IntheKnowHouston Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 On 7/29/2023 at 5:32 AM, IntheKnowHouston said: Named Maven / Maven Coffee Co., the coffee shop and cafe will be located in the lobby of the hotel. It's one of several food and beverage options opening in the hotel. The coffee shop is from Houston Astros pitcher Lance McCullers Jr. and Juan Carlos Martinez de Aldecoa (Eximus Coffee). Located in The Allen mixed-use development, Maven aims to open in November (at least that's what's indicated on Maven's website and social media). Building permits lists the address for Maven as 1711 Allen Parkway Floor 1. However, the address on Thompson Houston's website lists 1701 Allen Parkway. https://www.chron.com/food/article/astros-mccullers-coffee-cocktails-18257984.php https://mavencoffeecompany.com https://www.instagram.com/mavenhouston/ Maven / Maven Coffee + Cocktails opens to the public next month.
