Barbarossa Coffee Roasters

I tried this place for the first time and was very excited to try it. However, it was pretty short-lived. My coffee just tasted like straight up milk and syrup and the wifi went out (which is understandable, it happens sometimes). I went to the barista and asked her if she could turn the wifi router off and on to reboot it (sometimes that fixes the issue) and she said “sorry I don’t know how to do that” when there were 2 other people there with her. One looked like the owner that she easily could have asked. Then, I went up to the bar to throw away my drink because I couldn’t locate a trash can. The owner and barista both just kind of looked at me without acknowledging my presence. Didn’t ask if I needed anything. They spent a few minutes in the back after making sandwiches for the owners kids that were there and finally came out. After finally coming out, the barista took a customer’s order who had just walked up to the counter after I had already been standing at the bar for several minutes at this point. She did see me standing there, too, but chose to take an order for someone who just walked up to the register seconds before. She never acknowledged me— I had to wave at her and say excuse me and ask her to throw away my completely full drink that I only took one sip of. She didn’t ask me if there was any problem with it, if she could get me anything else, nothing. I didn’t even bother asking at that point because I was over it. I will not be coming back here.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
As the owner of Waterloo Turf Houston, a veteran-owned local business, I know what it takes to deliver quality, consistency, and great customer service. That’s why I have to give credit to Barbarossa Coffee Roasters in Spring, TX—they truly set the bar for excellence.

Every visit here is a 5-star experience. Their artisan coffee roasting, specialty blends, and smooth espresso drinks are second to none in Spring, The Woodlands, and the Houston area. The baristas are professional, welcoming, and clearly passionate about their craft.

The shop has the perfect balance of cozy and modern, making it great for meetings, working, or just relaxing with a cup of the best coffee in Spring.

It’s always great to support fellow local businesses that value quality as much as we do. If you’re searching for premium coffee in North Houston, Barbarossa Coffee Roasters is a must-visit.

Lauren was very nice from the moment I walked in. She greeted me right away, even though she appeared to be juggling several different orders at the same time. She was friendly, professional, and kind while taking my order, never missing a beat. She got me in and out quickly, and the service was excellent.
I returned another day hoping for the same great experience, but unfortunately Lauren wasn't there. This time, the two baristas working never acknowledged me or even said, "We'll be right with you." They seemed more focused on talking with a guest who had arrived before me. From what I could tell, they didn't have a line of orders and appeared too busy with their conversation to acknowledge a waiting customer.
Lauren set a high standard for customer service. I hope the rest of the staff can follow her example, because she made a very positive impression.

Husband and I tried their honey pistachio latte and a caramel frappe - definitely recommend! We also had a slice of their carrot cake and cheesecake - good

Vibe is nice, very college/student friendly with wifi!

For all 4 items, about $30 (April 2025)

I'm so glad I stopped in!
I had a blueberry day- with a blueberry cream scone and a lavender berry latte (which i had never even heard of before)!
They were both so beautifully tasty!
The staff were so sweet, welcoming, and kind! The store is cozy- I will definitely be back with my laptop soon!

I’m not one to leave one star but I’m doing this because I hope that whoever sees this will make some type of difference.

I’ve been here many times at this location and the timing it takes to get a coffee is absolutely ridiculous.

I will be the only car at the drive-through and on average it takes about 20 minutes from the time I order to the time I get my coffee.

The reason is because this place is always understaffed. Whoever is running this company is too cheap to hire a third person and it’s always only two people working, which is impossible to serve all the orders coming inside and at the drive-through in a timely manner. typically, there’s only one person making a drink, and the other person‘s placing orders are giving out the drinks. Y’all make enough money hire a third person so y’all can get some better service.

The only reason this place has so many good reviews is the owners have everyone in their family leaving good reviews . Look through the reviews and you’ll see a commonality in every single person. ITS THEIR FAMILY

First time here and so impressed. Got a couple of recommendations that were excellent.

Gorgeous interior! Wit plenty of places to sit if you are meeting up for a coffee date, working or studying.

Ordered the pistachio honey latte and the red eye. Definitely will be going back!!

Customer service was top tier!!

