Texas Coffee Traders seems to be THE community spot with a clear presence of regulars who come to stay, and those who are on the move. The staff clearly recognized quite a few customers during the short time I was there to do a quick grab and go of caffeine. The staff was super friendly and took their time in helping me pick out a bag of beans based off my personal preferences and intent of use (cortados/lattes vs drip/press). Their beans are well priced at around $14 a bag AND you get a complimentary drip coffee with the purchase! I felt like a winner! I also gave their canned lemonade and coffee drink a try - because why not? It had a unique and almost chocolatey flavor. Not sure if I loved it personally, but the quality of the ingredients and flavors were distinctly there. Certainly will take the time to come back to test out the space for a remote work day or a casual outing. Big plus: They have a parking lot and the option of indoor and outdoor seating. That's more like it! read more

Cozy inside and outside. Definitely a nice relaxing spot to chill Service was good. Coffee was not great though. read more

The coffee at Texas Coffee Traders was smooth, rich, and really enjoyable. I ordered a freshly brewed cup and loved the deep flavor without it being too bitter. We also picked up a pastry to go with the coffee, which made for a nice little breakfast break. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, making it easy to sit and enjoy the coffee for a while. A great spot for anyone who appreciates a good cup of coffee. read more

Nice a nice find on our travels across Texas. Lily was a sweetheart and helps us choose a coffee for our pour over. We landed on a Peru medium roast. We also decided to buy the beans to enjoy when we get home. This is such friendly and comfortable spot to enjoy a cup. We were impressed with the variety of coffee origins and roasts. The Peru coffee was available in light, medium and dark roast. Something for everyone! read more

Stopped in for a coffee and really liked the friendly vibe and variety of beans they offer. The internet happened to be out when I visited, so I didn't stay long, but it's definitely a place I've been meaning to return to. Prices are reasonable, parking is easy, and it feels like the kind of spot that rewards repeat visits. read more

My favorite spot to get whole bean coffee in town. They have an exceptionally wide variety of beans from all over the world, and they are constantly roasting so I can be sure that everything is fresh. The prices are fantastic for the quality, and the staff have always been super friendly and helpful. I could hang there and geek out on their knowledge of coffee sourcing and processing for hours haha. They likewise have a great tea selection and even some baked goods. Indoor space is limited, but you can definitely find a nice shaded spot outside to relax and work. I will continue recommending this as one of Austin's hidden gem coffee spots! read more

Terrific coffee! We drive to Austin a couple times a year to buy their beans. The new location is comfy and spacious. The outside seating is huge! If you're in the area go get a great cup of coffee and beans for your home brewing! read more

Delicious vanilla latte. Typical coffee shop feel and service as expected. Not rude but not friendly either. Loved the ambiance of this location. read more

I have tried all these blends and have to say all are excellent in their own special way. I have not found one that I enjoy more over the others. I typically order a 5lb bag through the website and have it mailed to my home. Service is always fast, efficient and timely. I'm a big fan and love all the flavors. I'm still exploring to find my favorite. As of now the Texas Blends have been repeat purchases. If you go to the the 4th street store expect great customer service. Staff is always happy to discuss their favorite beans and offer suggestions for you. read more

One of my favorite roasters in town! They have great bean options for a really affordable price. The crew there is top notch and the new location is super convenient read more

I am so sad Tx coffee traders moved locations! I used to go by there on my walks with my dog and they were so friendly and kind. I prefer their coffee over any local coffee shop here. They are consistent, tasty and quick. Although I am sad to not be able to walk to them- I can't wait to try out their new spot! read more

They are in a new location which kind of threw us off. It's not a bad thing but since we are from nearby Katy TX and only get there a couple of times a year we thought we'd were in the wrong place at first. We should not have worried. The new setup was amazing. The staff was really nice and the coffee was as always really good. 4 pounds of coffee and a couple of drinks and we were on our way. read more

