Austin Point is officially home to your new favorite hangout spot. Honor Society at The 1824 is now open daily from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., serving up a delicious menu of coffee, food, and other specialty drinks.
Located at 4805 North Star Trail in Richmond, Honor Society at The 1824 brings artisanal coffee, grab-and-go bites, and a welcoming neighborhood atmosphere to the heart of Austin Point. Whether you’re grabbing a quick drink, settling in for a remote work session, or meeting friends on the patio, Honor Society is ready to be part of your everyday routine.
The opening also marks Honor Society’s first expansion since launching its original Tomball café in 2022. Founded by Billy and JoJo Schiel after years of roasting and serving coffee, Honor Society brings its passion for craft coffee, warm hospitality, and locally inspired character to Fort Bend County.
“We knew that if we wanted to take Honor Society to the next level, it would have to be in a place like Austin Point where we can make a real impact as part of the daily energy,” said Billy Schiel, Co-Founder of Honor Society Coffee Co. “Austin Point is building the future of Fort Bend County, and it feels really special for Honor Society to be involved from the very beginning.”
Built for Coffee, Conversation, and Connection
Honor Society at The 1824 offers a full menu of specialty coffee drinks, teas, matcha, cold brew, espresso beverages, and seasonal creations alongside a food menu built for both grab-and-go convenience and longer stays.
Guests can expect signature drinks like the Salty Texan – a sweet-and-salty espresso favorite topped with cinnamon – plus specialty lattes like Flannel Weather, Flower Power, Pretty in Pink, and Coco Loco. The menu also includes fresh salads, paninis, breakfast tacos, baked goods, and Honor Society’s irresistible coffee cake.
And more is on the way. Beer and wine service is expected to be added later this summer, expanding Honor Society at The 1824 into an even more versatile space for the Fort Bend community.
“It’s easy to say a place is community-oriented, but Austin Point is actually building the physical environment for that to happen,” said Billy. “People want spaces outside of home and work where they can gather and feel more connected to one another. That’s what Honor Society has always been about.”
Events Are Already Brewing
Honor Society at The 1824 is opening alongside a growing calendar of community programming designed to bring residents, visitors, and the broader Fort Bend community together throughout the year. Many of these experiences will center around The 1824, celebrating its role as one of Austin Point’s primary gathering places.
The first major public event is Coffee & Cars on Saturday, June 13 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., featuring classic and vintage cars, unique electric vehicles, live music, tours of The 1824 and Austin Point’s 12 model homes, and fresh coffee and specialty drinks available for purchase from Honor Society.
Coffee & Cars will also launch All-In Austin Point, a new public event series featuring food, drinks, music, activities, and opportunities to experience the energy of Austin Point firsthand.

- August 15 – The AP Variety Show: A family-friendly entertainment event showcasing live performances and another exciting use of The 1824’s growing event space.
“At the end of the day, we care about bringing people together,” said Billy. “If we become a place where neighbors meet for the first time, families create memories, and friends reconnect over a great cup of coffee, then we’ve done our job.”

A New Chapter for The 1824
The opening of Honor Society at The 1824 adds another major milestone as Austin Point continues evolving into one of Fort Bend County’s most ambitious new master-planned communities.
While Austin Point’s long-term vision will ultimately be home to 50,000 residents, communal spaces like The 1824 and local businesses like Honor Society help make the community feel active and connected from the start. Austin Point is intentionally creating destinations where people can spend time, build relationships, and feel part of something larger.
And now, that experience officially includes coffee.
