    Wow! I came by because I had a coupon but it was amazing! The food and coffee were both delicious and fresh. It looks like a cyclist's wonderland. Not to mention the awesome fast and friendly service. The owner was extremely kind and sweet to us. I will definitely be coming back!

    Totally cute cafe right by the park. The pastry and latte I tried were amazing! Indoor and outdoor seating. The owner was super nice & and will tell you all about her travels if you ask. My husband rates cafes on a scale of how many times better than Starbucks and he gives this place 5X!

    Fresh and clean new coffee shop in the hub of the Heights. Very convenient location and extremely high quality coffee, juices, and food. Experienced and friendly team and definitely worth checking out! I love they have a deck to work from and enjoy the beautiful Houston weather.

    Awesome brunch Cafe located right off White Oak Bayou! Place is very welcoming for kids and families. They have a printer on-site if you are needing a place to work and they even have towels to dry off your sweat of you are coming in from a run or a bike ride. The peanut butter and banana bagel and the strawberry and Nutella bagel were very good! The place even provided colors and coloring pages for my kids as we waited. Going back for the French toast as it is recommended!

    Great spot. Very good coffee and pastries. I ordered a quad cappuccino and it was very nicely done ... as good as any in town. The chocolate zucchini bread was fantastic. Love that the shop is geared to fitness minded people. Lots of running and triathlon themed items around the shop. Also art work and coffee and tea retail items to purchase. Parking was straightforward. Easy access to the Bayou trails as well.

    Love the place for its options in mocktails and non-alcoholic drinks. Had the tropical passion drink and a croissant. The drink had a fruity(guava) flavor, not just watery/light but had a rich juicy feel.

    I visited because I ran with a group and had breakfast afterwards. The interior is vibrant and colorful. You could tell the employees enjoyed the presence and business of the athletic crowd. I had overnight oats and water and it was perfect after 5 miles. And they are high tech and will take Apple Pay on your watch. I really enjoyed my brief visit and I look forward to my next time.

    The breakfast tacos!!! They have a great chef here who’s also made some excellent breakfast sandwiches on croissants for me. The iced lattes never miss, and of course the doggo loves the pup cups. There’s plenty of seating inside and out and the people here are a bunch of sweeties. There’s also a big backyard that not a lot of people seem to know about, if you want some extra space for the dog or kiddos. 10/10.

    This is such a uniquely awesome coffee shop! Highly recommended. Friendly and fun staff, great coffee and food, and the setting is clean, stylish, and chill. Try the chocolate zucchini muffin…it’s my new addiction! The owner Lynda really cares and is passionate about creating a great experience.

    Stopped by on the way out of town and so glad we did. This place is beautiful inside, with lots of seating space, inside and out. It is very modern and clean. The staff is very friendly, patient and helpful. The coffee was delicious and so we're the cookies! Definitely stopping by again.

    Wow, what a nice find for a pit stop along White Oak Bayou. I had a horchata with an espresso shot added that was a nice mix of cinnamon and coffee. I also tried their homemade electrolyte drink which was excellent as well. The shop is very runner/cyclist friendly and they provide cold towels on the weekends. The owner, Linda, was very welcoming as well. Will be back for sure!

    Overall great experience here! Loved the eccentric interior decorating! The mocha was good and the chocolate zucchini muffin was even better! I will be visiting again!

  • 5/5 Blake P. 5 months ago on Google
    Nice relaxed vibe to get some work done or talk with friends while you enjoy some coffee and food. They have plenty of coffee choices as well as various types of milk. The food looked good but we only had coffee. They also have a dog friendly patio for your furry friends!

  • 5/5 BettyJo C. 6 months ago on Google
    Ordered a matcha tea and a turkey & cheese croissant and both tasted great and were well priced! It’s clean, there is outdoor and indoor seating, and a small parking lot and street parking available.

  • 5/5 Daniela 6 months ago on Google
    My boyfriend showed me this place! It’s a hidden gem! Not only do they have a good healthy menu but the coffee is so goood! It’s our go to in Houston for fresh coffee. Located in a great area and the outdoor patio is our favorite. We ordered the fresh seasonal juice which was amazing. They recently added some new items on the menu the avocado bagel is always great and today we had the French toast which was out of this world. Great place!

