“ The food and atmosphere is excellent but I should've ordered ahead. It took slightly longer than I expected so I had to change my order to go. You can't rush perfection. It was my first time there so lesson learned. It is a very classy artful place with a laid back relaxing vibe and would be perfect place for a first date or meet up. ”
“ This "House of Java" is a cozy local establishment with "Central Perk" vibes, freshly baked goods, and a few sandwiches and crepes made to order. This local college hangout is great for getting some work done with an eclectic atmosphere, some comfortable chairs and sofas, cheap’ish eats, and free wifi with purchase. Everything on the menu looked good, but I'll admit the Pumpkin Latte was terrible, so maybe that's bad luck, or people go for the price and the atmosphere and not the java? Beware the men's bathroom; it smells like a jock's strap, which is to say, bad enough to turn your stomach. Other than the smell, the bathroom was reasonably clean but shabby. The staff was friendly, but the trash overflowed the cans for hours. If you're going to hang out with friends and co-workers or get some work done, this is a pretty cool spot. Regarding the Food and Java, YMMV. ”
“ Lovely cafe! It is so beautiful inside and the food/drink is great. I really enjoy studying here and find it very conducive for learning It is slightly noisy, however, as it is really the only cafe open past 7 in town, and people generally come in groups to study. If you’re looking for a quieter environment, come earlier in the day! ”
“ Holy cow is this place amazing. Comfy chairs, amazing coffee and a vibe that could relax anyone. I had the Milky Way iced latte and it was delicious. I have my eye on the Apple fritters. Can’t wait to come back. ”
“ I used to come to Sweet Eugene’s when I was a little girl visiting my cousins in College Station; I am so happy to see it is still there and thriving. So much in Aggieland has changed - praying a developer doesn’t come demo this entire property to build a high rise; I love that there are some original parts of CSTAT history staying strong. Still the same vibe- delicious coffee, mellow vibe, yummy pastries. You literally can’t choose anything bad there - it’s all amazing! ”
