    My daughter and I stopped in for a cup of coffee while on a shopping excursion at around 11 am on a Saturday. We were the only people in line when we arrived, but the indoor seating was already pretty full. I ordered an iced latte and she got an iced vanilla latte. We hadn't planned to sit, so we headed back out to continue shopping. We noticed there was plenty of outdoor seating, but mostly in the sun. We both liked our coffees!

    Lavender latte

    Cute little coffee shop in the Domain. Great place to hangout with a few friends. Service is quick and friendly. I got the lavender latte and quite enjoyed it.

    Went to Houndstooth this Friday for wfc! And it turned into a great surprise. Got a lavender latte which was smooth, lightly floral, really well balanced. Also picked up a tall buckwheat-based muffin after chatting with the barista (was hesitant at first), but wow! it was amazing. Perfect sweetness, super soft, and honestly better than a lot of regular flour bakery stuff. Definitely coming back for that again.

    I like houndstooth a lot! They make good coffee and have wine and beer in the evening. The staff is always super quick at this location. They have a nice outdoor section and cool aesthetic inside.

    The best coffee spot in Domain, Austin. Quick service, nice and airy. I picked up coffee for 3 consecutive days from Houndstooth once I found the place (recommended by a coworker). The peppermint mocha is amazing, and so are the breakfast tacos that they offer from Tacodeli. I just discovered Breakfast tacos and I am pretty impressed, they definitely beat the breakfast burritos which I never seem to ever be able to finish. The pumpkin yogurt granola was another mind-blowing find here. Pretty quiet in the mornings so it makes for a good working/relaxing with your cuppa coffee spot.

    Beautiful light during the evening.

    Houndstooth is a small coffeeshop chain which has locations in Austin and Dallas. The shop I go to most, is the one on Rock Rose at the Domain, as my wife works down the road from it. I've been going to this place on and off for just over a year. The staff are really nice and the place is kept clean and tidy. It has a simple, modern design which works, plus they also sell merch if you want a cup, hat or t-shirt! The location isn't very big, but there's plenty of seating inside, as well as outlets to use if you're going here to study, browse or just relax. They also sell a range of beer and wines, so you can get a lil chaser of your favourite tipple, which is great because it's open from 7am-9pm, so you can walk right out onto the main road which is full of bars if you want to keep the party going. The coffee is rich and tasty, plus they do a small selection of pastries and breakfast tacos (Tacodeli) in the morning. Warning, the Tacos go QUICK if you're looking start with the handheld bundles of joy. Overall, it's a great coffeshop for the coffee itself, its atmosphere, placement, and selection of drinks.

    Soy milk latte

    Houndstooth is in all likelihood the best coffee shop at the Domain. Specializing in high quality beans and offering a rotating selection of single origin espresso, the baristas working there are usually knowledgeable and, so far, after several years visiting, have never messed up a coffee order of mine. The overall ambiance is casual and the staff is a special kind of blasé hipster you almost exclusively find working in third wave coffee shops. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, because you can usually count on these individuals to do their job well. Just don't expect too much enthusiasm and you won't be disappointed. The location on Rock Rose Ave is convenient and the shop stays open a bit later than some other businesses around. Kudos. The only thing missing to Houndstooth is a soul. It could be more cozy and welcoming. But if you're just going for the coffee, it's great.

    Matcha latte, tea set
    Grace D.

    I've come a couple times with friends to study/hang out. It's not terribly busy on the weekends, especially if you come early around 9am. Their menu looks pretty solid but I've only had their matcha latte and it hits the spot. The default is unsweetened but you can ask for honey/sugar and the latte comes out warm. If you like your drinks hot, def let your barista know.

    Chocolate chai oat latte
    Desiree A.

    I met a new friend here and absolutely loved it. My chocolate chai latte was made to perfection and incredible! Probably my favorite in Austin tied with Patika. The bean n cheese taco I ordered also hit the spot and was from Taco Deli. Highly recommend that too. The baristas were nice and answered my friends questions. The atmosphere was chill with a mix of college aged and CEO type folks. I'll be back for sure!

