I got it with a splash of milk. It didn't disappoint! It was so delicious and refreshing. It was ready within minutes. The coffee was so good, I drank it before remembering to take a picture. The owner was very friendly. He told me about their run club on Thursday mornings at 7:30. There are picnic tables for sitting and sipping. Very nice setting!

It was a hot day when I came so I ended up getting an iced turkish delight latte which was very nice! Similar to one I'd had in Chicago although I think this one was a little more authentic (less sweet, and at the end of it I saw thick stuff in the bottom which I assume is turkish delight infused in there). The guy working that day was also nice, and gave good recs/explained the Persian coffee concept to me. Would come back if passing by for sure!

Black Cat food truck specializes in Turkish coffee. Apparently, true Turkish coffee has grinds inside the coffee cup. Thus, my taste buds were on high alert. Black Cat Coffee is in a food truck park on West Live Oak Street in Austin, TX. Interestingly, the food truck is black with the cutest logo of a cat in a cup. This coffee food truck focuses on high quality espresso drinks including specialty options like Turkish coffee and lattes. I opted for a hot Turkish delight latte with rose, which was bold, smooth and bursting with robust flavor. My barista was friendly and welcoming! While there was a steady flow of customers, the overall vibe was chill.

A big group lines up to order coffee after our 2.5 or 4-mile runs, and Noble Joe always provides quick and friendly service. They have seasonal specials like Coconut Vanilla Chai, Salted Maple Mac Latte and Mango Matcha. The open seating area with tables and benches, is spacious enough to accommodate a large group. "Empowering people through Coffee" is an apt motto. Every cup of "Joe" helps to empower someone in need. Each purchase helps fund micro-loans for aspiring entrepreneurs, and they donate to various local Austin nonprofits. And every product they serve is sourced from other local, small businesses in Austin.

The inside is surprisingly roomy for this type of bar, making it comfortable no matter where you choose to sit. The customer service is fantastic, and they have an excellent selection of drinks. It's the perfect place to meet up with friends, enjoy great conversation, and unwind in a happy, laid-back atmosphere. I highly recommend it!

We were visiting my BFF in Austin, and I just knew I had to take my family here. I came with my…read moreBFF, my mom, and my aunt. They had me help them choose their drinks during this visit. Neither of them could finish their entire glass of beer, so I ended up chugging the remaining half of both of theirs. The customer service was so sweet--I was struggling to translate the menu with my mom, and the guy at the front desk was truly helpful throughout. It really raised the experience of this place during what could've been a relatively stressful situation. Dirty Horchata - I was hoping for a stronger horchata taste. It's not bad, so it was worth the shot! Just grateful it wasn't too sweet. My BFF felt the same, as we're both horchata fiends from growing up in Chicago. Cherry Cider - The cider has a tangy taste. The cherry flavor isn't as strong, but it's a fragrant drink. The flavor slowly became sweeter the more I drank it. It grew on me, but it wouldn't be my go-to unless I knew I was munching on something salty that night. Violet Blueberry Blonde - My favorite of the two. This one has a tamer flavor with a nicer floral note. It was exactly what I asked for. I felt like I could've easily chugged a few of these. The guy at the counter definitely chose a great pick. I love the low-key ambiance of this place, the peaceful nighttime atmosphere, the fact that it's wedged into a cozy nook, and how it isn't so LOUD like many bars. Didn't get bit by a mosquito while we hung out there for an hour, so that's a huge plus. They were probably chewing on my friends' legs too intently to consider me, though. Wish I had something like this near my place in Houston. I would regularly hang out here on a weekday, no cap.

