I'm a city bike rider, it was my first time in this neighborhood in 30+ years in Houston. Learned a few things, they're cashless. I couldn't taste the food cuz I only had cash on me. Since the barista had already served my cup, one his recommendations on grains, he allowed me to keep and enjoy the coffee cup for free. I felt double embarrassed, he wouldn't take my money and then he said he couldn't give me the peanut "better" 🍪 I had also ordered with my coffee. I will definitely come back for that cookie and I'll bring a 💳 ☝️😂😎

DEFINITELY A "MUST GO" IF YOU ARE IN HOUSTON! This review is based on my experience and personal opinion: I am a regular of the Antidote Café, very nice place indeed. I decided to wait for the Covid-19 pandemic to sort of go away to write a review about them, so that I would be able to be fair and more accurate. Like I said we are regulars of this small but lovely café situated in the Houston heights district, when I'm in town we go at least twice a week. We absolutely LOVE their Latte and their Chai Latte.... This is NO fancy place by no means.... It is a very simple place, with few pieces of furniture and the furniture are sort of worn/old furniture. It is randomly furnished, no specific style but I find this place sort of whimsical and very relaxing. Very friendly, Very Comfy, Very Relaxing, Very.... forget about your problems for a few.... If you look at the pictures you can see they have two main sitting areas, one is inside and one is outside. the sitting area inside has two big comfy couches among other furniture and a long bench against the wall if you like that kind of seat. so whether you are alone or with friends you can still find your place here. Outside they have quite a few small tables where you two people can have a remarkable breakfast. so, whether you come in the morning, afternoon or evening, you can select the best seat for your needs. When it's chilly or rainy, you can seat inside and disappear in those soft couches.... I love that. Sitting on a soft couch while holding a hot Chai Latte....mmmm.... paradise to me. They have a selection of Coffee based drinks, hot or iced, and If you do not drink Milk you can select Almond, Oatmeal, Soy or Coconut Milk (great substitutes). Also they have a selection of pastries/deserts available and some seriously delicious Oatmeal + raisins cookies (so Yummy). Now you can find more products available for sale, like Coffee beans, ground Coffee mix, and many other products. They have restrooms and they are alw

Honestly the best latte in town hands down. This place has a cool unique vibe to it & we’ve loved walking there on afternoons to get a latte & a gingersnap cookie. Those cookies are also so good.

Vibe- another cozy coffee shop in the greater heights area! There’s so many colorful little patio tables outside and a good amount of seating inside as well. This is the sister coffee shop to Black Hole Coffee House in Montrose. Customer service- Amazing! The barista that helped me was kind. Food/drinks- I got a hot pumpkin spice latte with oatmilk and it’s one of the best I’ve had at any coffee shop!! Parking- There’s about 15 or so parking spots in the lot and some parking on the street.

The barista was awesome and very helpful with great recommendations. She informed us she was very confident in her ability and she was not wrong. We loved her. She also recommended getting the ginger cookie and that was also a great recommendation. But if your friends tell you they don't want a cookie, get 2. I luckily tore my cookie in half before letting them try it because I never say it again. Ha ha. We will definitely be back when in the area.

Great local spot. The coffee is strong and smooth, and the vibe is perfect for working or relaxing. Baristas are friendly but not overbearing, and the pastries are always fresh. One of my go-to cafes in the area.

Atmosphere, customer service, vibes, and everything were incredibly enjoyable. Highly recommend. There's not a ton of parking spots, but if there's a spot for you in the coffee shop, it's well worth it to post up in here for a bit and enjoy the experience of chilling in this place.
