Cozy atmosphere, friendly service, and impromptu performances.

Drive all the way from Dallas. Best cafe I’ve been to hands down. Owner and staff are really friendly. I really recommend the Horchata Latte and the Rising Sun.

You won’t find Angelita’s Casa de Café on a top ten list, and it’s better that way. It's not the sort of place you stumble into on a quest for Wi-Fi and oat milk foam art. No. This place is for the ones who wander—not to escape, but to remember.

From the moment you step inside, it hits you—the smell of fresh coffee, buttery croissants warming in the oven, and some old lavender-scented floor cleaner that hasn’t changed since 1987.

It’s not so much a coffee shop as it is a memory. Books everywhere. Some stacked, some shelved, some just splayed open on tables like they gave up mid-thought. There's a worn leather sofa that practically begs you to take a nap, a floral loveseat that looks like it was rescued from a retirement sale, and mismatched chairs that creak like they’re telling stories of every backside that’s sat before you.

The croissant sandwiches are the unsung heroes here. Made with love and unapologetically messy—like your Tía Angelita herself might’ve slapped them together while gossiping over the morning news. Flaky croissants cradling fluffy eggs, sharp cheese, and just the right amount of crisp on the edges. And if you’re craving something gooey and a little indulgent, the grilled cheese bacon melt will make you believe in second chances. Golden toasted bread, thick slices of bacon, and a river of molten cheddar that sticks to your fingers and your soul.

The coffee? Strong, earthy, alive. Roasted fresh upstairs—you can smell it if you catch the air just right. There’s something beautiful about that: the beans still warm from the roaster above you, ground and brewed just steps from where they were born. No branding spiel, no tasting notes that read like poetry slam rejects. Just fresh, honest coffee that reminds you why you started drinking the stuff in the first place.

Music floats in and out, depending on the mood. Sometimes it’s boleros, sometimes it's old soul, and sometimes it’s just the hum of the ceiling fan and the lazy stretch of a stray cat named Frida sleeping under the counter.

There’s no rush here.  You order by talking to someone’s dad at the counter.

Angelita’s isn’t trying to impress you. It’s not curated. It’s not branded. It’s real. It’s the kind of place where you stay longer than you planned. Where you overhear strangers talk like family. Where you realize you’ve been carrying too much, for too long—and this place, somehow, lets you set it down for a while.

It won’t change your life. But it might remind you who you were before you got too busy trying to make one.

Places like this are rare. Don’t post about it. Just go.

Are you looking for a place to hangout, study or just grab a coffee to relax? This is the place to do all that. One of the few coffee shops where you can actually grab coffee not just espresso based drinks. You are not feeling any of that and want a french press or a pour over coffee, they also serve that. Oh and their seating is actually inviting and comfortable. On top of that they dont charge extra to upgrade to your favorite milk.

Went for the first time thanks to my friend. We enjoyed a cup of hot cocoa and ate a breakfast croissant. The food and drink were great. We loved the atmosphere very homey. I loved that we were able to enjoy it with my 2 yr old. He loved the board games and stuffed animals. The owners were very nice, definitely enjoyed the conversation we had. I honestly give it a 10/10 and will be back. Definitely recommend this local place.

The food is perfect and love the cozy atmosphere to focus on work. A perfect place to keep kids distracted and is kid friendly place however I do encourage parents to teach your kids to be quiet to let others concentrate. The service is perfect and are always attentive with your needs when you ask.
