    Almond Croissant and Maple Latte.
    Amy S.

    I've passed this place for at least a year or two never came inside. It's a moderately sized place with lovely decor. Outside patio is lovely and large. Service is fast with a variety of healthy menu items all focused on natural and organic gluten free foods down to the pastries. I orders a maple latte which was delicious and an almond croissant. Came with a friend to chat great start to our morning .

    4.5* Menu has a pretty wide variety, but sometimes you're looking up and down between the counter and board up top. The counter blackboard menu probably has a couple of specials featuring seasonal ingredients. Then when you get to the register there's another special of the day that wasn't featured anywhere else (and was blocked by other patrons standing in front of you). Not much of a service here, you pay first and then choose your seat. Weekday mornings are quite busy too with lots of ladies from workouts or just catching up. There's a small nook on the other side of the wall where you deposit your leftovers/dirty dishes. Pricing is reasonable for trying to eat healthier. If you choose to collect points, it's also fairly easy to get a cash credit quickly.

    Austin Tea Exchange has the most delicious food and drinks. It far surpassed my expectations. I tried the quiche, a turkey panini, a chocolate chip muffin, a vanilla latte, and a matcha. True story: I'll eat anything and they were all AMAZING! The ambiance was delightful and serene. It's a perfect place to go for a lunch with a girlfriend or a quaint date spot. I will definitely be back. Thank you Austin Tea Exchange. I love giving 5 star reviews and I'm a tough critic. Thanks for reading.

    I enjoy the entire staff and especially Nico who knows what I need every time. Things I have enjoyed are the Ham & Egg Croissant, Spinach Salad and my fave is the Chicken Mozzarella Sandwich. The cafe is always giving a warm hug vibe with lots of seating and great atmosphere.

    Pesto chicken sandwich

    this is such a nice spot to bring kids! they have a huge menu with so many delicious, healthy options (vegetarian choices, seed oil free, etc)! I find their quiche to be the best in the area (I'd venture as far to say the state!!) and their pesto chicken sandwich is my favorite lunch go-to. Also try their matcha, It's decadent.

    Cinnamon latte

    This is the perfect place for patio weather! Such a lovely atmosphere and delicious food. I've had the club sandwich twice now. My latte was beautiful and the yummy. Love the people, too.

    Simply outstanding! The charcuterie board that they did for Hill country indoor members happy hour was scrumptious. Meats, cheese, fruits nuts, you name it! They also have amazing Mexican coffee, several baked goods as well as healthy bowls. Do yourself a favor try this place out you won't regret it!

    This place is great for a picky diner-outer like me. Organic coffee, organic eggs, grass-fed beef. I could go on. The service was warm & friendly. This is definitely my new favorite place.

    Breakfast

    Austin Tea Xchange Café is such a great spot. The menu is very unique. I love that they have options for everyone, and the healthy options are great. My favorite is their breakfast menu; everything is always fresh, flavorful, and beautifully made. The pastries are delicious and always fresh. The café has a welcoming vibe and the staff are always friendly and helpful. There's indoor and outdoor seating, and you can always find a quiet spot if you want to get some work done. This is the perfect place. Highly recommend!

    It is supposed to be an Americano with a splash of half and half. More like half and half with a splash of coffee.

    I like the vibe here at Morning Glory. The food is good, and the service is nice…read more I came here after a dentist appointment. Was seated in about the middle of the restaurant along the wall. I love these seats cause you can see the coffee station and what's going on back there. Basically people watching. It was a little loud today, so I put on my head set and listened to some music. My server was Joyce and she was sweet. Took my order, which was breakfast tacos and a pineapple mimosa. My drink came super quick, and my food didn't take long at all. I mean like a couple minutes quick. Tacos were outstanding. And honestly as soon as I asked for a corn tortilla over the flour I thought, they're going to fall apart. But they didn't. And when you see the size of these tacos it will blow your mind that they didn't. Good corn tortilla. Scrambled eggs are fluffy, the potatoes are seasoned a little. They added bacon for me a that was chopped up inside the taco. Honestly it was a lot of food. I knew I wouldn't be able to finish it. But I did, and enjoyed every bite.

It was alot of families and friends gathering there as well as a few different people working on computers and reading. I ordered a cranberry mimosa was absolutely delicious. What really blew my mind was that the server told me we couldn't sub the toast on the breakfast plate with the tres leches French toast bc it wouldn't "taste right together". I'm now immediately put off because what kinda flavor yall have on your food to where sweet and savory don't go together. So we ordered masala chai, the mango lassi smoothie, breakfast potatoes and bacon. The chai and smoothie were both very disappointing. I love masala chai and drink it often enough to know that this chai tasted heavily watered down even thought it was freshly made. The smoothie didn't taste like mango at all, it tasted like mostly like nothing with a side of banana and oats. I wish they had the ingredients on the menu because my man wouldn't have ordered it if he knew there were bananas in it. The breakfast potatoes were pretty good after adding salt and pepper and the bacon was the best thing out of what we got. It was flavorful. Overall, not impressed with this place.

The food is consistently good, and most of the staff have always been incredibly sweet, welcoming, and helpful. That said, we had a really disappointing experience during our last visit that felt worth sharing. A younger female employee with a long dark ponytail brought our food over, I think she was a food runner - but she wasn't wearing the Vivel branded t shirt like the other employees. When my husband politely asked for ketchup, she visibly rolled her eyes before bringing it. When I then asked if I could please have a knife (I'm seven months pregnant, for context), she started to walk to get one, took two steps, turned back and said "you can go get it yourself". It felt unnecessarily rude and dismissive, especially given how quiet the café was at the time. We stayed for a while after and watched her standing by the counter organizing utensils, so it wasn't a matter of being too busy. We really like this place and will continue coming back, but this interaction stood out in a negative way and didn't reflect the level of service we've experienced before.

