    I tried this new coffee spot after hearing about their amazing pastries, and I can see why it's so popular--they even had a line out the door! I ordered the horchata nitro cold brew, and let me tell you, if you have a high tolerance for caffeine, this drink is for you! It was flavorful and delicious, but definitely a little too strong for me. We also ordered a few pastries to go and shared a ham and cheese croissant. Every bite was amazing--the pastries had the perfect crispy, flaky exterior with a soft and buttery center. The ham and cheese croissant was just as delicious and made for a great savory option. The ambiance was chic and modern, making it a great spot to sit and enjoy your coffee or grab a few pastries on the go. I'd definitely come back, though next time I might opt for a less caffeinated drink!

    The influencers got me on this one. Pros: -line that might be long will move quickly -kept it pretty clean considering the amount of traffic that runs through there -no laptops!! -beautiful food -the bake on the savory items was good Cons: -smoked salmon was the saltiest salmon I've ever had and I love me a lox bagel so.... -there was egg (not listed on the menu) on the ham and cheese focaccia -dried out almond croissant -$15 for HALF a sandwich, that's nuts idc what u say Do with that what you will.

    I was excited to see a seed oil free bakery opening in Central Austin. My little one has a soy allergy and unfortunately, far too many bakeries use margarine or soy-based oils to cook and bake. I was pleasantly surprised to see so many people there on a random weekday, so if you're with a large group, I would plan ahead and prepare to wait. When we arrived to order several things (juices, some pastries) were out of stock for the day, so I would also plan on being there before lunch if you want to grab a cold pressed juice or some of their popular pastries. Overall, the space is large and you can tell they put a lot of thought into curating art and decor to make it feel comfortable. As for the pastries, I had a muffin and a cookie. They were good, but I choose to order the offer cake muffin over the cookie next time as the coffee cake muffin was large, filling and perfectly sweetened. Prices are a big on the higher end for a bakery, but it is a nicer bakery located downtown so I wasn't shocked and expected prices to be elevated. If they had more of a food variety or different juice options, I'd probably be more inclined to stop in more often, but overall, I'm happy that we have another seed oil free establishment so I'll continue to support.

    The best laminated pastries I've found in Austin. Counter service was super friendly and line moved at a pretty good pace. Space is very cool; no WiFi available which I appreciate so people aren't there for hours taking up booths and tables. Seating area and coffee bar is cute. Got a ham and cheese croissant, pain suisse, Cinnamon roll and an everything danish for pastries. Was impressed with all of them. I also got a breakfast sandwich and it was good. I showed up around 7:30am, waited in line for 20-30min and spent $50+ and it was all worth it, imo.

    Grand Opening: Today, May 5, 2026 Cinco de Mayo Sugarwolf is a new addition to downtown Austin (4th and Guadalupe). This great recommendation was made by a Yelp friend. Before she recommended Sugarwolf, I had not heard of this coffee and pastry shop. We decided to brave the crowd at 7 am. I arrived first and saved a place for my friend. Perfect timing as she arrived when it was our turn to go into Sugarwolf. First impression...modern, clean architectural lines with a modern flare. Floor to ceiling windows emit an abundance of light. The chandeliers are quite unique in that they look like Chinese lanterns yet appear to be made from a cheesecloth like material. The space is open and airy. One word...striking! The music playing in the background contributed to making this experience a whole vibe. Sugarwolf specializes in high quality pastries and coffee drinks. We both purchased cinnamon rolls (large, mutant cinnamon rolls...enough for three people). The bakery uses organic flour, butter, and a seed oil free kitchen. The flavor and texture was quite nice. My friend also got a croissant to go. She purchased a hot smoked raspberry latte with matcha and I purchased an iced smoked raspberry latte. Both were exceptionally prepared. Watching the bakers work with customer views of the kitchen was an appealing part of the culinary experience. Everyone in the shop was super friendly and helpful. Please note the coffee shop is on the pricier side, but well worth the investment. Metered street parking is available nearby. Love new coffee shops and bakeries...yes I'm back on coffee. I lasted one day without coffee...smile.

