Found this place by accident because I was looking for a coffee shop around the animal shelter I needed to go to one afternoon. I got the secret squirrel which was delicious, not too sweet. It's such a nice and relaxing environment and I wish I lived in the area because I would absolutely frequent this place if I could. Employees were friendly. Lots of seating space. I also love their purpose towards providing more education on human trafficking - this was my sorority's philanthropy in college so it hits close.

ordered an iced latte, american, breakfast sandwich & a pastry. It was great quality items. The cashier was very rude. Definitely shocking to have that kind of attitude in an establishment like this. i was happy to find a business that has a purpose. im a coffee shop lover and was hoping this would become my go-to. Coffee & food were great, I recommend ( maybe order ahead/online if thats an option to avoid rude interactions)

2nd cup is right alright, you can't drink just 1 latte.... the secret squirrel latte is my heaven in a cup here. Im not too keen on the name (in a bronx accent). "Come on! i got grey hair here for crying out loud!" Ok ok I will swallow my pride and mumble "let me have the secret squirrel latte please" thank you Melissa bring your own cup and save the planet.

I had the squirrel something latte. In fact, all of us ordered the same thing lol but we all made the right choice. It had hazelnut and amaretto and was DELICIOUS! Not too sweet either. Spacious and comfortable. Relaxing vibe.

This coffee shop has been on bookmark list and happy I I finally made it in. It's very big for a coffee shop with lots of tables. I should have asked if they have wifi available. As I walked in I was greeted and asked how my morning was going, but not in a automatic way. It was in a genuine way that felt nice. After looking over the menu I picked the Secret Squirrel coffee that was really good. It was a mild smooth coffee. My only complaint is that there is only a standard size available. I couldn't turn down a fresh croissant and I'm so happy I got one. It was fluffy and light with a a nice outer crust. I'll be coming back for sure to try other drinks and their lunch items that sound good.

I love a place with a GOOD cause! I've been here at least 5 times now, and every time, I love the atmosphere and drinks/food. Pricing is wonderful/reasonable... I order the iced latte and breakfast sandwich with sausage. Man, the biscuits are HEAVEN. It definitely isn't your Jimmy Dean's breakfast sandwich, it's 10x better with homemade jam.Next time I go, I want to get their merch. They have lovely smelling candles and cute cards!

Stopped by for coffee and wanted to get the avocado toast. Unfortunately they don't have the kitchen up and running yet (as of 10/16/23) so we couldn't order from the food menu. Just bakery items available. I still got a small mocha latte with oat milk and it was really good! Sweet enough without adding more sugar. I didn't try any bakery items but they looked really good! The service was polite and timely. Inside has tons of information and resources regarding human trafficking and I enjoy that getting coffee here helps a good cause. There's also a cute little shop of ethically sourced home items in the shop which is very cool. The decor and vibes are comfy and spacious. Parking is limited, maybe like 5/6 spots right out front. I'd like to come back again when the kitchen is up and running!

I definitely support this store's mission, so having to give it a poor review isn't the most comfortable thing, but I didn't have a great visit. Three issues:First, the americano I ordered was initially prepared poorly, being lukewarm, overly full (i.e. I couldn't remove the lid without creating a mess), and weak (possibly under-extracted, and/or possibly over-diluted). After a few sips, I asked for it to be remade; the second one was much better, though still not one of the better americanos I've had in Houston.Then I got a croissant, and it was waaaay too buttery. I know that for many people there's no such thing as "too buttery", but one's hands really shouldn't be slick with grease after eating a croissant.Third, a half hour into my visit, and about an hour before closing, they started cleaning the floors with a detergent that I found chemically offensive (I have asthma, so am super conscious about such things). At this point, I couldn't stay.All of that out of the way, I will acknowledge that the service I received was warm and friendly, the space itself is welcoming, and the free infused water is a nice touch.I'll return with the hope of a better experience.

Off the beaten path coffee shop that doesn't seem to get very busy because ppl don't know about it which surprises me because I would totally come here again. It hit most of the check boxes you want for a coffee shop :Great coffee (yummy sf vanilla decaf almond milk latte)Great food (veggie egg taco & egg biscuit; my friends got the pizza, avocado toast and bkfast sandwich and no complaints)Numerous outletsLots of seating (unique to have seating on the ground with soft cushions to sit on)Friendly staff and quick serviceParking availableGood lightingSoft musicThe only downfall was it got pretty warm so dress accordingly and maybe get an iced coffee. It won't stop me from going again and I would still recommend to others.

I was visiting my family and wandered into the local shop in the neighborhood. I love a good cup of coffee but love the mission of this place: a non-profit cause to end human trafficking! Hell yes, you have my support! The staff is attentive and friendly. I went in the mid-morning hours so the shop was not packed. The parking lot is small though so I had to park on the street and walk in. I picked up my coffee to go but wished I had longer to stay. It's a great space for working ( as a few were) or catching up with friends over a cup of coffee. The coffee was great too! I got the Sweet Toff and it was delicious. I'll be sure to stop in again next time I am in town.
