    Marciano cherry muddled mezcal margarita
    Airon A.

    Nate's Coffee & Cocktails is a coffee shop during the day and a local bar at night. It is located on Main Street in Buda, TX. They have a variety of entertainment including live music and comedy shows every other Monday night. They have a full service bar with a variety of adult beverages. They also have a picturesque patio with ample seating and fire pits around big oak trees. They make a custom cocktail for me from their in house made Marciano cherries. I get a muddled Marciano cherry margarita with mezcal and it is an amazing drink. They have patio service as well to make sure you are taken care of when you need to order another drink.

    Nate's is located in the Buda Mill & Grain complex and it's a coffee & cocktail bar. You can have drinks of all kinds (coffee, tea, beer, mocktails, cocktails) at any time. The fall menu is in full swing so I opted for the iced butterscotch latte and it was scrumptious and refreshing on a 90 degree, sunny fall day! I like the vibe here. There's a large bar with different seating areas as well from little booths to a living area seating set up. They have a huge outdoor patio with umbrellas and ample seating for large groups. Dogs welcome!

    Jacob gave great service and made a very impressive espresso martini. The bar atmosphere was great as well!

    I have a subconscious contention when determining night time hangouts; style vs substance. What goes into this mental assessment is ambiance, quality of drinks and/or food, live music and convenience. Obviously, all amenities aren't present at each establishment so I weigh it accordingly. Now, I rather like the quaint and small town feel of mainstreet USA in Buda so I have an affinity already built into my selection. Which brings me to Nate's. A small but very much Austin-esc vibe contained in a little bar with a huge picturesque deck dominated by old oaks growing through the frame. Off the bat I'll note that since they don't have a food menu but they do allow outside food to be brought into the facilities. With that being said there are a few really good restaurants and which don't mind making your food to go. This all means it's a collaborative effort between the restaurants and I definitely appreciate the openness. Walking in the bar is the dominate feature running the length of the establishment. Its ceilings are wide open with huge white beams. While I'm no structural engineer I surmise the building must have been an old railhouse converted into a solon or at least that's the vibe I get. Also note, I've noticed this in another restaurant in Kyle, but whatever they clean with STINKS. Something about it really turns my stomach, but that's just me. The bathrooms are decent but as the drinks flow, the concern diminishes.... Now the staff are friendly and fast however even in slow times their attention wavers a bit. I asked for a coffee hot and got it cold, but it was fairly decent in terms of flavor. My girlfriend got a rita and wasn't impressed. This was all on the first visit mind you. The second visit was later at night and I got to hang out with the firepits. I gotta admit being under the stars on a cool March night with the lights strung through the Oak tree a fire warming my body and my girlfriend at my side made for a perfect evening. My drinks weren't complex so I can't really complain about much but give high praise. Finally since they're pet friendly my winglady was extremely happy with her "Paris Hilton" pet in tote. Overall, the drinks aren't exactly the talk of the town but after a few on one of the best porches in town it can be quickly overlooked. The place is safe the waitstaff are decent and the prices are comparable. Again, while not having a food menu, other restaurants more than adequately make up the difference if you're willing to walk a couple extra steps. Would I go again? You betcha and I'll be the one on the porch with a cocktail and a smile on my face.

    Not sure what this rose drink is called that Cortney recommended but it's yummy

    Maddie & Cortney are amazing! This is my first time in and they are so welcoming and friendly. Lots of recommendations for different drinks. Love this place and can't wait to come back

    Dirty Chai Latte

    Buda on Main Street is one of the cutest treasures. This was a great point to stop and park and make a day of it if you want to walk the whole Main Street. I loved this little plaza and on a cold but beautiful Saturday, my friend and I were almost the only ones inside at 11:30AM. I got a dirty chai latter with oat milk to go even though we sat on a lovely couch in the back for a few hours catching up. It's such a cozy place with a few nooks and tables off to the side around the bigger main bar. She has champagne. I do t know that I've ever seen a full bar and coffee place before...maybe that's strange for me and I haven't lived LOL. The bartender did say that we are welcome to bring in our own food from a surrounding restaurant as they didn't have a kitchen but we just drank our beverages for the couple of hours we were there. Very cute spot. The surrounding shops were really special with local Buda wares that make lovely gifts and keepsakes. I can't believe I live 15 minutes away and haven't been before.

    We did a day trip to Buda and Kyle today. I found @losolivosmarket_buda when searching for a restaurant with outdoor seating. It turns out that midday the sun is beating down there so we ended up @natesbuda patio. We ordered Barbacoa Doughnuts (the best dish), Foie Gras Tartine, Squid Ink Carbonara, Grilled Chicken Thigh and Seared Butternut Squash. The food was unique and pretty good. We ordered drinks from @natesbuda. I had the Queen of Hearts, my husband had the draft Eastcider and my Dad had Lemonade. The patio was perfectly shaded under the trees and there were fans and misters. After lunch, we shopped @losolivosmarket_buda for jams and sauces.

    Comedy Night every other Monday.

