Staff are super friendly and the atmosphere is casual, hip and lovable. It's a great place to catch up with friends or have a casual meeting. The coffee is flavorful but even with extra shots I found my latte to be a little weaker than I like. I had The Flat as breakfast with my coffee, and it was flavorful, fun, but a total mess to eat. Grab those napkins, because the runny yolk will try and dribble! Overall, a wonderful change and local business to support over your national chains. read more

Driving from Waco to Lockhart and was in need of a coffee pick-me-up. Found street parking easily. They sell lunch items and a large variety of coffee and teas. You can also purchase tea items such as kettles and tea. They also seek burlap sacks. I ordered a iced pumpkin and vanilla latte and my husband ordered a regular drip coffee. We each ordered a muffin for the road which was warmed before being handed to us. The pumpkin and vanilla flavor in my iced coffee was so punchy and delicious. It was like a slice of pumpkin pie in a cup. Highly recommend a stop here! read more

This is one of my favorite local spots! Great coffee & tea options with delicious tacos too! The ambiance is great, especially if you work remotely and want to get out of the house this is a great place to work and change up the view. read more

Our server, Sophie, was amazing!! And our tacos were quite yummy! A very cute atmosphere. Definitely give this place a visit!

Excellent selection of coffees, lattes and loose/full leaf teas. There were so many choices of teas. We had their: - Oat Latte - was very good - Ginger Coconut - Chai (loose leaf) latte with oat milk - the aroma when they opened the amístese was so pleasant it makes you want to keep your nose in there (lol). Definitely great for coffee, lattes and teas but didn't care for their tacos or chips much. By the time we visited, we had already hit two other spots with amazing tacos. The only tacos we ordered were the fish tacos and it wasn't great. We ordered chips, but they were quite greasy and from a bad. Not made in house but either way the y were too greasy. This is why I gave it 3 stars. However, this doesn't mean the other tacos mentioned in other reviews aren't good. We will be back and look forward to giving those a try as well and changing how many stars I gave. As for the the location it's in a great historic area. The cafe is quaintly decorated. I love the seating arrangement with sofas, tables and reg chairs all around truly making it very comfy while enjoying your food and beverage. I can see myself working out of this cafe for a few hours. Staff were always friendly, truly adding to the experience no matter if the fish tacos weren't that great (lol). We look forward to our next visit. read more

The ambiance is stunning, the staff were very kind and attentive, it's clean and well organized. Very nice place. The food was fantastic, the pulled lamb in a mango pepper sauce was to die for and the coffee was good. Very good lamb for a local place, very impressed. read more

This is not the conventional tacos you are used to! Nice place with a very nice and relaxing atmosphere, they have a variety of different delicious tacos and the lamb tacos is a must try.

I tried the peach flavor and it was really good. You must visit the place while you are here and I'm sure that you gonna love it. read more

Great atmosphere, great service, and great coffee! Best place in Belton to get coffee.

What a wonderful find!...such a lovely restaurant with a very eclectic food. The coffee was great too, in such a lovely, relaxing atmosphere. Friendly service. Love this cafe! Highly recommend. I also recommend it to anyone heading from Fort Worth to Austin to stop over for lunch. read more

Traveling for work & this recommendation did not disappoint!! It is immaculately cute when you walk in. There's something for everyone. Coffee, amazing pastries, a massive assortment of teas, a pool table, 3 levels of seating and couches. The coffee was unbeatable, service was a dream. I don't know how they manage to pack so much stuff into a deceivingly spacious room, and feel so intimately small. This coffee shop alone could make me move here. 10/10. A hidden gem! read more

Arusha is a fun little spot in downtown Belton. I would say the tacos + tea combination are a bit odd but separately, they are delish! Tacos are very unique and boast terrific flavors! Do not sleep on the queso, either! read more

