Blacksmith, Houston TX

Lovely little coffee shop. Indoor and outdoor seating. Great food menu and baked goods. Excellent coffee offerings with lots of decaf and alternative milk options.

One of my favorite coffee shops in Houston. Excellent cortados, great food, and sells beans from Greenway roasters. Also I love the free drink when you buy a bag of beans!

Delicious breakfast. I had the steel cut oats with strawberries blueberries and mixed nuts. I also had the croissant with cheese, bacon and a fried egg on top. Yummy.

This was my 1st time to Blacksmith and I will definitely be back. The food was good. I ordered the Salmon Pesto Scramble and my sister ordered the bacon and egg n cheese biscuit. The biscuits are thick and crumbly textured. So of you like that type of biscuit that's what I recommend. It can be filling. The coffee was great! Pictures is caramel café latte and it was done to perfection. Even if you order a cup of black coffee the coffee is a good grade of bean to drink without anything extra!

I LOVE Blacksmith coffee. I always order an Oat Milk Vanilla Latte, sometimes I order with 4 shots.super delicious and makes me happy. The food is so yummy too. My favorite is the Silver Platter Chilaquiles add Avocado, with the Enchiladas a close second. Another recent favorite is an iced Chai Tea with Oat Milk. Every time my twin sister comes to town I take her to Blacksmith several times. Her favorite is the Scratch Square Biscuits both sweet and savory options. One of my old school favorites, no long on the menu, is Kentucky Hot Brown. Legendary. Recently they have added some new awesome sweet treats such as; sprinkle cookies, banana bread, maple pecan scones, coffee cake and more.

Outdoor seating with proper sun shielding, got to love it. Small but effective coffee menu, with a side of teas and some other items. Haven't had food from here in years but the recent menu looks awesome. Worth your time to stop here.

The quality of food is outstanding and their prices reflect that. However, I ordered a biscuit and eggs over medium and I received a croissant with eggs over hard. The lady who brought us our food didn’t speak English so not much I could do unless I wanted to stand up and tell other employees but I wasn’t going to do that. The gentleman next to me also didn’t receive the correct food he had ordered.

Service needs to improve. Probably won’t come back.

Great coffee. Had their Chi Latte and loved it as well.
They are pretty hard on masks. So be aware and respectful when you come in.

It was a sour experience for me. There were four of us, three of us had our drinks and we're waiting for our fourth friend. We took our masks off to sip some delicious coffee and we're asked to do so outside. Masks are STRICTLY enforced.

Great products! Recommend for sure.

Great coffee and tasty scratch biscuits! One big downside is the use of styrofoam for to-go drinks - I wish they would change this!

Favorite coffee shop in town. Great breakfasts, tea and coffee. Some of the best biscuits in town. I also love the salmon dill scramble on pumpernickel.

First time here and I have one word, "basic".
Had the steak and eggs and the enchiladas.

Steak is not prepared fresh, basically a stew and is most likely precooked and frozen, side salad came undressed and not seasoned, wilted with browning ends; something that should NEVER be served to a customer. Eggs not seasoned and over cooked, Pate came in a plastic solo cup? Are you serious? Although the dish was bland, the cook on the steak was not terrible.

Chicken enchiladas were bland. Chicken not seasoned, eggs over cooked and not seasoned, however the sauce was the saving grace of this dish otherwise it would be a dry mess.

Presentation of both dishes did not meet my expectations of a restaurant with such high ratings and regard.

Not a good first impression, unfortunately.

Blacksmith is definitely charming. Their coffee was just ok, but our food was good and the service was fast and friendly.

Breakfast was outstanding! If you go, you MUST try their biscuits. Believe me, I know what great biscuits are. Their biscuits are the closest thing to my grandmother's I've ever had. That says more than you know.

This is one of the best coffee houses I’ve been to anywhere. The best part is: the service is amazing. Everyone on staff is so friendly and extremely helpful. They literally make you feel as if you’re a special guest at their home.
The coffee is delicious (I tried the drip medium roast). The Cortado breve hits the spot with the right level of creaminess and hints of sweetness from the beans themselves. They have a selection of beans and other items to purchase as well.
The ambiance is chill, yet noisy enough to create an atmosphere where you can concentrate if that’s what you need or you can space out and day dream if that’s what you’re in the mood for ;).
The food that I’ve tried is deliciously flavorful. The bowl has a mix of flavors and textures that keep delighting: hints of lime, spiciness from the steak, the umami from the mashed avocado, the fullness of the white cheese. All in all, you’ll keep eating and once you’re done, your taste buds will miss what you just had even though you’re actually too full to even move.
There are plenty of seats indoors and outdoors. Definitely check this place out - hands down one of the best places to come chill at.

Blacksmith has expertly-prepared coffee, delicious food and a professional, friendly staff. Lots of outdoor seating. Solid Wifi. Been coming here for three+ years to buy my whole bean coffee and have no plans of slowing down.:)

I'm continually impressed by the staff. Just this morning, I absentmindedly carried my puppy into the store in the middle of an early-morning-global-pandemic-uncaffeinated brainfog. I ordered my coffee and the barista quickly finished the transaction. They then politely and clearly pointed out that they don't allow pups inside. I apologized and they were very gracious and understanding. The barista then offered a great, simple solution for any future early morning visits with my pup: order my coffee from the pickup window outside. Works for me! I remain a very happy, loyal customer and the shop can remain in compliance with sensible health regulations. Win-win situation. Overall, I was very impressed with how the staff calmly and cooly handled what could've been a very awkward customer service encounter. It's positive experiences like that really make businesses stand out.

Nice little spot for coffee. Will try the food options next time. They are very responsible for keeping seating outside. There’s plenty of shade, even in the afternoon. Hopefully we will make some more progress with vaccinations in the next few weeks and the inside will open up again as other places are doing. The barista was super friendly. It’s a very nice chill spot.:)

Great coffee place that offers breakfast and lunch menu too. We had the blacksmith bowl and the vietnamese steak and eggs for lunch and it was a good portion! They also have a wode range of tea selection if coffee isnt your thing.

Logistics: ample parking space at the back of their store. Currently not having any indoor service, you place your order through their backdoor, and you can sit on their patio. If you're maskless, you can order on their website / or call ahead and they can bring it up to you like curbside.

My favorite locally owned coffee shop. The Corrado and flat white are favorite drinks, and the silver platter chilaquiles can't be beat. The employees and fast and friendly. Great Montrose spot.
