The Addiction — Restaurant in Aransas Pass

I found this little gem during a recent visit to Rockport and I was pleasantly surprised by the smooth, tasty coffee creations. It was close to closing time, yet the choice-of-the-day was hot and fresh and not bitter at all, which is usually the case in most daily specials. The menu offers all standard coffee choices and flavorings, and some muffins too. Being a tiny drive thru, I was pleased to find a table for four as well as two comfortable, overstuffed chairs for customers outside.

The light hearted atmosphere shows in their customer loyalty card as well as in the witty coffee sayings that pepper the outside of their shack.

Was in town for a funeral and wanted to drop in here as it was a well reviewed coffee spot and on our way. We had 3 people in our car and while we all got what we ordered, none of us enjoyed the coffee.

Your results may vary, this is just a warning to those who might look and see all these positive reviews, not realizing what you're getting in to is more like a morning milkshake...

Having moved to Texas from the Seattle area, I was sorely missing a neighborhood coffee stand.

The staff is friendly even if many are still learning and they want to make sure that you enjoy your coffee. The lot is small so if there is a queue, it can be a bit tricky to pull in so sometimes it's better to park next door and walk over. My one complaint is that the roast they have selected for their espresso is very light. I much prefer my espresso to have a very dark roast (full city plus or above, Vienna roast preferably) and I think they are using a city plus or full city...
