Carino Cafe
708 Hogan St, Houston, TX
Crema's Take
“This Houston gem wins hearts with inventive matcha creations and house-made syrups that elevate both coffee and tea into something special, all served in a cozy covered patio space that feels like a neighborhood secret. The vibe strikes that perfect balance between a quick caffeine run and a lingering afternoon—pair your perfectly crafted drink with a fresh empanada and you've got the makings of a genuinely great local moment. With excellent pastries, an eclectic soundtrack, and a refreshingly unpretentious approach, Carino feels less like a trendy cafe and more like the kind of place you're genuinely happy to have discovered near home.”

Great location, nice specialty coffee drinks and tasty baked goods. It’s drive-up and walk-up only. They have a nice little doozy covered patio. It’s also right next to the best used bookshop in Houston.
What a great start. Shocked by how good everything has been with the soft opening. Really happy to have them in the neighborhood. Would love if they had wine and beer in the evenings!
I had the Bkueberry/Lavender Matcha and my husband had the Horchata Matcha and we each had an empanada. All of it was great! Cute lil’ place close to home. And the music was GREAT. Really chill vibes. 5/5 would recommend. Parking can be a bit rough, but it’s worth it. ❤️ Thanks y’all! Will gladly return!
Amazing coffee and matcha,incredible house made syrup and even better vibes.
