    Brunch spread - Shrimp & grits, maple peach pecan waffle, laksa, biscuits and gravy
    Sheryl A.

    At first glance on Yelp, it comes across as mostly as an ice cream parlor cafe but it's so much more! My friends invited me for brunch and it was my first time visiting here. It's a 100% Gluten-free menu so it was worry free to order for my friends who are intolerant. We tried 4 main menu items family style. They also clearly label if it's dairy free, vegan, vegetarian for everyone's dietary sensitivities/preference. There's seating in the main entrance, outdoor side patio and in a tucked away room down the restroom hallway, with more indoor seating. Great service and reasonable prices. Wish I had more for ice cream and pastries so that just gives me another reason to come back! Brunch spread items: Shrimp & grits: creamy and savory Maple peach pecan waffle: summer special the peaches were a perfect in season for summer Laksa: savory curry base with fish cake and shrimp - a Singaporean special Biscuits and mushroom gravy - my friends couldn't believe the fluffy biscuits were GF. Matcha latte - the coconut milk flavor really comes through Golden chai latte - love a turmeric latte. savory spice with a side of anti-inflammatory benefits

    Chive pancakes, Memela (vegan), and ice cream The chive pancakes were crunchy. They tasted like burnt thick chips of seaweed almost. With the sauces of the memela they were great. The memela tasted. primary of beans. The sauces are what truly made it. Wouldn't order this again or call it delicious but it was savory. Ice cream was amazing! Never misses. The staff was super kind and friendly. Definitely great vibe in their outdoor patio.

    Neo MADE the experience. Gati's ice cream and pastries are always top tier, literally best in Austin, but their customer service sometimes leaves you wanting. But not Neo. His energy and helpful attitude was phenomenal. We were very impressed with his knowledge of all the items available to purchase and his recommendations. My friend and I went in there with our kids (10 kids!) and he handled the chaos seamlessly. The way he represented Gati is definitely manager status. - The owner needs to hold onto him.

    Favorite ice cream spot in Austin! Love that it's coconut milk based. Great for those avoiding dairy. The ice cream is always so smooth in texture and I love that they have lots of unique flavors. My favorite is are Cookie Monster, Thai tea, horchata black sesame rice

    Gati is an absolute dream, especially if you're gluten-free or just love incredible food. Their gluten-free pastries are next level. You would never guess they're gluten-free everything is soft, flavorful, and perfectly textured. The cinnamon rolls in particular are unforgettable, warm, gooey, and just the right amount of sweet. Truly some of the best I've ever had. And the Thai dishes? An explosion of flavor. Every bite is vibrant, rich, and beautifully balanced. You can tell everything is made fresh with high-quality ingredients and a lot of care. To top it all off, the staff is so friendly and kind. The whole space feels welcoming and full of good energy, which makes the experience even better.

    I don't often go here, but I love their ice cream and they have the best dairy-free options in town! I love their flavors and how everything g isn't too sweet. The price point is a little higher than usual but I can justify it by good quality ice cream and unique flavors. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, always offer to try different flavors too! There are a few spots to sit at, but in my experience it's never too busy (maybe because I always go in the evening when I do).

    As the old adage goes, "Life's short...eat dessert first." Well, that is exactly what we did. My hubby and I have been doing the Daniel fast for a week. So we decided to have an ice cream treat made with coconut milk. Gati...for the save! Gati specializes in coconut milk-based ice cream with robust, globally inspired flavors. There is no dairy...fully a plant-based delight. All their ice creams are coconut milk-based. After a few samples, we decided on Mango Lime and Golden Milk. Both were delicious! We were milk-based ice cream neophytes. You might ask what is the difference between cow's milk and coconut milk ice cream. There was not a significant difference to me. The only notable difference is that coconut milk-based ice cream does not have an oily feel to its ice cream. It was nice treat. In fact, we will likely return even after our Daniel's fast. Gati is a small establishment with a small outdoor patio. Overall laid-back environment....

