Nitro Cold Brew + succulent
Patrick R.

Vise Coffee looked so cozy I drove 6 hours for it. Here's why: My brother and I are in the last steps of forming a business and needed a remote city far from Austin to lock in for a final push "workcation." We whittled down our choices to Nacogdoches, College Station, San Angelo, or Alpine. Upon further research we didn't care to explore the vibrant local narcotics scene in Nacogdoches or San Angelo, and weren't smitten at College Station since their only two attractions are the "George H. W. Bush Presidential Library" and a football team that hasn't passed over 500 yards in a season since 2011. But the deal breaker was Vise Coffee's beautiful facade popping up in a Google search of Alpine. We were stoked to do some work inside this adobe, desert looking building, so we booked the Airbnb and drove over. We were greeted by a if-Jason-Mamoa-was-born-in-west-texas looking barista, who offered great service and great coffee. I imagine out-of-towners don't shack up here too often though, because we got approached multiple times by younger locals who appeared starved of sub-30 year old company. If you're in town stop by. Sweet spot with great service. Alpine is more than a stop on the way to Big Bend!

My brother and I came to Alpine as park of a "workcation" to get some much needed work done in the serenity of West Texas. Vise Coffee seemed like an obvious watering hole for some work, so we spent a large portion of our Friday morning here. The service and coffee were both great, as was the environment. You can tell the owner(s) put effort into giving the interior both an aesthetic but authentic flair, which I think they executed pretty well. Overall great place to go if you're looking for a good coffee and hangout in Alpine.

We drove into town in the early afternoon and saw the coffee shop and noted how nice and inviting it looked, but didn't need coffee so late in the day. We were happy to see that it was open on our way out, especially since it's Memorial Day. Turns out that they just opened on Friday! My husband had the Single Origin Drip black and I had the iced vanilla latte with oat milk. He said the coffee was "really good" and I loved my latte. I would definitely stop in if we're in Alpine again and I recommend that you do too! The owners were really sweet. I had a really nice conversation with them and other locals.

A very nice place to hang out for a while, right across the street from the train station. Good coffee and very nice employees. Also had good conversation with other patrons.

Great little coffee shop in Alpine. Great coffee and baked goods, local art, on a main walking street (Holland). Highly recommend.

I've eaten here twice and everytime I've left feeling like I just had the best hot dog experience…read moreof my life. The menu changes and you never know what kind of experimental hot dog you'll find. My first time through I had a Muffelletta hot dog that was absolutely to die for. If you're in Alpine this is for sure the coolest place to grab a bite!

I used to live in Alpine a few years back and made it a point to visit as many places as I could…read morewhile living there. I don't remember Cow Dog being here before so after driving by a few times and deciding I could do better than McDonald's as I was leaving town, I dropped in to see what they had to offer. The cashier was friendly and when her credit machine wouldn't work after a bit and all I had was $8 cash, she was gracious and gave me what I wanted at a dollar discount. Extremely reasonable prices for the caliber of breakfast burrito I received. I got the bounty burrito and it was definitely worth the wait! Packed full of roasted potatoes, freshly sautéed bell peppers, chunks of breakfast meat and flavorful egg I was bummed I was leaving and wouldn't be able to enjoy another one on a different day. There's ample inside seating and even more patio seating. There's free street parking, but take into account it's on a one way so plan accordingly. I think people might pass it often because there was a sign on the other one way back to remind you where to turn. I hope this place lasts a long time like all my other favorites up there. Support local businesses when you travel through because you never know what simple delights you'll enjoy unless you try.
