Epoch Coffee - Mexican Mocha - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Austin, Texas

After a crazy morning, I decided to try a new coffee shop. I am a new coffee drinker so I couldn't really understand the menu (my fault haha). After ordering the wrong thing, My wonderful bartista made sure i walked out happy. Doing everything he could to make me try a coffee I would like. Thank you to whom ever helped me this morning. My coffee is delicious! read more

My favorite place to be a Jew in Austin and drink coffee! The people behind this shop do so much for the community and are an incredible resource for everyone. read more

Decent coffee here at Epoch which is located smack in the middle of a neighborhood. How convenient for all their neighbors! I've driven by this neighborhood coffee shop a number of times and have been curious to try them out. The theme they're going for, I think, may be Thrift store in the mid-1980's meets modern hipster baristas. Old furniture and fixtures throughout. But that helps give the place its cozy, worn, neighborhood feel. Kind of like going to your grandma's house. She's had her furniture for years and it's what you've grown up knowing. Yeah, kinda like that. Insert Head nodding here. So I tried their Bagel Dog which cost me $4.50. The dog was a decent polish-type sausage but the toasted bagel was quite tough. Meh. I think I'll skip it next time if I return. It was a good try though. I forget what the barista recommended for the coffee, but I agreed to it and my total for the caffeine and dog was just short $11. read more

My favorite is lychee London fog tea. Barissta recommended it to me, and now it is my favorite--great ambiance, eclectic, and good music.

One of my favorite coffee spots in the city. Each location has a unique style, but the drinks are consistently well made across each location. This is overall chill and quiet coffee shop good for meetings or working. I come here when I want to read or focus on work. If you're in a rush, I recommend arriving early, because it's usually busy and has a bit of a wait. read more

When your employees talk down to the customers, it really discourages patrons from wanting to come back. Semi-bald fella with graying beard behind the counter was extremely rude and condescending and has no business being in a customer based industry. Going to this location for years, this is the first time I've been treated like this by any worker. Normally I would give this shop a 4* rating but because of this incident with this particular worker, have given a solid 1* . Unfortunate that this one worker has earned this review for the entire store. Also agree with previous review that music is way too loud in the early morning hours. read more

Epoch Coffee - Extremely rude and condescending worker. Here he is on his phone while on the clock. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Austin, Texas

Guy employee was rude. I was asking for the lid and he pointed it without say anything. Wasn't sure if it's race based bc he seemed nice to other white customers. Coffee was diluted too read more

For all your Austin Coffee Shop needs... So yeah, it's a classic Austin coffee shop, which means you get * Good coffee * Excellent pastries * Plenty of (comfortable!) seating, both indoor and outdoor * Plenty of outlets (look up indoors. Dangly cords coming down from the ceiling) * WiFi that's good, and fast * Other food products too (pizza!) * Chill staff * Ambience (not overly loud, but not hushed either) * The extremely high likelihood that you'll meet other people you know - especially if you come here more than once! So yeah, come hang out here! read more

* PRE COVID REVIEW* I know that some of this information may now be outdated, but I hope it can be helpful when things get back to normal! Overall, Epoch is a great place to do work other than the randomly loud music. I really like the iced latte, it's not too strong or too sweet. The only thing you should watch out for is that it can be pretty hard to find parking and it gets extremely full during midterms and finals. atmosphere // - cute homey feel, funny decor, cool art - pretty clean (bathrooms aren't the cleanest, but to their credit, I saw a guy clean it 4+ times while I was there) studying // - lots of outlets - good lighting - lots of table space inside and outside - good wifi - randomly has super loud music that some other people have complained about. I wouldn't say it's actually "screamo" - but I could hear it in the background despite noise-canceling headphones. read more

Epoch Coffee - Iced Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Austin, Texas

I don't like coffee shops that much bc expensive bean water and tiny tables are so uncomfy esp to study and never thought I would voluntarily go but this place has singlehandedly changed my mind. So many friggin outlets, affordable drink and food options, wide tables, ambiance is a 10, and stays open. Until. 12. I've been here no less than 6 times, every time a banger. Only gripe is that it's so popular sometimes you have to hunt/circle around for a table for a while but once you're sitting you're set read more

My first several experiences have been pleasant, but we always sat outside. But the heat made it so we wanted to be inside. I get that its an eclectic atmosphere. But I sank into the cushion of the decapitated chair, the place is pretty filthy. I do like supporting local joints like this but it needs a good scrubbing. read more

I am here everyday. What more is there to say? But I will... The staff goes out of their way to explain the menu, connect with the locals, and provided consistently good service/product. By far, this is my favorite coffee spot in all of north america - I've lived in many states. read more

One of the few places we visited where they're not actually the coffee roaster (I believe). No matter... they still make a mean cappuccino. Execution is 50% of the battle... read more

This is a great coffee shop to catch up with friends or find a table to study at. I stopped by at 11 am on a Saturday and was able to snag a space to sit with my friend outside. There were lots of tables inside and outside. The staff are welcoming and took the time to explain their drink recommendations to the lady behind me. I ordered an iced oat latte and snacked on my friends bagel with cream cheese. Both were pretty basic but delicious nonetheless. read more

frozen horchata blendie at epoch! i love epoch but they don't have almond milk :( this was so good tho and it's horchata so it didn't even matter that they don't have almond milk. 7/10 good aftertaste but really liked it. epoch overall gets a 5/10 i love their vibe but their pastry selection is lacking and the no almond milk really is a dealbreaker for me:,( great place to study and cute atmosphere! staff is super nice! read more

Epoch Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Austin, Texas

Great coffee and atmosphere! The barista was very friendly. The place had plenty of room to hang out and enjoy the latte!

