Great little caffeine stop in the morning while we set about our day. Nice strong cappuccino in a perfect size cup. Love when a coffee shop smells so inviting . Service was great and my coffee came out steaming hot. Nice casual local spot with seating inside . Loved all the windows so you can watch people and the world go by. They have a full coffee and tea menu and offer pastries and other breakfast items. Located in a hotel but easy access for anyone not staying here too. Gave me the boost for the day.

Coffee Shop No. 508 Niche Coffee Co. San Antonio, TX June 10, 2025 From across the street, my first glance of Niche Coffee Company gave me the impression there was some rich history inside the building; so I had to look it up while waiting on my cortado. Turns out the cafe sits on the corner of The Riverwalk Plaza Hotel; once the garage to The Plaza Hotel. It was once boasted as the "finest hotel in the South" during the 1920's. The Plaza stood on an island in the San Antonio River up until 1926 when the water was channeled away in flood-control work. The building is not as lavish it was during its heyday golden era, but the bones are still there. Spanish heritage remains in the arches, carved stone and tile floors. I found the location to be captivatingly beautiful. Niche Coffee Co.and their friendly baristas now welcomes coffee lovers on the corner street level of The Riverwalk Plaza. The cafe is modern yet comfortable and cozy. I read a couple chapters of a book and sipped happily on my very well made cortado. It was bold in flavor and served at a perfect temperature so it was smooth and velvety just the way I like it. The shop uses coffee beans from Quantum Coffee Roasters, a local San Antonio roaster. Enjoying life one cortado at a time!

Oatmeal coco chip latte and beans

This location is in the corner of the building in the Riverwalk Plaza hotel. It is small with only a few tables but is airy and open with lots of natural lighting. It was later in the afternoon so it wasn't busy. I ordered the oatmeal chocolate chip cookie latte, it is with oat milk. I like that the drink was designed around oat milk. It is tasty. I used to go to their food truck but this is the first time in this location. It is definitely a drink worth checking out.

Definitely consider this a hidden gem. I love that they were open early and the barista was very helpful and helping me pick a seasonal beverage for my sister!

This is a cozy coffee shop, staff were friendly. Too bad there was not a big selection in pastries and coffee took alittle long to be served We appreciate that they were open at 7am

Great place

Good coffee. Limited seating caused us to have to go to the hotel lobby with no WiFi. Online ordering was helpful.

Short focused drink menu, no real food options, but a darn good espresso. It takes time to craft the drinks, but worth the wait.

Coffee was bland and no flavor. Americano was watered down. I felt as though gas station coffee had more flavor.

However, when it was finally served, it appeared completely clear, which left me a bit confused about the preparation process. I originally stopped in for the prerolls, but due to a recent ban or restriction, they were unavailable. Unfortunately, the cashier didn't seem very interested in suggesting alternative products or helping me find a comparable option. Overall, the experience didn't leave much of an impression. Between the average drinks, limited product availability, and lack of engagement from the staff, I don't see myself returning.

I stopped by as I was riding through downtown and spotted a parking spot at the entrance. I immediately embraced the vibe as it's a coffee LOUNGE! Both of which I love. They offer traditional coffee drinks and appetizers. I'm n addition, they also offer beer, wine, pastries and cannabis options. In order my usual iced vanilla latte and also order a dandelion/chamomile tea. Service was fast and friendly, like I like it . And the coffee was great! I'll definitely be back when it n the downtown area. I can imagine stopping in more for coffee to accommodate a downtown stroll.

I got the breakfast croissant with eggs, cheese, chorizo and spinach and it was soo good. The chorizo wasn't too oily and the entire mixture felt well balanced. It was one of the most buttery croissants I've had in a while. I also had the muddy pumpkin, it was perfectly sweet and not too pumpkin flavored. If I lived there it'd be a regular stop of mine.

For two iced lattes, a kid's French toast with berries and an avocado toast with an egg we paid $40. The avocado toast was nothing to rave about. It lacked flavor.. The coffee was good but not the best I've had in San Antonio. The French toast was the best thing we had during the visit. The location itself is what brought us to this location as we wanted to have a morning coffee and allow our little one to have fun at the park next to the business. You do have to park in the garage as it is almost impossible to find street parking. But that's common in this area. They also will not validate your parking so be prepared to pay for your expected time here.