    See all

Meridian is in downtown Buda and is connected to Zoi Wellness. We were able to park in the parking lot across the street. Upon walking in, the space had a rustic loft feel with lots of greenery. The furniture made it feel very cozy. I honestly didn't expect to find a coffee shop like this in Buda. The barista was very nice and gave recommendations. My mom and I both ordered Iced Pecan Pie Lattes which was a seasonal drink that they were featuring. We ordered our drinks to go, but then decided to sit in the cafe and enjoy our beverages. The coffee is legit! We both liked our beverages. I really enjoyed the pecan flavor and the sweetness level was perfect. The barista informed us that they make all of their syrups in house. I noticed that there were plenty of outlets for work or study. There's quite a bit of seating including couches. They have QR codes at each table that you can order from which is so convenient. In addition to coffee (which is served until 5 pm), they also have wellness drinks, wine, beer and cocktails. They have a nice sized stage for live music. I would love to go back in the evening for a cocktail and live music! I'm so happy to have discovered this gem in Buda!

I have to say this was some of the best shrimp and grits I've had. The portion was perfect, not too heavy on the grits and plenty of gravy, perfectly seasoned and perfectly cooked jumbo shrimp. As I looked over the menu, I realized that they have some amazing seafood choices and their raw oysters on the half shell are very high-quality for the area. Our service was wonderful. Our server was very attentive and offered coffee refills on the regular. The restaurant itself and bar are so well decorated. It's such a comfortable place. What makes it even better is they have a huge covered outdoor area for overflow or if you just want to sit outside. Everything about Taste on Main makes it one of my favorites in the area. I will definitely be back, I may become a regular.

Below par for the Chicken fried steak w potatoes, green beans (flavorless) and I don't know but I expected the Ceviche salmon to be..more. Not entirely a bad experience. I'd be willing to try other items on their menu next time round.

Now that the foundation has settled, let's dive in: SERVICE: The baristas have gotten much better (or were let go and replaced) and are much more competent than the first few months. FOOD: While they still don't offer food except for light local pastries, the food truck vendors have changed and NOT in a good way. I always come for my coffee and breakfast taco, but the recent change has been a huge let down (cash/zelle/venmo ONLY, inconsistent hours). Progress needs to monitor their food trucks better and revisit those contracts PARKING: Now that Progress has subleased a portion of their building to an insurance agent, the alternate lot is reserved for insurance patrons only. Parking is already frustrating to begin with. Open the grass lot and expand parking!! COFFEE: Once again, the signature coffees are just not for me... they're too sweet or light.

We walked in, told the person at the front our name and were seated quickly. The restaurant is nice. It includes a little market in one section with various food items that you can purchase. There is also a seating area with couches near the market section. The restaurant has different sized tables for seating. Not long after being seated we were greeted by a waiter that did an excellent job taking care of us the entire time we were there. He took our drink order, gave us menus and some time to decide what we wanted. After a few minutes he brought us our waters and took our order. We ordered several items. El Olivo which is a garlic bread. It was okay. The bread was good. It was nice and warm and the garlic flavor was all on top. Whipped Feta which comes with grilled Naan and cucumber slices. The Naan was okay. It was a little cold and needed to be warmed up a little more for my liking but my kids ate it up. The cucumbers were fresh and crisp and the whipped feta was pretty good. It had a slight lemon flavor but not enough to where you could taste the lemon with every bite. Pork belly chicharron which had pork with avacado covered in a sauce. It came with tortilla chips. The tortilla chips were thick and crispy. Perfect for scooping up some of the pork belly. The pork belly was delicious. The sauce that covered it added flavor and the avacado was fresh. The Lamb chops came with Lamb, carrots and a puree. The lamb itself was excellent. It was cooked perfectly and was tender with each bite. The carrots were slightly sweet and the puree was soft. It was a good mix of different textures with each bite. The Truffle mac and cheese was a macaroni and cheese with chives and truffle flavor. This was very tasty. The macaroni was tender, the chives were spread out and added that slight onion flavor. The cheese was very flavorful. One of my kids ate almost all of this. Barbacoa Doughnuts which are mini doughnuts filled with barbacoa topped with a salsa. I don't really like barbacoa but I tried them and was pleasantly surprised. These were delicious. It was basically a soft and warm mini doughnut filled with flavorful barbacoa. The sauce on it added a slight spicy flavor. Patatas Bravas are potatoes with salsa and a garlic aioli sauce. These were very tasty. That salsa and aioli sauce are what gave this dish all of its yummy flavor. The potatoes had a crispy exterior with a soft interior. All of the ingredients mixed together made a very good side dish. One of my sons ordered the Dos Olivos Burger with Tater Tots. He said that the burger was okay. I tried it and I agreed. The tater tots were good. He ate those up with some ketchup. My other son ordered the Fried Chicken Sandwiches with everything on the side. He substituted a salad instead of the fries. He ate the salad up. He also ate the Fried chicken from the sandwich. He said it was good. He is not a fan of sesame seed bread so he opted not to eat the bun. I tried the red cabbage apple slaw that it comes with and it was okay. Lastly I ordered the Beet Salad which comes with beets, pears, and candied pecans. I don't usually eat beets but I wanted to try it. It was very good. The beet chunks were large and soft but not overly soft. The pears and the candied pecans added a crispier texture and the mixture of all of the ingredients along with the sauce that was on it made this a super sweet beet salad. Almost like a dessert. It was delicious. Overall the restaurant is a cool spot to visit. The market is a neat addition that adds to the ambiance of the restaurant. The service was excellent and the food was delicious.
