Fleet Coffee is a MUST visit little coffee shop in East Austin. Here's why you need to go: 1) Coffee: They rotate their beans among the best roasteries in the USA including from smaller roasteries like Madcap (Grand Rapids, MI). My latte was very smooth and among the best I've had in ATX. You can also buy their beans on display. 2) Location: It's in a cute, little corner of hip East Austin. 3) Space: It's tiny, but they make good use of the space. There's a small outdoor space to sit in front and a long window table inside. They even forced a small bathroom inside for customers. 4) Service: Unlike the baristas in top coffee shops in other cities (sorry, NYC), they are very friendly here. 5) Food: They also sell a variety of pastries and breakfast tacos. If you like good coffee and a beautifully minimalist designed space, make Fleet Coffee a major priority. read more

Good coffee! Good vibes! Great pace to sit and chat! Super friendly warm staff. A quintessential Austin coffee shop! read more

Adorable and hip little spot in East Austin. Beware this place is tiny, but there is more seating outside. I don't know if I'd come here to work since there isn't much room, but it is a great spot to go for a cup of quality coffee and to hangout with friends. I got a latte with oat milk--God bless this place for using certified gluten free oat milk. It was good coffee. The baristas are super nice and the spot is great for all the ~trendy~ shots. A great place to just relax and drink some good beans. read more

Fleet Coffee - oat milk latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Austin, Texas

Cute, cozy & cool place! Love the outdoor seating as well as the interior seating inside. I ordered a juniper vanilla coconut milk latte which was pretty good. Subtle but still has the sweetness to it. My husband ordered a cappuccino with a extea shot and he regretted it- wish he stuck with the single shot. They only offer coconut milk as an alternative which I'm not mad about but I think is unique and different. read more

Great Coffee! Stoped by on trip to Austin and definitely worth it. Got some seasonal drinks and a couple other Lattes

WHY I WENT My wife and I are Fleet regulars since relocating to Austin Tx a couple years ago. We moved at the height of the pandemic, and were pleasantly surprised by the ATX coffee scene. There are tons of neighborhood spots and plenty of standouts, but Fleet remains our #1 place to grab coffee 2 years running. The baristas are amazing humans, the vibe is "childless millennial meets mature Gen Z-er" and the music playlist is circa 90's-2010; i.e. the golden era of hip-hop. WHAT I GOT - 5 stars I always get a CORTADO, half espresso and half warm milk. The best way to describe this drink at Fleet is "bitter silk". The milk is warm but not too hot, the espresso has a delicious bite, and the drink goes down smooth and buttery. Until another coffee shop proves otherwise, Fleet makes the best cortado in all of Austin. HOW I WAS TREATED - 5 stars The baristas at Fleet are all amazing people. Everyone has a down to earth vibe, and they all can make a great coffee. Sometimes there is a crowd, but they do a good job of keeping the drinks flowing and line moving. Fleet is essentially an outdoor coffee shop, so be prepared to bus your own table. The baristas are 100% focused on taking orders and creating magic in a cup. Quick note - you have to tell them how much you intend to tip, because the payment machine is inside the shop. Fortunately I have never been unhappy with the Cortado or with the service, so I'm more than happy to awkwardly announce how much they've earned in tips IMHO - Fleet Coffee is understated, super chill and a great place to grab a cup of coffee. Based on how well they execute a Cortado, I'm sure all the other drinks are on point too. Lowkey I'd love to work there as a barista, just to learn the craft from professionals who clearly take the brewing of the bean seriously. p.s. - if you like this review, consider following me! If you like this review and have a thing for vintage, consider following my wife @ LINECURVEMATTER on Instagram. Everything she does is five stars, and she's going to be the Martha Stewart of vintage design one day (minus the legal issues). read more

