The coffee is actually good and sophisticated. I got the espresso straight. Tasted like an authentic. Bitter notes in the after. Typical for a dark roast. Would come back for sure. Like that they provide a soda water with the espresso for cleansing of the palate.
No frills, but just what we needed. 4 stars because nothing pushed me over the edge for 5. I went to Houndstooth around 7:30 in the morning on a Sunday after a night of fun...and drinks. We needed some coffee. I had a dirty matcha latte, which was only okay but did the trick. My wife had a vanilla latte she said was good. We also had a chocolate and plain croissant, both were slightly above average. I'd go back for sure, but nothing blew me away.
I had a fantastic experience at Houndstooth Coffee! The ambiance is cozy and inviting, perfect for catching up with friends or some quiet time. Their reserve coffee was exceptional, and the chocolate croissant was a delightful treat. Highly recommend.
Good cold brew. My wife got a vanilla latte. Admittedly, there was something a bit different about the vanilla that we didn’t love, but the latte was done very well and the atmosphere here is beautiful.
Above and beyond for customer service. Our barista was on point - professional and fast.
Houndstooth is a classic coffee shop that has clearly honed their craft of delivering staple coffees. Nothing crazy about this place and the menu is just about as standard as you can get, but don’t get me wrong, it’s good! It’s central location makes it the perfect pit stop during any errands you may be running, plus service was super speedy.