    SUGAR WOLF!! Wow! You hit it out the park! The space is so beautiful, spacious and warm! Soft lighting and plenty of seating options! I was anticipating grand opening today and it did not disappoint. Their hours are from 7am-4p which perfect for early risers who don't like paying for parking. I got here around 7:12am there was a line. Thankfully it moved pretty quickly! The gentlemen taking my order was very kind and personable. He recommended the Pain Sussie. I went with the cinnamon roll and Pain Sussie! I also got a SMOKED RASPBERRY LATTE! Who's ever heard of such a drink?!? It even tasted magical. It had a nice balance of raspberry and the matcha was high grade. My pastries were fresh although it took a while to get the cinnamon roll it's their first day open so I'll give them grace. Very friendly staff and great customer service. Prices are expensive so keep that in mind. They also serve lunch and they have a coffee/cocktail bar open until 4pm.

    Black sesame matcha and smoked raspberry latte

    I'm willing to give it another try but our experience was just meh. We went around 11am and they were sold out of everything except cookies and the salmon sandwich from the bakery end. There was still a line out the door. We got the sandwich and two drinks. The sandwich was too salty for me and the bread was so chewy it didn't taste fresh. It was overpriced for what it was. The black sesame matcha didn't have much matcha flavor and there was almost no sesame flavor. It mostly just tasted like milk. The raspberry latte was okay but not anything special. There is a lot of seating inside, which was nice.

    My boyfriend and I were in the area and noticed a line outside the bakery, so we decided to wait in line too. Thankfully, it didn't take too long to get to the front. There is a limit of three pastries per guest. Since it was pretty busy, we ordered our pastries to go because we assumed there wouldn't be any seating available. Luckily, there was plenty of seating and we ended up eating there instead. For pastries, we ordered the pain au chocolat, butter croissant, cardamom bun, shakshouka focaccia, and French onion danish. The shakshouka focaccia was the standout and my personal favorite. For drinks, we got the smoked raspberry latte and the dirty latte. The dirty latte was good, but I preferred the smoked raspberry latte. The bakery was clean and organized, the staff was friendly, and the pastries and drinks felt creative and unique. I'm glad we stopped by to give them a try!

    Tldr: get there before 10:30 am for pastries, amazing chocolate chip cookie, no vegetarian lunch options, sour service. Came in on a Saturday at 11:30 am and there was a line past the entrance to the parking garage. One of the staff members came out and let us know all pastries were sold out, so if you have your heart set on pastries go prior to 10:30 am at least! Austin though has so many great pastries spots nearby (Matok, Swedish Hill, Rockman), so don't be disappointed if you miss the pastries. They however did have plenty of chocolate chip cookies (I did not see any other flavor) available as well as a coffee crumb muffin when we got to the front of line by 12:20 pm. The chocolate chip cookie was amazing - brown butter like, chewy with crispy edges and chocolate in every bite. The salt on top helped balance out the cookie to not make it overly sweet. Where I was most disappointed though was the service and lack of just one vegetarian option for lunch menu and the check out staff looking bored and unwilling to help/check to see if any accommodations could be made especially after waiting in line as we did. The person I had in check out line was a fairly young Asian lady and she looked like she couldn't be bothered to help and when I asked questions all I got was bored disinterested one word answer. She definitely didn't show Texas hospitality. Even options I thought could possibly be vegetarian such as herbed orchiette pasta salad had meat (and mind you I said I was vegetarian before placing the order and just was about to check out when my husband asked if there was any other vegetarian option she said no and then told us "oh the pasta salad isn't vegetarian". Girl why did you have me place the order then?!). I even tried to ask if maybe could do like the salmon sandwich with salmon on the side so my husband could eat it and all I got was an eye roll and "oh we sold out of that" and no offer of any alternative. I understand not every place needs a vegetarian option, but come on I have been to steak houses and barbecue places with vegetarian options. And you are in Austin, place known for having many vegetarians and vegans as well as a bakery so to not just have one vegetarian sandwich was disappointing. Atmosphere wise the place is gorgeous and has plenty of tables. Don't worry about trying to get a table before ordering - most people turn over pretty quickly so you will be able to get a spot after ordering. Parking wise no validated free parking available, so only paid street parking or garage parking.