Fleet is my favorite cafe in East Austin. The staff are welcoming and know their coffee. I start my day there with a pourover (sometimes) or a cortado (most times). Fleet also makes specialty concoctions, including their famous "After School Ritual", featuring Oreo-infused milk. It's worth trying, and less sweet than you'd think. No matter what you get, you'll leave energized. The cafe itself is a striking triangle shape. It's small. Think efficiently-organized coffee submarine, minus the claustrophobia. It gets crowded - especially weekends - but there's an outdoor patio. Hungry? Every morning they've got breakfast tacos from Veracruz, my top pick for tacos in East Austin[1]. If I were to open a cafe, I'd open one like Fleet. [1] I like Tacodeli, but they're no Veracruz. read more

We love this location on the east side right next to a little neighborhood food truck park! We ordered at a window and the baristas were very friendly and made our drinks quickly in front of us after we ordered. The coffee itself is pretty good! We got cold brews, but when it's not so hot out I would love to try their specialty drink "The Ritual" which was a donut infused cortado with a donut hole on the side! We'd definitely come back here for the neighborhood coffee shop vibe. read more

Fleet Coffee - Cold brew with vanilla - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Austin, Texas

The coffee is fine, nothing special to be brutally honest, the prices are OUTRAGEOUS. we paid almost $20 for two coffees. This is quite literally what is ruining the eastside. The irony of this place being next to a dive bar known for punk shows is comical. read more

Quite possibly my favorite coffee shop in Austin. I live across town and always try to find time for a weekly visit. Baristas are stellar and it's just such an adorable place to spend a lazy morning. 5* read more

Great coffee next to taco truck. Fast service. Outdoor seating but no indoor seating.

The hubby and I were in the area and decided to finally check this place out. It is a very cozy place. They have a few stools and a few places to sit inside and some seating outside. We both ordered a cappuccino which were very good. Brit the barista was super friendly and helpful. Highly recommend this place. read more

So the coffee here is very good don't get me wrong. The 3 stars is because it is so insanely overpriced LOL i ordered a large latte with oak milk and added almond cherry sweetener and my total was over 10$!!!!! So after tip I'm paying over 11$ for a 12 oz coffee? That is silly! I've lived in Austin almost 2 years and used to live in LA. Let me tell you right now, the bougiest coffee place you could go to (erewhon)'s coffee is bigger cheaper than this HAHA. SO YA The coffee is yummy and staff was friendly but I'm not ok with paying this price. Theres plenty of local delicious other affordable coffee places in ATX. I think if you are getting an already expensive latte don't charge people for oat milk? & it would be great if they have latte prices for lattes with sweetener that make sense. :) read more

Very very good. Desnudo's is better, but this place still rocks. Until I tried desnudos this was my go to place for third wave coffee.

Honestly. FAVORITE COFFEE SHOP IN AUSTIN. This is a spot you can't miss out on while traveling here. It only has outside seating but there is always a to go option if its bad weather. This is a must for a daily dose of caffeine. read more

Fleet Coffee - capp - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Austin, Texas

What an absolute delight. The staff greeted us when we walked in, which is always a plus when sometimes courtesy is a thing of the past. Street parking is easy as there is limited space out front. It's tiny inside, so don't plan on spreading out. They have a kid's hot chocolate that is a great size, delicious, and served at an appropriate temperature. My mocha is delicious. Just a really nice experience. Looking forward to another visit. ** Republic donuts in the parking lot was so freaking good. I loved both the fresa crema and the spiced donut. They both had this excellent crunch. Unlike other donuts these things are substantial, one is filling.** read more

Not to the wise: get here early! The line is long!! Very popular spot so would definitely recommend getting there as soon as you can! Iced coffee is good! Cappuccino is also solid! I did also get a chocolate crescent thing which was pretty good. I'd come back here but would ultimately get there earlier. read more

