Limeade Matcha
Rebecca P.

Civil goat had a good space to work remotely in, with pretty art and good vibes. They had a lot of food options (the egg toast with bacon jam on it was phenomenal). Their seasonal drinks are always great, I got the limeade matcha, it was refreshing and light.

While there are now two Civil Goats in East Austin, drive the extra ten minutes and come to this one instead. Why? There's a private lot (albeit small, but I've always had luck finding parking), plenty of outdoor seating options to choose from (shaded spots, tables on the dirt, patio seating, or wide-open under the blue sky) plus a fair amount of indoor seating as well, and even a dog park! Sadly, no actual goats at this location. They serve both food and drinks, but the few times I've had their lattes, they are pretty much standard for good, but the food... unreal. I constantly rave about how addictive their specialty Soft Scramble is. Their Soft Scramble ($14) comes with buttery scrambled eggs with chives, a refreshing arugula salad, and a protein of your choice. No question, GET THE HASH-SAUSAGE!! I never order scrambled eggs at restaurants because my thought process is: I can make them at home...but Civil Goat broke that rule for me. Also, I'm a big fan of the Cuerny Sam ($12) when I'm craving the perfect breakfast croissant sammie. WARNING: Use the dog park at your own discretion--the fencing is makeshift and big dogs or high jumpers can easily clear it.

Really cute place. At first glance it looks like a house until you step inside. Free wi-fi & water fill station Their drinks are soooo good. We ordered a Dirty Chai w/reg milk and a regular latte which were both flavorful. the employees were definitely approachable and friendly.

Cajeta Cappuccino
Nimish M.

Pretty good cappuccino and nice vibes. Maybe skip the matcha because it looks like they use a squeeze bottle.

Smashed Avocado w/ added poached egg
Cara P.

Civil Goat Coffee is a cute cafe in Austin with great lattes and tasty eats. I went with a large group 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!

Mocha and matcha latte
Roshini T.

Really enjoyed civil goat! They have a really cute interior with plentiful seating including a bar area as well as tables. The mocha was tasty but I feel like I've had tastier mochas elsewhere. My friend enjoyed the matcha latte but felt that it was more granulated at the bottom. We both enjoyed the ambiance but not sure we'd return for the coffee alone

Matcha Latte Iced ($5)
Wendi K.

Dog friendly coffee shop with delicious healthy bites. There is plentiful outdoor and indoor seating. There is even a dog park next to the outdoor seating area. I had the Green Eggs and Ham Toast ($11.50) and BF had the croissant sandwich ($12). The croissant sandwich looked incredible! I enjoyed my toast, it was very unique and crunchy. The Matcha Latte ($5) was nice. I would love to come back and try the acai bowls! Staff were awesome :)

Outdoor seating

So....first of all, there are no prices on the menu and there is a "wellness" charge of 16% automatically added to the bill. Our payout for our meal was a little over $40 (with the wellness charge). Upon researching this fee, the web says it goes to support workers health benefits and should not replace tips with standard wellness fees typically 1-3%. That being said, service was good, food and coffee good. I personally like to know prices prior to ordering and any extra charges before the fact. It is a quaint little neighborhood breakfast joint. I had a hard time with stars, kids like the goats...

I really like this location a lot. The dog park is probably the best thing ever if I'm being honest. Our little guy loves running around and playing ball here. It's a very clean and spacious yard for furry friends. Secured with a gate. Picnic table inside the yard so humans can enjoy their food and beverages. The various coffee we've had is always stellar. I'm partial to a perfect cappuccino and it's pretty darn close here. I've bought the house blend packaged beans as gifts for coffee snobs and they've raved about the flavor!

JD J.

Coffee is delicious, and although they don't have a robust breakfast menu, they hit what they do have out of the park. My croissant sandwich was 11/10. Not a ton of indoor seating, but if you're cool with sitting outside and getting your Vitamin D in, there's plenty of outdoor options

Waiting for his treats!

I love civil goat coffee! The manor road establishment does not have the actual goat however this settles my dogs who like coming with as I enjoy great coffee, amazing breakfast sandwiches, and relax as I people watch with a book in hand. I could spend the day here if it wasn't for having too many cups of delicious coffee! They have a small tv that plays old vhs tapes to round out the local vibe of hipster cool. They orders arrive promptly as well with a number to secure your order. The staff is pretty cool and well informed in the menu. They do seem to keep staff which is nice for those wanting to be recognized as regulars. Did I say dogs? They are pet friendly and the fuzzy guys really like how the dog bowls quench their thirst and they can relax on the cold concrete floor inside, the wooden patio, or the grass in the small fenced area.