    The good: really good coffee. I tried the coffee and lemonade combination and it tasted pretty good, I don't think there's a place that can pull off this combo well The bad: The wifi, even when connected, was so slow that I had to use the internet from the Sweetgreen next door. Also, all of the charging ports were for USB outlets, which meant I couldn't charge my laptop while working.

    Matcha latte with some vanilla syrup
    Ximena S.

    We had a matcha latte and an americano (time piece blend). I was surprised on how fast both drinks were made, which made me a bit doubtful about their quality. The matcha was OK, nothing different from any other place. The americano was smooth but the water added was too hot, had to ask for ice to bring it to drinking temperature. Service was polite but my daughter saw the barista pull something out of his teeth with his fingers right before making my coffee ... The space is small, modern and quiet enough for study or to have a conversation.

    I came here with a friend while in Austin. We were in Domin, looked for local coffee places and found this one. Super cute and cozy! Coffee was really good. Service was also great! I highly recommend it

    I work around the area, but I rarely come to Houndstooth because I love trying new coffee places. My boyfriend and I stopped by before my work to grab a coffee, and I was really impressed with their classic iced vanilla latte. The flavor was perfect, and it was just as creamy as I typically prefer it. I will definitely keep Houndstooth in mind the next time I'm in need of caffeine and at the Domain. Their staff is really friendly too, and I ADORE their chocolate chip cookies with sea salt.

    Coffee was great. It is a bad place to work. Minimal outlets and WiFi did not work. Paid $6.50 only to have to a different coffee shop.

    Frost Gelato is one of our favorite dessert spots in the Domain, and we find ourselves coming back…read moreagain and again. We absolutely love the gelato here because the flavors are rich and delicious without being overly sweet. It's become one of our go-to places whenever we're craving something sweet. Every time we visit, we tell ourselves we're going to try a new flavor, but somehow we always end up choosing the same two favorites: Pistachio and Peanut Butter. They're just that good! If it's your first time visiting Frost Gelato, I highly recommend trying these two flavors. They're our absolute favorites, and we keep coming back to them every single time!

We…read morepicked this place because my cousin had friends who used to work here during high school, but this was my first time stepping foot inside. I've had my fair share of ice cream and gelato, and I can solidly say that this place is decent. The gelato is creamy and soft, and the flavors are pretty good. They also have a large array of flavors, so there's definitely something for everyone. My biggest complaint would probably be the price. $7 for the smallest size isn't terrible, but compared to other ice cream spots around Austin, it does feel a little expensive. For example, Jeni's also charges around $7 for its smallest size, but you get noticeably more. Overall, this is a solid spot if you're looking for a refreshing gelato on a hot Austin day. I enjoyed it, but with the price and the number of other ice cream and gelato options around, I'm not sure it would be my first choice.

When we arrived, there was not an open table in the main lobby. I kind of expected the cafe to be empty or just slightly busy. I did not expect it to be slammed. On top of it, there was only one barista working behind the counter, and she was absolutely burning through those espresso shots. As we waited in line, she would alternate between getting a few orders out and taking a few orders. She was honestly a star for that. I ordered the signature Honey Lavender Latte while my girlfriend got the Blueberry Ube Matcha. As we waited for our drinks, I made a craft pinwheel they had laying around and couldn't help but notice all the Capital One branding around me. It felt like the Taco Bells in Demolition Man. Everything is Capital One now. Around the cafe, like the commercials you can't help but see with your favorite celebrity icons during any sporting event, are Capital One employees there to help you open credit cards and other things. That wasn't my purpose inside the cafe, but they're there. Once we got our coffees, I stepped outside and drank the entire thing in mere seconds. I was hot, I was thirsty, and I drank my coffee. It wasn't anything special, but it was not a bad coffee. Maybe just a little sweeter than I expected. Overall, as a Capital One cardholder, I don't hate the perk of $3.50 lattes in our current financial state, and I'll definitely make more stops when I'm back at The Domain as long as I can ignore the propaganda.