    Assortment of pastries

    Woah, I had a dining experience at Launderette and the waitress said to check this place out after. I walked half a mile over to this cute spot with a friend and we ended up spending over $80 and I ain't even mad about it. First of all, even if you're not an ice cream fan (like me), TRY THE ICE CREAMS. I sampled a few and every single one was to live for. I ended up getting the oatmeal cream pie with chocolate chips on top. I was amazed at how many pints they had available to-go. It took everything out of my to not take any home. The cookie monster was incredible and all thai ice creams were delicious. They also have ice cream sandwiches to-go or to eat in store. The highlight, weirdly, was the Aztec Mocha. Perfectly poured, I had it hot and it blew me away. It had the most delicious notes of cinnamon and other spices. The design was perfect, I wish I didn't devour it and took a photo! My friend took over 12 pastries home and they all looked delicious. I asked her how they were and she said they didn't disappoint. As both of us are lactose intolerant, we were beyond satisfied. And this place treats their staff well by paying them a fair wage. Tips are optional as gratuity is already included in every purchase. This staff works their butts off and deserves every penny. Gati is my new favorite and I have actually added it to my All-Time Favorites list. I cannot wait to share this place with everyone I know and to visit again and again. Absolutely worth the hype!

    Cookie monster and blueberry coconut-based ice cream and a latte.
    Phillip M.

    A cute ice cream/bakery/cafe tucked behind a convenience store. The place specializes in making goods gluten-free, vegan, and other food allergy/intolerances. And one can also get regular milk in their latte as well. Having a minor lactose intolerance, I was looking forward to the ice cream and tasted a few before settling on the cookie monster and blueberry. For some reason, the more I ate the blueberry, the more I felt something was off with the flavor. However, both being coconut based was a godsend. Also, had a great latte! I would definitely visit again, if not to try more flavors like the Thai tea or the pandan.

    I came back recently to try their new food menu! Not only do they have delicious vegan ice cream (made from coconut milk), they also have breakfast and lunch, with some dishes that are of SE Asian origin. I was also pleasantly surprised to learn they actually expanded from Thai Fresh, one of my favorite Thai restaurants. I got the laksa noodles. After ordering, I was confused about the utensils because I could not find the forks, but they gave me chopsticks when they delivered the dish to me. Laksa was sooo good and had the perfect amount of spice for me. Staff is friendly and if you want to sample the ice cream, you may pick two. There is limited parking but coming for Saturday lunch, I was able to find a spot. It was the perfect weather to be seated outside but there are some flies. Also bought their Thai Basil ice cream to take home! Yum!

    Coconut ash
    Theo P.

    Wow! So good! We came here after a jazz show and let's just say it didn't disappoint. I had the coconut ash and coffee. Very tasty smooth and didn't make to feel bloated. 10/10 Ice Cream

    Breakfast salad

    During my stay near Holly Street in East Austin, I discovered Gati and wound up going there 4 or 5 times. It's a great little gem of a cafe that offers coffee drinks, other beverages, delicious food items, and even fantastic home made coconut milk ice cream. After a long walk in the late afternoon, i stopped in to try different ice cream flavors and there were all great - i guess i'm a traditionalist because I liked the mint chocolate chip the best, but the texas blueberry and texas peach were great, too. My guess is that any flavor you get a Gati will improve your life. I also tried the beet cocoa drink over ice and it was good, a bit gritty. On another morning, I got the shrimp & grits which was phenomenal, and the pan eggs with different kinds of sausage over egg white and with two hard boiled yolks. The breakfast salad was also good. Service was very personal. Gati has an outdoor area, counter area, and a room off to the right which I didn't know about until I was told about it and worked there for a few hours waiting for my next check-in time.

