Stopped in for a quick bite and coffee. Staff was super nice and accommodating. Get the Sproats & Honey drink, you won't be disappointed. We live near but for reasons unknown have not stopped in. We will definitely be back again soon. read more

Another option to Radio but more urban and tied to a condo complex so clientele is different. Think young urban professionals and I'm not really sure how they afford these places... Anyhow, I've had some good smoothies from this place. Highly recommend those. They don't have decaf lattes but they do make pizzas. Again, a bit steep for what you get. All in all I prefer Austin based places and this doesn't fit what I look for but it may work for you. Regardless swing by and grab a smoothie for a treat as they are really good. read more

I just ordered a wrap through Favor for lunch. It's delicious but for an $11 price tag, shouldn't I at least get the pickle that it says it comes with? Such a rip off. How could I ever justify buying a small-to-maybe-medium sized wrap with no sides for $11 pre-tax? But tasty. read more

This is a great place to stop in and get coffee or beer, with free WiFi! The place has a good amount of parking, even though it's right off of Lamar, very convenient. Chill vibes, and well decorated. They also have a little outdoor area if you would like to bring your dog. My husband and I tried the cold brew latte (see pic), so unique and tasty! It was a bit pricey which is why I gave 4 stars. read more

Nice atmosphere, great customer service. Full coffee options, nice local Texas beers on tap. They have a good happy hour menu. Make dough and pizzas in house. The hummus is perhaps the best i town. read more

BarleyBean Coffee - Beer Bar Near Me - Austin, Texas

Everything is good here! My favorites have to be the gluten free pizza, breakfast items, kombucha, smoothies and almond milk latte. I come here once a week for business meetings or to hang out with friends. Never had bad service once! Love BarleyBean so much! read more

This place is right by my apartment which is the only reason I visit every now + then. Their coffee is good but it's a bit overpriced. They randomly have pizza which is actually tasty. I would avoid their breakfast meals, def not worth the prices they are charging. Their side of potatoes was literally 2 tablespoons of soggy potatoes. The employees who work their are pleasant. read more

I am a coffee lover so I was excited to live right next to Barley Bean. I went in for a coffee and was not disappointed with the overpriced brews. However, the service and experience can make or break a place. The service has a bit of bitterness coming from some of the employees and it's a real turn off to come back. The atmosphere inside is pleasant but the music is so loud I can't hear myself think, so get ready to bring your headphones. Overall I wouldn't recommend, I'll find a different coffee shop to grab my everyday brew. read more

Stopped in for a post dinner coffee. I had the vanilla latte which was very good. The staff was very friendly. There is also beer, wine, smoothies, paninis, pizza, wraps, salads, and breakfast items. I didn't have any food but it smelled good. I will come back to try the eats read more

Cute place, but very limited menu. I had a hard time finding something that was low carb. My bowl was mostly rice so that didn't help. It wasn't what I expected based on the menu descriptions. Our family was underwhelmed with the food. The seating is also not very comfortable. They served my son the wrong sandwich but he ate it because it took a while to get the food. I really want to like this place but they don't seem to have the customer's experience in mind. read more

I really like Barley Bean. I've been to it several times since it opened and haven't been disappointed yet. I really love Dirty Chai's and very few places (not sure why) get it right...but they get it RIGHT!! In fact, it's always so good, that I have to tell myself that I definitely do not need another one (has espresso in it)! I've had different items off their menu, but my faves so far are the Breakfast Croissant Sandwich with bacon and eggs (drool-worthy) and the Avocado and Turkey Panini (I have to remove one piece of bread when eating this because it's way too "bready" for me). I've also had their Avocado toast and it's good, not my fave, but not at all bad. The only complaint is that it's hit or miss with parking. They have very few spaces, so on a couple of occasions, I've had to just keep going on to another place instead- which stinks... read more

My fella and I had lunch here and we are so glad we gave it a try. I had the caprese panini and my guy had the turkey and avocado panini. Holy panini heaven, they were so so tasty. The bread was soft and delectable. The filling was rich and tasty. All the ingredients tasted like were fresh. It was a great tasty experience. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. I look forward to trying more things off their menu. read more

BarleyBean Coffee - Caprese Panini - Beer Bar Near Me - Austin, Texas

Coffee is great, and one of the few places that offers oatmeal milk. Nice environment, good classic rock background music. The food menu is healthy and thoughtfully prepared but just misses the mark on combinations and flavors. Example - the avocado toast had honey in the bread, which we thought didn't fit with the sundried tomatoes. Today, the wrap didn't have much flavor and the green sauce was heavy on the cumin. We'll probably come back and try their brunch menu, though, because it looks delish. read more

This place is my new go to breakfast spot when I don't feel like cooking. The service is friendly and fast, and they have so many options! I love their breakfast sandwich and vegan breakfast taco. The lavender latte with oat milk is on point too and I've had one at basically every coffee shop in Austin! read more