Small and cozy, Fleet fits in with the surrounding neighborhood and businesses. Ordered a ginger cookie, and the flavor definitely came through in a good way. I've also tried their hot chocolate - not bad, but nothing to write home about. Fleet's menu is on the smaller side, and prices are okay-ish in my opinion. The barista was friendly and service was quick. There's a few parking spots directly in front of the shop and plenty of street parking. Like many others have said, the inside is quite small. The interior design looks great, but it's not the most comfortable seating. I wouldn't recommend Fleet for large groups, but there is a nice outdoor patio with larger tables (weather permitting). The downside is Fleet seemed to only have two outlets inside and none outside, so come fully charged. WiFi was reliable, just ask the barista for the password. Overall, I recommend Fleet if you want to catch up with someone one-on-one and take it slow, rather than work/study. read more

Fleet Coffee - Ginger cookie - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Austin, Texas

4.5. The owners of Fleet Coffee are some of the best Baristas in town and their coffee shop is representative of their attention to detail and artistic abilities. I'm always fascinated with the accentuated taste of a latte or Capuccino when there is artwork! Granted it is harder to take the first sip, because you won't want to mess up the latte art. Fleet uses extremely high quality coffee beans to make their concoctions. Speaking of concoctions, they have several creations with ingredients you wouldn't typically think of combining. They all mix well together and you'll start to stray from your usual cup of joe. Grab a Saturday Morning Ritual infused with fruity pebble milk! They'll even put a homemade fruity pebble treat on the plate. They make them in-house (I've seen these bad boys coming out of the oven and being cut up for serving). If you like your espresso with a bit of a citrus kick, indulge in the E.T. It's brilliant. If you just want a Capuccino, that's fine too. They're exquisite. Check out their beautifully designed and built patio furnished with wood-crafted tables and chairs. They have wifi too, if you need a spot to connect. You'll love this place like I do. I hope. read more

(4.50) I am doing little trip around Austin visiting different coffee shops. I found this place while searching best coffee shops in austin on google/yelp. FOOD// I ordered a latte, which loved. It was on more bitter side than what I would prefer. The art was always great ;) SERVICE// The barista that I interacted was very friendly and efficient. She had more drinks ahead of me, but came out pretty fast! ATMOSPHERE// The shop, itself, is very small where sitting is very limited inside probably enough to fit ~15 people indoor and ~25 people outdoor (this is based on just their sitting space). I would not really say this would be a great working/study spot, but if you do make it a study spot, I think it should work. I worked on my stuff outside because I just wanted to work on stuff outside. SURROUNDING// Not really sure where.. read more

THE RITUAL Oreo infused milk and espresso. This is SO good. It definitely is stronger than the usual lattes I get. But it is smooth and that's really what matters when it comes to these drinks. Get it if you love Oreos. I've never seen anything like it even in the coffee shops in OC and LA. YUM read more

Standard coffee. Good spot to go to if you are getting breakfast tacos next door. Iced coffee was a little too sweet with the syrup, so recommend asking them going light on that. Cream seemed really light. read more

The coffee: A little bitter and medium bodied. It was way too acidic for my taste. I wouldn't say it was bad, per se, but I didn't really like it much at all. Also, $4 for a cortado is a bit on the expensive side, considering how small of a drink it is, and how easy it is to make. Some points for presentation. The shop: Very tiny inside. There are about three tables and a small bar inside, and it's just cramped overall. They do have a nice outside, with decent seating there that is shaded. I would definitely say this is more of a grab and go place. The service: Great! The baristas we're friendly, and they bring your drink to you, which is awesome since the seating outdoors is much more appealing than inside. Overall: It's just too cramped for me, and I didn't like the coffee enough to actually swing by. The service was good though. read more

Tiny coffee shop, big win! These guys are quality all around. Definitely try "The Ritual". I mean, who can pass up a cortado made with Oreo infused milk?! The tacos (Veracruz All Natural) and pastries (Texas French Bread), were delicious too! Highly recommend Fleet for all your Austin coffee needs. read more

