Share
At Kafista, we live and breathe great coffee. We roast in small batches here in Texas, but we’re also huge fans of Houston’s growing specialty coffee scene. This city is filled with roasters and baristas who treat coffee like an art — and we love that.
Whether you’re exploring new flavors or just want the perfect place to slow down, here are three of our favorite coffee shops in Houston that inspire our passion every day.
1. Luce Coffee Roasters
If you love precision, you’ll love Luce. Every pour-over and espresso shot here reflects dedication to the craft. The minimalist design and calm atmosphere make it easy to focus on what matters most — the coffee.
Luce sources and roasts their beans with care, offering a taste experience that’s both consistent and surprising. It’s a must-visit spot for anyone who appreciates clean, balanced flavors and expert technique.
2. Tenfold Coffee
Located in the heart of the Heights, Tenfold Coffee is more than a café — it’s a community hub. Their mission is to connect people to coffee’s full story, from farm to cup.
We love their open layout, natural light, and friendly team that’s always ready to share their knowledge. Their espresso drinks are among the best in Houston, and their focus on sustainability and transparency sets them apart.
If you’re passionate about ethically sourced, beautifully prepared coffee — Tenfold should be on your list.
3. La Tazza Specialty Coffee
La Tazza is the kind of coffee shop you go to once and never forget. It’s warm, welcoming, and full of heart. Their drinks are beautifully crafted — from smooth cappuccinos to creative seasonal lattes — and the team makes you feel like family.
It’s the perfect reminder that great coffee doesn’t have to be complicated. It just needs to be made with care.
