Best of Both Worlds? Pilates and Coffee at DUO Houston, 77098

Review Talking about a RARE find! Hidden away in plain sight, located in New Heights Houston, and marketed as a dessert store, Red Dessert Dive was an incredible find for coffee poops. Walking into this book nook of a store, you’re guaranteed to be greeted with a pleasant aroma of fresh baked cupcakes. During my stay there, the smell of cinnamon and cake from their first reveal of the oven door fills the room every hour. The atmosphere of the store gives a cozy, indie feel. As if it’s saying, “We like to make cupcakes and we’d like you to enjoy it here if you can.” Which I certainly did. They have many other baked sweets despite my obvious focus on the cupcakes. Muffins and cookies are certainly worth a try, but the cupcakes, bless the cupcakes. It’s made very simply in terms of the format, cake at the bottom and a nice dollop of piped icing on top, not spread, and the size is what I would argue to be the default size of any reasonable person’s imagination. Let’s just say it does not need to use its size to add a level of quirkiness to it. Even better, at the last hour of the store's operation, the cupcakes are buy one get one! The working conditions are exceptional. Outlets were easy to find, the internet was provided indefinitely, and seating was always available. Because most people come and go as bakery customers would, I don’t see it as a potential problem going forward. Coffee Poop Bathroom-wise, it’s a single private unisex room with a decent lock. Maximum privacy sure, but number two suspects would be easy to identify. Puns and comments aside. Parking might be the only challenge to your visit here. Go visit, eat lots of cupcakes, drink the coffee, and poop there.

Auctioned coffee, from Africa to South America, sleek and cozy spot perfect for a rainy day.