    I had a lovely experience at Gati in Austin! First off, parking was surprisingly easy. They have a small dedicated lot in front of the building (about 8 spots), and my friend and I both managed to snag a space. If the lot is full, there's free neighborhood parking nearby, which is a great backup option. The cafe has both indoor and outdoor seating. We opted for indoors and were grateful for the AC -- a much-needed break from the Texas heat! When you walk in, the display case with all the ice creams and pastries immediately catches your eye (and makes it very hard to stick to just ordering coffee and food!). You order at the counter, get a number, and then your food is brought out to you. There are vegetarian options, which is always nice to see. I had a latte and the pan eggs. Both were tasty, with the pan eggs served alongside in-house-made sourdough bread, which was a nice touch. The bread is gluten-free. My friend got a flat white and the waffle with a side of bacon and egg for extra protein. Everything was good -- solid flavors and well-prepared, though nothing that totally blew me away. Service was fast and attentive, and the overall vibe was peaceful, tucked away in a quiet neighborhood. Prices were reasonable, especially considering the quality and ambiance. Would definitely come back to try the pastries or ice cream next time!

    We were visiting my BFF in Austin, and I just knew I had to take my family here. I came with my…read moreBFF, my mom, and my aunt. They had me help them choose their drinks during this visit. Neither of them could finish their entire glass of beer, so I ended up chugging the remaining half of both of theirs. The customer service was so sweet--I was struggling to translate the menu with my mom, and the guy at the front desk was truly helpful throughout. It really raised the experience of this place during what could've been a relatively stressful situation. Dirty Horchata - I was hoping for a stronger horchata taste. It's not bad, so it was worth the shot! Just grateful it wasn't too sweet. My BFF felt the same, as we're both horchata fiends from growing up in Chicago. Cherry Cider - The cider has a tangy taste. The cherry flavor isn't as strong, but it's a fragrant drink. The flavor slowly became sweeter the more I drank it. It grew on me, but it wouldn't be my go-to unless I knew I was munching on something salty that night. Violet Blueberry Blonde - My favorite of the two. This one has a tamer flavor with a nicer floral note. It was exactly what I asked for. I felt like I could've easily chugged a few of these. The guy at the counter definitely chose a great pick. I love the low-key ambiance of this place, the peaceful nighttime atmosphere, the fact that it's wedged into a cozy nook, and how it isn't so LOUD like many bars. Didn't get bit by a mosquito while we hung out there for an hour, so that's a huge plus. They were probably chewing on my friends' legs too intently to consider me, though. Wish I had something like this near my place in Houston. I would regularly hang out here on a weekday, no cap.

    $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'd say this is my top 3 boba places (if not the THE TOP) in Austin!…read more Fantastic boba tea options, from the Hokkaido to Hong Kong style tea, this is as close as it gets to boba tea in Asia for folks who aren't tea lovers, there are coffee options too. Huge fan of the fruit tea slush options - you can totally mix it up with the toppings too. They do run out of the black boba pearl often though

    Overall: 4.5/5 [dine in]…read more We have been here twice and both times had a great experience. The staff is very helpful and makes sure they capture your preferences correctly. The space is aesthetically pleasing and really calming, a great place to study or just decompress. Mixed Rice Paper with Tamarind Sauce ($12.95): Yum, probably the best banh trang tron we have had in Austin or at least the most consistently good one. They ask if you want the ingredients kept separate or mixed together. If mixed, you need to eat it right away. We have tried both ways and even when we kept them separate and ate it later it was still just as good. Rice Paper Rolls / Banh Trang Cuon ($12.50): This one is different from the mixed rice paper in that it comes rolled with egg, while the other version has quail eggs and beef jerky. I think this rolled version is becoming my preferred way to eat banh trang. The dipping sauce that came with it was also really good. Mixed Rice Paper with Chili Salt / Banh Trang Muoi Ot Tron Kho ($6.50): A bit pricey for what it is but this is hard to find in Austin and it was well made. The rice paper was the right texture and the chili salt amount was spot on. Y7. Winter Melon Icy Slush ($6.80) + Crystal Taro ($1.15): Wow this was delicious and super refreshing. It was a bit too sweet for me but perfect for my husband. I loved the crystal taro too since you can taste the subtle taro flavor when you chew it. F1. Bee Vietnamese Style ($6.80) + Lychee Jelly ($0.95): My husband ordered this one but ended up liking the winter melon icy slush more. It was not bad but just nothing special.
