    I'll be honest--at first, I thought this place looked a little too pretty to produce really good coffee. I was wrong. The coffee was excellent--fresh, smooth, and not bitter at all. The staff was pleasant and knowledgeable, which made the experience even better. One thing that really stood out was that they offered to steam my half-and-half to help keep the drink warm. I had never thought of that before, but it made a noticeable difference and is a small touch that sets them apart. The interior also has some really nice artistic elements that add to the overall vibe. Definitely a spot I'd recommend--and one I'll be coming back to.

    Place is a little small but there's lots of seating outside as well. We were thankfully able to snag a small table to seat myself, my husband, my toddler, and park our baby's carrier. The line was long and drinks took some time but they were fantastic! I had the iced cookie butter latte with cookie butter cold foam, my husband had an iced banana latte with banana cold foam, and my toddler had a vanilla oatmilk babyccino. Everyone loved their drinks! We'll definitely be back next time we're in San Antonio!

    This was a cute little spot. The service was quick and friendly. I also got a blueberry muffin that was yummy. My coffee was a little bitter, but I think that's more my preference on the coffee bean than anything. The coffee was beautiful and the interior was super clean and minimalist. I'm visiting the area but I enjoyed seeing that locals were meeting for coffee with friends and working from the coffee shop. A great mix.

    3rd Visit and can't say enough about the outstanding service! In addition the aim to please is ~Always the Goal! Assuring upon ordering if your order is not satisfactory they are happy to correct or remake. All their Syrups as previously mentioned as concocted in house, and Delectably Delish!

    Brown butter pumpkin perfection.

    This coffee shop is tucked away in a corner of Huebner Oaks shopping center. It gets busy. There have been several times where I've opted out because you can see how busy it is inside. I did make it on very early one morning and the vibe was peaceful and relaxing. I definitely got my Zen before merging into the morning traffic. I ordered a brown butter pumpkin latte (yes, I'm very late writing this, as this was a seasonal offering I believe) and a cortado. It was before 7 am and I needed the sustenance to go vote. The coffee was nothing short of amazing. The brown butter pumpkin was smooth, creamy, and full of warning spices. The cortado was well balanced and a perfect addition to cut the sweetness of the pumpkin drink. I also thought it was extremely thoughtful that, although my cortado, took a bit to make, the barrista advised that she was having trouble getting a good steam and brought it out once she got it right. And it was perfect. We tried coming in before heading out of town one day, but it was so busy and we were so short on time, we ended up stopping at a coffee cart that was set up down the street. It definitely didn't meet the mark that Early Bird set for me. I'll have to pop in again before my workday starts.

    This places gets so busy!!! Keep that in mind if you are wanting to camp out and get some work done. I got the matcha with oat milk which was pretty expensive and I wasn't super impressed. The baked goods looked beautiful but I was told they were just okay. Good location and really nice people though!

    biscoff cookie w espresso affogato
    Hannah D.

    Everything was delicious! My favorites were the biscoff cookie butter w espresso affogato, everything croissant and almond croissant. Long line but moves fast and worth the wait. Service was excellent, great recommendations, and they even brought our beverages and food out to us. Great seating indoors and outdoors. Will definitely come back to read a book or do some work!

    Berry matcha
    Tabby C.

    This cafe was super cute and very aesthetic! A good place to come for a quick drink or to do some work. The very berry matcha tastes soooo good! Their purées tasted super fresh and the matcha balanced well with the flavors. The iced cookie butter latte was super creamy, highly recommend for anyone who loves biscoff! The service was super quick and staff was very friendly. Will definitely be coming back again especially to grab another cup of the very berry matcha!

    Very good coffee and great syrup & milk options. Delicious matcha options too. On a weekday at 9:30am, it was incredibly packed. The line moved at a snails pace and then after we ordered we had to wait about 10 more minutes. I enjoyed the drink quite a bit, but I'd suggest going on a day off or when you aren't on a timed schedule, because we ended up being late to work. The tables were all taken with people camping out with computers, so there wasn't anywhere to sit and wait for our order. The person who took our order was incredibly nice and patient with the large crowd. The baristas were quiet and focused trying to get the drinks out as quickly as they could. The pricing is the only thing that might have me skipping this place for another coffee shop. You are looking at $9-10 for a single drink before the tip. Very steep compared to other local shops.

    Great little coffee shop in a mall that has some great tenants...

    It's great to see "Early Bird Coffee" land in a permanent home after years of serving customers from their food truck near REI. They've brought the same passion and quality to this new space--and elevated it even further. Huebner Oaks has had its ups and downs over the years, but with strong anchors like REI and Old Navy, and now the new Trader Joe's, this destination is clearly going to be on everyone's list of places to go. Early Bird picked the perfect time and place to plant roots. Tucked in the back with easy, free parking, the café has a clean, modern design, a comfortable indoor space, and a charming patio that invites you to linger. The vibe is European espresso bar meets San Antonio cool... complete with skilled baristas who take their craft seriously. (See pic) The cappuccino was nicely crafted, a tough drink to get right, and the blueberry scone hit that rare balance: not too sweet, not too crumbly. Perfect match with the not too sweet cappuccino. Super friendly management and engaging servers. Brought order to table... After years of being a local favorite on wheels, Early Bird Coffee has found a great spot to put down roots. This will definitely be my go-to coffee spot in the new, revived Huebner Oaks scene.

    I didn't know much about this place but stopped in and learned that they used to have a mobile truck and not own a shop! After looking at the menu, seeing the space, and experiencing their very customer friendly hospitality, I wasn't surprised. They make all of their syrups in house and offer some amazing flavors. Today was so nice out so I went with an iced matcha with water and a little pistachio cold foam on top and it was delicious. I can't wait to visit again and try more.

    Iced mocha latte with oat milk, just right.
    Jorge G.

    Always kind service, they will make your drink to your liking or make adjustments if you're not satisfied with it!! Ordered the mocha latte and berry matcha, both delicious. The pistachio croissant is amazing!!!! Live the option of indoor or outdoor seating.

    Pastries
    Jordyn M.

    I came to work and enjoyed the ambience, the baristas are always welcoming and kind, and the drinks use house made syrups adding to the flavor of their coffee. I didn't get a pastry but they do look delightful.

    I stopped by 85°C Bakery right at opening to pick up treats for work and was honestly disappointed…read morewith the experience. There were very limited fresh selections available, and many items were still being baked during opening hours. In my opinion, a bakery should open with the shelves fully stocked and ready for customers, especially those of us stopping in early. The prices are reasonable, ranging from about $2.50-$4.00 for both sweet and savory pastries, but price doesn't make up for the lack of availability. I expected to have more options to choose from instead of empty or partially filled displays. For consistency in early morning breakfast items, I could have easily gone to Krispy Kreme, where you know exactly what you're getting when the doors open. That said, 85°C is convenient and their mango smoothies are great. Overall, it's a decent spot, but I wouldn't recommend going first thing in the morning if you're expecting a full pastry selection.
