There are more coffee shops than I can keep track of. I think thatās true anywhere, but it seems even truer in the Houston area and surrounding suburbs. I like when I can find something different from the usual chain store operations and one I have visited and liked is Long Coffee in Katy.
Looking at the menu at Long Coffee, one will find iced coffee drinks, hot coffee drinks, hot and cold tea drinks, frozen drinks, etc. If you feel like a snack, they serve a few different pastries. If your appetite is a little stronger, you can get a ham and cheese croissant, fettucine alfredo, butterfly shrimp, popcorn chicken, and other similar options.
One thing that is a little different here is the number of hot coffee drinks. Long Coffee has more choices than other coffee shops, most of which tend to stick with cold drinks. If Iām going for a hot drink, the salted coffee latte is a favorite. The hot jasmine green tea is nice as well. If I want something cold- and sweet- the frozen cookies and cream is a good choice.
Long Coffee is ordinary on the interior. You will find tables and chairs for groups, plus the usual upholstered chairs for greater comfort, perfect for eating, drinking, and one- on- one conversation. If the weather is right, sitting outdoors on the front patio is a good option. Again, nothing exceptional in terms of atmosphere, but certainly comfortable.
I love a good coffee shop and Long Coffee in Katy is a good option for those who have grown tired of the better- known chain coffee shops and want something different. The drinks, the food, and the service are all enough to satisfy and keep you...

The entrance: Located off Westgreen in Katy, TX in a newly built shopping center. Located on the end cap. Bonus - they have a drive-thru. The patio is really big and semi covered. Outdoor music (today's hits playlist)
The first vibe: Was not expecting it to be so big inside. Tall ceilings, spacious, and a long community table with more 4-top tables lining the wall. Spacious bar and pastry display area.
Time 2 table: We order 2 coffees and 2 pastries - about 5 minutes
The menu: Coffee, pastries, tea milk, and lunch snack items (popcorn chicken being one of them)
The server: Our coffee barista/cashier was really nice. He helped us through the menu, & made suggestions
The drinks: Tasty and strong. We got the Vietnamese coffee and the caramel macchiato
The food: The cheese danishes were really tasty. It had this really nice glaze all over the top of the cheese danish and then a thick creamy middle.
The dessert: Lots of choices in the display case
The management: Did not see or interact with a manager to my knowledge
The cleanliness: Very! Inside and patio area.
This is a 2nd location for them. Original location is on Bellaire. Welcome to Katy!

Best coffee place in Katy or Houston, and I've tried every single coffee place I see, I was grinding my own starbucks beans and making my own coffee but the last 3 days in a row I've had the *frozen mocha coffee" here, it is great!! Strong and not too much ice. Perfect amount of chocolate flavor. An absolutely amazing treat, and it is satisfying, and only costs 5.00exactly, with tax, with no whipped cream(whipped cream is 54 cents more and is not bad but I don't need it). They have two lid situations, sealed like boba where you stick the HUGE straw through, and the normal dome-lid like Starbucks, wayyyyyy better than Starbucks, Starbucks is like water and weak coffee with too much ice, this place is amazing. Try it, you will regret not having it sooner. Would give it more stars if at all possible, seriously great drinks. My kids also tried the "strawberry banana" which I thought was pretty good but they were not big on, they are little kids though, this...
