WAH Coffee plans a new Cypress cafe at 8227 Greenhouse Road, with a $350,000 renovation that would turn leased retail space into a coffee shop with customer seating. The project adds a neighborhood cafe to the Retail at Greenhouse center near Longenbaugh Road.
A November 3 registration with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation provides new construction details for the previously reported location: 1,875 square feet, a tenant build-out and design work by Kuvo Architects. MCAP Greenhouse is listed as the property owner.
WAH Coffee plans a seated cafe
The filing describes an interior conversion of existing commercial space rather than construction of a separate building. Its scope explicitly includes a customer seating area, giving Greenhouse Road customers a place to sit down rather than simply pick up a drink.
Hunington Properties lists Retail at Greenhouse at 8227 and 8231 Greenhouse Road. Its marketing brochure identifies WAH in Building B, helping place the cafe within the two-building center.
A Houston-area brand expands northwest
The WAH Coffee website currently lists locations in Richmond, Montrose and Sugar Land. Its offerings include salted caramel, banana bread and tiramisu lattes, along with matcha and pastries. The brand also promotes a food menu with burgers, chicken sandwiches and Korean fried wings.
Those offerings describe the existing brand; a Cypress-specific menu has not been released. The expansion would bring WAH to a different part of the Houston area, with a location serving the Greenhouse Road and Longenbaugh Road corridor.
Construction schedule and opening plans
The filing estimates construction from November 16, 2026, through February 28, 2027. The $350,000 cost and schedule are preliminary, and WAH has not confirmed an opening date for the Cypress cafe.
An October 23 Hoodline report, citing Community Impact, had identified January 2027 as the opening target. The later completion estimate in the new filing creates a schedule difference, but it does not establish that the company has announced a delay.
For Cypress residents, WAH Coffee could bring another neighborhood coffee and casual dining option to the Greenhouse Road corridor, with seating for customers who want to stay awhile. As the project moves forward, a location-specific announcement from WAH should clarify its opening date, menu and operating hours.
