Coffee is great, service is not good. Took 40 mins to make 2 lattes. Has happened twice. Ordered online to avoid waiting and it wasn't ready after 25 mins when I got there. Took an additional 15 mins after asking about my order at the window. Moral of the story, don't order online read more

I've heard about this place by my cousins b/c they have gone a handful of times and this was my first. They had the Valentine's Menu already out and I got the Velvet Armadillo which was a red velvet cake latte that I got with soy milk, cream cheese cold foam and red velvet crumble. I enjoyed the drink even though plot twist I am not a big red velvet fan. I had never had a beignet, so we got the 3ct one not the valentine one. I will say it was hot and fresh and great. From what I read online Later Gator has Louisiana roots so basically you can say this was the closest I will get to one til I make it to Louisiana. The barista was very nice and patient while it took me time to get my order right. read more

Later Gater Coffee (love the name) is located on S. Congress in "The Lawn" food truck park...not too far from St. Edward's University. Love food trucks...it was a most delightful coffee find. The food truck manager provided different combinations of Matcha lattes made with (Oat, Whole or Coconut Milk) topped with Black Cherry cold foam. My latte of choice was with coconut milk. Wow...the combination of flavors had your mouth rejoicing. I found the latte so enjoyable to drink. The food truck manager was extremely prepared and incredibly personable. The food truck was quite eye-catching in vivid purple with their lattes even more memorable. Overall, Later Gator customers exuded a very chill vibe... Whenever I am in the area, I will definitely be trying more of their latte offerings. read more

Later Gator is tucked away on South congress at "the Lawn" and is now one of my favorite matcha spots, what a lovely hidden gem! I had the pleasure of trying their matcha w/ oat milk and black berry cold foam today! The cold foam really elevated the matcha! It was phenomenal! The service was very friendly and welcoming! Really nice flavor combinations, beautiful coffee truck with a nice attention to detail. I will be back again! read more

Visited on a Sunday afternoon at around 2 pm. Great customer service and drinks were delicious. Parked on the street, parking was not free on a Sunday in this area. Lots of space in the patio to sit, read and enjoy our coffee and beignets. Loved their options on their holiday menu as well as their original menu. read more

Rating: 4.6/5 Later Gator Coffee is a cute pink truck located at the Lawn. I stopped by on a Saturday afternoon and was pleasantly surprised to find no line. I ordered one of their summer specials--the Meringue Gator ($7) with oat milk (+$0.75). It's a coconut and white chocolate matcha topped with meringue cold foam and toasted coconut flakes. I expected it to be super sweet and heavy, but it was actually perfectly balanced. All the flavors blended beautifully, making it feel like a refreshing treat rather than a dessert overload. I'm definitely coming back to try more of their drinks! read more

What a cute little coffee (and more importantly, matcha!) truck Head on over to Drinks Backyard to find this gem. Their lot is small in the front, but plenty of parking in the rear of the building. Walking up, you are greeted by some little gator plushies, and even at the window there are some fun little gator Easter eggs to see. Barista was super nice and recommended a type of milk for me that would go best with the drink I ordered (The Gator). Matcha seemed good quality and WOW the cold foam was so delicious. Also got to try the beignets which here are a little bit like donuts with powdered sugar on top. They also have other toppings for them, which I'd love to try next time. They came out PIPING hot & were delicious even after I drove them home (~20 min post-fry). Finally please note they have a punch card reward system, which is valid at both locations - they just opened on S Congress too. Will be back for more of their fun drinks. read more

Later Gator Coffee is such a gem! The coffee and tea are both excellent -- you can really tell they put care into every drink. I'm also a huge fan of their beignets -- absolutely delicious! I love that the whole place is Louisiana-themed; the vibes are so fun, welcoming, and unique. The staff is incredibly friendly and makes you feel right at home. I also love that they have games and books you can enjoy while you hang out at the picnic tables outside. It's the perfect spot to relax and enjoy good company. Parking can be a little tight up front, but there's plenty of parking available in the back, so it's never an issue. Highly recommend checking them out -- you'll be glad you did! read more

Came across this trailer almost by accident back in August (so a little delayed on my review by a few months), but very happy that I did. The breakfast tacos were wonderful, but it was the beignets that were out of this world. So soft & pillowy; I could have eaten 20! I went just for the original ones with powdered sugar and I'm obsessed. I'm not a tea drinker but I tried one of the drinks that had lemonade, juice & green tea which was delicious and I would certainly get again. The little area it is parked in was nice and I liked that they had a little shelf with some games on it whilst we were waiting for our food. read more

So excited to have a quality new coffee spot in SE Austin! Stumbled upon the cute truck at drinks backyard and had to come back for my espresso fix! Being a Louisiana truck we don't get beignets often around here so really enjoyed those as well as the tasty roasted espresso and their sweet cold foam was delightful! Friendly service from the owner and can't wait to try all the other tasty drinks. read more

Cute coffee truck with super friendly employees and tasty drinks! Prices are average for coffee around the city.

This little truck serves up seriously excellent coffee and some of the best beignets. Whether you're a black coffee purist or into oat milk lattes, they've got you covered. The beignets. Pillowy, golden, and dusted with just the right amount of powdered sugar. Fresh out of the fryer and still warm, they pair beautifully with the coffee. The staff are warm, quick, and clearly love what they do. It's the kind of place that feels like a local secret. read more

The cutest coffee truck! I had the gator (matcha) and the porch swing (iced tea) and both were so so flavorful. Can't wait to try the other drinks on the menu as well as the beignets! The owners are such great people too! read more

It's a cute coffee shop with good service, but it's good if you like very sweet coffee (not a bad thing just not everyone's cup of joe). There was def. more milk and sugar than coffee itself so maybe ask for less if that's not your thing. It is a bit far out, but it's good if you want a sweet treat or a new place! read more

The pelican was delicious. I got it with whipped cream and I didn't want it to end. My friend got plain cold brew and it was actually disgusting though beignets were pretty good. The ones with blackberry were tasty as well. read more

Literally amazing! I love their pelican coffee! The seasonal drinks don't beat the pelican but are great fun little treats! I wish the beignets were lighter and fluffier but that's my preference. read more