    Cool bakery in the middle of downtown Austin. A short line went outside the store at 12pm on a Friday but it moved pretty quickly. They don't make anymore pastries after 11am so I was only able to grab a couple chocolate chip cookies. If you like underbaked cookies then you'll love these. Not my type of cookie so I can't say I liked them very much. The dirty latte was what you expect from a milk and soda combo. The dirty chai latte tasted watered down but the staff were kind about getting it swapped with a hibiscus tea. If I could say one thing based on what I got it would be to skip the baked good and drinks and go straight to just ordering the lunch sandwiches. The pastrami and French drip were the stars of the lunch order. The bread was sooo good and they don't skimp out on the meat. I would've given this place 3 stars but the sandwiches are what bumped this place to 4.

    The thought and care they took to make SugarWolf was great. For context it is pricey, but the quality was great. It being bakery the bread and pastries were very good. I got a burnt ends focaccia, oatmeal cream pie and a porchetta sandwich. The burnt ends focaccia was good the bread was excellent, the topping I expected a bit more of a smoky flavor. The tomato topping overpowered the burnt ends flavor. The porchetta was a good sandwich's again the bread is excellent, the pork was a bit underwhelming it felt on the blander side. The oatmeal cream pie no notes. You taste oatmeal and the cream was so good. Solid place the hype makes sense. Another note no laptops.

    Oatmeal Cream

    Run don't walk to Sugarwolf! This place is certainly worth the hype. Food: Scrumptious. With every bite, you can tell they are using fresh & quality ingredients. Everything we got (cookies, focaccia, oatmeal cream pie), we enjoyed. Atmospherics: 10/10. It's beautifully designed and very spacious, especially for downtown. Parking: There is a parking garage attached to it / directly beside it. (It's very fancy too.) I was there for a little less than 2 hours Saturday morning and was charged less than $7. Staff: So friendly! There was a long line when we went (about an hour wait) and one of the owners talked to the customers as we waited. It was nice getting to know more about him (a born & raised Austinite) and the restaurant. Shout out to you, Staton!

    I came two days after their grand opening around 9:15 AM, and there was a short line. There is a guy stationed at the front handing you a menu to look over while you wait and thanking you for coming, which is a nice touch. For being so new, they already have a great system for line management and flow. The staff were all nice and professional as well. If you ordered a drink, you pick it up at the end of the bar. French Onion Danish ($8): Fire. Such a yummy savory pastry and it doesn't taste heavy at all. Super flaky. Monkey Bread ($6): Delicious! Some bites are sweeter than others which keeps it interesting. The only thing was that one of the pieces was hanging off so the presentation wasn't as dialed in as the other pastries. Smokey Raspberry Latte ($8): You can choose between espresso and matcha so I went with espresso. I forgot to ask for oat milk so it came with whole milk. I like my coffee strong and though the latte was pretty milky so this one didn't really hit the mark for me. The smokey raspberry flavor was very subtle too and okay. Black Sesame Matcha ($8): This one comes with oat milk as the default which I love. The matcha flavor is subtle but it has a nice green color. Make sure to mix it well before drinking because the first few sips taste mostly like sweetener. After mixing it a few times the black sesame came through, though it was also pretty light. The pastries are the star here and worth the trip on their own. The drinks were a bit underwhelming for me but I still want to come back to try their bar and lunch menu.

    Rotisserie chicken with potatoes and bread + butter, what's not to like? Well, if your menu is…read moresimple and some of the items aren't cooked/baked that well, then it's going to be a letdown. Normally, I wouldn't ever order from a restaurant like this since none of the menu items satisfy a craving of mine, but I had a friend in town who was craving just this. Rotisserie Chicken (3/5) - sure it comes with some pretty tasty sauces (chipotle and salsa verde), but the chicken itself was actually quite dry. I'm sure it's juicier on most days, but this time the chicken was quite dry, even the dark meat portions. Baby Potatoes (4.5/5) - These were pretty flavorful and the roti sauce was a nice addition. But this style of roasted potato is probably on the lower tier of potato forms. So even though these were well done, it's not my favorite form of potato. Baguette with Butter (3/5) - The baguette wasn't really baked well. I got two of them and the outside was a bit too tough (slightly crunchy,but mostly on the hard side). I expected something crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, but the toughness of the crust made it difficult to enjoy the fluffier interior. Arugula salad (4/5) - Solid arugula salad. Nothing special about it but I needed some veggies and acidity for balance. Overall, kind of a disappointing experience.

