I was coming to Hank's regularly and I'm disappointed that the quality of food has changed. they no longer have some of my favorites: the kale Cesar salad was delicious. They also changed the Hanki panky tiki and replaced the Trinidad rum with bourbon. They replaced the kale Cesar salad with just a regular Cesar salad. read more

Walked in, wasn't greeted, the hostess was not particularly friendly (stuck up). We got seated outside, we waited 20 minutes and didn't even receive a water or anything. I wasn't about to let anyone going hungry waiting for a server that clearly didn't want to serve us ( so we left). This is beyond a sub-par experience, I was looking forward to writing a good review, unfortunately I can't do that this time. Here's a picture of a menu if you want to see what your going to have to wait an hour or more for (when they aren't busy). read more

Such a great neighborhood spot. Nice indoor dining, bar and covered outdoor dining, great menu options, good parking, friendly and well-trained staff. It is busy but not impossible to get in on weekends. Today, our meal was brunch--avocado toast and quiche. Very nice! read more

Service was great. (Our waiter was very attentive) I ordered the crispy rice bowl. Never had crispy rice but realized I'm not a fan, no fault but my own. Ambiance was calm for a business lunch. It was 6 of us. My frustration is after sitting down and indulging in business talk, my pants kept getting stuck on sitting in the seat. They are wood so I kept checking to make sure I didn't rip my pants. I didn't wanna make a big deal about so as we were leaving I checked and there was a sticky stain right where I felt the issue in my chair. Mind you this is a business lunch and I'm only half way through my work day. So I go back in and let the front desk lady know and her words exactly..,"ok, what do you want me to do" No, I'm sorry, let me check the chair and make sure it gets cleaned.... I was late for work so I didn't have time to help her understand good customer service. Since this was my first time at Hanks, I won't be in a rush to go back and I live 2 miles away. read more

Hank's - Something sticky was in my chair and I sat in it and the front desk lady was of no help - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Austin, Texas

Highlights: 1. The food came out hot and quick! The food was also so good! 2. The server was very sweet! 3. The drinks were great 4. There were multiple bathrooms 5. The chicken sandwich was way better then expected. Lowlights: 1. One of the toilets was out of order. (Had to wait for it to load with water) 2. There was no paper towels in the restroom. 3. We ran out of water at the table. (We were a table of 6) We also went low on our drinks. 4. The restaurant was very loud, it had a horrible echo. You'll have to scream at your friend FYI read more

This is definitely going to be a new Monday tradition- every Monday is half priced burgers and lemme tell ya, this burger was stupid good. It came with sharp cheddar cheese, bibb lettuce, red onion, dijonaise, and a thicc patty all inside a sesame seed bun It also came with a side of french fries. They were salty, crisp, thin, and had parmesan on them. Sandro got the pesto chicken bowl and it was really really tasty. I only had one bite because he was in heaven eating that bowl so I didn't want to ask for more but I wish I did because it was THAT good. (and pretty healthy!) Another thing to mention is that happy hour is from 3-6:30 EVERYDAY so of course I was gonna take advantage of that too. I got the spicy margarita and it was quite tasty. It was small but strong. I originally was gonna order the Paloma but the machine wasn't ready yet but that's ok- I guess I'll just get it NEXT Monday Overall, Hank's had the cutest vibe and really great food. Definitely one of my favorite Austin spots so far!!‍ read more

We were sat down, but weren't acknowledged by the waiter at all until my friend got up to ask the hostess. We noticed the table beside us, who was sat AFTER us, were greeted promptly. I've never had issue with the Café, I'd be back for the coffee but not for dining. read more

It's a popular aesthetic brunch place with nice servers. The menu has a variety of options and it's pleasant to have a nice brunch there. However the food is on the blander side, as each of my friends had to add more seasoning. The eggs benedict cooked fine, but lacked richness. Fortunately, as usual, you can't go wrong with potatoes and ketchup. Someone got the crispy rice bowl and couldn't even finish it, since her bowl was mainly arugula. Service was a bit slow even though we came in right when it opened. Parking is plentiful and I like the namesake. I don't think I'll be back for the food anytime soon. read more

Hank's - Celebrating my birthday at Hanks - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Austin, Texas

What happened to Hank's? It used to feel so fresh when it opened seven years ago, but our recent visit was disappointing. The interior looks worn--walls marked up, bathrooms seemingly untouched since day one. When I went to the ladies' room, the vent above the toilet was covered in a thick layer of dust--utterly gross. Service was slow and inattentive; we had to flag down our server just to order, and we barely saw him after that. The food was just okay--the whipped feta was bland, the salads forgettable, and while the chicken sandwich was decent, it wasn't anything special. Drinks were hit or miss: beer was fine, but the selection was limited, and the frosé was so bad we sent it back. To top it off, our table was in direct sunlight, and the sagging shade offered no relief. It was meant to be a birthday dinner, but it fell flat. Please bring some love and attention back to this place--it deserves it. read more

