Was
looking
for
a
coffee
spot
to
do
some
reading
and
writing
into
the
evening,
and
this
one
popped
up
as
one
of
the
few
in
Houston
that
is
open
late
(until
midnight
seven
days
a
week).
The
place
has
a
tastefully
eclectic
decor,
with
walls
covered
by
old
posters
and
travel
advertisements
of
cities
throughout
Europe
(Less
youthful
Houstonians
will
appreciate
the
90s
era
Continental
Airlines
placard).
There's
also
a
"God
Save
the
Bean"
mural
of
Queen
Elizabeth
II
and
framed
coffee
bags
from
around
the
world
such
as
Brazil,
Honduras,
and
Ethiopia.
Seating
is
more
than
ample
with
lots
of
tables
and
chairs
spaced
throughout.
As
far
as
menu
items,
there
is
food
(all-day
breakfast
and
primarily
Greek
and
Italian-type
dishes),
beer,
and
wine
on
offer
in
addition
to
coffee.
I
was
also
happy
to
see
that
all
said
coffee
is
sourced
locally
from
Houston
roaster
Geva
Coffee.
On
this
occasion,
I
just
ordered
regular
drip
coffee
as
I
didn't
need
anything
extravagant,
Ordering
brought
the
one
criticism
of
the
entire
experience
which
was
that
the
barista
seemed
a
bit
inexperienced
and
didn't
know
what
country
of
origin
the
coffee
beans
for
that
day's
drip
coffee
were
when
asked.
No
matter,
though,
as
the
coffee
tasted
good
regardless,
and
I
asked
more
out
of
curiosity
than
any
actual
snobbishness
or
concern
I'm
often
more
of
a
nocturnal
person,
but
as
mentioned
before,
it
can
be
hard
to
find
quality
coffee
places
in
Houston
that
cater
to
the
evening
crowd.
I'm
glad
to
have
found
another
place
that
checks
that
box
while
also
just
being
a
solid
establishment
in
general.