A gem in the Holly coffee scene. It's an oasis of calm quality with uber friendly, conversational baristas. They serve a variety of beans- 49th Parallel from BC, Buna, and a few more. They have a fairly simple menu but a few fancy drinks if you can't take your coffee sans milks/sweet/added flavor. Recommended for real coffee lovers- as the simple drinks shine and show the quality of this shop. The iced americano is refreshing, bright, and light despite the great caffeine kick- perfect on a hot day. The cappuccinos are great as well. They only offer coconut and whole milks, in case you are wondering and have a variety of pastries depending on the day. At 2PM on a Saturday, the only ones left were three cookies- which were very good. I recommend the ginger cookie to go with your coffee, you won't be sorry. There's a bar inside and maybe two small tables, more seating outside. People definitely come here to work but also to chat with friends- anything goes. read more

The ritual// $6.5 E.T// $6.5 Taco// $3.5 The ritual had #donut infused milk, espresso and a donut hole. Honestly best coffee I've ever had. So smooth and velvety with a donut after taste. The next drink called the E.T had tonic water, iced espresso, grapefruit and simple syrup. Initially it's sweet and creamy then you get a slight tickle on your tongue from the carbonation and a mild taste of grapefruit slides in. You also had several beans to choose from. I'm still not to knowledgeable about that department but any coffee #connoisseur would be in paradise. The taco had super fluffy eggs with cheeses and smoky #poblanos with corn. Each #salsa was amazing. From the #food to the #coffee whomever is in charge of this menu has a impressive palate. And the inside felt like a very laid back yet elegant environment. This is possibly the best coffee experience I've had. read more

Yup yup yup! I needed to find a coffee spot stat and trusty yelp led me to the right place once again. This place is so freaking tiny and adorable I can't stand it. What a clever way to use this unique space! Semi covered patio seating, small tables for flying solo and large ones for bigger groups! I saw a dog water bowl by an outside table. I rest my case. The guy behind the front counter was super sweet, I told him it was my first time, he showed me the simple menu and explained all of their syrups are house made. One butterscotch iced latte later I'm happy as can be. My drink was out in a jiffy. Free WiFi. I'll be back and so should you for all your adorable coffee stop needs!! read more

Definitely a spot for young professionals. Two espresso choices, gluten free breakfast taco options, and free wifi. Service is very attentive, bringing your drink to your seat and excitedly offering you options. Definitely has that new upscale almost Brooklyn feel. Cappuccino costs over $4, meaning that Flitch coffee still holds the title for the cheapest, best cappuccino on the East side. Bathroom is clean and fresh. Drawbacks: the inside seating area is small, so there's a good chance you'll end up sitting outside, which is beautiful but may be too bring to see your computer screen. One word: Mosquitos. read more

Yes!!! Finally made it here after reading a review in Food and Wine. Small place with super friendly staff. We told them what we like and they told us what to order. I got the juniper vanilla iced coffee. Such a random flavor combination but it works. Really good. If you like it sweet, if you like it iced, if you like it strong - you'll like it here! read more

I'm missing something that y'all are seeing. Popped in here today to give Fleet Coffee a second chance. Went previously for a black coffee and was unimpressed. Went back in today with my own 20oz mug to refill and was charged $3.75. That's their price for a drip coffee, I get that, but many places around town will charge the smaller price when I bring my own mug. That aside, it's not my favorite coffee in town. Perhaps it's due to the fact that I like my coffee with almond milk and stevia, and Fleet carries neither of these items. Oak milk is all they have behind the counter and there was no stevia. Couple that with a parking spot that ripped up the bottom of my car due to needing to be repaved and a tiny little shop and I'll be giving this place a pass in the future. read more

One of my favorite two spots in Austin for coffee. The most consistently perfect espresso drinks award goes to these guys. Staff is also super friendly. Just wish there was more seating. All seating is outside, so keep the weather in mind if you plan to sit and sip. Highly recommended to all of my friends. read more

I was getting ready to not like the place. I thought it was just another overpriced drink and I was a little confused on what there setup was due to the virus. I stand corrected. This might be the best cappacino I've ever had. Thanks, guys! read more

Cute small coffee shop, a little over priced but good coffee, friendly staff and good environment

