La Casita Coffee

I had the exceptional opportunity to try the brand new dinner menu tonight. It was out of this world! The crew here really stepped it up. The Elote and fish taco were not only mouthwatering good, but also an experience in itself. From the fun plating to the top notch service, La Casita coffee leaves me wanting nothing but more of their company, food, and drink. The crew here seriously is outstanding - especially the night crew. They put so much thought and consideration into making my day, in the little ways. It's so charming. They each radiate kindness and cultivate an environment that people cant help but connect within and among. We need more places that serve with the intention and level la casita does.

Hate to say it but I was kinda disappointed. The service wasn't the greatest, felt awkward asking for help at the counter. My chocolate croissant came cold and I asked to reheat it - very kindly they replaced it and said they'd bring it out to our table bc we were in the book store. They didn't and apparently called out and said oh it's gonna be cold again bc you didn't come grab it...Sad! Coffee was too syrup-y and croissant barely had chocolate in it.Regards,

Shut the front door - La Casita is OUTSTANDING we have been to their Richardson location and were so excited to see them open inside of Half Price Books.The renovated space is delightful. The food options were inventive and tasty. Love the drink options as well, not JUST coffee. Can't wait until they open the patio and serve dinner as will definitely be there.

La Casita traditional menu included a Turkish latte. It was so spicy smooth and delicious. The flavors were not over powering. The team is proficient with answering questions and getting my order correct. I wish they had low fat or non fat dairy options. Alternate non dairy milks are available. Wait until you see the to-go cup for hot drinks!! It's like an adult sippee cup!

I had been wanting to try La Casita ever since I heard they opened a location in the flagship Half Price Books. I got the ham & cheese croissant, a seasonal pear-shaped pastry (don't remember the name or ingredients), and a Turkish latte with rice milk. Everything was good but my expectations were high. The Turkish latte was delicious with a good balance of holiday spices. I had never tried rice milk before; it seemed to make a decent latte. The ham & cheese croissant was good but not very filling or remarkable. The seasonal pear-shaped pastry was interesting looking. I began eating it from the outside in but it was too dry and cakey. I quickly realized you have to eat the inner filling with the outer cake for it to really be edible. I liked it after I figured that out but I still didn't think it was amazing.Overall, I really enjoyed La Casita but it didn't quite meet my high expectations given its reputation, and I didn't feel like I quite got my money's worth. Nevertheless, I look forward to trying some of their other coffee drinks and pastries in the future.For those of you looking for a good place to study or work, there were a lot of parents with young kids running around and screaming around the cafe and Half Price Books, at least on the weekend.

Live nearby Half Price Books and was so excited to see that La Casita was opening a location there! I've been a few times now, and each time the folks working have been super friendly and ready to talk you through the menu. The seasonal syrups are really great, and I appreciate that they use paper cups, limiting single use plastic! However, the paper cups don't hold coffee quite as well as plastic, and I found them to be a bit prone to spilling (especially on the go!). Bc of this I brought a clean travel cup and they were kind enough to fill that for me instead. The shop is adorable with lots of seating, WiFi, and some outlets. Drinks can take a while when the shop is busy, so don't come in a rush, but they're worth the wait!

I ordered chilaquiles with pork. I wasn't aware that it was $15 plus $4 for the pork. You're telling $15 was just for chips, beans, avocado and two eggs, pricey. I'm aware inflation is high but not this high. Idk if I would be back. I was also under the impression that it was a coffee shop but it was more like a restaurant with a coffee bar.

Edit: to dine in, please see the host station. In restaurant seating is limited. Staff works quickly and efficiently to turn tables over. Also, there's plenty of seating just outside the venue and / or outside, when the weather is right. Love the Richardson location. Came back to try breakfast here. Sourdough had the perfectly crusted edges. Whipped butter and jam provided. Minimum 2 eggs per side order. I added a little hot sauce. We were in business! This made for the perfect egg sandwich. Only one star off as the water flavor has been off lately. Note the hours of operation. Enjoy!

We came in with Ziggy our care dog and asked if it was we okay and the nice manager let us if it would be okay for us to come in and her agreed! The service and coffee were excellent. We will be back!!

I love las casita! I was skeptical about tying it at first because I thought it would be like any other texmex brunch spot, but they prove same wrong! La casita has such delicious food and drinks, must go!!
