Coffee Houses in Kingwood Area. Out of all the Coffee Houses located in and around the Kingwood area what would you say is the best? Taste and price wise. I usually do the home brewed but, in a hurry, I still think Starbucks is the best, just black coffee that it is. Nothing else. I have tried a few others, but the taste was not there. Bitter or watery. What is your take?

Inspiration Coffee in Atascocita. Delicious coffee and pastries. The owners are very nice.
Dino Coffee in New Caney; the rest are disappointing, to me, especially Eightbucks

Javaman they have a little outlet in the HEB at WLHP. Fig & Table, very cute place.

Sadly, I have yet to find a good coffee shop locally we venture out to find the best ones, some standouts have been New Heights Coffee Roasters, Conduit Coffee, TwoTone Coffee, Cambrian Coffee, Fifth Vessel and Blendin' Coffee Club, personally I like my coffee shops to be doing innovative things with coffee, elevating the art and most of these fit that bill. There is one in Conroe I want to try called Urban Grind but we haven't made it over there yet. We went to Shouting Grounds and it was fine but only if you are in the mood for a basic "dessert in a cup" type coffee or something even more basic, which if I wanted just that I wouldn't be at a coffee shop, haven't made it to Fig & Table yet though.

The Trail Bistro. (aka my house).
We have a subscription to a service that provides small batch roasts from independent coffee makers. We choose whole bean and grind as we go for these.
We generally use a drip coffee maker. On 'special' occasions, I get out the French press (ooh, la la, oui oui, c'est si bon). Those we have on weekends as a treat.
Almost exclusively, it's a dark roast. On weekdays, it's a brand like Black Rifle, Death Wish, Peets, Stumptown, Counter Culture, and if we HAVE to Starbucks.
If I'm feeling like I've earned a real treat, I get Jablum Blue Mountain Whole Bean. It's over $90/lb.


I always wondered about Death Wish coffee. If, I was looking for a special treat, I don't think $90/lb for coffee would cut it!🤣

It's not $90 for a single cup of coffee. It's $90 for a 16 ounce bag.
My calculation is that that bag will make about 12 eight cup pots.
It is less than a dollar per cup, a high price for coffee brewed at home but it is incredible. Just think about it this way, if you go to Starbucks every weekday for work and spend $4.50, you have just spent $90 on 20 cups of coffee.
I only get it once a year.
The last time I was in Jamaica, I negotiated with a local for two bags for $100 cash 💵. A win for both of us.