I love places that roast their coffee or have it down local. The cup of Joe was smooth and well balanced. Nice place with many other options for beverages and food. read more

BarleyBean Coffee - Beer Bar Near Me - Austin, Texas

This place is my prime study spot. They play music that makes it easy to learn to and easy to vibe to. The tables are wide and chairs are comfortable and instigate the learning process. Their happy hour includes beer and pizza and I am definitely taking advantage today! When I came here a few months ago I ate a mushroom swiss sandwich (no meat~because sometimes I try to be eco-friendly) and it was incredible. I want to BE as cool as this place looks inside. They even have kombucha on tap. like wtf kinda hippie voodoo magic is that?? They also have Jenga.. not big Jenga.. but you know... still pretty cool. There are two big tables with tall chairs and a couch/comfy chair area, then like 9 small rounds. Outdoors looks cool , come patio tables and a little cement area. read more

I came for Happy Hour and did not expect to get this giant pizza with my wine for a good price! If you like to just chill and read a book alone come here! Order a pizza and wine or beer and enjoy. Also, you get left overs. Worth it! read more

BarleyBean Coffee - Beer Bar Near Me - Austin, Texas

Stopped in for a quick bite and coffee with my husband. The staff was very friendly and welcoming! The barista and I have the same name so that was cool :) We ordered an iced mocha and draft late. For food we ordered the pesto presto sandwich! We took a seat over on the comfy couch and everything was ready and brought out to us within 5 minutes. The food and drinks were super delicious and i instantly knew this might be our new spot ! The atmosphere is beautiful . Great colors, art and furniture. They offer alcohol and wine by the bottle as well as sell cigarettes (don't smoke people! But for sure V convenient ). They have a nice big patio to enjoy as well as CLEAN single stall bathrooms , which are my FAVE :) The music selection was great and I felt like I could hang out there all day! The only con I have is they only have about 10-15 parking spaces, if that. I didn't have trouble finding a spot but it was 11 am on a Tuesday. I'm sure it would be much harder to park on a Friday night . We will be back very soon!! read more

Friend brought me here. They been popping up all over austin. Like the concept. Very true to their roots of being a local brand. Employees seems very knowledgable and courteous. Good choices of food and drinks. Very conveniently located on south lamar. You just cant miss it. Also found out that they do in house coffee roasting, make their own fresh breads and bakery goods. Will keep my eyes open for more locations to open up especially up north.. will recommend this place to everybody!! read more

This place has my favorite espresso in town. I don't know what they do, but it's always perfect. I love the lattes both hot and on ice. The almond milk they use is really yummy too. I've gotten calzones here twice and they are perfect. I feel like it's a great portion for the price, but I'm not a super big eater so who knows. The smoothies are yummy and honestly remind me more of slushees than smoothies. Great with a calzone. Last time I went I ordered a pizza and it was just meh. Wasn't crazy about the sauce and the dough was a little soggy. Was also talked into a large because it was somehow cheaper, but totally not worth it. I'm sticking with the calzones. Always worth stopping for the coffee tho ... read more

There are a lot of great cafes in Austin, but few with decent parking and a full menu. This had all of those things and was a great spot to meet outside on the patio under the shade. I had the avocado toast and it was very filling. The jalapeños were surprisingly spicy, which was nice. It was my first visit but I see myself returning when I need to meet up with people in the South Lamar area. read more

People love bread. People who love bread should come here. Paninis, croissant, wheat bread - all an exquisite foundation for their fresh, delicious, impeccably prepared sandwiches (haven't tried their pizza - on their own dough - but will). The few minor complaints upon their opening were immediately remedied - every time I walk in, the staff makes it clear they want to create a great experience for us. With lively music always pumpin', a decent patio, a bright sunny space, tasty coffee, and a good selection of beers, it's a perfect neighborhood cafe. On a major street, auto egress can be a challenge, but there IS some parking. Tons of adjacent condos and apartments make this their go-to. Who doesn't like seeing sexy, disheveled nearby residents first thing out of bed, craving their first sips of coffee? read more

Love this place. coffee drinks are delish, seating is plentiful and music doesn't make you feel like the oldest person at a rave. 5/5

For the life of me I can't understand why anyone would wait an hour or more for brunch at several establishments within a 5 min radius when this place is open. Food is great, coffee and smoothies are great, and the service is amazing. Nice ambience, super chill vibe, easy parking. If I had one wish, I would love to have a waffle added to the menu, but that's just me. Don't miss the paneer tacos or paninis. read more