TLDR: above average coffee, good prices, immaculate vibes. I've been here several times, and just haven't gotten around to writing a review yet. The coffee is really good. It's not the best in town, but it certainly does the job well, and their portion-to-price ratio more than makes up for it. I really do like the atmosphere of the place. it seems to be in a perpetual state of "almost crowded". It makes the place seem alive, but I don't feel like I have to fight someone to get a seat. I also really love places that give you glassware if you're staying there to drink. not sure why, I just like the feeling of it. It's a bit out of the way, but certainly worth a stop through. read more

Every drink we got here was delicious, and my husband is a coffee SNOB. Not to mention I dm'd them after we got back home from our trip to try and buy a tshirt for my husbands first Father's Day since they didn't have his size when we were in town and they sent it to me for FREE. Amazing coffee and customer service, highly recommend! read more

Big fan of this place. Very cozy atmosphere and a really good menu! I spent a couple days coming here for tea and pastries. My friend was a fan of their tamales (specifically their poblano one) and their horchata slushie. The staff was different each time I went but they all had a very welcoming vibe and I liked spending time there. They're also 24hrs and it's a good spot to hang out, work, or get away from the heat. read more

This place is always packed whenever I pass by this coffee shop. Went to meet up with some classmates here on a Sunday and parking was hard to find, tables were almost at full capacity even with the vast amount of seating they have (indoors and outdoors)! Their hazelnut latte was kind of a disappointment, more creamer than espresso. Saddening for any of y'all who are coffee lovers! Their pastries looked enticing and I had to snag one of their chocolate croissants. The pastry was fluffy and huge but after a few bites, I couldn't taste any hints or pieces of chocolate. I noticed as I got towards the center, only 2 pieces of chocolate appeared. For $4, you get more bread than decadent chocolate!! For a coffee shop, I like the hipster vibe and the amount of seating that is available. I probably wouldn't resort to this coffee joint first as the coffee/pastry didn't meet up to my expectations especially for the price! Although, I was greeted with friendly and helpful staff. read more

Epoch Coffee - Chocolate croissant - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Austin, Texas

24/7 coffee shop that offers great coffee, spacious and plenty of seating option, along with yummy snack bites!!! Why can't we have something like this in DFW already??? Maybe they're not ready for people like me who would definitely "camp" out over night at their coffee shop if there was one in Dallas :( After our late dinner, I wanted something sweet, surprise, not. Checking out at least couple new coffee shops while in Austin was also on my to do list. Epoch was only about 10mins from where we were at, and stays open 24/7 made it the perfect pick. It took us a few minutes looking for a parking spot in their small lot. We gave up and decided to park on the street, ur best option. The coffee shop was packed at almost 11pm on a Thursday night, not too big of a surprise since it's not far from UT, swamped with night owls was completely understandable. We each got a hazelnut latte. I was a lil disappointed to see somewhat of crappy latte art on both, but the delicious, smooth latte made up for it, along with their delicious strawberry rhubarb pie, making my first experience with rhubarb pie a great one. We would have stayed here longer if the mosquitoes didn't like me too much and started munching on me. First coffee shop on my list for this Austin trip was a win and a success in my book, regardless of the disappointing latte art, I'm definitely looking forward to the next time coming back here! read more

Great place to study! Inside is spacious with lots of seating and tables. There's chargers everywhere and no password WiFi! Don't be dumb like me and not notice the extendable chargers that are attached to the ceilings. They pull down so you can charge your stuff even if you're sitting in the middle. Very cute interior with nice art on the wall. Not too noisy and has unisex bathrooms! As for the coffee I had the cappuccino as well as a chocolate chip cookie. The coffee was nice and strong and came fast. The baristas are also very nice! They have a small assortment of pastries like cookies, brownies, and muffins. Their chocolate chip cookie was yummy, has a nice spice to it. Overall awesome place! read more

We loved spending some time at this café. It was obvious that it's a local haunt. The coffee is very good, the table space is plentiful, and there are a lot of outlet extensions too - so, I can see why it's so popular. We shared a table, and it was delightful (as an East Coaster) to meet so many friendly locals willing to have a chat. Would definitely come again, and highly recommend. There's also some shops next door that we're cool, and just a short walk away were great vintage shops, a sex shop, and a radical bookstore. Sweet! read more

