Fully caffeinated
Common Bond's piping-hot On The Go concept rises at bustling Memorial City green space
Visitors to The Lawn in front of the Hotel ZaZa at Memorial City have another option for tasty pastries and coffee-shop fare.
Common Bond, the popular bistro and bakery known for its exquisite croissants, macarons, cookies, and an array of coffee drinks, has opened a second grab-and-go spot there.
The move follows its successful launch of Common Bond On-The-Go at Two Memorial City Plaza, as food editor Eric Sandler reported.
Guests to The Lawn location can expect Common Bond's signature coffee drink, the Frozen Bond, along with a selection croissants, scones, kouign-amann, kugelhopfs, and macarons.
For breakfast grab the mushroom, egg and cheese; bacon, egg and cheese; or egg and cheese croissant. There's also fresh yogurt with granola. Lunch options include salad bowls filled with fresh ingredients; sandwiches such as The Lemongrass Pork, a harmonious blend of savory and zesty flavors, or the Texas Club Croissant, a twist on a classic favorite.
Frosé and mimosas are available by the glass or in a carafe. Common Bond also offers curated box lunches along with custom catering options for in-office gatherings and celebrations.
Memorial City's first On-The-Go opened a few weeks earlier as part of a $25 million renovation to the 18-story office tower at 820 Gessner. These new Common Bond locations are part of a series of transformational changes MetroNational, the real estate and development firm that oversees the area, has planned, designed to encourage Houstonians to live, work, and play at the city within a city.
“The opening of On-The-Go on the Lawn at Memorial City has been much anticipated by our loyal and valued customers," said Jason Gould, executive chef of Common Bond in a press release announcing the move. This unique On-The-Go experience will allow customers visiting The Lawn to cozy up and enjoy events with a dessert and a glass of wine or enjoy a casual dinner paired with their favorite Common Bond signature drink. We love community and this location will create another hub that brings people together to bond over great food and create lasting memories."
