Loved it! The manager on site was very kind and helpful, staff friendly as well. They carry Cake & Bacon pastries which are my favorite so that's already a win for me. I had the Janis Joplin crepe and OMG it was incredible. And I don't usually say OMG so there you have it. For coffee with did an iced Oat Stoopwaffle Latte and it was pleasantly cinnamon.
There is ample parking and seating. They have craft beer as well but we came before lunch time so didn't test out their beer selection.

Whenever I travel I make a point to find local/small business coffee shops and Retrospect did not disappoint! My oat milk latte was so good I drank it before I could snap a picture,but this place is a whole vibe!

Stopped here on our way out of the city and it was delicious. We got a crepe and didn’t anticipate it being the portion that it was, it was a lot! The Archie hall is so good, comes with syrup on the side. Coffee was just as good!

Very cute place with lots of aesthetically pleasing outdoor seating. Very friendly baristas. Coffee was a bit weak for my taste. I would recommend getting an extra shot if you're going with an espresso beverage, but it was still a good drink nonetheless. Will visit again for sure.

Good cafe with great outdoor seating. The outdoor patio is where people are studying/working. Ordered coffee and sweet bun which came out good.

First see the badge on the wall, then order a coffee and enjoy a nice crepe. Parking available on site. WC also presented, no WiFi thou. Crepe was good, coffee nothing special but also not bad. I had lunch there, made a selfie with a badge on the wall as a history place and moved on.

I’ve been working in this neighborhood for years but had no idea about this little gem of a coffee shop just next-door to Axelrad. I swung by on a rainy overcast morning and had, no joke, the best latte of my life. And incredible service (maybe their name was Drew?). Very friendly and very attentive. Just totally blown away that I didn’t know about this place and hope that this review makes you go. Because it’s worth it. I’ll be a mega regular.

Cool concept. A gas station converted into a coffee shop. Enormous patio with plenty of space to sit. The staff is eclectic and fun and great. This is my go-to coffee spot! The coffee is always great. If you have a soft for trashy kitties like me, you are in luck!

The best espresso I have ever had, period. I had been searching for a good espresso bar for years now, just moved to Houston and discovered this place. I was served a bright, central-american single origin coffee and it was amazing. Plus I didn't have to pay a premium for genuinely good food. Their home-made savory pastry was amazing too - and it tastes like it was scratch made. Made my day.
