    Cute coffee place right in the heart of the Square! Very nice relaxing vibe inside. Staff were friendly & gave recommendations. A good place to come to for studying, relaxing & catching up with people!

    This place is super cute and cozy really nice if you need a place to study. Service is good, order is taken and you wait for it but it comes out pretty quickly which is a good thing. My friend and I got the Mayan Mocha and The blonde, for the Mayan mocha it was really good (9/10) I preferred it of the blonde simply because it has a stronger taste and the blonde is more subtle but still pretty good. Would definetly come again to try more.

    Great lil coffee shop conveniently located on The Square, on a corner no less. Visited early morning on Indigenous Peoples Day and there was absolutely noone here, all the slacker, stoner, South Waste Texas State students probably just rolling into their beds from partying. A couple of non-partying student nerds walked in but they got the drinks and split. Better for us as we had this cool spot to ourselves and sat in the bas ass comfy chairs overlooking the square. Loved my almond milk latte and it couldn't be any better. I loved this place so much, I picked up a couple of gift cards for my nieces that study at Sexy State. New spot to add to the rotation when we're in San Marvelous.

    I got the mayan mocha and I added paprika ($6)! This is a really nice spot for studying or catching up with people. The have a variety of tables with booth like seating, tables, and couches. I love the natural sunlight from the big windows! The employees were nice and my drink came out promptly. I liked the mayan mocha! It had a nice kick to it from the paprika. This shop is located in a cute downtown area with lots of stores within walking distance.

    Adorable environment walking in! It has this cozy, dark ambience to it, making it an ideal place to get some work done or catch up with friends. Makes me wanna sit next to a fireplace with my sweater. Coffee is delicious! Well balanced and not overly sweet or overly bitter. Decent portions as well. Extremely friendly workers. I'm always greeted with a smile and you can tell the people love working there. The only downside I'd say is the limited seating. Seats fill up pretty quick, so it can be challenging grabbing a spot. Nonetheless, I still love this place and definitely will be returning!

    Pretty damn good coffee! I ordered the the emporium, I'd order it again and again! The coffee shop is cute and great setting for any informal occasion!

    Very convenient spot for coffee. Great seating inside and out. Friendly workers . Coffee was yummy! Asked a customer for what she recommended and she suggested " don't be chai" and the iced vanilla latte so that's what we got ! Seems like a great place to get some computer work done Or for a coffee date or for just a quick pick up!

    Perfect ending to a perfect day trip to San Marcus. The Coffee Bar was our final stop, and it was absolutely worth it. We stopped at The Coffee Bar for a usual coffee and cake moment. This nice coffee spot is conveniently located in the downtown area, so it was ideal for a short walk after exploring. It wasn't crowded during our visit and quiet enough for a nice conversation. We ordered some of their flavored coffee and shared a chocolate chip cookie. The coffee was well flavored, smooth, and delicious. The cookie was very tasty. The place was well lit and nicely decorated. Like many places these days, it had many photo worthy opportunities, but what I really loved was that it was not crowded and had plenty of seating. I would have liked more in the form of cakes and sweets, but otherwise, this place was a good addition to our little day trip.

    I found this spot walking back from lunch with my coworkers. I was honestly lost in what to order, but a charcoal latte on the specials caught my eye. Charcoal. Latte. Yes it tasted a bit---grainy in my mouth, but it was a subtly that mixed well with the non sweet cocoa. It was almost like a nutty flavor blending with the coffee. For someone not a fan over overly sweet, this hit just right as I sipped away at work. The location itself was adorable, perfect to study or for a date. The staff was friendly and patient as I wandered around, lost at what to order.

    So the location is right on the square of San Marcos which can be good and bad, but the building and decor is super awesome, it's dark and bright at the same time! It's very cozy and comfortable and the barista was very friendly! The WiFi is slow slow but the drink made up for my trip here for sure :) I came here to work and enjoy a cup between jobs and the atmosphere and the barista both were very friendly, I truly enjoyed the art, the decor, the setting and then got one of my favorite coffees to date here! The price was good as well, but I was not a fan of the cup... (it's the little things in life) but. Taste on point! They do have a sign saying to bring your own mug for a discount so if I lived here I would definitely do that! They do also have a take a book/leave a book library which is one of my favorite ideas in these small local coffee shops! My only real downfall was how slow the WiFi was, which made working here very difficult! Definitely a cool spot to have a cup of coffee with a friend, business partner, or to read a book! Btw the music may be a little loud for the quiet readers .

    I need this!
