It is off of shoal creek in a strip mall in the back not visible from the Main Street. The shop is co-located with a yoga practice and this atomically generated the social vibe that is hard to find. They are serious about coffee here. They roast their own coffee beans here. There are several world-famous baristas (ask them about the world competitions they are part of) serving up the brew who are super knowledgeable about coffee and coffee late art. I highly recommend everyone come by and get the the taste of what the one of the best coffee shops in Austin! PS come on Sunday mornings for weekly Porsche car show in the parking lot!

What a great gem in North Austin! My friend found Flora on Yelp. We weren't familiar with this…read morecoffee shop prior to visiting. I was a little confused when I drove up because I didn't realize that it's inside the Retreat Yoga Studio. There is a neon sign on the window as well as an A-Frame Sign near the entrance to let you know you're in the right place. Parking is plentiful in the shopping center. Because it's in a Yoga Studio, there isn't much seating (though they did have tables set up outside). The vibe was relaxing and calm. I don't know what scent they had in there, but it smelled nice. This wouldn't be a place to study or work as the seating is limited and I didn't see many outlets. There was a small area with bar stools if you need a tabletop, but most of the seating was couches and lounge chairs. It's more of a place to relax or catch up with a friend. I love when coffee shops have signature drinks. I ordered the Cajeta Crème Brûlée Cappuccino. It was so good, but it came in a small cup. The smoky sea salt was delicious! I don't typically care for sea salt in beverages, but it complimented the flavors so well! I asked the barista to sub oat milk which they were able to do but he informed me that some of the ingredients had dairy (which was fine). I appreciated the disclosure. I was able to drink it without any issues. Because my drink was so small, I decided to order a second one. I went with the Ginger Snap Latte (with oat milk) and it was tasty! I didn't like it as much as the Cajeta Crème Brûlée, but it was really good. I was happy that it was served in a larger cup. The space had plants as well as merch like clothing, scented candles, soaps, and jewelry (which was beautiful). The bathrooms were very clean and had feminine hygiene products as well as a basket with bobby pins and hair ties. I love the attention to detail! We were there close to closing time (3 pm). I appreciated that one of the employees let us know that they would be closing without forcing us to get up and leave. It was on par with the gentle and calming vibe of the space.

(visited in Oct 2025- late review)…read more I'm so glad Austin is beginning to amp up their coffee scene, especially on the Asian-influenced side. I loved the aesthetic of this place, and their menu offered a good selection of coffee/matcha drinks. I got the matcha coco cloud (not pictured), and it was good. All of their matcha drinks are made-to-order which is another good sign. There was plenty of seating inside for groups up to 4, and a lot of people were studying/hanging out when I went. It was a little noisy given how crowded it was, so headphones are a must if you're looking for some quiet. Parking was not bad either since we parked in the garage close by, but it was limited to 30-mins max on the 1st floor, so I'm not sure where people who stay longer park.

The servers at Summer Moon are always super friendly. Today was no different. They act as though they're operating in a zen environment.

It was a bit disappointing to learn there were no more tacos. Sometimes it is just the pure luck. Today, was my unlucky second taco day.

The muffin was dry, cold and when I attempted to break off pieces of it to eat it just crumbled in my hands. The taste was that of dry day, old bread, without much flavor. My coffee was a disappointment, as well Although I ordered my latte, hot and specifically asked for no foam, neither request was really honored The coffee was lukewarm and you may be able to tell by the picture there was quite a bit of foam, Plus left a good amount of space between where the drink ended with the foam and the top. Service was friendly and welcoming My first visit was much better, so I will give them at least one more try, but with as expensive as lattes are these days I wish barista's paid more attention to the details It sure is a factor in determining where I want to go for my latte fix.

Barrett has a lot going for it, but I stopped going because the parking and accessibility situation…read morebecame too much of a hassle. The coffee shop itself is good. Nice space, good mix of seating, wifi, local feel, and friendly staff. Their seasonal drinks were usually fun, the bottled horchata cold brew was great when they actually had it, and buying a quart of regular cold brew was convenient. I also remember them being one of the first places around here doing nitro cold brew. No pour overs, but the drip was solid enough when you wanted something hot. I still own a couple of their t-shirts, so clearly I liked the place. The issue is getting there. The lot is small, uneven, and full of bumps, rocks, and holes, which is not easy when you use a cane. They used to have a handicap space, but the line faded and the sign disappeared. I would drive by hoping for parking, but that intersection is not one I want to circle around more than once. Even going with my husband, it could still be awkward to get in from some spots. For me, it just stopped being worth the effort. These days I usually go to Dog Days instead. It is still a walk from the garage, but much easier to navigate.

Flash Brew - I was exhausted and needed a wake up call. This did just that, kicking me in the face with a blast of bitterness. Plus it's refreshing with the coolness which helps me with the heat. A flash brew in general emphasizes the coffee and this helped me appreciate Barrett's coffee beans. Strong bitterness to shock the system early in the morning!

This was my first visit to Dog Day Coffee & Nitro. Guess the coffee detox program didn't work…read more Smile. I was lured into Dog Day by their great Yelp rating 4.6/5. Dog Day is located on Burnet Road. When I walked into Dog Day I was fascinated by what was going on inside. There are dog pictures on the walls for sell. These cute little doggie pictures are for sale with the scan of their respective QR code. They also have nitro coffee. If you're unfamiliar with nitro coffee, you're not alone. Here's the scoop...Nitro coffee begins as cold brew and is then infused with nitrogen gas, which creates tiny little bubbles that give it a creamy, velvety texture. It has the foaminess of beer. Important to note, it has no alcohol. They have an assortment of food- pastries, tacos and sandwiches. The coffee shop is large with seating space on both sides of the coffee shop. There is also outside seating. I ordered the matcha latte and a migas taco with potato and avocado. The matcha latte was initially too matcha-y. I added a lavender flavoring and it was perfect. The migas taco was especially tasty. Mark, the barista, was very friendly and accommodating. He said that Dog Day had been open for 1.5 years and the name was based on a love for dogs...surprise, surprise. Smile.

They also brought out traditional snacks such as finger sandwiches (cucumber + cheese, ham & cheese, etc.), scones, and a variety of sweet treats. Every item was so tasty and the portions were generous. Service was good, efficient and friendly. They even have an outdoor play area for kids, and some days offer live music and other events.

The coffee was decent- mostly what stands out to me is the open food pantry that has my attention. What a lovely idea.
