    I decided to try this place out because I saw that they were able to put a picture on your coffee…read more The shop is located at the Pearl, kind of catty corner to best quality daughter. It is small with a few a handful of tables inside. Most people there were grabbing their coffee to go. They have their normal menu with coffee and Matcha, but they also have specials of the month posted. You could upload whatever picture you want on your coffee or choose from one of their designs. The staff were all super nice and they even redid fix my friends coffee in order to get a better result with picture. Prices are reasonable and about the going rate at every coffee shop. I had the coucou latte. I thought my coffee had a perfect coconut taste to it and it was not too sweet. They can make any of their drinks iced or hot. Of course parking is going to be either street or paid.

One thing I wish they had done was give us directions after ordering so we knew to look for a photo to upload while we waited. The matcha drinks were much needed since it was hot outside. Iced Vanilla Brown Sugar Matcha (Large 20 oz $7.25) + Oat Milk ($0.50): Not too sweet and you can actually taste the matcha. My husband preferred this one since it was less creamy and more balanced. Iced Mango Matcha (Large 20 oz $7.25) + Oat Milk ($0.50): Very strong mango flavor and the mango cold foam is quite creamy. A very flavorful drink which I liked but the mango overpowered the matcha a bit.

They were nice enough to warm the cookie for me, and it had that "fresh out of the oven" smell and gooeyness. They asked me if I wanted my drinks for here or to-go and I said for here and they still served me in to-go cups, which I thought was weird. The cortado was not my favorite. It was bitter and acidic and the foam was looking a little yeasty. The mocha latte also had very little flavor to it, tasting like hot milk. I had difficulty finishing both drinks. Later I noticed they were using What's Brewing beans, and it made sense. I know many folks love WB? coffee beans, as it's a bit of a local darling, but more often than not I don't enjoy cortados made with their beans. Dirty dishes and cutlery sat on a couple of tables long after folks had left. I don't want to make assumptions, because there WAS a designated staff member for cleaning/wiping things down, but maybe those two evaded her. There's a sign on the wall that says, "I'm not for everyone," and boy are they right. They also stopped playing one of my favorite Radiohead songs (right in the middle of it!) to play Teenage Dream by Katy Perry. Now while I'm not deducting stars for THAT (because that's just downright petty), I can't help but feel unimpressed by my most recent visit. At least the cookie was delicious. Perhaps a third visit is in order. As they say, third time's a charm, right?

    BLUF: Solid coffee offerings, get coffee here if you're at The Pearl, but wouldn't come to The…read morePearl to get coffee here. Local business. I've always had a great experience at Local Coffee Founders at The Pearl. Their cold brew is a reliable thirst quenching caffeinated option if you're in the area, and they offer all of the coffee shop staples you'd expect. During peak hours, this isn't the coffee shop I'd come to for relaxation or to get some work done on my laptop, the interior is small, seating is limited, and the ambient noise is louder than you'll find in other places. They're dog friendly, but I would recommend going with someone that can wait outside while you order or vice versa. Service has always been fairly good, but you'll definitely want to listen closely for them to announce your order is ready. There's ample seating outside in the adjacent courtyard and The Pearl District in general. I like to get coffee here when I'm already in the area, especially during the weekend markets, but this isn't the place I'd come to get coffee otherwise. As with most businesses at The Pearl you're going to be paying a comparative premium to the cost of similar goods elsewhere. Things worth knowing ahead of time: Ample parking at The Pearl, cost varies based on the time and day of the week though. I believe it's still free weekdays before 3pm, and always free for the first 30 minutes. Expect to walk a bit regardless of where you park, as there is no parking directly adjacent to the cafe.

    I've had a few not so great (& expensive) experiences at coffee houses lately so I entered this…read morecafé with hesitation. I ordered an iced cold brew for myself and my husband got a 20 ounce hot Americano. The barista asked if he would like fruity or chocolate notes in the Americano he selected fruity. (I would've selected chocolate personally) While the cold brew was tasty, that Americano knocked it out of the park for me. It was over the top unique and distinct. Sadly my husband did not enjoy it, but I absolutely loved it. We talked to the barista, Mia about the coffee beans and the flavors. Mia offered to make him a different Americano, but he declined. She geeked out on coffee beans with me & explained how the beans were fermented with strawberries (!!!!) I can totally understand why people would not like this process, but I found it to be remarkable. I really wanted to order the chocolate version just to try it out but after spending $14 on two drinks, I decided against it. Overall, a great experience with wonderful service especially from Mia. Will definitely be back next time I'm in San Antonio.

I haven't been to a CIA restaurant since I went to the one in Napa many years ago. We arrived around noon and were seated immediately as not many people were dining there except for a party of about 8 people in one table and 2 people in a bar top table in the other room by the pastries. A couple of people came in to buy pastries to go. Kiana was our student server and explained the concept. They're only open from February til April for that particular semester and in August for another semester with students operating both front and back of house in the kitchen. The proceeds from the restaurant sales goes towards the Students' Graduating Fund to help with the costs of schooling. The students can experience serving customers and cooking. The chef has a Basque background so his menu is French-Spanish inspired according to Kiana. My friend and I thought this was a great cause! We perused the menu but I zeroed into the Queen Vol Au Vent because it reminded me of the Chicken A La King in Pastry Shells dish I used to make when we used to have big family Christmas parties. I wanted to see their version. I asked Kiana what the pastry shells were filled with since the menu says it's filled with the "Chef's choice Velouté" and she said chicken and mushrooms in a cream sauce. Perfect! My friend got the Egg Croissant & Petit Salade with a side of Bacon & Home Fries. While they were preparing our dishes, I walked up to the pastry case to see what they had to offer. They had cookies, Raisin Bread rolls, Conchas, Manchego & Sausage Scone, Alfajor Dulce de Leche, a Passion Chocolate dessert, fruit tarts, Napoleon, Baguettes and some bagged items: Palmiers, Chocolate coated Nuts and Toffee. I asked one of the chefs how much the bag of Toffee cost and she said $3.80 so I said I'll buy a bag. My friend was curious to see what they had so she also picked up a bag of Toffee. My friend also ordered a cup of brewed coffee. Our dishes came and I noticed how huge my friend's Egg Croissant looked! It was nicely laminated and the egg filling looked nice and creamy. The bacon was thickly sliced and my friend said there was a slight sweetness, perhaps maple? She gave me a piece and it was pretty tasty, meaty and wasn't greasy, nor salty. My Queen Vol Au Vent wasn't quite as big as I thought it would be but the chicken filling was ample. The Petit Salade on the side were just dry greens and wasn't a very big portion either. It could've used more dressing as it was lacking moisture. Perhaps some sliced Heirloom Cherry tomatoes would've been nice to accompany the dry pastry shell Vol Au Vent dish and add a pop of color too. When we were paying our bill, Kiana said the bagged Toffees were on the House since they just opened so we were pleasantly surprised and thankful! Another server asked my friend if she'd like more coffee or if she'd like it in a to-go cup so she took that option. I noticed the students were clearing out the pastries and bread so I asked Kiana what they did with the excess, unsold pastries? She said they take inventory, donate or throw them away except for the bread which is frozen and sold the next day. We told her we hoped it was given away since they're perfectly fine and for a good cause. There was an instructor's birthday today so the students and staff sang "Happy Birthday" by the kitchen. That was nice. We paid our bills and before leaving I used the co-ed restroom which was very clean and spacious. We sat outside so they could buss our tables and we continued talking outside. Can't wait to come back again before the semester ends!