I LOVE Texas Coffee Traders. It is the definition of a hidden gem. I'm a latte girl, and I love that Coffee Traders is always switching up its specials. I swear I find something new to try every time I go. My old faithful is definitely a blackberry vanilla oat milk latte. Ordering it is a mouthful but I promise it's worth it. I also appreciate the fact that they've kept pricing low in comparison to most other Austin coffee shops. Parking: There's a small lot right next to it and a fair amount of street parking. I've never had issues parking. read more

Several patrons are holding calls and the manager refused to turn down the very loud annoying music

Great local coffee shop on 4th Street just a little east of Interstate 35. Friendly staff and wonderful coffee - nothing burnt here. A few tables to sit outside. Do yourself a favor and check them out for a fantastic espresso or latte, and then take a bag of beans home with you - you will be glad that you did, and so will your taste buds. A related company, Coffee Techs, repairs espresso machines - the pump went out on mine + a few other minor issues. I dropped my machine off and because of the backlog should hear back in 4-6 weeks - stay tuned. read more

Why 5 stars? Because the cold brew was great and the beans I bought were........ --- --- --- I knew I wanted to stop here before leaving Austin and I did just that: it was practically the last thing I did before heading home. I did two things on my visit: bought a cold brew for the drive and bought some Brazil Dark beans for my espresso machine at home. The cold brew was very smooth and definitely something I'd order often if I lived in the area. The beans were good, not great. But the selection is enormous here and I'm sure I'd find some that I loved if I made my way through the menu. read more

I love this place so much!! I've been wanting to come here for YEARS, but timing never worked out and when I could they were closed. I finally was able to and boy am I glad I did. They have their own small lot for parking. We came in for coffee drinks, but left with 4 amazing bags of coffee beans/grounds! The store also smells heavenly. We weren't sure what bags to get, so we got some from the recommendation of the employees and it was such a treat. I can't wait to come back next time I'm in Austin. Coffee lovers unite! read more

I get a free coffee at another place nearby but still frequent Texas Coffee Traders for three reasons; 1. My very strong dog pulls me there on our walks because he gets the best treats from them (and they know him by name, not sure they even know mine!) and they love him 2. Toffee nut cold brew. I'm sure it's just a syrup, but a flavor I haven't come across anywhere else and I don't need to add any other sugar to it, just 2 Mississippis of half and half. 3. The walk up window is still there and makes it supremely easy to grab a coffee with a dog in tow. Bonus reason: Their prices. Dirt cheap compared to everywhere else. #ThankyouThursday read more

Awesome little coffee shop. Found some very nice exotic coffee beans from various parts of the world. They have a huge section of coffee's to chose from and try out before buying them. The guy helping us was great. He was knowledgeable and giving us various tips on looking for coffee and how they differ from region to region. Ended up getting a mocha latte to sip outside before heading out. Couldn't beat the pricing of $2-3 depending on what you're getting. They also got shirts, coffee makers and various tumblers if you wanted to purchase them. read more

Texas Coffee Traders - Mocha latte - Coffee Roasteries Near Me - Austin, Texas

This coffee makers' coffee joint. Highest reviewed coffee joint in Austin. The place was crawling with folks both simply curious or thinking about starting a joint themselves. The main space is sandwiched between a bean roasting storage area and a loading area. The main space is stuffed with all kinds of coffee related paraphernalia. The line between public and office space was very blurry. The staff did not seem to mind I had stumbled into their office. Ordered my usual - Americano. It was very strong; more bitter than I like but very smooth. Coffee aside, definitely worth a visit if you like to learn more about starting a coffee business. P.S., a staff saw that I was photographing the joint, started asking if I need consulting services to build my coffee shop; she went to describe many of other areas of their expertise. Super friendly. read more

This is such a cool spot for coffee lovers. The staff was knowledgeable about the various coffee beans that they sell and answered all of our questions. They had great recommendations and I will definitely be coming back in the future. read more

Check out this place! You can sample various coffees they have prepared for the day, usually a light, medium, or dark roast. We even got a chance to get a tour of the place by one of the managers who showed us how the coffees were roasted. My favorite is the lone star for cold brew. Coffee prices are very reasonable and they have interesting specialty drinks too. Although they did increase prices recently. read more