The space is beautifully designed -- very inviting, stylish, and comfortable. They also offer outdoor seating with umbrellas, and it's dog-friendly, which I absolutely love. It's the kind of place you can see yourself lingering for a while. I ordered the Tide Shot Chai Latte and the Margherita Pizza. Unfortunately, my first chai latte had dish soap residue in it. They explained they had just washed the dishes and sincerely apologized. To their credit, they immediately made me a fresh one. I had only taken a small sip of the first drink, so I appreciated how quickly they corrected the mistake. Now, let's talk about the pizza -- outstanding. The crust was very thin and perfectly done, the cheese was wonderful, and the balance of flavors was just right. It was a very well-executed Margherita and surprisingly filling even though it looks light and simple. Truly a perfect pizza in my opinion. For today, I'm giving four stars because of the drink mishap, but I will absolutely return. Next time I plan to try more items from the menu.

I believe the staff may be actual zombies. We came in on a quiet weekday afternoon and were barely acknowledged. No one was at the ordering station when we walked in, and when staff did appear, they seemed inconvenienced by our presence. If I'm spending $73 on two pizzas, two drinks, and a salad, I expect basic hospitality such as eye contact, a greeting, a hint of gratitude at a bare minimum. Also the pour on my prosecco was paltry. The red pepper and Parmesan shakers were smudged, sticky, and nearly empty. Details matter. As my manger said when I worked at a restaurant in my younger years, "If there's time to lean, there's time to clean". Especially in a premium location with a beautiful patio and thoughtfully designed ambiance. Let's make it tidy and welcoming, shall we? The food deserves better representation than the front-of-house is giving it. The owners have created something special. Now the staff needs to rise to that standard PRONTO. However, the ambience and the phenomenal pizza will definitely keep me coming back and I am sure they will work out the service kinks.

    I made a reservation over a week ahead of time to celebrate the birthday of one of my friends and…read morepaid the $25 deposit to hold the reservation. Our reservation was on June 11th at 7:30. We arrived at 7:32. When our party of four arrived, we were told there was no table for us. Even though there were two tables available in the dining room. We were told that those tables were reserved for someone else and we could not sit at that table. We were told that it was another reservation for 730. We were not offered any accommodation, even though there were four barstools at the bar open, except to sit outside on the patio in the 90° heat. We refused and decided to find a different place to eat. It was very shocking that they treated us in this manner as I have been a guest at the Wayback multiple times and never had this experience. It was almost like it was a prank. We went back to the car to find another restaurant to celebrate my friend's birthday. While we are making arrangements for that, I realized that I had paid $25 for this reservation that they were not honoring and I wanted to make sure I requested that be returned. I went back into the dining room at 7:50 and the table for four that they refused to sit us at was still available. Amy, the young lady who said she was "like a manager", treated us as though we had done something wrong. When I went back in and requested my $25 back from her she made some comment regarding my refund tied to whether we gave them a bad review for the incident (one of my friends as we walked out of the dining room, said she would be leaving a review). I called the main number the following day and spoke with Vicky. Vicky told me she wanted to look into the situation and figure out what had happened. I told her the intention of my call was to get my the deposit refunded. She called me back a few hours later explaining it was their fault. She said that there was another person in the restaurant that had my same name and they wanted to move from the patio to the dining room and the staff gave away our reservation to that party. Understandable. She was apologetic and told me she would take care of the refund and also offered to send me $50 gift card through Toast. I'm not even really sure how that works or what that is, but I really just wanted to close out the whole deal. No refund or Gift Card ever showed up. I know sometimes that can take a little bit of time so I waited until the 25th and called back. No one answered. I left a message and did not get a returned call. I called again at about 11 AM on the 26th again no answer. I did not leave another message. I called again around 4pm. Amy, the young lady we dealt with on the evening of the event, answered the phone. She said the people in the office had already left for the day and she would take my phone number and name and somebody would call me on Monday. She called me back about 30 minutes later telling me she needed the card number that the reservation was made under. I didn't really feel comfortable giving that to her so I just said I would wait to hear from the office staff on Monday. Well no one called on Monday. No one called on Tuesday either. I called in on Wednesday and spoke with Vicky again. She said she had gone out of town and doesn't know why the refund was not taken care of. She said she was needed some time to look into it. I asked her to call me back when she had some resolution. I did not hear back from Vicky but today I got an email from toast that a $25 refund to my credit card had been run.... and I never provided my card number to have that refund issued. I do not take any pleasure in writing a bad review for a business. I waited to write this review until there had been full resolution so I gave them plenty of opportunities to communicate clearly and make this situation right. It kept getting fumbled which leaves me with the impression that they don't care about customer service.

    We were extremely disappointed with our experience. We arrived for our confirmed reservation only…read moreto be told that the restaurant had double-booked and could not seat us. While mistakes happen, what was most frustrating was how the situation was handled. The staff showed little concern for the inconvenience caused and made no meaningful effort to make things right. There was no attempt to find a solution, accommodate us in another way, offer an alternative time, or show any sense of urgency in resolving the issue. Instead, we were essentially left with no options and had to leave. A reservation is an agreement between the restaurant and its guests. When the restaurant fails to honor that commitment, the least customers should expect is an apology and a genuine effort to resolve the problem. Unfortunately, we received neither. The lack of customer service, accountability, and professionalism was disappointing and left a very negative impression. We had been looking forward to our evening, but instead walked away feeling like our business was not valued at all.
