Retrospect Coffee Bar

Absolutely loved this sweet little place!! We were in town and just lucked up on it. Cute little old gas station repurposed as an adorable little coffee shop! Great coffee and food and dog friendly! The atmosphere is just perfect. Every neighborhood needs one like this! I wish I couldn’t given more than 5 stars!

I love this place. The coffee is good (and I’m picky about my coffee) & the employees are always so nice and making conversation with you. It’s a great place to go just enjoy the day with GOOD coffee. In the back, there is plenty of seating with a lovely little outdoor ambiance.

Cute coffee spot with outdoor seating only. The many fans in the shaded area outside do a great job keeping the area cool. The bathrooms are accessible through the shaded area. I ordered a hot matcha with oat milk and vanilla syrup and my husband ordered a hot matcha with almond milk and strawberry syrup. They were both delicious. The strawberry syrup made it taste like a strawberry sorbet, yum. The oat milk and vanilla pairing made my matcha taste earthy, felt grounding and soothing going down. Great place to stop and have a quick meetup or casual meeting.

I came here in the beginning of August, and the coffee was delicious! (I was told the taco was good too.) The service was quick and easy, very cute location. Right next to houston community college so perfect for before, in between, and after class.

Hidden gem in Houston!!! Great vibes, friendly staff, and some of the best coffee I’ve had in the city. The espresso was smooth, and the crepes were fresh and delicious. Loved the historic gas station setting — it adds so much character. Perfect spot to relax, catch up with friends, or get some work done. Can’t wait to visit again!
