new place alert! haha.
i was looking at their menu and found how they have blended frapp and you can choose different flavors. they have lot of flavors too. really like this choice on the menu bc u dont get something like this in a reg cafe, some of the flavors, like lavender?
anyways i got the lavender blended frapp and it was rly good. one sizing of their logo cup. what sounded odd for me was how they pre-make their frapp with reg milk. and so when someone order the frapp, all they do is mix in the syrup. hmm. you cant customize it with alternative milk. he mentioned it was just a little bit of cow milk but just a heads up. i got lucky today bc he hasnt made the frapp base yet so i got it w almond milk.
aesthetics, cute, pink. they sell water and sodas on the side. sadly they didnt have essentia water but they got smart water core water all that. they also have food on the menu. id have to try it next time.
parking, street or garage.
service. it wasnt bad but wasnt good either. he was on the phone when i walked in and didnt greet me or said hi, until i looked at the menu and looked at him. i was expecting it since in houston that's a norm of "hi welcome in what can i get for you" - it's a new cafe they couldve been more welcoming - and his attitude seemed a bit sarcastic towards me, wasnt a friendly tone, honestly i cant explain. anyways they should improve on customer service!
lavender frapp was bomb btw so delicious sweet but not...
Read moreMy work stay in Houston took an unexpected turn for the delightful when my colleagues and I found this amazing coffee shop early on in our trip. It felt like pure luck stumbling upon this gem!
The true star of the shop is Daniel. His passion for coffee is infectious! He crafts a delicious latte, matcha, chai, cappuccino, cafe au lait, and anything else you could imagine. I got into the habit of just asking him to surprise me in the mornings, and he never disappointed.
Daniel's positive energy made starting my day at this coffee shop the highlight of my trip. He was so enthusiastic about their food options, especially the yogurt parfait and ALT, that we even started grabbing lunch there too.
Daniel, if you're reading this, you're a superstar! You're the Mayor of Houston in my book. And to the owner of this fantastic shop, if you're seeing this, give this man a raise! He deserves it. Trust me when I say he is earning you some...
Read moreI can honestly say that Black Water Coffee Roasters is worth the trip—and I traveled all the way from Jersey just to come back for more. The moment you walk in, you’re met with a warm, welcoming energy that sets this place apart. The staff here aren’t just baristas—they’re true coffee artists who clearly love what they do.
You can taste the care in every sip. My drink was made with such intention and warmth, it felt more like a gift than just a cup of coffee. There’s a kind of attention to detail and heart that you just don’t find everywhere, and it made the whole experience deeply memorable. It’s rare to find a place where the people and the product are both this exceptional.
If you’re anywhere nearby—or even if you’re not—Black Water Coffee Roasters is absolutely worth the trip. I already can’t wait to...
