Poor service with waitress with very bad attitude...food and beverage order was messed up...hot coffee brought when iced coffee ordered, forgot added side of grilled chicken to breakfast bowl, added poached eggs on the avocado smash came out cold, hot chocolate ordered never made it at all, toddlers sprinkle toast brought out last...I could go on and on! Way over-priced for messed up nothing special food!Will NEVER return!

Took my boyfriend here for his birthday breakfast and we had a pretty good experience. We were greeted upon arrival and seated immediately. The waitress also came pretty quick to check on us and take our coffee orders. I got the iced vanilla latte and my boyfriend got the long black coffee. My latte was AMAZING--one of the best latte's I have had. I would definitely come back here for the coffee. My boyfriend enjoyed his as well. We came on a sunny morning, so it was very bright in the cafe, due to the multiple open windows. I loved the ambiance and the cheerful environment. Moving on to the food, I got the brekkie board, which comes with half portions of the avocado smash and the collective granola. I added spicy grilled chicken to my avocado smash for an extra $4, and the chicken was incredibly rubbery. The potential was there because the avocado smash itself was very good. However, the rubbery chicken kind of ruined the taste, but I am willing to try it again due to the yummy spice. If it is rubbery when I return, I will probably be lowering my rating, but I'm hoping it was a one-time thing. The granola was very good, but funnily had too much granola for my taste. I like an equal blend of granola, yogurt/cream, and fruit, but this was very heavy on the bottom portion of the dry granola. My boyfriend got the BL burrito and said it was okay, but nothing spectacular. Overall, I think this is a fun, quick place to grab breakfast, but not something I'm going to have cravings for. The coffee is the star here, and the food is not bad (though not worth how much they charge, in my opinion). We will be back soon to try it out again, and will be updating this review.

Experience was totally ruined by rude and totally detached waitress. The hostess was very nice and helping out, but the actual waitress had an unbearablely bad attitude. Food was ok, somewhat bland, but not terrible, other than the bacon which is actually better at any Hampton Inn.

Oh this was so good.... Actually this was great. I had the avocado scramble with the vanilla protein shake. The protein shake was top 2. I added chicken to my scramble. Everything was so fresh I truly appreciated this meal. There was free two hour parking in the garage as well. Service was amazing. I would recommend as I will be returning to try more items on the menu. My one con is for outdoor dining. The have tables outside that do not appear to be sanitized. They leave cups rim down on the tables with no coasts or place mar or any sort. I'm usually a water drinker but seeing those cups like that. Water from those cups were the last thing on my mind.

Good spot for brunch- Tasty food (especially the potato wedges) and servers were super kind and willing to make substitutions. I wouldn't be comfortable going here to study or work though. I went at a time when it wasn't super busy, and there were a few people around me on their laptops. However, because all the tables are waited, I would be uncomfortable about wasting their time. Also, during lunch and breakfast rushes, the tables would turn around super quickly and you would be taking a spot. Otherwise, it's a good spot for food and conversation.

Bluestone Lane is an NYC-based Australian café chain founded by an ex-footballer that has now expanded to include three outposts in the Houston metroplex. The aesthetic both outside and inside is trendy and coastal, with lots of tile and white-and-blue accents. The Rice Village location has a tiny patio with some small tables and umbrellas for shade. Service was great. The coffee was quite tasty, though I must say that my flat white (the modern version of which apparently originated in Australia) was very sugary so don't be afraid to adjust the specs if needed. The menu is health food-focused and vegetarian-friendly, while also being very reasonably priced for the area. The Impossible Bayside Burger was very juicy, paired with gooey cheddar, caramelized onions, a sweet and tangy fig jam, arugula, and nicely toasted brioche buns. If you like beef burgers, you will like this too. There were scant wedge fries on the plate, but they were crispy and fluffy and well-seasoned.An approachable but unique take on brunch/lunch that should appease all comers. Perfect spot for a caffeine fix or a quick bite pre- or mid-shopping.

Ambience is the best thing about this place--seems like a great, fairly quiet place for a weekday work meeting. Everyone on the wait staff was kind and attentive, though two mistakes were made on my order (one was very minor and the other--the wrong drink order--was quickly remedied. The food wasn't bad but it wasn't anything to write home about. Very equivalent to something I could easily throw together at home. You have to pay to park (not much, but it's a hassle) so it's not the kind of place you'd go for a quick coffee. One thing kinda annoyed me though--they made my sandwich with the ends of the loaf. I ate it and didn't say anything about it, but loaf ends aren't known for being tasty and they don't toast/warm well. Sorta struck me as either cheap or lazy. Coffee quality was so-so.Would come back for a work meeting but it won't be in my regular rotation. Staff is doing their best. The little tweaks seem to be things management could tend to. This place has a lot of potential but they aren't quite living up to it yet.

Still thinking of the lemon ricotta pancakes. Came here for brunch with my family. Quick service especially for a dine in experience. Attentive staff. Yummy food.Parking is garage parking but that is typical for that area of town. It's also free within a few hours time limit

Overall slightly over priced brunch without any special fan fare. I got the Melbourne breakfast - pretty presentation but not sure what makes this stack of pancakes any more special than regular american pancakes. My friend got the BLATE which looked pretty goodThe Aussie iced latte was delicious Service was decent it didn't take too long to find a table or get food Inside was a pretty place but aside from being instagram-able it doesn't stick out to me
