Blendin Coffee Club opened its new location Jan. 29 at 3201 Allen Parkway, Ste. 170, Houston, in the historic Star Engraving Company Building, which has been renovated after serving as the home of Stages Repertory Theater.

The coffee shop’s original Sugar Land location remains open as well. Owner Weihong Zhang, who has a Ph.D. in biochemistry, founded the business in 2017, taking a science-based approach to roasting and brewing coffee.

The renovated building also includes office space tenants Thrasio, an e-commerce firm that builds Amazon-based businesses, the University of Texas-Austin’s Houston office, and the live entertainment booking agency Gulf Coast Entertainment.