I didn't know that this was a must-visit spot until I randomly came across it! My boyfriend is a big coffee drinker and wanted to grab some coffee on our walk home from lunch. He found this on yelp and we headed over. It's in a very quiet area a few blocks over from the main street. The inside is no-frills. They sell coffee beans and coffee equipment and there's an area where the baristas are. My boyfriend ordered the vanilla iced coffee and it came out really quick. He loved the coffee! We would've purchased coffee beans if we had space in our carry-ons. They gave me a free latte since they were practicing latte art with a few cups. I thought this was really sweet of them! I added a little bit of vanilla syrup and it was amazing! I'm not a coffee drinker, but I know when I'm drinking a good cup. The cherry on top was the employees. They were all so sweet and funny. They all seemed like they enjoyed each other's presence and made us feel really comfortable! Overall, I loved coming here and would definitely recommend it to anyone who is looking for a quaint place to grab a quick cup of coffee. FYI, they are not open on Sundays. S/o to the eco friendly plastic :) read more

All they were missing was a public bathroom! read more

Straight up serious coffee drinkers here! My cousin came here a few months back and snapped a video for us because he knew we'd love this place if we ever get a chance to visit. And so we did and visited, not once but twice. We took our time looking at the large collection of beans they had on the shelf. The husband commented that the labeling looks exactly like the Montana Coffee Traders. We were told by one the of the friendly staff that the owners from Montana are the same owners of Texas Coffee Traders. Brilliant! We were able to taste test some of the coffee they have in the airpot dispensers. $2 for any cup size, self-serve. And there's a cold brew you can also self-serve. Specialty drinks, order at the counter. I loved the cold brew. It tasted like how the husband would make his home batches. There's outside seating. No public restrooms. Friendly service. read more

We were on our way out of Austin and needed a refueling of caffeine. It's tucked into the neighborhood and offers parking. Upon entering, we were greeted by a couple employees. Everything can be tested to make sure you find the perfect coffee. There were five different carafes full of coffees that all tasted great - it was all good, quality coffee. Their flavor profiles were on point. They had a few where they brewed the same beans different ways to show how it changed the flavor, it was cool to taste. They specialize in coffee but also have tea. The selection of loose leaf tea was just okay. A lot of blends focusing on fruity mashups. They all smell great but I don't know how good they would be brewed. I got the midnight plum black tea. It has a subtle flavor brought out by a dab of honey. Parking: small lot What we got: Indonesian/Ethiopian blend French press coffee ***** // Midnight Plum black ice tea: *** Price: $ Wait: immediate read more

Amazing time! Staff is knowledgeable and the coffee is delicious and a huge selection of freshly roasted beans

What a fun place to visit in Austin! Especially if you are a coffee junkie like me. There are some for you to sample, coffee brewing gear, the repair coffee machines, and the staff is just happy and helpful. Would suggest to come here early if possible. The space isn't big and it can get a bit claustrophobic when it gets busy. read more

I am very picky about my French Roast. It should be strong and full-bodied. And after a lot of searching I found the perfect coffee in the Fredo Blend of the TX Coffee Traders, which I have been drinking exclusively now for years. My local Fresh Plus carried it, but sometimes ran out, so now I get it directly from the store. Their shipping is fairly reliable, but the window service is very quick, so that's what I've been using under Covid. Friendly people, great merchandise. Check it out. read more

I first discovered Texas Coffee Traders at the Hope Farmers Market and my husband would always get a coffee and beans. I would taste and get whatever non-coffee drink they had and it was delicious. Then about a year ago we found out at the Farmers Market that they have a brick and mortar location just around the corner. Wow! We eventually made our way and boy oh boy talk about choices! They have so many nice specialty beans - literally a whole wall full. My husband was in his coffee heaven. One of his go to favorites is the Starling. If you have or you are looking for an espresso machine or any kind of coffee making device they pretty much have you covered here too. They even do repairs on machines I was told. The staff here is super knowledgeable about all things coffee as you might expect. They have a cute little patio and serve up some baked goods that you can enjoy with your drink. Texas Coffee Trader truly is one of kind and you can catch them every Sunday at Hope Farmers Market or you can go to their brick and mortar location with their extended hours if that is more convenient. read more
