Blue Tile Coffee

Named for the eponymous blue tile street names found around Houston, Blue Tile Coffee serves, you guessed it, coffee, and pastries next to the HEB off Washington and Heights. The open, high-ceiling space has lots of seating and outlets, but as always, be aware you will likely need to park in the garage or drive back and forth gauntlet-style on the ground level to find a spot. Wifi can be spotty, but once you’re settled in, time flies by thanks to the flood of natural light and the quiet din of literally everyone else around you diligently typing on their keyboards.
