I had a blacksmith bowl with an egg. It looked interesting and colourful. The egg was the the only tasty element in the bowl for me. There was no depth of flavour in the dish. Lots of things in the bowl but they don't really go together unfortunately. Maybe this is what it's supposed to be like but it doesn't work for me. If you are a real foodie - this is definitely not a place to be. I won't go there again.

Popular Montrose coffee shop with tasty food offeringsI tried their Dark Forrest drink, which was tasty but slightly pricy at $7 ($8.58 with tax/tip). Their Vietnamese Steak and Eggs are great but they didn’t have any when I visited. Staff are friendly.Interior vibe isn’t too loud so a solid place to study. While there are large windows the interior can be on the dark side and I didn’t notice many (if any) wall outlets.

I find myself always wanting to come back here. It’s got such a laid back vibe and the food is so good! My go-to are the dos tacos and biscuit with strawberry jam and crème fraise. They are always freshly and consistently made!

The dark forest is amazing! My fav drink of all the coffee shops around the area. Petition to keep it as a permanent drink not just a seasonal drink please

This is truly my favorite coffee shop in Houston. The quality of their coffee is unmatched and the best I’ve ever had. I also LOVE the scratch made biscuits and the rest of their pastry items. The baristas here are so kind and make you feel like at home. Can’t say enough good things about Blacksmith!!

We had the best cup of coffee here while visiting HTX. The staff was so nice too! I also got a biscuit and butter&jam. They were warm and buttery! We bought a bag of coffee beans called "Contemporary" and it was amazing. Highly recommended!

I checked out this local coffee shop for a bite of brunch. I did the dos tacos, and house iced tea. They were fabulous, filling, and I loved the atmosphere. I was feeling a bit down, and the friendly staff and warm/welcoming environment perked me right up.

I came to Blacksmith a few years ago. It was a nice little cozy spot tucked away on a corner. The front of the building seemed to be under construction. Parking was in the back.The ambiance inside had the feel of a study hall. Hipster vibes. It was quiet and not a lot of conversations in the air. The wait in line was a bit long. After ordering I sat down. The seating felt a little awkward and tables felt really close. Not an issue but an observation nonetheless.I sampled the Vietnamese Steak and Eggs, Smoked Salmon Dill Scramble, Biscuit with cream fraiche and jam and Silver Platter Chilaquiles. Of the four, I preferred the Smoked Salmon Dill Scramble. The salmon had a great smokey flavor and the eggs were fluffy. It was a good combination. The biscuit was delicious!The Vietnamese steak and eggs were not bad but if you've had bò né at a Vietnamese restaurant in Houston, then you know this is not the same. Very good but not great. Still not a bad dish. The chilaquiles did leave something to be desired. They tasted good but just not what I'd expect from chilaquiles in an authentic Mexican restaurant. It was probably my least favorite of everything I ate there. Everything tasted good for a neighborhood cafe.The coffee was really good. Nice and strong! I enjoyed it.If you're looking for a quiet place to chill or just relax while drinking coffee, this is a great place to do it.

My first time here. Sitting here while writing the review and sipping some amazing coffee. Customer service is great. There was a minor miscommunication in my order, but the people there were so sweet and generous about handling the situation. Thank you! So excited to come to this place. Highly