I decided today to stop and try coffee since I was in this area looking for a new coffee shop. I arrived there was one person ahead of me but, my order to taken quickly. I ordered a hot vanilla latte with 1% milk. The barista was super friendly. My coffee was made pretty quickly and tasted great. The coffee was hot not overly sweet and smooth. I will definitely be coming back. The area is cute. Everyone I saw had mask on and it was not crowded at all. Seating is only open outside. Overall area looked tidy and clean. read more

Epoch coffee is my all time favorite coffee shop in Austin. They have several locations and are all unique to their location. I always get the almond milk latte and it's sooooo good. I also love the staff and find this a great place to meet with friends and to study. Right now with Covid, a lot of the locations are not offering indoor seating, which I kindly respect. read more

My husband and I moved to the North Loop neighborhood about three weeks ago. And that's when our love story with Epoch Coffee began. The first time our lips sipped on that coffee, we knew it wasn't just infatuation; it was meant to be, baby! Epoch Coffee is a quiet but cozy coffee shop open 24/7 (a dream come true if like us you like to stay up late!) They serve great espresso, latte, a killer mocha, soda, tea, delicious pies, pastries, bagels and East Side Pies pizza slices. They have a large indoor and outdoor space, free wi-fi access and lots of tables and chairs for all. Many people visit Epoch Coffee night and day to work or study on their laptops while sipping on a flavorful espresso. My husband and I usually go there to chitchat and relax, which seems to be counter-current to the local working-hard-with-my-coffee culture, but we feel welcome in the space nonetheless. I honestly have nothing negative to say about Epoch! The cafe and the restrooms are clean, the staff is nice, they're always open, and the food and drinks are good. What more could I possibly ask for? I'm sold! read more

howdy everybody: this place kills me....the door has heart sign and says u belong here. Then u go in and the vibes are anything but. Then they have sign that says "we filter coffee , not people". These hipsters are soooo full of it.....if ur truly different, they look at you as though ur crazy. These morons want acceptance that they dont even know how to extend to another person. I like to support local business, but you would probably get friendlier treatment at Starbucks. I've been many times, leaving tips every time and the service is preferential. If they 4 wutever reason dont care for you, then expect them to take their sweet time taking and preparing ur order. I wish I could leave a more positive review, but can not. read more

Worst coffee I've had. Don't recommend going here. It was so bad that I left my coffee on the table after 3 sips. Find somewhere else to go.

Epoch is a great place to study, read, or just have coffee. The atmosphere is very relaxed. I came here with a friend to study and stayed here for plenty of hours. Pros: Great atmosphere, good location (close to campus), has plugs located through out the cafe, great selection of coffees and pastries (better than bennu in my opinion). On my first trip here I asked the cashier if she would recommend for a drink for me, I was looking for something cold and sweet, she suggested the Mojo (only available at Epoch) and even gave me a sample. It was the perfect blend between something coffee/mocha/sweet, I loved it and it is go to drink every time. The ice they use in the drinks is the perfect, it has a texture between shaved and crushed ice. They have a very nice selection of pastries, and I would have to recommend the cinnamon roll. It is the BEST cinnamon roll I have ever had, imagine a croissant with cinnamon sugar in-between its layers then rolled up, baked to perfection, topped with just the right amount of icing and then some. If you get the cinnamon roll be sure to ask them to heat it up or your experience will just not be the same. They also allow you to keep an open tab at the cashier as long as you give them your card to hold on as collateral, just make sure you close your tab before 24 hours or else they will charge a 10% tip on top of your tab. Cons: They keep their air condition on and running, this place is COLD, make sure you bring a jacket or your will end up freezing your pants off. (I love the cold, this place is even cold in my standards, but I like the cold, still bring a jacket). There is a smell in the restrooms that personally I have a hard time getting over. It smells, used and dirty, not to mention there is graffiti all over the walls, and not very stylish graffiti if I might add. Parking kinda sucks, but then again it sucks at almost every 24 hour place, on the upside I was able to find parking here a lot easier than at Bennu. Overall, this is my new goto study spot around UT and will be coming very often. read more

Epoch Coffee - Best cinnamon roll ever! Make sure you ask to have it warmed up! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Austin, Texas

While there is a lot of space in this coffee shop the cozy coffee shop feel is not lost. Through the space there are several nook areas to sit and enjoy whatever you might be doing. The baristas are knowledgeable and very friendly with very little delay in service. The hot chocolate was extremely good and my son is a connoisseur. They have dairy and non dairy options for their coffees and a nice pastry display. We took home some coffee beans roasted by Onyx sold by epoch. Everything was reasonably priced and tasted great. I reccomend everyone come try this place out read more

This is such a magical place! A latte art is fantastic, I had an oak milk latte each time that I went there and it was so perfect, but beyond that the staff are so energizing and sweet, I love the inclusive vibe that's clearly communicated throughout this place and I love that it's open until midnight. I'm always trying to knock out work later into the afternoon and it's so amazing to have a coffee shop that isn't going to close at 3 PM. This is a wonderful spot to be productive and knock some work out remotely, there's tons of seating an outlet plugs and just a very kind inclusive vibe from the staff as well as the customers. I really recommend the spot! I went to 25 coffee shops while I was in Austin for several weeks and this one was hands-down one of my favorites. Keep up the great work, y'all! read more
