The 137-year-old building is also home to Culpepper<\/a>, a Rockwall steakhouse, and Tatsu Dallas<\/a>, a Michelin-starred omakase restaurant.<\/p>\n \u201cIt is a beautiful space,\u201d said La Casita Coffee co-owner Maricsa Trejo<\/a>. \u201cIt\u2019s a perfect spot, so we thought why not.\u201d<\/p>\n Eat Drink D-FW<\/p>\n By signing up, you agree to our\u00a0Terms of Service<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Privacy Policy.<\/a><\/p>\n The Continental Gin Building in Deep Ellum in Dallas on Thursday, May 20, 2021. <\/p>\n Lynda M. Gonz\u00e1lez \/ Staff Photographer<\/p>\n With the Deep Ellum shop opening, Trejo and her partner in both life and business, Alex Henderson, now have four coffee shop locations. <\/p>\n \u201cMost of the times things just fall into our laps and we\u2019re really lucky,\u201d she said, \u201cbut this one we had to go for.\u201d<\/p>\n Trejo said the owners of the historic building were on the hunt for a coffee shop to replace the one that was previously there<\/a>. She and Henderson put in a bid for their concept and it was picked. <\/p>\n A pineapple honey spritz (left) pictured alongside a salted honey matcha (right) and a Turkish latte at La Casita Coffee at the Northwest Highway Half Price Books, Thursday, Aug. 22, 2024, in Dallas.<\/p>\n El\u00edas Valverde II \/ Staff Photographer<\/p>\n Because of the size of the space, the Deep Ellum La Casita shop will not serve brunch like the other East Dallas location inside Half Price Books<\/a>. Along with drinks, it will have La Casita Bakeshop pastries, with specialty pastries brought in on the weekends. <\/p>\n![\"The](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/MGJDLQRGHBEH7KCVLNPGBP36PQ.jpg\")
