Nice, quiet coffee shop with great atmosphere and excellent service. The cafe au lait I had was one of the best in recent memory. Wonderful chill experience on the Friday before Memorial Day Weekend!!
This little place seemed cool at first, they had a Cortado on the menu. Good start. I also got a vanilla iced latte. Good so far, then I go to ask for whip cream for a Pupaccino for my little pup and the cashier proceeds to tell me very annoyed that they don't do Pupaccino's. I offered to pay for some whip cream. So get this y'all, apparently they are so bougie they don't do whip cream at this place because it's beneath them. Hmmm, they had hot chocolate on the menu but no whip cream, doesn't make sense. I wonder if they know they can make they're own whip cream? Love coffee, some what of a purist, but come on, don't get on a high horse about whip cream, that's just a little too much for me.
We happened upon Verbena Coffee on a recent trip to Houston and were immediately drawn in by the soothing ambience. Their seasonal honey lavender latte and their matcha were both perfect.
Great coffee. Happy and genuine service. Warm and inviting atmosphere. Each drink is made with care and tastes like it. Get yours in a ceramic mug, grab a comfy seat and stay for a bit. We all could use a little relax in our lives. Enjoy the rotating artist gallery wall. Take in the plant life and enjoyable smells. People watch the comings and goings of the local Verbena enthusiast. Your day will be a little bit brighter and a little bit less stressed after this. You're welcome. (Thank you, Verbena) Also, The Root Haus has added a nice little setup of quality house plants to purchase inside verbena. Take a little bit of that Verbena charm home to enjoy!
Stopped by to try out this local coffee shop and their service was good. I ordered a [yummy] iced white mocha latte. Would recommend!
"I had an amazing experience at Verbena Coffee! The ambience was perfect for a cozy morning coffee, and the taste of every cup we tried was out of this world. I would highly recommend this spot for any coffee lover looking for a delicious and comfortable experience. This is definitely one of our new favorites!"
espresso/latte quality used to be GREAT->then HIT AND MISS depending on barista->now BAD most of the times earlier this week when I was there, the barista's process to make my "latte" was: 1. grind beans 2. place portafilter on scale, remove excess grounds w spoon 3. without redistributing the grounds in the portafilter, tamped them with almost no pressure (with the pressure that you would pet a baby kitten perhaps, i.e., nowhere near the ~30lbs needed) 4. while she made the espresso, another barista steamed the milk up to a carboard consistency (with a loud "whoosh" the whole time, obviously a no-no) 5. dumped the milk along with its thick foam (no microfoam in there) on the espresso hopefully they fix this, and if so I'll remove/revise this review! PS. some baristas there are EXCELLENT. but like I said it's a hit and miss, and lately, mostly a miss. I've even walked away a couple times after I see the not so great baristas..
This place is so cute and the coffee was delicious! Definitely recommend this coffee shop to everyone! The ice mocha latte was so good!
Verbana is an amazing place not only for coffee but also for chilling and freshing your mind. The idea behind the scene is amazing for creating a platform for artist to sell their arts there. Its supper creational spot
House blend is always incredible!
Excellent coffee, stellar service and cute atmosphere. There's some nice quiet desks to work as well. Really impressive.
They did fantastic job on roasting. The notes are pronounced. Every sip is addicting😋😋😋
It was a chill place to relax and drink some coffee. I ordered a cappuccino and I liked the design on it. Kind of a small place and already in the morning it was kind of packed.
Excellent coffee and perfect vibe. Hits all the right notes, and looking forward to coming back.
Nice little coffee shop tucked away in a shopping center. Good coffee and great service. Plus, a cart of books so you can grab a cup of Joe or tea and a book to sit, sip and read.
It’s definitely better than Starbucks!! Extra surprise today !! Local kid’s Artwork on coffee cup insulators😀😀😀😀
I am a former barista, and fellow coffee lover. If you are looking for a quality cup of coffee, this is the place to go! Definitely one of my favorite coffee shops in the EC area.
Great service with Daniel, my coffee was on point and the place was packed! That should tell you enough 🥰
I came in to order coffee and do a review. What a terrible first impression. Before we were even happily greeted I was told that I have to sit outside because I have food. The cashier stated some health code and said because they sell food that we cannot bring food in. It’s 55 degrees outside and I’m not going to do that. There was literally only 2 people in this place. This was my first and last time coming in to this coffee spot. Much better coffee spot right across the street (Tree House Coffee) and they are more welcoming too. They had zero problems with me bringing in a tiny snack. In this day and age why would you chase customers away. I guess y’all have plenty of business and don’t wont new customers.
Best espresso I've had in Houston. I lived in Houston for many years before moving to the Seattle area and beyond. In all the time I lived here, and through all my visits back, I never found a really world class coffee place in Houston till I stumbled across this place. I wouldn't fly to Houston just for the coffee, but if I'm in town, I'll drive here.
