Down the road from our air bnb this place was great! The coffee was really smooth. Was happy the gentleman was able to make me my favorite flat white. We loved all the different chairs inside. I did not see outdoor seating I am not sure though. They say 24 hours on the sign but when we were there the hours were 6am-6pm. Great little neighborhood coffee shop. Did not get to try any of the food.

Sitting inside here at age 33 made me feel ancient. You look around and it's literally nothing but UT students with laptops in front of them but on their phones. There is a sign on the door encouraging masks regardless of vaccination status but nobody wore them -- but the people working there did, which is appreciated! I've seen a few complaints on here, the first about the music being too loud but I personally thought it was great. If not for the music it would have been as quiet as a tomb in there. Seriously. Nobody was in there to talk, legit all students on their laptops. The other complaint was about baristas but the two that I had were perfectly pleasant! Mocha was tasty, but I'm not a big coffee drinker so I might not be the best judge of this. I'm deducting a full star for the DECOR though. Bro, what is happening with this furniture??? It's like thrift store assorted. And not in the charming way of like a Spider House Cafe kind of way, more in a someone went to a Goodwill and said I'll take everything kind of way. Place looks like a common room at a community college which might be fitting considering the clientele. There was a nice little outdoor patio area lit by string lights that I imagine would be nice in warmer weather. Overall, yeah I'd go back, but it's a specific kind of vibe.

This is a great place to get some work done. The employees are very friendly and always happy to help. It was my first time visiting and this has to be the best service I have gotten at coffee shop. I got the Iced Bennu Coffee, it was absolutely delicious, you can taste the hints of pecan, well balanced. It was not too sweet and not too bitter. It was the perfect iced coffee. They also have a cool system where they give you codes for wifi! The wifi is very fast. You can be very productive here, the atmosphere is great as well. 10/10. Worth checking it out and getting some work done. Great coffee and great service!

Iced Bennu was great but sweet, next time I'd go for an Iced Blennu
Peanut butter cup good (very sweet)

Super dog friendly and even gave a free pup cup!

9/10

Ice coffee was good, but could have been a bit stronger for my taste. Ordered med sugar free vanilla latte with almond milk, for $6.22.

Stopped by for something cold and sweet to drink. Got an Iced Bennu and liked it a lot. Friendly service and nice atmosphere.

This place is a gem! My husband and I are from out of town and truly enjoyed our visit! I got The Raven iced mocha and it was so good! The vibe is very relaxed, the seating is comfortable, and the lighting was perfect. Would definitely visit again!

my favorite study spot in austin! there is a lot of seating (though it fills up quickly -- be there early or late!) and the coffee is really good! you do have to buy something to get wifi (for 3 hours) but they have refills for some drinks at 1-2 dollars. the vibes are very earthy and dark and good music is always playing! they also have late hours so you can study for a long time there!

This place was expensive garbage. They were out of nearly all their food, so we got two sandwiches they had left. My caprese had two measly slices of mozzarella on it for 8 bucks, the outside was hard hot old bread & when I bit into it, the little cheese and tomatoes fell out completely frozen. I didn’t eat any of it. My partner’s sandwich was also gross but not as old and not as frozen. We ended up spending nearly 40 bucks at this place for straight trash. When paying with card, you’re prompted to tip, the lowest being 15% unless you type in otherwise. This is wild. As someone who used to be in food service, this is so obnoxious to me. I know these baristas are making more than the customary $2.75/hr that food workers usually make and to prompt such a gratuity before you have your food or drink seems rather dishonorable. If all you’re looking for is to sit for hours & have a coffee, this place is probably alright. Anything beyond, go somewhere else.
