    The best coffee in Houston. If I said somewhere else had better coffee, it was before I had coffee from Greenway Coffee. The coffees are aromatic and very mild sweetness (which I like). The baristas definitely care about coffee as they are well trained in making them. They are located in Greenway plaza where there are plenty seating, tables, outlets, USB outlets, etc. You can get a parking validation for ~2hrs. There's also several other restaurants in the area.

    im glad i visited this spot. beautiful and spacious area. during the lunch time from 11am-1pm the tables might get a bit packed with noise, but other hours are quiet. there are cameras and security officers so it feels safe. i like how distanced everything was and i like the color changing gem fireplace. i ordered their iced vanilla latte with oatmilk and it tasted very good, i really liked it. overall i will be back, and the visitor parking rates are decent compared to some other places like downtown when you have to pay $25 vs here $6. the staffs are kind and friendly.

    Great service. Very clean area, plenty of seating, great aroma, and decent prices. Would highly recommend especially if you work in Greenway Plaza or frequent the HUB regularly!

    Some of the best coffee in Houston. Baristas are efficient and friendly. The donuts are overpriced and underwhelming, but I won't knock a star off for that because the coffee is so dang good. Overall, I think this is easily a 5 star coffee shop. The milk has a smooth creamy consistency that most coffee shops could only dream of achieving.

    Its nice, typical coffee bar. Nothing overtly special, but good coffee.

    Really the best kolaches I've ever had--in close competition with Hruska's (between Houston and Austin). The soft bread on both the savory and fruit kolaches is just so fluffy and delicious. Though I usually don't like fruit kolaches, I really liked the apple kolache--it tasted like apple pie but with a softer crust.

    I love finding cute local coffee shops and Greenway was perfect! The lattes & bakegoods were so good! I definitely recommend stopping by and spending time there.

    Great tea (and coffee) down in Greenway Plaza next to an (almost) open-air seating area that features live music over the lunch hour on Thursday and Fridays.

    11/01/17 Update: The cafe is still in the underground food court, but has moved and upgraded their store. Previous post: Much better than what you'd expect to find in an underground food court. Friendly service, good coffee, and they offer parking validation.

    Great Houston coffee - check the website because you can find their coffee at many places in Houston. I recommend the Scrimshaw espresso.

    The literal best coffee I have ever had. I can never go back to Starbucks without being completely disappointed. I love the people who work here, they are always super friendly and accommodating. It is such a treat to have this coffee shop in the same building as my job. Truly grateful!

    Great coffee, great atmosphere, highly recommend! Lost a star because once I ordered a flat white and they gave me half a cup of coffee ... when I asked they told me β€œflat whites are smaller versions of lattes” which is not true so ... I’ll return and ask for β€œa latte with less foam” to break it down for these people πŸ˜‚ still highly recommend tho!

    THIS IS THE PLACE!! I drank at least on coffee from here EVERYDAY! Loved their service - they get to know their customers and memorize their orders - felt like home. Very unsuspectingly placed in the basement of a corporate high rises this little hipster counter serve coffee shop is where my team went every afternoon to revel in the superb coffee and discuss the day. I MISS THIS PLACE SOO MUCH!

    A much overdue post. A Greenway roast from Antigua was my first origin coffee I tired. I was an undergrad at Rice and their beans were what I would get as a special treat to myself to get through finals. I moved away from Houston but still get their beans delivered and they never cease to disappoint! Favorite roaster in TX : )

    Good coffee and tea. The baristas know their offerings in detail when asked what something is which is really nice. The coffee shop is open until 4 as it's mainly meant for people who work in Greenway Plaza. But they offer 2hr parking validation - just ask when ordering. It's located in "The Hub" which is in the lower level of Building 3. There is plenty of seating, and there are other eats you can check out down there as well!

  • 5/5 Jenny J. 3 months ago on Google β€’ 25 reviews New
    This place has amazing iced lattes! My absolute favorite is the caramel iced latte with oat milk β˜•οΈ if you work in a nearby office building I can’t recommend them enough. 5/5

  • 5/5 Alyssa F. 10 months ago on Google β€’ 15 reviews
    Vanilla latte with oatmilk is my favorite order! The lemon poppyseed is to die for. This is not your typical coffee shop it is located in greenway plaza and is down some escalators. Super cool space!

  • 1/5 D T. 2 years ago on Google
    Really the worst bag of coffee. The majority of the beans were busted up which is probably why it tasted stale. Description looked good on Mistobox but quality control is out the window with this roaster

    I requested a drink and they didn't have what I needed. Disappointed. The drink I received wasn't bad but I wanted different.