Aloof staff and bad espresso My BF raves about the Barley Bean on Colorado and 3rd downtown. He was so excited to take me to the one closer to our home. We went on a Sunday at 530 PM there were 2 people working an neither of them cared about us being there. They had already put away the self- service half and half, and were cleaning despite not closing for another 4 hours. When I asked for cream I was given a little bit in a tiny container, so when the aloof cashier came with our food, that took 20 min despite the place being empty, she rudely asked if I wanted her to "bring the whole carton over"! Excuse me? No, thank you I told her. She did bring me more cream this time in a tumbler type glass, but there was no amount of cream that was going to fix this poorly brewed Americano I had been served. When my BF when to ask for a refill of his drink the man behind the counter replied "of what?" The staff is rude and lazy. I sent an email via their website to let them know of our poor experience before coming to Yelp but received no reply. read more

Delish! I had the vegetarian pizza, the cleanse juice, and an iced coffee. No WiFi issues, lots of seating, and surprisingly good music! This is going to be one of my new 'go to work from' spots. Also.. I believe this is a small local Austin business which is always awesome! read more

This location says that it closes at 11:00 PM. We just walked in at 10:40 PM on Saturday night and they told us the register was already closed. What a shame, we have passed by this place several times and finally decided to try it. Just lost out on the sale of at least 4 drinks. read more

This is such a wonderful spot for coffee, brunch, or anything in between! Came in on Sunday afternoon and the atmostphere was so chill and relaxed. Ordered the thai tofu bowl, scrambled tofu bowl, and a couple of iced lattes. The toasted marshmallow latte was so delicious and not overly sweet. The bowls came out promptly and were incredible! The sauce for the thai tofu bowl perfectly complimented the dish. The service was also very friendly and attentive. I would highly recommend stopping in! read more

This Barley Bean location ROCKS! Such a solid coffeeshop/cafe with delicious food and great staff.

I used to live at the 704 which is located off south lamar. The convenience of walking to breakfast with your roommate is EGGcellent. I ordered the Avocado toast and the Dirty Blues smoothie. read more

Wow ! Really good panini and drink selection!! Parking is hard but the place it self is very quality !! We got the jerk/Caribbean chicken and curry one , it's delish , the mango drink and coffee is pretty solid and refreshing read more

Really nice spot a little further south down South Lamar. About 20 beers on tap as well as breakfast, lunch, dinner, and brunch on weekends. Hit all the food varieties from pizza to salads to sandwich, and all delicious and made to order. venue itself has easy parking and fast Wifi and a TV in the corner. Open all day and respect the customer. Coffee looked great and beer is typical price but very good variety for the area. Clean atmosphere and just a friendly and enjoyable feeling while spending the day getting work done. I only had a beer and coffee in my initial few hour visit, but 100% will be back in the future to try the food which created a fantastic smell throughout. read more

Reliable coffee. Perfectly made. We had to stop after an earlier breakfast, as the previous coffee left us wanting. Barley Bean to the rescue. And they carry is milk. One of the early establishments to do so. If you're in SoLa area, and need some coffee, Barley Bean. Great build out. Contemporary, with outdoor seating as well. read more

Tried it out of curiosity because it's in my neighborhood. But this was a one and done. The eggs in my breakfast taco were cold. The draft latte was ok, nothing special. Too bad because it's convenient and parking is easy. read more

Ordered a breakfast sandwich for pickup. BIG portion size which was a nice surprise and their citrus cooler juice hit the spot in Austin's heat. Will be back for sure! read more

Right now this our favorite coffee must stop shop on the weekends. They have reasonably accommodating brunch menu, although no gluten free bread options that is an ongoing issue for my girlfriend. Hence one less star. Love the staff here. read more

I've been here a few times since it's opened and love the ambience. Nice place to get work done as there's usually a table available (and free WiFi). Their food and drink selection is awesome too. First time here I had a delicious egg bowl and the barista made me a fabulous tea drink (can't remember what it was called but it had milk, early grey and vanilla flavor). Today I had the mushroom and Swiss panini and it was yum. Good food and good service! read more

The coffee is pretty good but a bit expensive. The atmosphere is also nice with plenty of places to sit. For the most part it's pretty quite so it can be a nice place to study. read more

Wow. Been a long time since I've had such genuinely great service. The food and coffee was so good. Simple. Things I always want but can never find. Everything in Austin has gotten too complicated. This was amazing food, great service and great beer and wine selection. So happy. read more

I got a wrap and an americano with hazelnut. The coffee tasted the way chlorine smells. I'm not sure what the issue was, I'm a coffee drinker and I'm definitely not picky. But what was that?! Also my order took over an hour to prepare. I ordered around 12:30pm and didn't get it until around 2pm. I used doordash, they show you the steps and the coffee arrived hot so I know it wasn't the deliverers fault. I work for doordash so know this for sure. Pricey.. but I was looking for some nice (or at least decent) coffee/food. I won't order from there again sadly. read more
