Beloved Korean-influenced coffeeshop Tom N Toms, located in Houston's Chinatown, has opened a new Galleria area locale at 5353 West Alabama St. The popular bean roaster's slogan, “Refresh your body and soul,” was borne out from the owner's desire to establish a warm, welcoming environment where friends come together to enjoy a cup of coffee and delicious food. 

Originally established in 2004, Tom N Toms was founded in South Korea as a way to introduce coffee into a culture that was unfamiliar with the trend of coffee at the time. They started a movement into Korea’s first 24-hour coffee service, and from there, introduced the first coffee roastery that provides fresh coffee beans, with the taste and quality unmatched to this day. Since its establishment, Tom N Toms has received national and international recognition for its services and products, and, as a result, has expanded across Korea and globally, resulting in more than 500 locations worldwide. These locations include Singapore, Mongolia, China, Thailand/Myanmar, Philippines, Australia, Malaysia, Qatar, and the United States. TNT’s endless growth into the coffee market has allowed Korea to further develop its coffee culture in unique ways. However, TNT remains at the forefront of Korea’s coffee culture, as it continues to grow today.