Hank's *dazzled* me! The space is quite large (excellent spot for a large group) and has plenty of parking. The decor is modern, light, and timeless -- it really sets the tone for your time there! I went for brunch (brunch offered 10am-3pm) and had the shakshuka and wow, was it so flavorful. The picture does not do it justice, it was so savory! Need a great brunch spot with some friends? Go to Hank's! Or need an inspiring place to get some work done over a coffee? Also go to Hank's! Will 100% be back. read more

We liked Hanks so much first time so went again today for lunch, and it was a disaster, this place lacks in consistency!! This place is kinda hit or miss. We had made reservations as it's long weekend, and got seated immediately, our host came to get order almost after 15ish mins, and he was dirty, times like this with pandemic and everything, it personally matters to me and makes me think how hygiene kitchen is. We ordered veggie burger, fried chicken, fries and sour dough toast. Fried chicken was super salty, feta cheese in Veggie burger tasted funky, like inedible funky, and it was room temperature, and the paddy itself doesn't have any flavor and it's made of brown rice I think, so with the bun, it's all carbs. the only good things were fries and sourdough toast. Waited couple of minutes to talk to our waiter, but dint see him for a bit of a time, and then finally flagged him down to get a check. Overall pretty disappointing!! read more

The first time here was way better than second visit. Our entrées arrived cold and the potatoes were slightly stale. We were relieved to have shown up with a zero wait time and for what.. Nonetheless, this place still holds a place on our brunch list. read more

I visited Hank's with my boyfriend a few days ago. Let's start with the pluses: Friendly staff Spacious Great parking Cute coffee drive through Unfortunately, we didn't love our food. We ordered the Brussels sprouts as an app and they had too much balsamic on them. They definitely needed a touch of sweetness. My boyfriend ordered a fish dish. He said it was very bland. I hate to leave a review like this but we were just not impressed with the food. I really wanted to love it here. I'll happily change this review if my opinion changes in the future. read more

I went to their cafe around 9 AM on a Saturday morning, they weren't busy but were already out of matcha. I ordered their chai instead and ended up enjoying it. I also ordered their Migas breakfast tacos and was very disappointed. They were so bland and unseasoned. Service was nice but their ordering system is odd. They gave us a table number but didn't serve us our food or drinks. We ended up having to go back to the counter to get them. Their outdoor seating was nice and shaded. read more

I went in with great expectations due to the aesthetics & couldn't decide on what I wanted. The server was nice & took our order pretty quickly. We got the drinks pretty quickly & then waited for our food for more than 20-30 minutes. Other people gotten their food before us. & the server came back & saw that we haven't gotten our food. We finally got it and the food was completely cold. My potato's felt like it was stale and left out for quite some time. The salmon was SOOOO salty. Salty salty. It was unbearable to eat. Horrible. I don't think I'll try this dish again but definitely didn't like the experience. read more

We had the Mediterranean meatballs that came with Hank's version of Tzatziki. The meatballs were seasoned with Kofta spices and a hint of cayenne or some other type of pepper. Overall the taste was mild with a hint of what traditional kofta tastes like. The Tzatziki was milder than typical tzatziki and needed a little more acid. We also got their hummus and pita which was delicious! They serve feta cheese and roasted cauliflower atop a generous portion hummus that is creamy, lemony and well spiced. The burger was a little bland. The patty needed salt. The bun was soft and the homemade pickles are a nice touch. The arugula side salad was very good. I especially liked the pickled onions and the dressing which had the perfect amount of dressing. The Malfalde pasta was the absolute star of the show! It is very tasty! We shared the Chantilly cake and donut holes which were great desserts. We will be back! read more

Reviewing the café side, the tables are covered in dirty dishes, the water pitcher has been dry the entire time I've been here for a late lunch, and the bathrooms are filthy with, it looks like, literal shit on the wall. The café barista/cashier looks bored out of her mind with nothing to do; yet, there's dirty dishes and no water (multiple employees have walked back and forth in front of the dirty tables). Hank's could be good if it was well managed, but it simply isn't a clean or well-run place. Bring some competition to this corner of Windsor Park please! read more

