Enjoy the Venue
The converted warehouse gives an industrial look and feel, and Tout Suite retains the rugged interior by retaining the floors from its past life of having been a Ford dealership, a motor oil shop, and a nightclub.
The large front windows go from the high ceilings all the way down to the floor and provide natural lighting perfect for enjoying your breakfast or lunch.
Despite the lunch rush or coffee breaks there, it does not feel overcrowded in the building, but if you’re looking for an excuse to hang late, the bright city lights and Houstonians walking about adds to the view.
Selfie Spots
A picture is worth a thousand words. With the industrial warehouse vibes, there are plenty of places indoors to take pictures with your friends.
Even a selfie at the pastry selection can become Instagram-worthy. The bricks and wooden planks that make up the ceiling and walls add a nice touch to photos, and of course, the latte art in your coffee can complement any hashtag.
If murals are your thing, right across the street you can find the #teamhouston mural at Donkey Paw Printing.
