Only 1 hour of wifi per purchase

Prabhakaran T P14.02.2025

This is a quaint coffee place in the museum district. Cappuccino and peanut butter cookies were awesome. One can work from here or have meetings too.

Orson Terrill14.02.2025

A place where people are usually working on stuff. Never loud. Textbooks and laptops. Good locale, parking is scarce.

J.J. Sanchez14.02.2025

One of my favorite places to grab a coffee and get some work done on my laptop. The coffee is high quality The service is great and the atmosphere is perfect for studying. Lots of food offerings in a refrigerator. Make sure you save your receipt for a code to the Wi-Fi.

A great place for digital nomad to work. Plenty of outlets, free wifi, lots of cozy seats. A lot of people are there to work. The staff isn’t the nicest, but not rude. Chai latte is a bit too sweet. But I enjoyed working there!
很可愛的小咖啡廳,有很多插座,還有免費wifi,大多數人都是去工作或看書畫畫的!員工不是太親切,但也不會太兇,chai latte有點太甜!但在那裡工作滿舒服的,音樂也okay

Partha Sudarsanam14.02.2025

Nice place to get coffee and work out of. I like the ambience

Viviana Paz14.02.2025

Prices are affordable and well-done coffee.
My only concern is the light quality if you want to go to work on your laptop. It's my suggestion.

K. M. Ochoa14.02.2025

Cashier is rude. Coffee is pretty okay, but expensive. The music is terrible. Quite cold. Small uncomfortable tables. Just saying, if you wanna post up or need to use a laptop & a notebook and have coffee, it will be uncomfortable and pricey. Bring sound cancelling headphones.

Aliyha Hill14.02.2025

Came to work for the morning. Truly appreciate a coffee shop with a food menu (not just pastries)

Shanice Battle14.02.2025

Decent place to work. Had some issues with wifi. Coffee was good, plenty of parking

Abdullah Alsulieman14.02.2025

The wifi is only valid for 30 minutes.

Heather Lo14.02.2025

wifi limit 1 hr with receipt

Benjamin Musall14.02.2025

You have to buy something and renew your wifi every hour... Terrible deal.

This place used to be great. One purchase, stay as long as you need.

Arene Last14.02.2025

AWFUL FOR STUDENTS — wifi is one hour per drink, and didnt even work. in attempting to obtain it, you HAVE to agree to receive promotional emails. service and food very mediocre. weird vibes.

Jessica Sherman14.02.2025

The staff was friendly and the coffee was decent. The atmosphere was a bit "boring" for lack of a better word.
If you need a place to do homework/work then this may be it. If you are out to have a convo with a friend I would choose a different place because it's so quiet, everyone can hear your convo.

Tannaz Harati14.02.2025

Definitely is a place if you want to study or work.

Nicole W. Account14.02.2025

The 1-2 hour wifi is why I won’t come back. Happy to sit and buy 3-4 drinks (coffees and teas) as I normally do when working at a coffee shop for a few hours, but the 1 hour wifi rubbed me the wrong way. Disclaimer: I could connect to Xfinity’s hot spot through my internet provider without interruption. But the thought of everyone else trying to get work done and micro manage incremental wifi is wild to me.

Lucas Atayde14.02.2025

wifi is super restricted. Major websites, like YouTube, are blocked and customers are limited to 1 hour of internet per purchase. In addition, you have to provide your email to connect, which subscribes you to Black Hole newsletters and ads.

Tables are also pretty small. Not ideal for studying :(

Jessica Young14.02.2025

***NOT FOR studyING / MEETINGS / COMPUTER work IF YOU NEED TO USE THEIR wifi***

I came here as it’s a coffee house and it has great reviews for studying and remote workers, but I’m very disappointed that it’s only an hour at a time on the wifi per purchase. It’s unfortunate because class starts online in less than an hour and due to traffic, it’ll take me an hour to go across town to my usual spot.

I won’t be coming back. As a disclaimer, I spend when I patronize a business as I’m not there to just suck up the wifi and take up seats for other paying customers.

Otherwise, nice layout and spacious and great prices.

Joshua Davis14.02.2025

Only an hour of wifi given to us when we are the only ones there. Crazy experience from a coffee shop right next to Rice U. Food and coffee was also mid.

Shawn A14.02.2025

Extremely rude staff. Guy at the front asked me if I knew how to read because I had the audacity to ask him for the wifi password. You also only get wifi for ONE HOUR after purchases. Save your time and go somewhere else.