I was recommended Hank's for brunch by a colleague and it did not disappoint! It was a lovely, airy, modern place for brunch with lots of open space inside and outside, and lots of plants! We met some friends for brunch - I had the farmhouse benedict - delicious! The eggs were poached and gel-like consistency which was just perfect for me, lots of flavor in the hollandaise sauce with just the perfect, thick texture. The side potatoes were just fine, not super crispy or flavorful, but I let that slide. My husband had the pancakes - super creamy and soft, with plentiful blueberry compote on top. It turns your teeth blue, so watch out! Iced matcha was standard - not super sweet which was nice, iced mocha was pretty sweet, but still good. I really would love to visit again to try Hank's for dinner or lunch to see what else they have to offer, but I definitely will be back for brunch. read more

Worst brunch place I've ever been to. Id like to preface this review by saying the servers were great and none of this was on their part. The issues stem from the quality of the food. Blueberry Lemon Ricotta Pancakes: They really emphasized the blueberry here.. the entire pancake was COVERED in blueberries and I had enough to start my own blueberry farm. It was also hard to taste the lemon. Shakshouka: This is where the main issue was. The white part of the egg in the shakshouka was raw. Before anyone says that a sunny side up egg is supposed to raw, no the white is supposed to be cooked and not like like it does straight out of the eggshell. The sourdough bread was stale and hard to bite and chew. There was pools of oil, and the sauce-to-egg ratio was abysmal. And no feta like the menu advertised??? Unless it was in the sauce. If that's the case, it was hard to taste. Also, it literally wasn't the typical shakshouka...? The eggs were on top of the tomato sauce when the eggs were supposed to be cooked into the sauce. On another note the mug for my coffee had crusted on lipstick stains. We also were not given back 80 cents of change when we paid in cash. I guess this is what they mean when they say beauty isn't everything. This is the perfect spot if you just want cocktails and breakfast potatoes but if you're looking for decent food, I'd go somewhere else. Gorgeous interior though! read more

Service is good but food is meh. The vibe is nice and has so much potential. I bit into my sandwich to add sauce because it was dry and and saw that the chicken in my chicken sandwich was just a tiny chicken strip. 15 dollars for one chicken tender and a ton of dry bread. Bummer. Fries are good though! read more

Went for my birthday and it was a great experience. Made reservations, and were seated as soon as we arrived. Our server was so kind and friendly, giving recommendations on food and drinks, and checked on us often. Got the cheeseboard, frozen paloma, a burger and dessert. Not photographed was the burger, but it was good. Wished the cheeseboard had meat, but that's okay, still a nice starter. Dessert was a chantilly cake, and perfect size to share between two people. Will be back for brunch and happy hour soon! read more

Find your center (and a delicious meal) at Hank's. The ambience is light and airy, with classy touches of boho chic design. The menu is decidedly elevated American, and there's something for everyone: think wood-grilled salmon, shrimp & grits, veggie burger, and a hot fried chicken sandwich. The parking lot is HUGE, so that's one less thing to worry about! In terms of dress code, we saw people dressed up (sundresses, collared shirts) as well as people who had literally just returned from a hike. Beautiful patio seating is available in addition to spacious indoor tables. A cafe connects to the restaurant/bar area, as well. They can accommodate large parties, as well as more intimate get-togethers. read more

Ok so I finally bit the bullet and went to Hank's... a little too late for happy hour, but I did get the opportunity to enjoy a 1/2 price burger since it is Monday. It was tasty! And I can't wait to go back again someday to try another of the yummy sounding items on the menu. I would have given this establishment 5 stars but I didn't care for my cocktail. I'm not a gin fan but I thought I'd try it anyway. Our server was super nice and informative! I appreciated his patience with all my questions. He was quite knowledgeable. And the ambiance was nice. Unpretentious, spacious and airy. Great place for a relaxed drink at the bar or a sit down meal with a friend or two. I'll be back...especially since I only like a couple of blocks away. read more

Great brunch or coffee spot! Indoor and outdoor seating, large parking lot, dog friendly, and great staff! A brunch favorite is the egg sandwich - highly recommend. Aioli, bacon, and arugula - chef's kiss! The breakfast potatoes weren't anything special though. The attached coffee shop is also super cute! Love that they have a water station out, and use reusable cups (yay environment!). Sometimes finding seating can be challenging, and it is pretty pricey - $6 for a vanilla latte. Overall would definitely recommend! read more

Been to Hanks probably a dozen times, happy hour, brunch and dinners. Always pretty satisfied with the food. I really enjoy their brunch dishes including the shrimp and grits, Benedict's, shakshuka and the lemon ricotta pancakes. The shrimp pasta was good last time i went and the bolognese was also good. Unfortunately the service has really been lacking the last few visits. It seems like maybe they're stretched thin. It's a pretty place, great happy hour prices, and good value for the entrees. read more

Hank's - Shrimp pasta - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Austin, Texas

