    To be honest, I don't know how this place doesn't have a thousand reviews! This is easily one of the most unique cafe/beer gardens I have ever been to! It's pretty surreal. The atmosphere really sets it apart. They have so much seating, a koi pond, and beautiful greenery and art woven throughout the space. It's also perfect for any vibe really! You can show up in the afternoon wanting coffee and breakfast tacos, or lean into a happy hour vibes with drinks and pork tacos. This is a great spot to get work done during the day, do some creative writing, and it's also a great place to bring a friend and catch up. I wish every city had a place like this!

    Great spot for drinks and dog friendly!! I love the mangonada margarita and my husband love the cosmic echoes beer The tacos were good but unfortunately the meat and tortilla was cold when we got the food Salsa / chips and queso guac combo was really good and great price Service is self order for the tacos - super simple but order at bar for drinks Plenty of outdoor seating - not too much of an indoor space Parking lot available and street parking too

    Great place to chill and have drinks! They offer a variety on alcoholic and non alcoholic drinks. A variety of coffee drinks were available, and adjacent is a spot to order tacos, nachos etc We came to chill. They have a spacious outdoor space, a natural water/green feature, and an outdoor upstairs seating area for views. Fun music playing overhead. We sat for a bit to chat before we headed for dinner.

    It's one of those trendy spots where every other person comes in with a laptop. Sometimes, they have DJs and whatnot. Drinks are okay, a bit more on an overpriced end when it comes to quality to price ratio. It's downtown adjacent area though, so no surprise here

    Cosmic Saltillo is such a vibe. They had a live DJ when I went on a Saturday, which added great energy. I was greeted by the staff who were super nice. The drink menu has a nice mix of coffee and alcoholic options. I tried the Banana Cloud Cold Brew. I'm usually not a fan of banana flavors, but this one was smooth and not artificial at all. Plenty of seating and space to hang out, work, or study. My friend and I had such a great time, we ended up getting tacos there as well. Before we knew it, we had spent 4 hours there!! Definitely a spot I'd come back to.

    This is definitely a spot to check out if you're in the area. The outdoor space is beautiful and perfect for letting kids or dogs explore supervised. I love spending time here and decompressing. As for the coffee itself, I wouldn't necessarily say it's the reason I come. The drinks are okay--more on the sweet, syrupy, and creative side if that's your thing. They do make a lot of cocktails and specialty alcoholic beverages, so I can see how that's a big plus for coming in the evening. I tend to strictly come in the morning and opt for a cortado and a taco from the taco shop onsite. The taco spot is pretty awesome--they make their tortillas in house and the staff is super friendly. Heads up, for those looking for authentic aguas frescas--you won't get them here as they use a syrup base form the bar for the drinks. They do offer elote in a cup and some other treats at times. 4/5 for ambience and tacos.

    When you've got that friend or family member coming in for the weekend, Cosmic Saltillo is the best choice for the following: 1. Outdoor breakfast tacos with the family (strollers & pets accepted) 2. Guys brunch at a picnic table 3. A rehash of last night with your best friend at the bar 4. The first stop for suburbanites who've come in town for the day The food menu is limited but the cocktail list has got something for everyone. It's beautiful and eclectic so great for photos. There's a parking garage around the corner and there's limited paid street parking.

    This place was such a vibe! It's a tucked away gem among this street. Plenty of random parking near by, but as usual in Austin it was an adventure to find a spot. This is a bar slash cafe with food offerings. I didn't eat anything but my coffee was very good! They have lots of add on options as well. It honestly felt like I was in Vegas at the bar, and a patio garden ish area outside. I will be back!

    nitro espresso and passionfruit margarita

    There are so many spaces to try in Austin, but the one I have been dying to check out is Cosmic Saltillo off East 4th Street. Last weekend, with a group of friends, we all ventured to Cosmic Saltillo to check it out. Immediately, the space is extremely welcoming. The outdoor area feels like a peaceful garden with a small fountain, a stream, and wooden picnic tables and benches. Inside is the bar where the menu is filled with custom cocktails on tap and plenty of other options as well. We settled in on the upstairs balcony with a perfect view of Downtown Austin and the CapMetro Rail. There are quite a few tables up there and we were lucky to get one right as it opened up. As for the drinks, I started with their Nitro Espresso Cocktail which is a way of saying it is kinda basically sorta maybe an Espresso Martini. It was great. Next I drank a Coors Banquet to offset it, but their draft and bottled beer selection as a whole is great with some specific Cosmic collabs with local breweries. After that, I had their Frozen Boozy Coffee which is served in a special paper cup that looks eerily similar to the Wendy's logo. Once you try it, it is not a frozen hot chocolate. It is a boozy frosty and it is amazing. Lastly, I had a beergarita which is a margarita built on Vacancy Brewing's Super Agave lager and it was also fantastic. The nighttime atmosphere at Cosmic Saltillo is great especially if you are with great company like I was, but I can only imagine a Saturday afternoon being even better since the space is so welcoming and cozy. They have a full espresso and coffee bar and a taco joint but I tried neither. I will be coming back to Saltillo with a group because it is a great spot in a good area of Austin. The balcony feels like a cheat code with how it overlooks Cosmic itself and the Austin skyline. RIYL: Wendy's Chocolate Frosties if they were made with mezcal and tequila.