I absolutely love going to Arusha's. First off, their coffee is rich and full-bodied and they roast their own beans! Their tacos are pretty good too, and I like that the staff always have something to recommend if I don't know what to get. A couple of times I've gone and known what a drink is called at Starbucks but not what was in it and they were able to recreate a drink to be similar! Their prices are on-par with any other small coffee shop and are definitely cheaper than Starbucks for better quality. And let me tell you about the atmosphere. The owner has obviously taken so much care cultivating a calming yet inspiring environment and the decor and music are quirky and off-best but not distracting. I LOVE going here to study. I'm in grad school and always need a place to go with wifi and seating. I love they always have space, it's never packed, but I'm never the only one there and it's never awkward. I like sitting up on the upper balcony so I can see everything! If you get cold easily, I would bring a sweater, but I'm warm-blooded so I'm always comfy there. Overall, would highly recommend! I always take guests from out of town here to hang out when we need to fill an hour or two in between activities. read more

This was my first vaccinated in-restaurant experience in a year and I'm delighted that I chose Arusha! The coffee was fresh and strong. We got the flat breakfast taco. While we had to wait a fair bit for the food, the tacos were so tasty!! Hot, flavorful, unique. We got a shrimp taco to go, and it was fantastic. Spicy and flavorful. Half the staff and half the customers had no masks. Staff extremely warm and friendly. It was a positive experience! I will definitely be back! read more

Coffee and tacos are such an interesting combination. Have been here several times for coffee and it's always good. The cheesecake was delicious. read more

Nice place to have a coffee and get some work done or hang out with friends. Would definitely go back.

My entire family enjoys Arusha. Great drinks and deserts. We enjoy a relaxing meet up with with my adult children.

I'm surprised....totally surprised. Came here to try out coffee on a Tuesday and found out it was $2 taco day. I had to try it out. I ordered the Sha, recommended by the young lady behind the counter and my friend ordered the Mexican and the Mardigras tacos. I come from a land of wonderful tacos, and these were just as good or better! Im totally impressed by the execution of the taco and by the fresh ingredients. Hello flavor town! Oh we also enjoyed an iced latte and iced salted caramel latte, perfect sweetness per my friend. Also enjoyed a slice of cake and coffee cake, super delicious. So looking forward to trying the souffle and making my through the other tacos. I was hesitant to try their tacos, but I'm so glad I did! Also, staff is friendly, the place has a nice vibe, and is kept clean, which is super important to me. read more

We found this place when looking for a coffee place to ride to on our motorcycle and thought it looked cute from the pictures. Well, the pictures don't do it justice at all! It is the most adorable little coffee/tea/taco/all-sorts-of-other-food place! Sadly, their food options don't include much in the way of gluten-free or dairy-free, but they do offer several dairy-free milk options for coffee, and the coffee was delicious! We will definitely be back here! read more

What can I say. This is such a cute shop! They have a great selection of loose teas. They let you smell all of the teas you want before you make a selection. The owner was great and made me a deal so I got a discount on my two teas. They also have some delicious looking baked goods on the case. They are well known for the tacos. If you haven't been here you need to come ASAP! read more

Great coffee. Great food. Great atmosphere. Cute old building & decor. Would definitely recommend it.

I love this place and go as often as I can! I love seeing such diverse customers in such a small town! The owner is a very good business man and has a heart of gold! I've only had coffee drinks and pastries, but their tacos are pretty popular. It's a great place to hang out for awhile. It feels like a community anchor. read more

A great little coffee shop to impress a first date. Not only do they tables and chair, there is also a nice upstairs area. For us older folks they have some couch's downstairs. I love this joint. read more

I will say that the iced coffee was good, the iced tea lemonade was average at best, but the winner was the large piece of plain cheesecake. This was delicious and well worth having again. The cash area is cramped, the sporks are in a container, not wrapped, handle down and one of the ones I pulled out had an old coffee stain on the spork. They have a pool table in the middle of the store which is impossible to play if there are customers in there since they have to walk past the table to get to the cashier. Also, if you are playing, you will hit people with the cue and have your butt in their face since there are tables around it. The furniture is in dire need of being recovered since it is all shabby and worn badly. I don't think that I will be going back and don't really recommend this place. read more
