They are always out of something so best to have a plan B or C. Friendly Staff this morning made up for it! Good treats.

I hate leaving a not so glowing review but I have to be honest, the coffee wasn’t great. The vibes are vibing and the place is great to hang out, I really loved the energy. Maybe I didn’t choose the right drink. My daughter ordered a chai and it was watery. They were nice enough to make her a different drink. She opted for a matcha and that also didn’t taste good. I got the basic ghoul latte. My coffee was ok but wasn’t anything special. Overall, I can tolerate mediocre coffee for the great atmosphere. If you’re picky about your coffee, then maybe try another spot.

The Latte was so watery and I paid $6 for a small plus a tip. I only tipped because the ladies were so nice other than that horrible drink.

Excellent Espresso, they have a Marzocco Strada after all, as well as fantastic mint tea. I very much enjoyed the laid back service and atmosphere, plus the complimentary hot water refill was extremely nice. I always feel a bit weary ordering tea outside, but it was very high quality and I thoroughly enjoyed every sip of it! I'll definitely be back!
Btw, as a Blackhole Coffee regular it endearingly felt like stepping into a parallel universe. Both are tugged away in a sleepy mini neighborhood strip mall under trees, with a washeteria to their left and a good third of the seats are occupied by study groups.
Arguably the best lattes in Houston with the espresso always good and strong. Staff members are fun and helpful and the empanadas are amazing (get yours early because they will run out each day). Mercantile also opens most holidays because that’s how hard-working and dedicated their employees are.

This place feels really sloppy at times. One particular employee is getting too comfortable… touching and feeding dogs (who are allowed inside) while on service and being WAY too loud with the regulars. This one customer took a while to grab her coffee order from the counter and the employee made a sarcastic comment when she went up to get it. I mean, just say “thank you” or “enjoy” …

Good atmosphere to work and study while enjoying a latte.
Mercantile, what are your business hours? Google maps and the provided website have different times, also I called the phone number shown in the website and the Google maps and it seems to be a personal number and not the business phone number. Please help, thank you so much in advance (: I'd like to know in order to coordinate and not show up at 6pm expecting it to be open until 9pm, just to see that yall are closed.

Dude saw the post about not getting service, same thing happened last week lol. The baristas saw me come in and I was the only person in line. They stayed talking to some older bald guy about dogs at some shelter, and ignored me.