Açaí bowl
Lola M.

Civil Goat is a cute coffeehouse offering breakfast and lunch on Burnet Road near downtown Austin. Yelpers love the lincoln's açaí bowl and avocado toast! Also has a small dog area in the outside sitting areas, as well as indoor seating.

Lucy J.

Coffee and breakfast spot close to UT. Staff were very friendly, recommended the breakfast croissant , it was Delicious! Plenty of people work from the cafe, it's a quiet and pleasant place for sure.

I was in Austin a few weeks ago to see some friends who live there now. When one of my friends and…read morehis wife found out where I was staying, they told me that the Air B&B I was staying in was close to Radio Rosewood, and that I should check them out. I did, and fortunately, Radio was walking distance from where I was staying. I prefer tea over coffee, and the black tea did absolute wonders for me. I loved that they offered a free refill on drinks, because that caffeine helped me stay alert and awake after some mild jet lag and for all the things I was looking forward to doing during the day. Since my friends had to work, I had time for myself during the day, and getting my caffeine fix helped me with the day. The place is not too loud, aside from customers placing orders and the drinks being made and the music playing. The staff was really helpful and friendly. I 100% recommend this place to anyone passing through Austin, moving to Austin, or whatever else.

We stopped at Sour Duck Market before a concert at the Moody Center and it ended up being such a…read moregreat choice. We got there during happy hour, which runs daily from 3-6, and had the burger and fries along with the open-faced summer sando. Both were amazing- the burger was so good, and the summer sando was fresh, flavorful, and a nice lighter option. We also shared a bottle of rosé, which was perfect before heading to the show. They also have a really large outdoor patio, which gives the whole place such a relaxed, casual Austin feel and makes it a great spot to hang out when the weather is nice. I also love that they have an in-house bakery and make so much from scratch. Everything we had was delicious, the atmosphere was great, and we'll definitely be back.

Okay, so this is my updated review for Sour Duck! I went back with some friends for book club and…read moreeasily found parking in the small back lot! It was busy but I just got lucky. In the past you could show up and find a table outside! Sadly that is no longer the case there was a line wrapped around the door so there was a wait for both indoor and outdoor seating but once our names were on the list we were seated inside quickly. I ordered the happy hour burger which was $6, incredible price but I found the burger sauce to be overly sour! It needed some sweetness to balance it out. The fries were good but definitely over seasoned. The HONEY CAKE was incredible!!! Just a delicious fall day in a dessert. Cinnamon, fluffy whipped layers of cream, with crumble on top--PERFECTION. The sour dough loaf it was delicious too! Friend and I got it to go. I feel like the bread is fairly priced at $7 for a loaf. Service was much better this time around and although they were extremely busy my food and drink came out quickly. I ordered the Apple cinnamon daiquiri (tasted like an apple tini) $6 on HH! It's tiny and packs a PUNCH! I could only finish half of it but then again I'm a light weight so go try it for yourself! The kids are still an issue running around unsupervised but all around it was a very pleasant experience!

Cute neighborhood bookshop :)…read more Lots of community events for adults and kids. There's always something for everyone. They carry a lot of book titles and if they don't have it in store, you can order online as well. They also sell notebooks, cards, merch, and lots of knick knacks. Seating inside can be limited but there's lots of outdoor seating too. There's a parking lot across the street if the parking lot next door is full and they also have lots of neighborhood parking. Overall, great place to browse books, stationary, read, and grab a drink!

There was also a semi-small outdoor area that promoted or facilitated an area for people to converse. There was books on the inside and I must say... its like a more local, mini startup of a bookstore like FOX, Borders or Barnes and nobles. You have books and a coffee shop. They had some pastries and very little amount of edibles but the Dirty chai was wonderful! It was not so sweet where your teeth is about to decay with every sip! Although, it was still premixed with sugar... Now... The ambiance was lovely. It was a quiet kind of charm and, can be peaceful. In short, overall: Parking 3/5 Customer service: 5/5 Price: 3/5 Quality: 4/5 Grade: A Definitely worth a visit!