The ambiance is great for meeting up with friends, studying, working or playing a game of chess. The staff is always friendly and don’t mind answering my questions about their menu. The coffee is great and they have a unique matcha latte (with spirulina!). Their food is tasty. Restroom is clean. It checks all the things a coffee shop should be. Just wish I lived closer!

Love this new find!! The coffee was delicious, and the atmosphere was very comfortable and clean. Free wifi. I got an almond croissant, and my friend got the vegetable quiche. Both were very good, but they were warmed a little too long. They basically cooked them... causing both to be dryer than I believe it should have been. Service was warmed and knowledgeable. Drive thru available, but if you have time, come inside and get a coffee.

I came across this coffee shop after a doctor’s appointment and was immediately impressed by the variety of drinks and pastries and snacks they offer. From savory bites to sandwiches, pastries, to lattes, refreshers and smoothies. It was definitely a tough time picking my drink! But Juliana, one of the employees that was there at the time, was super helpful and kind! She was funny and engaging, rather than just being quick about taking an order.

The cafe is spacious and has a great amount of comfortable seating. Plenty of people were working from here and having meetings. It’s very modern, open and airy! I ordered a snickerdoodle latte and an almond croissant. The latte was so smooth and of high quality. I love that they don’t over sweeten the latte. It’s the perfect amount of sweetness.

My boyfriend ordered the egg & cheese biscuit and a hurricane refresher. He said it tasted like the key west and was impressed by the taste of the biscuit and that it wasn’t dry. It seems like it’s going to be a pit stop after Dr’s appointments for sure! 🤭

Love this coffee shop. Great ambience for working and even better coffee!

Mark the barista is such a sweetheart! We came early morning on a Wednesday and had never been here before. He recommended great drinks and breakfasts foods to try.

We both got the spinach and feta pinwheels, and some matcha lattes (I highly recommend the Earth Day Matcha, and then my friend got an iced honey and lavender matcha) and they were top quality. delicious.

Once we sat down, I was having trouble connecting to the wifi, so Mark actually came out from around the counter to help me connect. Super kind person and great service!!

Would definitely come back 👍🏻👍🏻

Good service and atmosphere! wifi is stable and music is great. Seating is abundant and comfortable. Coffee was not the greatest. Flat white had too much milk, so I also can’t comment on coffee itself.
Had a cheesecake which was tasty! Would love some sort of soft chocolate dip with it.
Would come back for the vibe alone to work.

I had a great Snicker Doodle latte and the guy working during the afternoon was super kind and personable! I appreciate that he was able to tailor the sweetness of my coffee how I wanted it. Coffee places like this are why going local is better!!

Great coffee shop with comfortable seating, strong wifi, and yummy pastries. Service was excellent. Friendly staff and everything was clean. Only two items I would mention:

1. Prices are a bit high (most pastries were in the $6-7 range, although they are large servings and easily shareable).

2. Drip coffee I ordered was not very hot. When it got too cold to drink, they were not able to reheat it for me (I get it, health regulations). However, since I didn’t purchase a bottomless cup (I can’t drink more than one cup), I was stuck with a half cup of cold coffee that I had to throw away.

But, these were relatively minor issues. Overall I recommend this place for good coffee and a nice atmosphere.

If you are in a hurry DO NOT STOP HERE!

If you want a good product, served by VERY nice and courteous staff. This is your place! Most of the products are made locally. There is plenty of seating with laptop table space and lots of electrical outlets. I could not recommend this place more, if, and only if, you have plenty of time. But, if you are in any time constraint, even thinking about stopping here will slow you down. It's basically a French restaurant's paced service.

We always have great service when we come - inside and in the drive-thru. You can tell that the associates like working here. The coffee is really well made - my favorite in the area. The store is cute and quiet - nice for a conversation or to read a book.

Vietnamese coffee was great. Gentleman working was very personable and nice to talk with.

Great friendly staff and customers. I was here for my lunch. Fantastic meeting place. Free wifi available and wall sockets. Food and drinks top marks! I will be back again tomorrow.

The best place to go when I need a pleasant smile with my caffeine fix! Need a place to just chill out and work on your laptop? Order any pastry on the menu and find a comfy spot!

The shop is cute and a vibe on the inside and the workers mark and Erin that we’re working are so sweet and helpful.

The employees working here super nice and friendly. Great atmosphere also
