Giant Leap Coffee

So happy this place is on my way to work! It is a beautiful building with a cool theme. The baristas are always very sweet and helpful. All the drinks I've had have been delicious. There is seating inside and outside for you to work. Love coming here!

It was my first time. It is tinny but cute and delicious. I purchased the plain croissant, ham croissant and almond croissant, they were delicious but cold. Same they don't warm them because warm will be extremely delicious. They have a nice variety of coffee and I love that. They have the golden milk (ginger and turmeric coffee) it is hot and it is delicious. I was looking for a place to try it and I did it :) I recommended. When you order double check if your coffe is hot or ice because the other coffee I order was the milkway and that was ice.... I thought was hot but was ice.... Even ice was very good, strong and sweet coffee, I recommended too if you like strong flavor coffee. They have few chairs inside as a little bar and several tables outside. The weather today was perfect to enjoy breakfast outside. The place is delicious and cute. The staff is very polite and friendly.

This was our first time recommended by our cousin who has been here many times. The best and first impression was the staff! She was very very friendly, welcoming, helpful. The atmosphere is very nice and well plan. I like that that the decorations was all about space theme which match with the Giant Leap!

We found out later that the owner used to work in NASA on moon landing project. How cool is that.

My sesame latte was great. Perfect combination between coffee and sesame. My husband’s cappuccino was a bit too hot (coffee was made in too hot water temperature which made it a bit over extraction). However, all in all, it was great!

Vibe- This is a cute coffee shop that’s located in uptown park near the galleria. There’s plenty of seating outside and there’s 4 bar stools along the wall inside to sit. I asked one of the baristas about the story behind the shop and she explained that the owner grew up around NASA (a family meme we worked there) so you’ll see some astronauts around the building.

Customer service- Great!

Food/drinks- Hot chai tea latte with oat milk, it was delicious. Definitely one of the best chai lattes I’ve had!

Parking- There’s plenty of parking spots right by the building and lots around in the lot the shop is located in.

Their standard menu is ok. Their seasonal menu is great! Really loved the black sesame latte and parfait-Louie; it made a delicious pick-me-up snack and was served at the perfect temperature. Service was fantastic too. Their outdoor seating was prefect for reading a book and enjoying nice weather. A great little coffee shop; I would definitely go out of my way to come here 😊🚀

Great service and great staff. The second you walk in they make you feel like you are home. Coffee is superb, location is very convenient, love the cute ambiance.
One of my favorite third wave coffee places around the galleria every time I am in Houston.

Cute little coffee shop in Uptown Park! Clean modern design with large window. Astronaut themed. Limited indoor seating. Spacious and cute outdoor seating area. Too hot for the Texas heat!

10:30 So we got ice vanilla latte and ice mocha latte with oat milk, cinnamon roll and jalapeño and cheese scone, didn’t offer to warm it up, the pastries were big and filling but honestly kinda hard to chew and eat 😬. The coffee was good but not something I would drive 23 minutes for. The employees were good. Parking is good. Limited seating inside so you would be most likely sitting outside

Giant Leap Coffee is a great little coffee shop nestled in Uptown Park. They offer coffee roasted by Houston roaster Amaya as well as an assortment of teas and pastries. They also offer a rotating selection of seasonal drinks.

Ambience and service: There's ample parking around the coffee shop, a small amount of seating inside with several outlets for those studying, and a good amount of outdoor seating. The outdoor seating is dog friendly! The interior is nice and clean, and the aesthetic is hip and casual. There's merch at the front, a bathroom in the back, and a cool little area with some history about how the coffee shop was founded by a former NASA astronaut (hence the name and space theme throughout). Very cool! The baristas were nice and explained the menu well. There's wifi!

Drinks: We ordered a mocha latte and iced Jasmine white tea. The latte had a great balance of espresso, milk, and chocolate -- you could really taste the coffee, you got a great texture from the whole milk, and the chocolate added an extra little sweetness that complemented the espresso well. The tea was refreshing and the flavor was robust (for a Jasmine white tea) even despite the fact that it was iced - not diluted at all. It was calming and fragrant, reminding me of the authentic flavor I've had from some loose leaf Jasmine white tea before.

Overall, we were very impressed by the quality of the drinks here and are looking forward to coming back. The prices are also very reasonable compared to many other coffee shops around Houston, making this place even better! Make sure to give this place a try if you need a coffee fix while in the Galleria area.

limited space inside, most of the seating is outside. the fennel-bergamot syrup is quite interesting. not my favorite but I’m a big fan of unique flavors. shop is located in a plaza with furniture stores and restaurants.
