I ordered the Affogato and a coffee. Let me tell you that was the best affogato I have ever had outside of Italy. The ice cream in there was soooo good. Coffee tasted great too. The seating area had this cozy little corner with comfy chairs like in a living room. Loved the ambiance. Highly recommend if you are in the area.

I was intrigued by their Huey Lewis drink, so I decided to give it a try. Much like an Arnold Palmer (half lemonade, half sweet tea) this drink was half lemonade, half coffee. I liked it! It felt like Arnold Palmer's grown up cousin - less sweet, with more bold espresso taste. The barista was very kind and answered all my questions. I would definitely return!

Some of their speciality lattes (like the Remember Me one fall) have been so delicious that I've braved the trek downtown, searching for a parking spot in the middle of my workday, just to get one as an afternoon pick-me-up. I also love the 1885 drink, which is Dr Pepper + espresso. It sounds crazy, but a Waco girl loves it. I will say, ever since the inside was re-painted as a weird, tentacle-esque, purple and orange mural, the ambiance has tanked. It used to feel like a peaceful, vibey spot, especially at night or during the holidays. Now the walls make my skin crawl a bit. Maybe some people love it--I usually hear the opposite But it's still worth going for the drinks!

I couldn't taste cinnamon so much til I was almost done. It's good coffee, but nothing special even with the descriptive notes for their drinks. It feels industrial inside. Nice bathrooms, spacious layout towards the back. Comfortable seatings and plenty of tables.

The line…read morewas out the door, but moving fairly quickly, taking us about 10 minute from outside to the counter. They were controlling the line and crowds well. Magnolia Press is their house coffee shop serving up all the coffee house classic beverages and snacks. Beverages were all the basics with a few specialty drinks, both hot and cold. The food was standard breakfast sandwiches and pastries. Prices for everything were moderate, but expected. I went with an iced mocha and chocolate croissant, while my partner went with a breakfast croissant. The food came out a few minutes before the drink, so we munched on the goods while we waited for the coffee. The food was good and the drink was tasty. It hit the spot for sure! The flow can get a bit backed up depending on how busy the baristas are...and they were busy! We waited a longer time after ordering than we did in line to order, but neither wait was egregiously long. Once we got the coffee, we made our way outside to the courtyard. We passed the small, but cute dining room. The space is gorgeous, perfect coffee house and Magnolia vibes. Overall, great entry point to the market. Lovely vibes and decent coffee!

Thrst specializes in carefully crafted lattes with the highest quality beans that's expertly roasted locally. It's also a small business, and if you follow my reviews, you know that I'm all about supporting small businesses as opposed to the large chains. The menu offers signature drinks such as their Cafe de Olla and Mexican Mocha. They also offer the more common drinks like latte, americano, cappuccino and teas. They also have delicious looking pastries! I wasn't sure what to order and the owner, Andreas, took the time to describe some of their signature drinks to me. I decided to get a medium Hot Café De Olla Latte, which is described as the perfect blend of espresso, piloncillo, cinnamon and oat milk. It was smooth, creamy and divine! I also ordered a cinnamon twist, and it was absolutely delicious! The interior is rather large, with a coffee bar and tables throughout. Seems like a great place to study or hang out with friends. Another great thing about this place is that they open early, like 6:30am on weekdays. Many of the other local coffee shops open later. The only drawback is the parking sitch. It seemed that many of the spots nearby were reserved for specific businesses. I didn't find any specifically for Thrst, so I had to park down the street and walk a little ways. Overall, this is a solid coffee shop and I highly recommend supporting this small business!