$3 PBRs, open 24/7, what else can I ask for?…read more Time to Order: We got here around 9:45AM. Walked over but they seem to have plenty of parking. Tons of outdoor and patio seating, a few tables indoors in the AC. I ordered the Flapjack, hot, with double espresso in a larger cup, with half sweetness (effectively a large with less services). Delicious saltiness and cinnamon! I really enjoyed this. I tried the honey lavender latte which they said was the least sweet of their fort favorites. The lavender flavor was very forward and there was a hint of sweetness on the back of the tongue, so very accurate. I didn't get as much coffee flavor here so maybe double espresso if that's important to you. Friends also tried the seasonal coconut macadamia latte (they said it was nice, like a sweet nutty flavor). Really solid coffee spot with great vibes, I'd come back.

Terrible Love is covered in overgrown weeds that obstruct their building and their footprint is a…read moresmall (approximately 15'x15') space. There is only one opening to the building and it is the check in/ POS space. So for employees to get in and out of the building they need to move the entire counter to shimmy themselves into a small brick building. And yet, They have a line around the corner. It is easy to see why, the team at the service counter and friendly and well-informed. They have great drink suggestions and you can tell they care about their product. Their is a latte for everyone and the seasonal rotation keeps it fresh. If you're not adventurous(or visiting from out of town), just go with their specialty latte: grapefruit brown sugar latte. It is well-balanced and you wont be disappointed. On another note: Logistically, this place is kind of a nightmare, where do the employees go to the bathroom??? Why is everything pushed up next to each other?? How do they pass any type of inspection?? Is there even a fire exit?? But who cares, no big deal, their coffee is delicious and their lattes fresh and inspired.

I love terrible love!…read more Vibes are high at their cute outdoor space, the coffee shop is nestled in an old building between some pretty flower bushes that you get to take in while waiting in line. The line always moves pretty quickly, the staff is warm and friendly and the coffee & matcha are delicious. I tend to be a no flavor in my coffee kind of gal cause I fear it'll be too sweet. However last time I was there I got their homemade banana syrup in my iced flat white and I have not stopped thinking about it, I'm going back this weekend. I also tried my friends matcha with the banana and it was really good as well. Terrible love is great addition to Hyde parks charm!! They are also opening a wine bar next door soon.

He was going to walk to the Meteor to grab a coffee and I politely said no thank you. He then comes back handing me this green goddess saying he went to Pura Vida instead. A little back story. I love me a matcha but am not a matcha latte fan. I don't know if its the mixing it with milk, or sometimes it's way too sweet, or sometimes it doesn't give me a good matcha energy for the price....but I've tried my fair share and had decided maybe it's not meant to be. Until this one. Enter Coconut.Cloud.Matcha. As I took my first sip expecting an underwhelming tradition of matcha latte experiences - my taste buds did a double take. One sip guys. Wow'd me. Also just now realizing as I type this... I'm not even a coconut fan! But the blend, the precision of ingredients.... not too sweet at all. The hint of coconut but not too much. And the embracing of the flavor of matcha. The hubs got their seasonal iced coffee and a tropical pink guava for the kiddos. He starred the coffee higher than other local coffee spots and the juice is now his favorite. You've made a matcha latte believer out of me again. Well done, Pura Vida, well done.

Have you ever drank something and the mouthed, "oh my g*d." Yeah me neither until I got a coffee…read morefrom here. Wife and I hads separate drinks. I rechecked the online menu but must be seasonal. It was a coconut based iced latte. Extremely smooth, cream, and actual coconut strips in the coffee. The coffee is the star where they do a good job of balancing the flavors without being too sweet. If you have ever drank coffee and noticed a "clean" coffee kick, I felt this way from this drink. To me the coffee beans are roasted well and come of good quality. The wife ordered the guava matcha. Similiar response where the flavors are rich and smooth. Good balance with guava and matcha. Not chalky. Really balanced. Top 3 of the coffee/matcha places during our trip to Austin. It's great to the degree we would come back if we're in SOCO. It's an outside lot with tables and outside coverings. Depends on the weather but generally chill to hang out. The coffee shop we went to has music playing outside, so low key vibes when you're just enjoying your coffee/day.
