Their black tea is better than a lot of boba shops I've tried around Austin and although their regular sugar is too sweet for me, it's an easy fix on the kiosk or at the register. It's also very easy to earn rewards on their app as well as claim monthly/quarterly bonuses and treats that they give out to all rewards members! Their pastries are also divine. My fiancée and I usually buy a whole tray to cater to our friends in the morning. Service: 10/10 baristas are always so friendly and efficient Boba: 10/10 Price: $5.25 for a large boba milk tea which is cheap for Austin! Around $2~$3 for pastries on average. Ambiance: 7/10 this place gets PACKED and there isn't much seating so usually it's take out only for me. I wouldn't really consider this place great for studying.

I love their current event where we can get these adorable magnets that feature the different…read morematcha drinks and sweets that the bakery is opening. So far I've gotten the cute bear and bunny. I ordered the sea salt strawberry drink and the strawberry matcha. The Matcha strawberry is sooooooo good, there are real diced strawberries in the drink and the matcha is actually very soft and mellow in flavor. The clerk at the register was very nice and asked if I had a preference between the two magnets, and was surprised to see how big of a difference in size the bear was to the rabbit, but I think it's cute they decided to make the size difference. I really must try the strawberry dessert cake next time I go back. I can't wait for the release of the last magnet later this month with the cat :)... I love the salt bread, the hotdog bun, and the pork sung bread. The basque cheesecake is good too. Plus you really can't go wrong with any of the teas and drinks this bakery offers. I'm super excited about the opening of the next location here in Harker Heights, I no longer have to make a 130mi round trip visit to get my 85* fix yay!!! Please open ASAP!

Cure Bakery & Coffee is a family oriented shop on Highway 183. Note to self, do not believe your…read moreGPS. It will lead you to the opposite side of 183. Cure is closest to the Department of Public Safety. All their pastries and desserts look extremely appetizing. Their offerings include croissants, turnovers (apple turnover...my choice today), sandwiches, breakfast rolls and cakes. In addition, they serve breakfast sandwiches with customized additions. They sometimes also have breakfast bisuits. Service is always family friendly and welcoming. Today, I ordered an iced matcha latte and apple turnover. The matcha latte was perfect - fragrant matcha flavor but not too sweet with a smooth texture. The apple turnover was flaky like most turnovers but not eye-squinting sweet. I loved every sip and every bite.

We also purchased pumpkin pig cookies, & concha sweet bread. We bought enough for two hearty servings and we looked forward to having these delights with our breakfast the next day. They did not make it past noon! They also have premade sandwiches and the Cubano sandwich caught my eye for my next visit. Nice people, great prices, and a wonderful variety of pastries!

I chose Mindy's site unseen and no tastings to create a two tiers cake for my son's rehearsal dinner. Oh my the most delicious, beautiful cake I have had the pleasure to eat. A work of delicious art. The buttercream was slickly, smooth, creamy and just the right amount of sweetness. The cake was moist with a beautiful crumb - outstanding. I choose the Mexican vanilla cake with buttercream and filled with a fresh strawberry compote (which I got extra of to drizzle on the pieces, so glad I did) for the bottom cake and a chocolate cake with Nutella and hazelnut buttercream. I wish I lived in Austin so I could order more cakes from Mindy's. Thank you Mindy for the beautiful cake and your outstanding talent and professionalism. Mindy's rivals the best European bakeries!

The vibes at this place are immaculate…read more Our family has donuts every Sunday and had started to feel pretty burnt out with our options. This is THE BEST donut shop we've been to in a very long time. The donut and coffee selection is very impressive, to say the least. They also have breakfast sandwiches, breakfast tacos, smoothies, milkshakes. The list is long. We tried an apple fritter, a croissants sandwich, a bagel sandwich and breakfast tacos. We also got a lavender latte and an americano. Everything was made fresh and we were all very pleased. The decor is on point. Old cartoons play on silent with pleasant soft music playing at exactly the right volume. The team is very pleasant seems very happy. It's also super clean. Oh! Another bonus: They have a few games. I stand firmly behind the five stars! We will be back. Next time we'll bring the rest of the fam. Update: Smoothies are good!

We were excited to try this cafe after seeing the strong reviews, but unfortunately our experience…read moredidn't match the hype. My husband and I ordered two iced vanilla lattes with almond milk, and both drinks were difficult to drink. The espresso tasted very burnt and overly acidic, and one latte was especially watered down due to having very little ice. We ended up throwing both away, which was disappointing after spending around $15. As people who genuinely love coffee and enjoy supporting local cafes, we don't expect perfection, but we do expect some consistency and care in preparation. Hoping this was just an off day, because the space and reviews made us really want to love it.

Disclaimer: there may be some bias as a Brazilian and the cake being chosen for my friend's wedding…read more- but in all my sweet loving life I can confidently say this is one of my favorite bakeries. The strawberry cake in a cup (they rotate flavors which the friendly staff explained) surprised me because they are able to balance out the sugar and cream so the flavor profile isn't too sweet and is just right while tasting like the essence of a strawberry in cake form. The pound cake was incredibly moist with fresh fruits and vanilla icing drizzled on. The Samoa was new to me - coconut and dark chocolate was a nice decadent with soft but firm inside. The green chili scone was the only savory/spicy purchase and unlike other scones, this came out without being too starchy and dry. The coffee cake was amazing - especially the moist layer. Be sure to get this with a drink for a well rounded experience. Eating here reminds me of my time in Brazil as a child when I would have some baked goods in the morning and go to the beach afterwards. 10/10 will come back B)

Husband ordered me a specially designed cake 8 days prior to my birthday, and they quoted him $100…read more It was a 6" cake. The cake looked alright, however, they did not fully follow the instructions provided when we ordered. Design details were missed, and it truly looks like they rushed on the cake. For $100, we expected more out of it. The cake itself did not taste great - it was very dense, and the filling they used was not what we ordered. He asked for a vanilla cake with a whipped cream and fresh strawberry filling. They had used a white buttercream instead, and also put an inedible fondant covering the entire cake. This turned what was supposed to be a light and airy strawberry shortcake into more of an overly sweet and dense cake, I do want to note that they did not ask any follow up questions about what to use for the cakes icing or anything of the sort (which I find strange especially at this price point for a small cake) when my husband sent in the request. They also told him they put candles in the box, but there were none. We tried to reach out to the business to resolve this offline, and they did not respond. We love supporting local businesses, but unfortunately this one did not hit the mark.

This place is more known for cakes so not a huge deal. I got a cookies n cream cupcake and homestyle cookie (chocolate chip cookie w/dulce de leche filling). Cupcake was a little dry, but I will say they are very generous with frosting portion on the cupcakes (almost same amount if not more than the bread). Frosting had a good flavor but because cupcakes sit in a cooled display case it was very very thick (solid). Had to wait a bit for it to thaw out. Homestyle cookie wasn't crazy for either. I asked the employee helping me if had a a lot of filling/if the dulce de leche made the cookie "too sweet" but she assured me it didn't. It wasn't for me (unfortunately threw both away after a bite). It was a lot of filling and almost just overpowering, to each their own. Customer service was fine. I probably wouldn't try it again.
