Stopped in after lunch for coffee and snack. Great coffee and food! Outstanding customer service individually and as a team behind the counter. The Lady in glasses with U of H themed hair was extremely knowledgeable, efficient and friendly! Definitely recommend this place to chill and refresh, I will be returning soon!

Excellent coffee! Extremely nice service. If you’re after a quality coffee shop, look no further.

I am a coffee roaster and my test of a truly great coffee shop is their plain espresso without anything added. Their espresso is by far the tastiest espresso I have ever had in any coffee shop, including my own. The lowest acidity with almost no bitter after taste. I’m impressed.
And the food is great, and the atmosphere is gorgeous and peaceful!

Pros: Nice light space, good chairs, nice ambiance.
Cons: Non-caffinated drinks are expensive and extremely. The first drink I received was at best lukewarm. When I brought it up more than half full they apologized but still charged me for a replacement. I should have left then but instead paid $5+ with tip for around 10oz of over-brewed until nearly undrinkable herbal tea. It know it’s a coffee shop but hot water and a tea bag shouldn’t be hard.
Despite the nice atmosphere I doubt I will be back with this service.

From my personal experience, if I go to a coffee shop and being charged $5 for latte, they usually would fill up with milk if asked for light ice.
I’m disappointed with today’s service…
I really like their beans so I purchased coffee beans from Cleo before but this is my first time buying coffee from Cavo, probably my last time..

Nice, clean coffee shop near West U and Upper Kirby. I stopped here to do some work after helping with an event at Rice.
The coffee shop is right on Bissonnett with a small parking lot attached, but it wasn’t an issue on the Thursday afternoon I visited. The inside is pretty with lots of plants as decorations, but on the small-medium size range of shops. There’s a large barstool type table on the right with ~4 booths on the right and 3-4 tables on the left with another smaller barstool table against the wall. I think I saw 2-3 places to plug in so maybe come charged if you’re planning to work.
I had my usual plain Iced Vanilla Latte and it was good. A nice refresher during this summer heat. The workers were friendly and the ambiance was nice and chill.

The bartender was sweet and informative, as it was my first time there. He did not make me feel weird about being there. That's a big plus for me!!! I am an avid coffee lover and the fawn Expresso beans were absolute heaven when grounded and the taste was phenomenal with no rot gut or bitter,ashen overtones and aftertaste. I will definitely come back!!!!

We got an ice caramel latte and brewed coffee. Both were great! Staff was friendly. Atmosphere is nice! Masks are encouraged

Nice atmosphere. Easy parking along the side of the building. No outdoor seating. Drinks are decent with some interesting seasonal specials such as a Tennessee latte. A bit on the pricey side. The food options are ok but would be nice to have 2-3 vegan & gluten free options which are clearly denoted. Overall like the concept but looking forward to see how it evolves.
