram. Their drinks are super unique, and many options with coffee and for the matcha drinks as well. When finishing ordering and get your receipt, you have an option to use the mini Photo Booth printer! They have limited prints per receipt. I got their spring berry matcha latte, which was pretty good! The worker was helpful and even let me know they use 4g of matcha. It does get pretty crowded in there, but would definitely come back again! read more

Lots of people in here on a Sunday afternoon. We got a few different matcha drinks and they were hit or miss. Some were good, some were watered down; mine was somewhere in the middle. I think einspanner probably the best? But also for a $9 drink, it should not be this hit or miss. read more

Emm Cafe just opened, and I'm already loving the ambiance - it's super cute, welcoming and spacious. It's a great spot to hang out, or catch up with friends. They even have a little Photo Booth you can use after making a purchase. I also love that Wobbles Studio created stickers for them! They're so cute and definitely worth checking out (I'm a huge fan). I visited during a pop-up sticker event during their Soft Opening, and unfortunately they had a power outage so the drink menu was limited. I can't wait to come back to try their matcha and their coffee! (: read more

(Name/location) They're in that plaza besides Crown Seafood (Atmosphere/decor) Lots of cutesy vibes. Plenty of outlets to work and study. Wifi available for you to sit and enjoy. (The menu/dishes) Haven't had the food yet. (The ingredients/the prices) Prices are slightly higher than those in the area for the amount of beverage you get. (The service/the waiters) The cashiers are helpful guiding you towards what you wanted. read more

Friends and I went to the new emm cafe in Houston while studying for finals. They had a 15% discount promotion and were packed the whole time we were there. I got the matcha einspanner and it came out relatively fast. The sweetness of the matcha was pretty good but the einspanner itself could be more sweeter. I really liked the jasmine flavor of the Jasmine matcha, I liked this one more than the einspanner. They had cute things there such as this photo booth that's free to use read more

I came to try their drinks after hearing they were officially open. Walking in, the space was well decorated, lots of seating, and pretty color scheme. The staff were nice and friendly. I ordered 3 drinks to try being the êmm einspanner, matcha einspanner, and jujube tea. I looked at the menu during their soft opening and noticed that they did take away some items along with lowering the price. The êmm einspanner was Vietnamese iced coffee with a cream top. The cream top was sweet and fluffy but the iced coffee itself wasn't strong taste very lackluster. As for the matcha einspanner, the staff did ask if you want to add extra matcha for a stronger taste than the regular 4g added. The matcha was good but definitely needed the extra shot of matcha since it's a lot more milky without it. As the jujube tea, it was nice and refreshing with different toppings. Looking at the my drinks compared to the drinks during the soft opening, I noticed in the two einspanner that there was barely any cream top in my drinks than pictures in others where there was a nice layer of cream top. Along with there being a lot of ice especially in the jujube tea. Overall, the drink were okay and could have been better especially with how pricey they are. read more

Great place to get a variety of drinks that include matcha, smoothies, coffee, and tea. They also have pastries and hot food. Service was good, big bright and open space to dine in. I got 50% sweetness and it was almost as sweet as a 70% drink. I loved the aesthetic and colors inside the cafe. I highly recommend and would come back. read more

Matcha einspanner: 4/5 good but wish matcha flavor was stronger. Sweet but not too sweet Jasmine avocado milk tea: 4/5 avocado flavor was stronger than the avocado coffee. Sweet but not too sweet. Avocado coffee: 3/5 avocado flavor wasn't very strong. Still yummy though but would try something different next time There's a cute photo printer on the right side of the store! You need the code on your receipt to access the camera. Not sure if that's a permanent installation or just for opening. Loved the atmosphere of the cafe. Busy for a Tuesday evening filled with people hanging out or studying. Bright and inviting atmosphere -- aesthetic decor. read more

Êmm Cafe - Avocado coffee, avocado jasmine milk tea, matcha einspanner - Cafes Near Me - Houston, Texas

The ambience is great and it looks like the owners have put lots of thought into their brand! I ordered the Springberry Latte last week, and the flavor and sweetness was on point. I was a bit confused on whether there's supposed to be a cream top (and I see some other reviewers were confused as well), since there was a tiny teaspoon amount of cream that dissolved in the drink within a few seconds. I would say the matcha is good quality, but it looks like it wasn't whisked correctly which made for a very grainy drink (you can see the particles in the photo. I also think the drink was very milky. Other than that, it was a good drink! read more

Absolutely wonderful! Both the matcha and coffee were 10/10! The service was also excellent. They were quick, welcoming, and friendly. There is plenty of seating and a very nostalgic Photo Booth area. The paintings/display is also beautifully put together. One of the best I've had in a while. read more

I've been waiting for this place to open, and I was so excited to finally try it. I ordered the Matcha Einspänne because I wanted to try the thick matcha layer, and it did not disappoint. It was rich, smooth, perfectly balanced, and I did not have to adjust the sugar level at all. I also love the vibrant color and presentation. It looked just as good as it tasted! The place itself is super cute. I love the idea of a mini photo booth. I heard you should keep your receipt if you want to use it, so don't throw it away! Unfortunately, it was too crowded when I visited, so I didn't get a chance to try it. I will definitely be back to try their other drinks. As for the Patongo Pandan, it was just okay. It was a little bit too oily. I felt like I got more oil and air than the actual dough, so it wasn't as satisfying as I had hoped. I came here absolutely starving and thirsty after being out in Houston's heat, so this review comes first, and the photos will have to wait until my second visit. read more

This is such a cute spot! My friend and I got the matcha einspanner and the avocado matcha, and both were good! The matcha flavor was pretty strong and sweet. They also had a receipt photo booth!
