MOTW Coffee and Pastries

Kimberly Sypert 2 months ago

I went a little out of my way to find an independent coffee shop, and I’m so glad I did. The space struck the perfect balance of low light and cozy, but still filled with beautiful natural light. There were plenty of seating options both inside and out, making it easy to settle in and stay awhile. The employee I interacted with was genuinely friendly, which always makes a difference. I ordered the Yemeni chai, and wow (rich, sweet, creamy, and absolutely worth it). I paired it with a pistachio baklava, which was the perfect finishing touch. Bonus points for the background music: just the right volume to create a relaxing atmosphere without interrupting my reading time (a rare and appreciated skill in the coffee world). Definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to.

Excellent coffee and baked goods. Their espresso-based drinks, including lattes, were a real brain booster — strong, smooth, and well balanced. The quiche was rich, dense, and nicely egg-forward. They also offer a great variety of baklava and a unique selection of halal empanadas. They also offer event bookings for groups, making it a great spot for small gatherings and meetups.

Nothing in Texas can beat the Yemeni chai here. I think I filled up multiple punch cards in only a couple months because of this chai. And they will give you your drink in a real mug if you ask. They also have chocolate tres leches, something I thought only existed in my imagination! I didn’t have time to try all the amazing pastries, but everything I got was delightful. The owners, Arshad and Shaila, are so kind and the atmosphere is the most pleasant. Great for getting coffee with a friend or staying to work or study for hours.

This place is beautiful! The coffee is so good! They offer sugar free syrups and alternate milk options! The food looks amazing! I can’t wait to try the pastries and get more coffee! I will definitely be back!

Love the atmosphere and customer service at this coffee shop. Vanilla latte is delicious. Chai tea is a bit more bitter than what I’m used to. Coconut latte wasn’t it for me. I went late on a Sunday so the only pastry available was the red velvet cupcake, also delicious and not too sweet. There are some table games available if you’re looking to just hang out, ample outdoor seating.
