Luby's has entered the coffeehouse business.
The Houston-based company, best known for cafeterias, has opened its first What's Brewing coffeehouse concept at 1301 Fannin downtown. What's Brewing opened in early February.
Todd Coutee, vice president of culinary services at Luby's, said the company plans to open its second What's Brewing in Kelsey-Seybold Clinic on Holcombe in late summer and a third location at Lone Star College in Spring in the fall.
The What's Brewing downtown is across from the South Texas College of Law. The coffeehouse serves Seattle's Best coffee beverages, salads, sandwiches and desserts and pastries. Baked goods are made on site.