I got their cortado with lavender and it was heaven! Smooth espresso with the perfect balance of sweetness in their lavender flavor. Loved their almond buckwheat muffin too. Great start to my morning! read more

Wow! My husband and I are from Fort Worth, I am a coffee lover and he is very hit and miss on weather or not he will like it that day or not. This was the best coffee him and I have ever had! We are coming back tomorrow before we head back to the DFW! I wish I could take this barista home with me! I'm in love!! We both had a vanilla latte and a potato, egg and cheese breakfast taco (also fantastic!) the mild salsa was yum!! Can say enough about this super cute and delicious shop! Go here and try it!! read more

If you think it's tough following Austin's new restaurants, try keeping up with the coffee places. Fleet and Flitch are the newest local players, I think they're both great, and I'll meet you at either one. In fact, tell me which one you like, and I'll tell you what you are. Okay, I borrowed that line from a Starbucks in France. I could tell you what beans they're using, but really, do you care? Trust Lorenzo's judgment. I benchmark places by their batch of straight black, but Fleet stops doing that around 3pm. I did think my $3.75 Madcap Spring Fling pour-over was some pretty good stuff. I know nothing about steamed milk or flavored concoctions. I left here thinking what a clever use of interior design, it's easy to park, and this area of Webberville street sure is pretty interesting - hey, isn't that Gourmands & the new Dog & Duck Pub? Fleet takes their coffee seriously, you'll feel welcomed here, and there's Topo Chico & WiFi. Total fanville for me. read more

Fleet Coffee - 8 people can sit inside, it's a pretty clever design. Lots of outside space. That's my cup, btw. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Austin, Texas

Fleet is great and definitely worth a stop (in addition to return visits). They take their coffee and tea seriously and you can tell. They churn out some tasty stuff with a unique spin here and there. For example, you really can taste the doughnut in their doughnut infused milk. They have ample seating outside with narrow seating inside; if you've been here, you know what I mean. It works well. I hung out here for a while sipping my espresso and having some good conversation. Patrick and Lorenzo are great themselves and have a really good thing going that I think many will appreciate. I look forward to return visits. read more

This coffee shop was a little bit of a drive from me, but with the great Yelp reviews and being a coffee lover I was game for driving to give it a try. They have parking right in front of the store and are across from Dog and Duck Pub and Revolution BBQ. It is a very small, but cozy set up. There are a few small tables, a bar looking out the window with bar stools, and some outdoor seating. The owner\barista is very friendly and is happy to answer any questions you may have about the coffee. They have some very interesting and unique coffee choices which sets this shop apart from others. I had to go with the morning ritual because who doesn't love a donut hole with their coffee. Couldn't resist also trying a cold offering and the flip top (root beer, chicory, and coffee) caught my attention. Neither coffees disappointed and overall it was a great experience and worthwhile trek. If you are a coffee lover this place should definitely be bookmarked and on your short list of coffee shops to visit. I'm pretty sure you won't leave disappointed. The only thing I would say, I probably wouldn't plan on coming in a large group unless it is a nice day to sit outside. Definitely a great place to enjoy some 1 on 1 conversation with someone however. read more

Wonderful coffee shop! I went several weeks ago with a friend and all our kids. It was fairly straightforward to find, with parking in front. There are several picnic tables outside, which is always nice to find on a sunny, spring day in Austin! There is also lots of space outside that has the potential for either more tables or other things. Inside, the shop is immaculately clean and simple. They designed the indoor space well considering the building itself is in a bit of a V shape. I know the shop is owned by two guys, one of whom I'm not familiar with, but Patrick I remember from Caffe Medici. I'm happy for the launch of his business, since I remember him being an exceptionally good barista at Medici. They have a very creative menu. I wish I could remember off the top of my head some of the unique items they had, but on the day we came in we just kept it simple. I had a cafe au lait with almond milk, which was excellent. Service was great and very welcoming. Even the bathroom was clean, which is always appreciated when you go places with kids. Hours are also easy to remember - 7 AM to 7 PM! Definitely check out this place! read more
