Found a new coffee shop in this area. Excellent coffee for the die hards. Quality and craftsmanship is superb. Their croissants are excellent as well. You can taste the layers and it's not greasy. Only tried the sweet ones and plain/butter. Have not tried the salty ones. A hidden gem are their cinnamon rolls. It's not overly coated with sugar and for an extra surprise, it's lemony! Must try!!

Luce Coffee Roasters has become a must-stop for me whenever I'm in Houston. I make it a habit to swing by for a coffee and croissant before heading back home to Austin, and it never disappoints. Honestly, it's probably the best coffee I've had in Houston, if not one of the best anywhere. The coffee is consistently excellent, with rich and complex flavors that truly showcase their roasting expertise. Beyond the exceptional coffee, their croissants are also flaky, buttery perfection – the perfect pairing for a morning pick-me-up. It's clear that they prioritize quality in everything they do, from sourcing their beans to the care they take in brewing each cup. The fact that they're a local business makes me even happier to support them. I highly recommend Luce Coffee Roasters to anyone looking for a truly exceptional coffee experience in Houston. It's worth going out of your way for. I'm always impressed with the quality and consistency, and I'm definitely rooting for their continued success!

My Gemini AI (P) recommended to grab a coffee here before we (him, the AI, and I) start the “Arkansas Scenic 7 Byway” Scenic Drive. And was not disappointed at all. Amazing service, amazing atmosphere, jaw-dropping good special Cream American with a twist (a twist is the condensed milk which makes the coffee unique, aromatic and creamy).

Love the vibe of this place!!!! The smell of coffee as and when you enter this place will make you fall in love with this place immediately. We tried the tiramisu latte, it was definitely unique and worth trying. Friendly staff and provided good service. Plenty of room upstairs seating for working from cafe. Plenty of free parking space outside of store. Definitely worth it! I give a 5/5 rating for my experience.

Luce Ave Coffee is an absolute gem. They roast their own beans in-house, and you can taste the quality in every single cup — rich, balanced, and truly exceptional. The space is beautiful, warm, and thoughtfully designed, but the real secret is upstairs. The loft space feels like a retreat tucked right inside Garden Oaks — quiet, peaceful, and the perfect place to step away, think, read, or get work done. If you’re looking for great coffee and an atmosphere that feels both elevated and welcoming, Luce Ave is the spot. Highly recommend.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This is a top coffee shop. The quality is always great! You can actually taste the coffee in your flavored drinks. I love how they don’t overpower the coffee flavor with their flavored syrups. You can tell that they actually took time to craft their drink selections. 10/10

Amazing staff! Received a warm welcome when we walked in and the barista at the counter was so helpful with our order. It was our first time there so the advice on our coffees was much appreciated! There is seating downstairs and upstairs with a selection of pastries to order as well. The tiramisu latte is so good; not too sweet and very tasty! Cold brew is super strong, so if you like it strong, it’s right up your alley!

Nothing bad to say about this coffee shop. I always down for a place that has its own personality. The coffee is pretty good. The staff is very nice and the prices are affordable. Now talking about prices. The only thing I would recommend for them to take a look at and maybe reconsider is their merchandise prices. They are even more expensive than Starbucks and that by itself is a lot to say. 40 USD for a tumbler? Yes, im lucky enough to be able tl afford it....but, would i spend that amount of money on a tumbler? NEVER! Pro tip: just enjoy the coffee and the pastries.

Great for the coffee aficionado. They will tell you all about the roasting and brewing if you're interested, but also have standard drinks like my regular sugar free vanilla latte with almond milk, that I get at every shop to compare evenly across the board. It was good, not the best, but definitely not bad. Small basic food and pastry offering like danishes and croissants with sausage,almond croissants, and blueberry muffins, but they were well made. For a small latte and an almond croissant I paid $12.77.

As a student, I’ve been coming here 3-4x a week for the past few weeks to get homework done, I’ve always had a good experience with minor issues here and there but nothing major and I'm usually there 6-8 hours at a time with every visit spending around 20 dollars to make sure I don't overstay my welcome. Unfortunately today I came in and ordered my usual, a caramel machiato with an extra shot of espresso and usually I am able to feel the caffeine right away but not today, I am unsure if they used decaf accidentaly but as I drank my coffee I felt myself dozing off and went to the restroom to wash my face to try and stay awake to no avail. I eventually left and felt myself dozing off while driving and had to stop somewhere to walk around before I got home. Fortunately I was able to get home safe but this has left me a bit startled.

I’ve been here a few times, and honestly, the first visit had me intrigued. It felt fresh, fun — I was into it. But every time I come back… the drinks just keep getting sweeter and sweeter. I’ve tried a few, and they’re all starting to taste like fancy liquid candy. Like, where’s the coffee? Where’s the flavor? It’s giving… “sweet something,” but not much else. Took a gamble on the activated charcoal espresso drink — and meh. All I could taste was processed sugar. Nothing memorable, nothing I’d crave. Oh, and the empanadas? Don’t bother. They’re basically a soft burrito with a little cheese snuck in. Weak. Not sure what’s happening here, but it’s feeling like a slow downhill slide every time I visit… just saying.

Takes 15 to 20+ minutes to get a luke warm latte (even though I said extra hot) which isn't that great. The tacos have powdered eggs and the tortilla taste like plastic. The salsa was good and flavorful. Honestly I should have gone to the gas station down the road and got a drip coffee with the little cups of half/half and breakfast taco. I would have enjoyed that and i would have been satisfied. In short its average coffee that I would not buy to use on my expresso machine.

Coffee is actually bad. Like the retail beans look like they’re bagged in garbage glad bags. And you can’t bring in a smoothie that you purchased next door. This is a genuine review, as I’m also including the black coffee I purchased
