Barbarossa Coffee Roasters

"Visited this coffee place recently and had a mixed experience. The coffee itself was good; they definitely know how to brew a quality cup. However, my excitement waned when I received a frozen eclair on my first visit. Upon returning it, they simply microwaved it and handed it back to me, which was quite disappointing and puzzling. Despite this blunder, the cheese danish redeemed the visit with its incredible taste. While I'm hesitant about certain aspects, like the handling of pastries, I would consider returning solely for the amazing cheese danish"

"The Quiche, Blueberry Danish, Nutella layered Bar and Vietnamese has me Bananas. I'm undone and unwritten, these four were so heavenly. The atmosphere is kind. The staff are fast, efficient, capable knowledgeable about coffee and different methods to brew and serve speedily and with quality attention. It does seem like a family, with new customers always but also regular customers that gather and find a table to commune. It's sweet and for everyone. Every time I nestle in a corner with my laptop and coffee, I always see so much life around me..., people studying, older folks laughing, couples eating a glorious cheesecake, or a family giving macaroons to their kids with their wildly good strawberry smoothie. It's somewhere I enjoy a lot, as well as i've found it as a great space where more life is brewing out of it. The owner and staff also are very kind, attentive, very present, and involved and enjoy our community. I'm looking forward to the new location on gosling, to see all of the great things that will come out of this one as well. I'm grateful for Barbs. I'm also grateful for the other customers, and staff i've met here. One time I even moved from my solace, and got invited to sit with these two lads I never met, and we had a quality chat, time as we sipped on great coffee. Thank you guys for all your hard work, and all you are still doing, I SEE you!"

"Was hoping to find a great local coffee spot as we came in for the TX RenFest - I found it! Great coffee roasted in house. Breakfast sandwiches and pastries made in house. And lemme tell ya, Juliana dealt with me and my hundreds of questions first thing in the morning. She was great and answered everything with patience and grace. I appreciate you, Juliana! Great vibes in this place too. Lots of good seating. Will be back."

"Everything about my first visit to Barbarossa Coffee was exceptional. Service was fast and friendly, atmosphere was chill but vibrant, and the quality of the coffee and food was excellent. In all fairness, the prices were a little higher than expected, but there is real value in the product. I paid $6 for a Cuban Espresso (difficult to find in Houston) and $6 for a small 3” spinach quiche (presumably locally made). While here I got to talk coffee with one of the managers and see where they do their roasting. All in all it was a treat to take my afternoon coffee here and will likely be back to try the regular espresso or one of their many latte flavors."