    Just dropped by Active Passion for a caffeine fix, and I’ve got to say, the coffee here is absolutely fantastic! 👌☕ The service was spot on, too – friendly baristas who know their craft and make you feel right at home. Now, let’s talk about the vibe. Active Passion has a cool atmosphere, but there’s one little hiccup - it’s a bit chilly inside. So, if you’re planning to hang out for a while, bring a sweater or enjoy a hot drink to warm up. Oh, and about those benches - they’re not the comfiest. If you’re planning to work or chat with friends for an extended period, you might just opt for one of the cozier chairs. The bench seats are so high! But hey, the coffee and service more than make up for these minor issues. I’ll definitely be back for my caffeine fix! 😄☕👍

    The place looks so cool from the outside that you want to stop in. It's all custom, high-end "healthy" coffees and teas. No alcohol as an FYI. I'll gladly pay $5-9 for an iced tea if I'm going to hang out there with friends. But I'd never say to myself, "I'm craving that tea I had at Active Passion right now."

  • 5/5 Willie R. 7 months ago on Google
    Only thing I wish is that they had bigger sizes for their iced coffee. Other than that, it’s all around great place for some coffee and a heck of a blue berry coffee cake!

  • 5/5 Czarina A. 2 years ago on Google
    Cute and vibrant cafe in the woodland heights. I'm lucky I can walk to it :) The brownie zucchini bread is divine and so chocholaty. Also, some of my favorite cafe snacks are the the egg and bacon croissant and the spinach and mushroom croissant, which are delectable. The latte's are always presented with a beautiful design at the top, made with such attention to detail. Enjoy them in the cafe or to go. It is peaceful enough to get work done or sit and enjoy the art and fun colors inside. The staff is exceptionally kind. Love the comforting vibes of this place. Thanks for being there Active Passion!

    Great local place with friendly folks and tasty coffee. Was glad to have them open right next door to me. Great place to pop into for a morning coffee. Haven’t taken part in any of their bike rides or runs yet, but some of their other community events have been fun. Cool place that makes a positive contribution to the neighborhood. Highly recommend.

  • 5/5 Claude Van C. 1 year ago on Google
    My first time there and was very impressed. Not only was the caramel latte perfect but the moroccan chicken salad was delicious! The people that worked there are very friendly. Francesca was so nice and Josie took time to chat with us about the coffee and roasting the beans. The owner was so nice and gave us cookies. Everybody was so personable. We will definitely be back.

  • 5/5 Hernan F. 1 year ago on Google
    Coffe was great here. They have alot of pastries as well. And some lunch. Interior is very clean and modern but just not my vibe. That's a personal preference but again the coffe was great. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating available. Also decently priced

  • 5/5 Heli K. 2 years ago on Google
    I’ve found this place by a chance and boy am I lucky! Super yummy and fresh pastries and high quality coffee. The staff were friendly and the place is very clean

  • 5/5 Brittany (Britt Off The B. 1 year ago on Google
    I can’t lie. They make a pretty dang good almond milk flat white. Smooth and creamy. I didn’t test the Wi-Fi speed but it worked pretty well for my little writing and research session. I wish cleaning was more diligent. When I came in a few tables were dirty. Also wish they greeted and bid farewell. I tend to appreciate those little things in a small cafe. There’s a fair amount of parking available but it filled up pretty quickly around noon. This place got busy on a Saturday afternoon, but the vibes were easy. I’d definitely be back!

  • 5/5 Ina B. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolutely incredible! Little gem hidden in the Heights. Found it by accident on my way home from the gym. The Food tastes very fresh and is made with high quality ingredients. I enjoyed an Oat Milk Latte, a Croissant with Moroccan Chicken Salad , as well as a Strawberry Tart. I especially enjoyed the Tart, as it was not too sweet, but rather extremely refreshing and light. I highly recommend this spot, especially after a workout, or for a light breakfast or lunch.

  • 5/5 Conrad P. 1 year ago on Google
    This place is full of personality! It's got a bit of room to work and an outside patio for larger parties. Grab a sticker and consider asking about their bike kits!

  • 5/5 Joel Ramos R. 1 year ago on Google
    Best made coffee and mock-tails in the Houston area. The owner (Linda) is welcoming and super friendly. The shop is well located away from the main streets and the atmosphere is very relaxing. Their passion fruit mock-tails will NOT disappoint!
