    Such a great spot to grab coffee and breakfast tacos! It's only about a 10 minute walk from the convention center, which makes it super convenient if you're in town for an event. I loved the artistic decor- it gives the place such a fun and creative vibe. My coffee tasted amazing, and I tried the Soyrizo breakfast tacos (vegan) with potatoes and tofu. so delish. The staff was super friendly and welcoming. Definitely a spot I'll be coming back to next time I'm in San Antonio!

    Pretty good coffee spot, but it's a bit bare bones. If there was food, it isn't clearly shown and not made to be appetizing. There was only a very tiny pastry case. The cortado and matcha lemonade were pretty good though! We were just confused because the spot was so large but it was very quiet and nearly empty when we arrived! Maybe just a slow day? This would be a good place to hang out and work.

    I stopped by El Tigre for a coffee last weekend when I was in San Antonio visiting family, and I loved it. My cappuccino was great (they have a full menu of coffee - and they serve food - but I'm pretty basic when it comes to my coffee choices). The decor is great - I loved my seat by the front window looking out across the street to the historic Sunset Train Station; I loved the breeze block wall; I love the cool floors and the tiled bar and the logo. There's plenty of seating. There's a public paid parking lot across the street (the first hour was free on the day I stopped by), but there's street parking around, too. And the customer service couldn't have been better! I loved my experience. I'd love to come back next time I visit.

    Cappuccino and macchiato

    Calm and casual cafe with great coffee! They know their stuff and have one of the best cappuccinos in the area. When I ordered the macchiato, they asked me if I wanted it the "Starbucks way" or the "real way" and I took the chance and got it the "real way". The Starbucks macchiato is definitely different from a real macchiato!!! So just be mindful that they serve authentic coffee here. Their barbacoa tacos were surprisingly amazing! Who would have guessed a coffee should would have the best barbacoa? I think the tacos were so juicy and I love the toppings. I had to go back and order seconds! The cafe is very spacious and very calm. I see people doing work here or just relaxing on the couch. Very good vibes.

    Stopped by right at opening. Parking can be a little annoying but I came early enough and didn't have to walk far. I got a plain latte which I took to go. Definitely enjoyed it. They were cooking breakfast and smelled really good inside. There's a beautiful view from inside the cafe out to st Pauls square. Wish I had had more time to sit and enjoy the lovely view. Service was fast and friendly! Stop by!

    Cinnamon roll and coffee

    Fairly new coffee spot with a lot of potential. I got a caramel macchiato which was delicious and my husband got the cinnamon roll that was quickly scarfed down so I can only assume he enjoyed it lol. The barista was nice and the quiet atmosphere was perfect for our early morning visit. Over all we really enjoyed this spot for a quick morning date.

    I didn't even know this nice little quaint coffee shop was located in the St. Paul Square area. They have a great selection of coffee and espresso drink items on their menu. They have a nice spacious coffee shop with great decor. I really like the artwork inside. The coffee shop attendant was really nice and help me make a great choice with my Matcha tea. They do have some Little snack food items for sale. Also great place to come any time for meetings, just to chill out, lunchtime, or anytime is a great time for coffee.

    Cold brew and breakfast sandwich.

    Got a cold brew (with oat milk and butter toffee syrup) and a pepperoni, egg, and cheese breakfast sandwich. Absolutely amazing!! Definitely a great place to grab breakfast from in the morning. Will be back soon!

    Avocado toast with honey butter tahini
    Belén I.

    I enjoyed a honey oat latte with cinnamon and their avocado toast with honey butter tahini. The avocado toast was creamy, hearty, salty, delicious! And the coffee was solid, not too sweet but sweet enough. The coffee could've been stronger, but it was still delicious. The space is NICE. Spacious, lots of tables to work or study or chat. Big windows that lets the natural light in. Super clean space. And the staff was ultra friendly and laid back. I'd come back again to try the other things on their menu.

I tried the Sami Latte, and it was absolutely delicious...it is definitely a must-try! I also loved that they have coffee and tea options available to take home, which was such a nice bonus. I was not expecting to find oolong tea.!! And the oat white chocolate cranberry cookie... AMAZING. It may officially be my new favorite cookie, and I already know I'll be craving it again soon. I've attached a picture of the ingredients. Completely inhaled the cookie before I took a picture. Oops! But I seriously cannot say enough about the huge selection of pinball machines! There are so many to choose from, with a great mix of classic and newer machines. This is not just a coffee shop...it is a place where you can actually hang out and have fun. Definitely worth checking out if you're in San Antonio!

I am only giving them four stars because there is not enough parking space and it's easy to miss, but they have excellent service, a very cozy lounge area to Work or Read and then if you want to have fun, they have so many pinball machines everywhere for you to enjoy. I love they have a coffee bar where you can go and select your coffee beans you can take them home, or ask them to grind them to go. I got myself some Peruvian organic coffee. Definitely a coffee shop to visit, it's a little hidden gem on rhapsody street

The first room you enter ...beware ...a large glass display counter that contained home made pastries all made fresh onsite! They even had a few gluten free items. I snatched a gluten free apple streudel and continued onto to the next small room where drinks can be purchased. Found out any drink can be made decaffeinated, sweeet, thank you! Ordered a decaf with oat milk and a few pumps of hazelnut. It was perfect! No after caffeine side effects noted. I also get a glimpse of the kitchen in between the 2 rooms, where all the goodies are made. There are two small indoor rooms with various seating arrangements and seating outdoors.