    I'll occasionally order this for lunch and it's delicious and the sandwich is the perfect lunch…read moreside. The chicken is extremely moist and flavorful. They add goat cheese and arugula on the sandwich as well which adds extra flavor. There is also a dressing you can get, I like to ask for it on the side so I can dip it there. The potato's are excellent as well but would prefer to have them a little bit more crispy. It's fast service - not a sit down restaurant. Would recommend for a delicious lunch order that's fast and easy.

    It's not a gimmick if they have good food…read more Handsome Dan's has been on my list to try for months, but I've been on a keto diet most of the time, so a bunch of restaurants have been put on a "someday" list. Last week I was on a break from keto, and my husband read my mind. He took me here as the first stop on a rainy Friday night date. I know they have good sandwiches, but they also have their "bait shop" schtick. They're not near any significant fishing spots, and I didn't see any evidence of bait, but whatever. Their sandwiches are good, so they can get away with it. While I ate my sandwich on the patio, we discussed the novelty nature of many Austin businesses, and which ones can hold up and which ones are pure hype. I ordered the Club sandwich. It's not a true triple-decker club, but it was the sandwich that had the best variety of fillings in my opinion. Everything you'd expect in a classic club, but easier to eat because it wasn't stacked absurdly tall like other clubs. The sourdough bread was very crispy, and the meats, cheese, and vegetables worked well inside. On the side I got potato salad which I like more than their other option, which was chips, but the potato salad wasn't anything special. Their patio was the perfect spot to enjoy a rainstorm. They have some glider chairs off to the side that are good for lounging on, but when it really started to rain we moved in to the center of the patio. I'm glad I got a chance to try Handsome Dan's. I doubt I'll be back anytime soon because huge sandwiches like this need to be an occasional treat for me, but if you're in the Springdale area looking for a satisfying meal, this is it!

    Handsome Dans was on our list because of all the online and social media hype. It's tucked away in…read morethe back next to Stargazer in a brewery/ warehouse off Springdale and Airport area. The parking is shared and gets packed in the evening or you have to pay to park if you are unable to find anything in the lot or on the street. Handsome Dans has a sign directing you to the back where they are located. The vibe is true to a bait shop/diner it's casual with a rustic feel, they have a large covered patio adjacent to Stargazer bar. I highly suggest sitting outside if possible because the inside does get a bit claustrophobic and smokey when it's packed and they are smashing paninis on the press with no proper kitchen overhead vents. The type of greasy smoke you get when you are making super buttery sandwiches on a hot press. The sandwiches are ok but not something I would go out of my way to have ,our kids liked the hotdogs and Frito pies which were also kind of "upper class" gas station quality. Most of the stuff here is food that probably tastes way better after drinking several beers. It's like any normal sandwich you could make at home and toss in a panini press to be honest. Really good beers on tap and friendly staff who seemed to disappear to the back quite a bit and came back confused. They didn't know if they had already given me my food because I was ordering and paying for extra food after more people in our party arrived. They literally saw my food I already had on the table from my previous order and thought they gave me double of what I ordered hahaha. I can't make a judgment because I have no clue what they kept dispersing to the back for but can just say the confusion was real, LOL. All together if I had to come back it be because someone I knew wanted to try it. Otherwise for me it's a one and done. I got the pictures I stood next to a sign ,I had the Signiture sandwiches, now I'm moving on. I can say I've been there done that. I'm guessing that a college crowd or just being a single person who just wants to be amongst people that this is the type of lowkey place to go if you're not into the typical Longhorn hangouts. You stop in ,have some beers, eat a low budget ingredient expensive panini sandwich and chill till you have to call yourself a Waymo cause the beer is good and strong.
