Came to check out this cafe for some coffee. The parking is a bit limited and confusing since there are car wash going on in the same plaza. This place has car wash and hookah lounge which I think is a cool concept.The customer service is friendly and their coffee is very good. My order was a bit picky and the lady who got my order wanted to make sure everything was fine and I appreciate it.I also ordered chocolate croissant... which I dont think I will order again. I asked for it to be heated which I was thinking was just a little bit so its soft and warm, but after 10min of waiting, it came out and the chocolate completely melted. The cafe wasnt busy at all either.. anyways by the time I came back (8min drive), it was all cold and hard. I paid almost $4 for this. I guess I was expecting so much more and thats why I was disappointed.I did like their cafe ambience, very bright and clean. While I do not smoke, the hookah lounge looked pretty cool and new. I would probably return for coffee and maybe if I have to study/get my work done.

First time coming here and the place looks wonderful! Great customer service.The one thing I didnt like that much was the crepe, being that it only had Nutella (I knew what I order). It was way too sweet and I only ended up eating half of it. Order a cold brew to wash down the sweetness from the crepe and hazelnut latte.

Great atmosphere with good coffee. The waffles and crepes smelled great, so maybe next time well try them. I dont know if different sizes were available, but the cappuccino came in a kids size sbux cup. Parking is very limited and shares with a car wash.

Cute little coffee shop in the Galleria/Richmond/Chimney Rock area. It is a little hard to find since its in the back of a car wash, but its a gem in the midst of all the other crowded coffee shops in the area. Quiet and solid coffee, good to work or study. They offer a few pastries as well. Only issue was Wifi was a little slow, and little attention to the bathroom (missing soap and paper, not dirty). Service is great.

Good coffee, and great prices! Cheaper than Starbucks and much, much better. The place is really nice as well, nice is really an understatement. The place looks amazing, marble everywhere. Im surprised it wasnt more busy.

Came here to get some work done. I love that it is spacious, outlets galore, and the cleanest bathrooms Ive seen in a coffee shop. I got a caramel latte, perfection. Usually I add sweetener cause at other places, they tend to be a little bitter. When I asked for sweetener, the barista told me to try it first that it was tasty as is. Glad I listened to her. Very clean place. The baristas are constantly cleaning each table whenever someone leaves. They also consistently wipe down door handles and mop the floors. A+ for cleanliness. They have hookah here which is strange for a coffee shop but I know its Nigerians running this place now so Im not too shocked about it.I would give it 5 stars but the noise level in this place is unbearable. Like this is a coffee shop at the end of the day, not a club. You can barely hear your own thoughts. Dont even bother coming here if you have a conference call to make. I can only come here when Im doing administration work and can wear my noise canceling headphones. But never for a meeting. Too bad, thats the only thing wrong with this place. Next time Ill tell them to lower the volume. If they say no, Ill probably not come back here.

Delicious! Well-flavored, rich coffee, perfectly fixed. The places name has changed; it is now Drip, not Foam, so there was a moment of confusion.

Review №13

Very nice and welcoming staff and great drinks! We got the flat white and the matcha latte, and both were super good. From the outside the location looks a bit sketch b.c its near a warehouse and carwash, but the inside is super nice and very aesthetically pleasing. You can tell that the owner is passionate about their work.

Review №14

Coffee itself is great. The environment is very minimal modern. Its obvious theyre still working on their set up; next door they own a car wash that hasnt been finished and theres strong paint & maintenance smell coming from it. Other than that, given its a brand new coffee house, its nice and peaceful. I hope to see the menu keep growing and perhaps more seating and AC outlets would also be nice.

Great for after dinner dessert, a quick snack, or if you need a quiet space to work on your computer.Pros: excellent/kind/fast service, good drinks, amazing crepes (try the Dulce de Leche--its absolutely delicious!), overall good variety in their menu, good amount of seating with some comfortable seats if you just want to lounge for a while. They also have a hooka section, if thats your thing.Cons: small parking lot, difficult to get in and out of the parking lot.

Foam is a surprising treat; especially thos part of town. The outside looks cheap, not helped by being attached to a car wash. The inside looks incredible. All white clean and marble. The owner Abrahams choice to use only Greenway Coffee is great. A nice selection of pastries and teas. I highly recommend. Especially if you actually need a carwash. Go get it washed and have some great coffee.

I decided to try out more local spots, and Im glad I did. I got their Dulce de Leche Crepe and it was delicious not too sweet, it was missing the coconut shavings though. I also got an iced latte with a vanilla pump and it was good, maybe would have added more vanilla since I do like my coffee on the sweeter side.

Outstanding coffee (real coffee) and great customer service. This coffee shop is in an unexpected but easy to access location just off Richmond at the back of a carwash. The interior is modern and well designed with plenty of tables. Clearly designed with passion and the coffee is extremely good. As a barista I was impressed. The service was great, prices fair and environment comfortable. Parking is not a problem either. Highly recommended even if its not your normal spot.

Take my advice, If you dont speak fluent English or you do not tip, dont go there.You will be charge an extra Dollar without letting you know when you choose soy milk for your coffee.The latte wasnt taste right cuz too much soy milk.The quantity of double shot Macchiato was as little as just one.Wifi was not working the whole time (abt 30) when we were there.

Ive been here twice. The first time was in January. I ordered a cold brew. I got charged for the cold brew, then it turned out they were out of cold brew, so the barista decided to substitute for an iced americano. It tasted terrible. The barista was nice about it, so it wasnt a super big deal.I went back today. I ordered a ginger twist -- which they did, in fact, have. But it didnt taste like ginger. It didnt taste great either. And the plastic cup top had dust all over it. And the floor looked like it hadnt been swept in a while.This is a SUPER pretty place to do work or study. I wouldnt recommend for drinks though.
