We picked up a couple coffee drinks and a snack for the ride home at Fioza. My wife got frozen coconut mocha blended frozen thingy, tasted really good. I loved a hot cappucino and a piece of zucchini bread. Its nice to find this amazing caffeinated oasis in our neighborhood. We will be back for more.

I absolutely love this coffee shop! I started coming here years ago when I was in walking distance to study. I didn’t really care for their tapioca drinks then but the service and vibe was great! I stopped going for years because I moved away from the area. Now my son goes to school up the street and I stop in for a Dirty Chai on my days to drop him off. The staff is so nice and helpful when I want to try something new.

Great selection of breakfast items (both sandwhiches and pastries). Coffee is good and service is fast, even when making breakfast paninis from scratch. Fioza is a good addition to the neghborhood.

When Im in the area, Ill stop by for their Corn beef sandwich. Lord it is good! Its a small kitchen, a lot of items are made in-house, and things can run out, no worries, the other sandwiches are also amazing.The shops drinks are in a happy medium; not a full blown 3rd wave coffee shop or a Asian tapioca shop. They use local roasted beans, ranging from light to dark daily; they have a bit of both for everyone. Shots are pulled well, nice list of delicious flavor combinations (El delicioso nomnom), they have tapioca balls (and some jelly) and a wide arrange of smoothie/tea flavors.I see a lot of people here studying or working (must be the complimentary wifi)

During a visit to Houston, my son and I were waking up extremely early. I am so grateful to have found this place. The coffee is excellent and they have many options for non coffee drinkers. The really cool thing is the ambiance. They have a stack of games to play and my son and I got to enjoy our time together playing cards.

Review №18

Clean inside. Lots of drink choices. Not a whole lot of pastry options. Its great for artists and small businesses, as you are able to promote and sell. Parking is limited and hard to get in and out of when you do get a spot. Service is always friendly, helpful and quick. Its a great place to catch up or study.

Great drinks but kind of overpriced foods. Before the pandemic their hours were already pretty short for a cafe, and now they aren’t open past 3 PM any day of the week. I’m not sure how this place stays open with these hours but I’ll keep coming as long as they are!

They messed up the order and the smoothie came out waterly and melted. We asked for no tapioca and they put with tapioca. Rather than making a new one they scooped it out and ruined the drink. Just terrible product.

The staff are really nice and take time to help you. They play fun music and there are plenty of tables and outlets to work. They have lots of coffee, smoothie, and snack options. They have games and books available and short tables, high-tops and patio seating. They have nice restrooms. Its a good spot to work or hang out!

Ive been visiting Fioza for years. Its always the same, which is great. They make the best iced chai, and its consistently excellent. The atmosphere is chill. Always a great place for a drink and or a snack.

Review №28

This spot is one of my favorites! The coffee is great and its a good price for the amount you get. Some tables/chairs/outlets could use an upgrade or fixing but they did recently change their lower chairs. They do have Internet and outlets which is nice. Its a cozy atmosphere and never super loud if you need to study or get work done. Workers are friendly!

Ive only been to this place once and bought a croissant and some coffee there. The coffee was alright and the croissant was your basic croissant so nothing spectacular.The service was quick and fast though so I appreciated that!

Review №34

Coffee was good. Space is a little cramped, but overall good coffee shop vibes. One of the people who works there was dressed inappropriately. She was basically wearing underwear and an oversized t-shirt. It was a little uncomfortable as she was cleaning up tables around the place and her butt cheeks were hanging out. I know this is a coffee shop, but have a little standards for your employees.

Review №35

So I purchased the Cafe Nutella. Brilliantly made and tastes of the same caliber. Nothing added by myself is key to taste for me. Excellent taste and 16oz is standard versus 12oz in many other locations.Youll want to leave a tip and its proper!

Review №36

Across the street from my home.... Their smoothies and lattes are bomb good...Had to re-up on my post from 3 years ago. This place is still legit. Never bad service, cool mellow atmosphere, and the staff are awesome. Definitely recommend as a cool out spot, study, or a date.

Review №37

Good coffee stail pastry. Coffee was great but almond croissant wasnt fresh. At the time I ordered, they offered to hit it up, which I found odd at 9.15 AM. I asked if it was made today, they said yes. Once I tried it was obvious it wasnt freshly baked. I asked them again, they said yes it was made today by some downtown bakery and asked me if I want a refund. Regardless, one can expect a fresh pastry at $3.50 a piece.

Pretty neat place with a friendly cafe atmosphere. Pastries are delivered to them fresh and coffee is freshly ground for each drink. Employees are so-so but, in the end its the passion and delicious drinks that really make up. This is a great spot for a quick fix.

