Figure 8 Coffee Purveyors

Really enjoyed the ambiance and location of this shop! I didn’t like their Peruvian drip, so that’s why I’m giving it a 4 star. However, I definitely would be willing to come back and try their espresso drinks

Whew boy this place blew my freaking mind. Perfect experience here. Location is great. Baristas are great and friendly. Espresso was absolutely perfect when I came by. I had a cortado with their Kenya espresso and it busted through that drink beautifully. Also at 11:30 their barista was cleaning the screens on the machine and soaking the portafilter. That’s typically something you see shops do at close but it seems like they were just doing a machine maintenance to improve the draw from the machine. Absolutely excellent.

Very cute place with limited inside setting. They grind their own beans as you can see in the video. They do have free WiFi and outdoor seating!

Value - fair
Ambiance - it’s a small sitting area
Service - helpful and very fast service but it’s not a sit down service
Taste - good and very fresh
Overall - I recommend ♥️

Best Cortado of my entire trip to Texas, and the energy of the shop was great. We wanted a bag of something that wasn’t bagged yet and they were kind enough to bag it for us. Would recommend this over and over again. Sorry I ruined the art before I photographed it

Every time we visit Austin, we have to stop here! Their lattes are amazing! They have a cute outdoor spot to sit and enjoy Austin weather. Their tea is also very tasty and if choosing to “dine-in,” they give it in a little cut teapot.

So the coffee here is great. The downside was the customer service. We weren't really greeted & stood at the register waiting to order, when someone was right there at the register, it was weird.

Cute coffeeshop with an industrial vibe + wine + bulk coffee beans at the counter! UNPROMPTED the barista made us latte art with a seahorse 🥺 🌊 Just goes to show how amazing the staff is

Just went for first time. The two people ( Olive? Claire?)were very funny. They have a great chemistry I’m not a morning person but they. Made me feel welcomed. My coffee was just right I wish I lived closer. Thanks!

I have come to Austin once a year for the past 8 years, and I always stop at figure 8 at least a couple of times wile I am here. The coffee is always fantastic, and today was no acception. The issue, however, was the attitude. I wear a face mask due to medical issues I have, and as soon as I walked in the 2 girls at the counter commented about my wife and I wearing mask and laughed about it. I don't wear a mask because I want to, I wear it because I need to. I love figure 8, but I don't appreciate being made fun of, so I will likely be looking for a new regular coffee spot in Austin. Very disappointed in a place that until now has always been a must stop for me...

Update, as of December 2021. I can't believe it's been 3 years since I last stopped by this place. Then again, I was only visiting the last time and would end up moving out to Austin, shortly after my stop at this lovely place.

And yes, it's still a beautiful, and quaint place with a wonderful group of people that greet you with that Texas charm, and southern hospitality. Love it! I look forward to coming back more often, for their delicious tacos and tea.