I have come here a ton of times it's one of my favorite breakfast places in Austin. The eggs Benedict is amazing and the potatoes that come with them are to die for , ask about their bakery pastries if you get there early enough they are always amazing. Unfortunately their service was not it today. Our waiter was incredibly nice but we were seated by one of the large curtains outside and for whatever reason it kept hitting me in the back of the head. I kindly asked one of the people that worked there to help tie it down or something to assist with this problem. This horrible man proceeded to tell me how it wasn't possible for the curtain to be even hitting me in the head. They did nothing about it and as it continued to hit me in the head the man came back and told me how it was actually impossible for it to be hitting me in the head . Finally I asked our waiter to help because he could see it in that moment hitting me over and over again. Our waiter was very helpful and nice and I'm grateful for him. The man that tried to mansplain how something wasn't possible was incredibly rude and really ruined my experience. In what world is it okay to treat a regular customer like that or any customer at all. Who would make that up? Then he had the audacity to come out of the restaurant and glare at me once I moved tables. The establishment reallly needs to do something about this man's attitude it's not acceptable. read more

Picked Hank's out of a line up of nearby coffee shops based on its clean look and ranch theme. It's surprisingly spacious with a dining hall and a separate coffee section. A quiet coffee shop with a few laptop users but still with plenty of seating. Was expecting more baked goods than muffins...disappointing. The service was lukewarm but fine. The coffee is made with local Austin roasted beans (another reason for a touristy visit), which I found incredibly light. A large coffee with three shots of espresso tasted like it was missing a shot or two. A warning would've been nice so here's my warning to fellow dark strong heavy drinkers: the coffee is light. Beware! read more

I had high expectations for Hank's. I would say it feel short. If you do go, try to secure a table outside on a sunny day. I feel like the patio is the selling point. Furthermore, I highly recommend reservations if you do decide to go. They have capacity restrictions and long wait times. Atmosphere: The vibe was definitely super fun and cute. High ceilings, string lights, huge outdoor patio, and pretty cute interior. Food: My food was OK. I ordered Eggs Florentine off of the brunch menu. My first impression was that the spinach was way too soggy and overwhelmed the dish. The hollandaise sauce was very soupy and lacked any "yum" elements. The fries were nothing special either. My sister ordered the Spicy Fried Chicken sandwich and said it tasted good! Service: The waitress seemed pretty scattered brained and got a few mix up with our order. She was friendly, but was close to the end of her shift and didn't show us much attention. The new waitress we got wasn't rude by any means, but also very absent. Overall, I wouldn't recommend Hank's to a friend. I wouldn't rush to go back. Too many facets of the experience left me wanting more. read more

I read the reviews when my friend asked we meet there and I was like really? But what a nice surprise, not sure why some of the recent reviews are so critical. I ordered the hummus with cauliflower and feta which was amazing! The latte was delectable and my avocado toast excellent. My friends, one had pizza which was good, and the other had a steak salad with these amazing french fries which we all shared. The only thing was that their soda machine wasn't working, I ordered a Diet Coke and it was awful. Place is lovely, spacious, new and clean, a real show stopper with an amazing parking lot that needs better lighting. read more

My waitress was kind and polite and I literally just ordered the best fries that made me want to come back already

A pretty study spot with many outlets and comfy seats. The music is a little loud, the cafe and restaurant play different songs so it clashes. We got the Chantilly cake, eton mess, cheese board and matcha and it was all ok. Definitely not worth the money. The cake was too dense, the cheeseboard was very mediocre, the eton mess was good but it's just whipped cream and strawberries, the matcha was also mostly milk. read more

We went here for New Years Day brunch! We went early so we could beat the crown. I'm glad we did because there definitely was a crowd that came in after. We sat at a booth indoors, they do have a cute covered patio where you can bring your dog. Next time we come we will try that and bring our dog with us! I had a Michelada and my husband had a Bloody Mary. Both drinks were good. We ordered the fries as well as a side. They were super thin and crispy which is my favorite type of fry. Another thing that surprised me was the large amount of vegetarian options on the menu. So many things to choose from!! I chose the crispy rice and it did not disappoint. My husband liked his grits also. We will definitely come again and may bring visitors here because they had a good size parking lot and the location is close by! read more

Everything from the ambience and food and beverage choices make this spot an all-around crow favorite. I stumbled upon this place on my caravan travels and find myself returning quite often. The broad choices in food and beverage make it extremely accommodating for the casual picky eater, or a foodie looking to broaden their choices. I've never been disappointed with any of the food or beverage choices. The service is great, but can be quite of a wait if it's busier... just know it's worth it! I would not recommend drive through as their online menu is not as extensive and you get faster service parking and getting down. read more