Review №46

Been going there since it opened, I dont care about local art, or any of the little creations you can do with foam, or the whole cafe posing thing usually associated with little cafes, i just want a good cup of coffee. This they deliver consistently and with a great variety. If the coffee of the day tastes like something you dont want to drink (not all coffee tastes the same I found out), they will gladly change it for something more to your palate and liking. The service is consistently good, and I have never had a bad experience here. The Owner and manager are extremely focused and involved on customer satisfaction, and creating a relaxing place to drink a cup and read the news or socialize. I often see people having business meetings, moms just just relaxing after dropping the kids off, and general student fare in the normal day and a general mix people people and schedules. The food varies constantly in menu, but is always excellent, and they are quite particular in the quality of food they deliver. If I was to rate them on a scale of 10, they get a 10/10. Keep up the good work!

Love the place, the have a lot of board games stacked on the book shelf. Excellent coffee, and a lovely staff. Great atmosphere for studying. They also hang art on the walls and some of it is for sale.

I remember when Fioza first opened. I was thrilled not only to have a coffee/tapioca place in the area, but one that knew what they were doing. Over the years its grown into a hot spot, and for good reason!

Review №49

Background: Ive been here several times to study and for business meetings.Feel: A small, artsy and modern coffee and tapioca bar ideal for a long day of work.Drinks/Food: The coffee and espresso are both good, but the real draws are the teas with tapioca pearls. While the drinks are the focus, the Pannini and other food options arent bad either.Service: The employees are very nice and helpful. I’d never had tea with tapioca pearls, so they let me sample before ordering. Drinks and food both come out quickly.Things to know:- There’s only one table outside, so it isnt a great place to bring dogs- All the tables are small, so it’s difficult to have a large groupOverall: Great tea, good coffee and food, and an atmosphere conducive to work and studying. Only downsides are limited outdoor seating and small tables.

Review №50

Definitely a great place to study. Music isnt loud (at least not in the morning). Nice, comfy couches for sitting or you can sit on the chairs. Ordered the Jasmine Green tea - pretty good. Id say the tapoica pearls are a little too mushy for me, but Im really particular about my tapoica.Cant wait to try the coffee one day! It looked really yummy.

Review №58

Recently raised prices, but so did everyone. Entrees (like salad) taste great, but not big enough for price, but cake slices and other baked stuff definitely is. You can tell them exactly what you want and theyll alter the drink, but make sure youre specific. Coffee is really good.Generally pretty quiet, hipster music is kind of annoying, but free good wifi and friendly staff.

As a coffee geek I can say this guys knows how to make a nice cortado and a cappuccino, very nice staff and atmosphere. As a European I am not used to the size US use for their drinks. but welll if the coffee is nice I dont mind shove 15oz of coffee when I am used to 8oz... Nevertheless their roasting is well done and the coffee is fresh.. Well done lads

Love Fioza the people are great. Cute cozy place to come study. Should not come in big groups. Perfect for reading orb working on laptops. Is popular so sometimes it gets full.I love the sanwiches and salads very tasty ☺ the coffee is okay. And they have free cups to drink water.The only thing is that you have to ask for the wifi password.

Awsome service excellent staff they should all get a pay raise, took my aunt there. We both loved it the smoothie didnt task like half water downed fruit crap like most places it was sweet the thing that I look for in a smoothie. The guys wearing a regular show t shirt really brightened my day. Would recommend to any one aND please tip at places like that most are college kids trying to fund there future.

Review №80

Their coffee is good, service is so so but their bubble tea (or tapioca tea) is terrible! The milk tea part is average but the boba is the worst I have ever had, its low quality cooked wrong and kept way too long. I love bubble tea and was excited to try theirs since its near my house. I went one time in the afternoon and it was awful and I thought maybe they had just only made one batch all day so I tried it a different day in the morning and it was still awful. Their coffee has been fine but I was so severely disappointed by the bubble tea I dont even want to go there anymore.

As a fairly knowledgeable coffee drinker/roaster/barista, I can only say I wish all espresso houses were as consistent and customer-friendly as Fioza.Price alone is a poor criterion for quality; I cannot drink Charbucks coffee at any price, and do go out of my way to visit Fioza.Its the best this side of Seattle.

Review №95

My son turned us on to this great little gem tucked away near North Braeswood and Chimney Rock. We stopped in one day for lunch and the Paninis were great. Now it is a favorite weekly stop.And the coffee... I have tried several now, though my favorite is the mocha - but that has always been the case. Service is always friendly and the place is always spotless. WiFi and the ability to do a little work when needed is a great plus. Some outdoor seating on a pretty morning or evening and good conversation. Not the busy, buy everything feel of a Starbucks or brand store. More the comfortable atmosphere of an old school coffee house where you see and make friends. Oh, there is original artwork by local artists. Photos and paintings. We bought a landscape. Thanks, guys.
