😠 Ordered a strawberry liquado but it tasted like water and ice, no flavor. Place is clean and new but too many school kids just hanging around inside. People often mention coffee, great, good, work, Great, super, tacos,

    What an amazing place... Great coffee, great food, little "areas" to sit and talk, and colorful. Wonderful in so many ways.

    Smells really good and it’s cute but customer services made me want to run away as far as possible so I didn’t end up getting anything, I had to greet them and felt like I was their coworker who came into work late , but thankfully I found a delicious cafe called SEGUNDO COFFE LAB further down milby street super good breakfast tacos and it’s a cute spot with small shops in the same building and the workers at segundo were super sweet and nice ! I didn’t want to leave ! It’s inside the Ironworks building highly recommend! Don’t let this place ruin your experience in the east end because there are a lot of other super awesome with great customer service less than 3minutes away from blanca’s cafe .

    I love this little coffee shop. It was quiet so I was able to get work done without being super distracted. The food was fresh made, affordable and the serving size was perfect. The only thing I would change is I would have made the salsa spicier, but I like it hot.

    Plentiful seating, quiet, and great coffee! I had been wanting to pass by here for some time and finally got the chance to. This spot is great to have meetings, catchup with friends, and get work done. Didn’t see many charging outlets. You can work done here with minimal distraction. Though there is a school across the street so aside from when they let out, still a good spot to do work.

    Bianca’s café is a great little place. I read some of her negative reviews. I guess everyone may not like a place, One of the reviewers gave her a one star and said she didn’t purchase anything. If she would have got a cup of coffee and smoked With lonely stoner perhaps she would’ve liked it. I love it when I see our youth training in business. Do your thing Bianka. You are doing a good job

    Great local coffee shop with affordable and quality coffee. Friendly employees and a cozy, clean environment! I try to come here at least once a week, and its typically the only place I'll buy coffee at anymore. Definitely recommend anyone to stop by and try it out.

    I love this place. I work within walking distance and have started going regularly. They espresso is very good. I have had an Americana and cappuccino so far and both are great. I haven’t eaten much of the food but love the breakfast tacos. I’m from corpus and more accustomed to the texmex style of breakfast taco. What they have here reminds me of tacos from home which I don’t find many places in south east Houston so I LOVE it. It would also be a great quiet spot to read/work. Has an awesome vibe and chill ambiance. If you go, please don’t be loud and ruin it for the rest of us.

    This place is awesome! Stopped by for lunch today and everything was delicious. I had the chicharrón mollete with an agua de jamaica and my colleague had the panini and we both loved it. Everyone was super friendly which is always a plus! Keep up the great work!

    Vibe- This cafe is in Second Ward and they’ve been open for about 4 years. There’s some tables outside to sit and there’s tables, couches, and bar stools to sit at inside. They serve coffee and some food as well. Customer service- Good! Food/drinks- I got a hot matcha latte with oatmilk and lavender and a hot chai latte with oatmilk and vanilla; they were both decent tasting. Parking- There’s parking under a building next to the cafe with a good amount of spots.
