Oso Coffee Co.
2603 Navigation Blvd, Houston, TX
Crema's Take
“Nestled in Houston, this coffee shop earned its reputation with creative house-made drinks like their signature vanilla iced americano with sweet cold foam that keeps customers coming back for more. Beyond excellent coffee, they're known for their churro-like pancakes and thoughtful touches—the owner personally greets guests and has been known to surprise families with complimentary treats. It's a genuinely welcoming spot with plenty of parking and comfortable seating that works equally well for a quick caffeine fix or a longer hangout with friends.”

I had the iced americano with vanilla and sweet cold foam = OMG! It was a damn good drink! Highly recommend this place, but talk to the old man as the girl working the counter seemed to be bothered to be working today. Old man has great attitude and super friendly!
Friendly staff and delicious breakfast with coffee. Owner came and said hello and gave us free pancakes for the kids. They were delicious and tasted almost like a churro or donut. Will be back. Great local spot.
Good place for Mexican drinks, coffee, matcha, and pastry items. Great space to sit down or to catch up with friends or work. They have a big parking lot. Good service. I highly recommend it would come back.
After eating across the street, my family and I wanted to have some dessert and coffee to let the rain pass before heading home. Excellent choice to hang out. We walked in to a very welcoming staff that answered all the questions we had on drink choices. The cream cheese empanada was delicious and the coffee was great. Even the other customers who were there sparked up friendly conversation. It was a good time to sit, relax, and talk. If you're in town on Navigation Blvd., check this place out.
I wanted to love Oso Coffee because I live nearby and really like supporting local businesses. Unfortunately, I won’t be returning. The inside is very congested, to the point where I had to nearly body swipe someone just to get to the register (which also isn’t clearly visible when you first walk in). The menu is limited with no non-pork options, and the salsa could use more flavor/spice. My caramel latte also wasn’t great—the syrup tasted a bit off. The coffee just doesn’t hit. I ordered the papas with an egg. So underwhelming, the potatoes weren’t even crispy, just drenched in oil. Not to mention they do not carry ONIONS, wild. I appreciate that the café is pet-friendly, as a dog owner myself (I have 3!), I love when places welcome pets. But this spot is just too small for large dogs walking around and jumping on counters. With how tight the layout is, it ends up feeling uncomfortable for customers. combination of space, food/drink quality, and overall flow makes it hard to enjoy.
