I love the food at this place - especially the pizza! It's to die for and it doesn't make you feel terrible after you've eaten it. The service is also top-notch!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Taking Gym Food to New Heights
I’ve been a regular at 5.ATE Café for over two years, and the Climb & Dine event tonight finally pushed me to write this review. My son, our friends, and I tried everything on the menu — and it was all fantastic.
The pizza is always a standout, but the special pumpkin and burrata pizza they made for the event was truly unforgettable. Every dish was thoughtful and delicious, from the sliders to the PBJ taco, all served by a team that is always skilled, friendly, and clearly passionate about their craft.
5.ATE Café may be tucked inside a climbing gym, but the food is on a whole different level. Scratch-made sauces, homemade sourdough English muffin buns, and a consistently creative kitchen make this place a real treasure north of Houston.
If you’re climbing at inSPIRE or in the area, do yourself a favor and eat here. But honestly, even if you're far away or afraid of heights, it's worth the time and the drive!

Really surprised by this place. A whole in the wall place at the rock climbing place. The hamburger was delightful. They had a keto option for my lunch partner. This is a great place that people should definitely try.

The food was amazing. Wasn't expecting much from the place as my wife was hungry and we just dipped in to get something. Whwn we walked in and saw the rock climbing wall, I was really starting to doubt that the experience was going to be a good one. Boy was I wrong! 1. The person taking our order took the time to describe the different items on the menu. 2. The food prep was FAST and FRESH!!!! 3. The food was delicious! Many thanks to the person that took our order and prepared our delicious meals. We had the grilled chicken club with Sweet potato fries and Cajun fries. I recommend the peach tea also........free refills!

5ATE Cafe is one of the best places to eat. They have high quality food, house made sourdough and do amazing for accommodating dairy and gluten free guests. Every person that works here has always been so kind and accommodating!

Hidden treasure! If you want great pizza/burgers this is the place. Food is great. Pizza is the best that we have had in TX. We're from NY, and have had a tough time finding pizza we like. They make their own bread and pizza dough. Next time we'll try the banh mi.

Food ( a burger & a Ba Minh) was excellent; quickly prepared; and the staff was efficient & very welcoming. What a true little gem in a rock climbing gym.

This place is a hidden gem at a gym! The food is fabulous. We had a burger and tried the pizza. Wow!
I will add that we were taken aback by the fact this restaurant is inside a rock climbing gym. We both were so happy we stopped by.
This is a neat place to eat. I really appreciate that the restaurant attempts to accommodate as many dietary needs as possible. The food is excellent, from my couple of experiences, but I find it expensive. Not much to say about the service. Pretty much the only service you get is when you order your food. In my opinion, the atmosphere would be better if it was enclosed by glass, with one entrance, making it feel more like a restaurant. Seating is also limited in busy days.

Got a bacon avocado burger. The avocado was completely brown and the lettuce was soggy. Pretty sorry attempt at a common burger.

Absolutely a gem hidden within a rock climbing facility. Known by locals for some of the absolute best burgers served on English muffins. Pizzas are known to be amazing as well. My experience was with a burger and hands down one of the best I’ve ever had. Beyond that was the cook coming out to check on if it was prepared correctly. That extra show of attention really pushed this establishment far beyond 5 stars. Sweet potato fries were great as well as salad. The atmosphere watching young and old rock climbers of all levels was such a treat as well. Would highly recommend to anyone

Amazing food, and friendly people! I was really surprised to eat the best buffalo chicken sandwich of my life!
Albert L Gonzales
This place was a big surprise. As soon as I walked in I thought I made a mistake. I read a couple of signs saying the best hamburgers and brick oven pizzas by different national organizations. I ordered a hamburger and pizza. The taste was incredible. One of the best pizza and hamburger I ever had! Tasting is believing. Great atmosphere, but I do recommend more tables when I bring my family. I was glad to give this place a chance.
