Stopped by the other day, I'm from out of town. I love supporting local shops. My husband and I…read moreboth got iced lattes and we really enjoyed them! Smooth & bold and perfectly sweet. The house made syrups are a non negotiable for me, and thankfully they offer those. In a really cool spot with a vintage store near by and michelin star recognized taco place next door. Is it pricey? It's not cheap, but you're paying for quality and house made offerings. I'm willing to support places that honor their craft, I'd rather do that than pay almost similar prices at Starbucks ‍

Ok I want to start off with all the good- syrup is delicious, coffee is well made and service is…read moregreat. Super friendly employees who genuinely make you feel welcome. The butterscotch flavor was perfectly sweet and creamy. I cannot however get over the fact that this was over $8. I def will pay money for coffee but this was such a small amount for a price like that. Love the area and would possibly come back but price is the only thing holding me back.

Great salads and teas…read more But absolutely maddening experience on almost every visit. Run out of things early in the day. Get served in plastic, not glass. Self-service ordering, via an ordering platform that takes substantially more time to figure out than had they taken our order themselves. (We ordered two things last week (which we've ordered often, for years) and the staff needed to help us with both, which they acknowledged was confusing on their platform to even them.) All easy fixes, but they seem to be working towards a less customer-oriented experience. Please raise prices rather than degrade the experience. We want you to last for the long haul!

Civil Goat Coffee is a cute cafe in Austin with great lattes and tasty eats. I went with a large…read moregroup and their outside picnic tables were perfect for accommodating us. There is also a small dog park right next door, so that kept us entertained throughout our visit. Since I used their QR code for ordering, which was attached to our table, I didn't have much interaction with the employees. But my order was ready quickly and delivered to me smoothly. I ordered a small hot latte with honey and the Smashed Avocado with added poached egg. I was very impressed by both of these items! The latte had perfectly steamed milk and just the right level of sweetness. And I always appreciated beautiful latte art. The toast was super satisfying and it incorporated a variety of interesting flavors. The walnut pesto and balsamic glaze gave the dish a zesty zing, but it was balanced nicely by the avocado and expertly poached egg. I loved Civil Goat Coffee and, if I were local, I would absolutely revisit! Highly recommend!

Came on a Saturday so there's a bit of a wait but good coffee is worth it. Tried one of their seasonal lattes- The Burn Ban. It was the perfect smoky and sweet combo.

Service was quick, but felt like I was bothering them by coming in. Ordered the Avena latte that came with cayenne pepper, when asked how much, just a dash was described. Was given wayyyy more than a dash and honestly overpowered the drink. Resembled hot sauce more than coffee to me. Suggest skipping the cayenne pepper!

I ordered the smoke salted maple latte, which was really tasty. I appreciate Intelligentsia being…read moreone of the older third wave coffee shops and genuinely like their beans. The location is super convenient if you're downtown or visiting the library. If you're driving in, parking does seem to be a bit of a problem. I don't drive DT so it doesn't affect me, but thought it'd mention it so ppl are aware. A lot of places downtown will require you to pay to park and walk a bit depending on how busy it is. Overall, service was great and the drinks were solid.

I had the spinach feta danish pastry, which was outstanding! Tip - they heat up their pastries upon request - I definitely recommend this. I also enjoyed a seasonal iced rose latte. Their drinks do lean on the sweeter side so just something to keep in mind. After the show we returned for a beer to escape the heat. They had an impressive selection of unique, "Michelin star" beers on tap. I tried the Japanese lychee beer and loved it! Servers are so friendly. I highly recommend this spot!

It's one of the few spots where you don't feel rushed, which makes it easy to stay for a while. Also, I think it's open 24 hours! I appreciate that they have a solid lineup of Cookies/pastries and snacks to go with your drink. It's not overly fancy, just reliable in the best way. Great spot for some people watching, I saw some great outfits.. and believe there's a vintage shop next door if you feel the need to spruce up to fit in hahaha. Overall, a great go-to Austin staple for a reason. Great for getting work done or just hanging out, any time of day or night.

Sweetwaters Coffee & Tea is a unique spot!…read more Located off Guadalupe Street. Street parking seems to be the name of the game (or, that's where I parked). The venue itself is spacious, offering a nice modern aesthetic and vibe. Plenty of tables to sit and enjoy your beverage/telework. I ordered the French Vietnamese Au Lait and it was delicious! Flavorful and not too sweet. Definitely hit the spot and gave me a bit of nostalgia of ordering coffee at Cafe Du Monde in NOLA. Free WiFi after purchase, a generous rewards program (15 points for signing up, 60 points for a free drink), and 10-15% for first UT-students/ responders/ state employees. Definitely recommend and will come back!

Hidden gem downtown!…read more LOTS of drinks and light breakfast options. Was initially just going to get a latte, but made a last minute decision to get the quiche and so glad I did! Got it toasted (highly recommend) the crust is light and flaky. Generous amount of fluffy egg topped with spinach and little pieces of artichoke. Enjoyed that it wasn't huge chunks of it. Now the large latte is HUGE. I went with 3 shots of espresso instead of the four it comes with. Wasn't expecting much, but the beans they use are very flavorful and was pleasantly surprised! Bonus points for many a few different SF options. I lucked out on parking - got a front row street parking spot. Could see it being difficult during busy times, but there are also parking garages nearby if street parking is slim. Overall, loved the place and felt the prices were fair.

Radio Rosewood wants to keep the party going all day and late into the night, offering food outside of "goes with coffee" and a beautifully appointed bar. Having said this, I just needed coffee, so my review is going to focus on that. The featured coffees here are roasted by their own RCB Roasters, and my selection was their Ethiopian Guji, promising some nice acidity and brightness from its lighter leaning roast profile. The coffee "space" is compact here, but they're using good gear and seem to have the staff to use it well. My espresso was served with sparking water, and was just as I'd hoped, a bright cup with citrus acidity that was well structured, but not overly acidic or bitter at all. It was a winner all around. I'll have to get back in for an adult beverage on my next visit, but I was pleased to see that us coffee lovers can still get a good "fix" here!
