Minuti Coffee — Restaurant in Houston

All in all, it's a decent spot. The atmosphere is a dim lit affair, so if that's your thing, which I like that as an option myself, maybe also it might be the right lighting for a date night, if you'd do a date night at a coffee house, it could happen. When I went up to look at the menu, I saw two different promos for some deals they had going. Even that being said, it wasn't outrageous with the prices but it was starting off at around $4 for the cheapest option, that I saw at least. And yeah, I love Starbucks, and Starbucks can be a little pricey, but that's my spot and the thing is you can actually get something for cheaper than $4 at Starbucks. Alot of people may not know that, but it's true. So once again, being an actual coffee house; versus, say; you getting a coffee from a place that just happens to have it as an extra item on their menu (although some of those places are good though), you would expect to pay accordingly, so Like saying is depending on what you planned on drinking on your coffee trip, you may end up paying more than a trip to Starbucks. Definitely. So from that angle, of course, it wouldn't be the top of my list for a coffee house to go to to drink, unless we're talking world class, world renowned stuff here, which it ain't, it's not on that level, just being honest, so that being said Starbucks is enough for me, from that angle (price). But that's just me, money ain't a thing for some, and if you happen to have it like that then it would be a nice little diversion in that case, another option, with different faces, some decent light atmosphere going, the coffee isn't nasty or anything, and an alright staff, they were friendly. So maybe you might add it to your coffee shop spots list as an alternate option one day. That's my two cents and I'm...

I used to really like this place,because staffs were really friendly and the atmosphere was really good. I haven't come here for a while. However, today after I came here I realized this place has changed. First, when I tried to order a cup of tea, the cashier girl seem like not happy, she didn't say a word to me or even didn't tell me the price. We didn''t have anything conversation, she just started to make the tea with a "poker face" right after I told her I want to have a cup of tea, so I was really awkward holding my credit card and waiting for her make the tea. Second, the bathroom has locked, because it's only open for people who spend money here, I have to ask the staff's help to open the bathroom's door. I didn't notice there has a sign says "ask for assistant" in the first, so I tried twice to open the door, however it was not opened until I saw the sign, it made me feel awkward standing there waiting for the permission to go to the bathroom. However , I am not the only person who have this awkward situation this afternoon, I stayed at this coffee house for almost one hour and during this time I saw at least two people tried to open the bathroom door but failed and they were awkward standing there. Third, I was expecting a clean bathroom since they locked it ,however Inside the bathroom was really nasty, used toilet paper was laying on the floor and Inside the toilet, after I washed my hands I found the paper machine was run out of paper towel, I had to use toilet paper...

I agree that the coffee is not good ; it is unusually light/ watery in taste. Also, every time I ask for them to warm up my pastry, it comes out cold. I dont know if they are saving up on electricity and on coffee beans, but between watery coffee and cold and not really tasty patries, I am unimpressed with their food. As for the atmosphere, some of the staff think your personal life comes in exchange for ordering and studying at their shop. I had one staff at another branch watch my every move and would come to me at calculated time to try to strike conversations just. At first, I thought he would see that I wasnt interested in being social (but some times I did engage since I noticed these interactions were important to him). I like to warm up to people who push themselves on me or people who are overly friendly, the minute they see me; I feel they are acting friendly for their convenience. Anyway, at the 2 shops I have been to, I have noticed the young staff instigating dagger stares by motioning other young customers , (most likely friends they contacted through social network.... it so obvious that they were called; the minute their friends come; they look my way with dagger stares (ooh I am scared, they gonna beat me up if I dont pretend to their friends) ; probably simple moves they used to pull back in high school). A lot of that nonsense is by their younger male staff. Making up for not being cool back in their school...
