Jane And The Lion
4721 N Main St, Houston, TX
Crema's Take
“This Heights gem pulls in the crowds on weekend mornings with genuinely friendly staff and a rotating menu built on house-made sourdough and locally sourced ingredients. Their duffins are a standout (crispy-crumbly perfection), though the pastry selection can be hit-or-miss, so go in with an adventurous spirit. The space is intentionally intimate inside but spills onto a cute patio, making it equally suited for a quick coffee grab or lingering with friends over breakfast.”

Super friendly staff, it was popping at 9:50 am on a Sunday morning. Me and my friend got a duffin $6 ish (4.5/5⭐️) and strawberry pie $7 ish?? (2/5⭐️) Loved the duffin! It is a little crumblier than I would like but a hugeeee muffin The strawberry pie’s bottom crust was very soggy, and felt like it could be a little better. Iced americano was solid. There’s WiFi and both indoors and outdoors sitting area. Plenty of parking in the plaza Very cute interior and a lot of pastries. Would definitely comeback! Would be helpful if prices were all labeled!
Parking shouldn't be a problem. My visit was on a Sunday morning and it was packed, but the wait was not so bad. The egg sandwich is good, but I personally would not order it with sausage again, bc i found the pork sausage to be too dry for me. I do like that the sausage was not greasy, but it was just too dry for me. The kolache pretzel is good with mustard. I think it was the bread pudding muffin, and that was out of this world delicious. The quiche Lorraine is a winner. I will certainly order that again. The jalapeño biscuit is worth a try, very good. The service is efficient and friendly. It's a small venue, so it might be difficult to find a seat at a table. I highly recommend giving this place a try. I'm looking forward to trying more, and I will return.
If you are anywhere near The Heights and your're hungry, and want to support a local business Jane and the Lion is a must. Everything is either made in house or sourced locally. They are also a no waste kitchen, so any vegetables they don't sell during the week, become pickles the next. The food is great and the service outstanding. The pretzels are great, the salad honey pie is amazing. I'm hooked.
This was my first time going here and I can’t wait to go back! The food was delicious, and I loved all the little details around the place. Although I will say the inside is small so finding seating was hard. They have outside seating as well. Shoutout to the restrooms having a changing station for my baby girl
Can’t say enough lovely things about this place! Delicious nutritious menu with the best homemade sourdough breads. Rotating menu so you’ll never get bored. Cozy indoor seating as well as cute outdoor tables for days without seeing beautiful weather. The staff is always super sweet and helpful too. My new favorite place!!