    The seating area here was BEAUTIFUL!! We went mid-day on Sunday and the vibes were high -- DJ was playing some jams, drinks were top tier with a lot of variation and very very reasonably priced. I will definitely visit this place again next time I am in Austin

    Marianne L.

    What a nice addition to the East side. The staff is super friendly and provided quick service on a busy Sunday. Our cold brew was icy and strong. The outdoor patio is colorful with plenty of seating, but be careful to check the seat when you sit! There are several birds in the area. My only critique is the music piped in was very loud for an outdoor patio and I had to lean in to hear my friend.

    Dylan T.

    TL;DR: Would 100% come back here for drinks with friends! Would not order food here again though. Drinks: The cocktails here are affordable and delicious! I ordered the Tequila Mangonada and would definitely order it again. They are generous with the tajin, and the mango flavor is definitely there. Food: Right next to the main establishment/seating area, there is a connected restaurant where you can get tacos. They were pricy at $5 each and unfortunately not as filling as I would have liked. Flavor is good, but I think my overall experience with the food felt mediocre. Ambiance: The outdoor seating area is really the selling point of the whole place. I loved how much shade and greenery there was on the first level: there was even a little fountain! My friend and I ended up going up to the second floor to drink since the first floor was already pretty filled and had music playing, and it is a nice experience up there too. There is plenty of seating, and you can get a nice view of the skyline too.

    Cosmic is truly one of the coolest places I've ever been to. The PERFECT place to enjoy the sun on a good weather day. There are PLENTY of tables and seating, upstairs and downstairs. Great for big groups and small. I got two tacos while I was there. The brisket & egg + the al pastor. They were both beautiful in presentation and good in size. In terms of taste though, neither blew me away. Nevertheless, I would definitely come back. You don't come for the food, you come for the vibe, and the vibes are IMMACULATE.

    Three people, three drinks, and one muffin that honestly stole the show…read more Flapjack (1/2 Sugar) - almost like a pancake breakfast in drink form. We chose half sweetness so it didn't feel drenched in maple syrup, which made it way more enjoyable for me. The cinnamon notes and subtle spice undertone came through nicely. Not exactly my go-to since I gravitate toward floral or fruit-forward drinks, but definitely fun to try at least once. Honey Lavender - LOVED this one. Everyone agreed it was very lavender, which only made me love it more. I chose whole milk and was surprised by how smooth and creamy it tasted. My only tiny complaint is that I didn't get much coffee flavor coming through, but if you're here for the lavender, this absolutely delivers. Coconut Macadamia Latte - this hit the spot. Perfectly coconut-y with just enough macadamia peeking through. I'll admit I have a sharp tongue for coconut flavors (hello, Thai curry), so this one immediately stood out to me. The sweetness level felt just right, and honestly, I'd pick this over Starbucks any day. Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffin - one of the best things I ate in Austin. The texture deserves praise because it somehow managed to be firm without being dry, which I usually think goes hand in hand. Not here. It was moist, flavorful, and absolutely delicious while somehow also not being overly sweet. The cream cheese and pumpkin flavors came through beautifully without feeling sugary or heavy. If you stop by, this is a must-order. But honestly, the best part of this whole place? The service, the people, the atmosphere (especially the atmosphere!), and the flavors. There's something about the space that just makes you want to stay awhile. Also... did you know you can touch the bear's butt?!? Highly recommend. It weirdly felt like a mandatory part of the experience.

    $3 PBRs, open 24/7, what else can I ask for?…read more Time to Order: We got here around 9:45AM. Walked over but they seem to have plenty of parking. Tons of outdoor and patio seating, a few tables indoors in the AC. I ordered the Flapjack, hot, with double espresso in a larger cup, with half sweetness (effectively a large with less services). Delicious saltiness and cinnamon! I really enjoyed this. I tried the honey lavender latte which they said was the least sweet of their fort favorites. The lavender flavor was very forward and there was a hint of sweetness on the back of the tongue, so very accurate. I didn't get as much coffee flavor here so maybe double espresso if that's important to you. Friends also tried the seasonal coconut macadamia latte (they said it was nice, like a sweet nutty flavor). Really solid coffee spot with great vibes, I'd come back.

I live quite north so Noble Joes was a bit of a drive for me and honestly it's good coffee but a bit overhyped in my opinion.

Personally I liked the sugar cookie latte the best! I would probably rate the coffee overall as a 7.5/10- definitely worth trying at least once! Service- 10/10 the baristas were very pleasant! Coffee-7.5/10 Parking- 7/10 (no parking lot but easy to find street parking on a rainy/slow weekday) Price- $15.16 ~ 2 coffees + tip, pretty standard for Austin
