I got the açaí bowl, which was a good portion of açaí that was topped with fresh fruit. For $12, it is on par with other açaí bowl offerings in SA. You're definitely getting the quality for the price. My only complaint is that there are no water stations, so you have to ask someone working at the counter for water/refills. The water cups are also tiny, maybe only 4 oz. I didn't try the coffee/drinks, but the prices are comparable to other coffee spots.

Super dirty café and average food…read more Former coffee shop and specialty tea shop barista here. I swung by Terra Cafe this afternoon for lunch and was pretty disappointed in my visit. Though the barista was very sweet, the cleanliness of the café as a whole was abysmal. The restroom was nasty, literally all of the vacant tables in the dining area were either covered in food crumbs or coffee rings, and there was stuff splattered on the walls. The food was also just mid at best. I ordered the Lavender Matcha Latte with oat milk and a Terra Burger. The Matcha Latte wasn't anything special. It was crafted decently, but entirely lacking in flavor. It didn't taste like grass fortunately enough, but the taste of the matcha itself was very weak and was nearly lost to the lavender and oat milk. As for the Terra Burger, I've simply had better vegan burgers. The patty itself was rather bland and seemed to rely far too heavily on the spicy mayo for flavor, but the sauce just didn't do the job. Texture-wise it was a pretty good burger, it just didn't have the flavor to hold it up. Between the filthiness of the bathroom, the dining area in need of cleaning, and food not good enough to offset the uncleanliness, I'm totally okay with not returning to Terra Cafe. If you give this place a try, I hope you at the very least have a cleaner experience.

Casual eatery- order at counter and pay..food will be delivered to your table. But, what did I encounter upon entering? omg their beautiful pastries, desserts, and Mexican conchas. Picked up a guava pastry for later. Ordered the Mexican Cubano torta without cheese and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I chose the birote bread- sourdough crispness on the outside with soft inside texture. This torta packed a ton o' flavor! Ham, bacon, kielbasa sausage, pickles, and bread slathered in their chipotle mustard and cilantro mayo. Delicious! I chose the house salad, rather than soup. Tummy was more than happy. For dessert, I ate the guava pastry in the evening- buttery pastry with a sweet guava jelly filling. Yum! Happy to return in the future to try other menu items : ) Lovely interior decor, indoor and outdoor seating , clean establishment.

It is a little on the pricey side, but the lattes and bakery items are really good. They used to have a sugared donut that was my absolute favorite, but unfortunately they no longer carry it. The tortas aren't your typical Mexican torta, but they're still good in their own way. That said, I don't really come here for the main food--I come for the bakery and the café vibe. The salads are also solid if you're looking for something lighter. Service is ok. There's this one guy who usually cleans the tables and he's so friendly. I didn't catch his name but he's on it. I'll Get his name next time im there.

Mom said it was the best coffees she's ever had so it def passed the test! When we walked out my sister and I both said wow that man is so calm kind and Christ-like. We were truly in awe of his confidence and the way he comforted and helped everyone in the room. This was truly an interaction we will never forget and we spoke about in the car and said "What would it look like for us to slow down and look people in the eye and serve them this way." Leaving encouraged and inspired!

I ordered a latte and was a little worried it might be overly sweet, but it ended up being perfectly balanced--smooth, flavorful, and not too sugary at all. For food, I had the turkey, egg, and bacon sandwich on a brioche bun with arugula and chipotle mayo, and it was absolutely delicious. The flavors worked really well together, and the brioche added just the right touch of richness. Overall, it was a really enjoyable breakfast experience, and I would definitely come back!

Reason why I'm giving this place a two star and not higher is because when we ordered our…read moresandwiches and I noticed the white part of the egg was a little runny and not fully cooked, I took it back to the front to request it be remade, the manager and cook ensured me it was. Despite me SHOWING them where the egg was NOT FULLY COOKED THROUGH. I cook eggs for myself everyday. And being pregnant the egg must fully be cooked through. They were telling me it's bc of the cheese melted on top. Which has nothing to do with the egg. You could see the clear distinction between the cheese and egg. I wish I had taken a photo to share. They would not take it back to be remade. So I just said forget it and we ate them anyway. Since I'm in my third trimester I figured I should be fine. However a great manager would have made sure they were remade. I use to work in the restaurant biz and the customer is always right. And I was showing them their error and they were working to convince me it was cooked all the way, again when you could clearly see it wasn't. Also my hubs strawberry lemonade was not even filled up all the way in the cup. I would expect if we are paying for something that doesn't have a refill, at least fill it up all the way. Oh and my BIGGEST disappointment is that there is NO BURRITO!! We actually came here for that specifically, only to find out that it has not been on the menu for over a year, yet that is the one review and promotion that pops up when you look at this establishment. So it's false advertising and should be taken down since they no longer make the burrito. Also if you're coming here to work, it's super small and cramped. I did see a ton of people sitting with laptops and having meetings. However I wouldn't come to this place to work, unless it's the only option in your area. Overall, next time I'm in town, we won't coming back here, primarily bc it's close to the Eilan hotel we stayed at and we definitely won't be staying there again. Already wrote my review about that place, and I don't recommend it.

I stopped in recently with a group of friends for brunch and I already know it won't be our last visit. All of the tables inside were full so we grabbed a table on their patio deck (there are more seats outside than inside fyi) and then took turns holding the table while others went inside to order. You do go inside to a counter to order (conveniently located by the pastry case) and take a number and wait for your yummy food to be brought out to you. I opted to go with Chilaquiles with pork belly and it was soooooo good. Highly recommend. It's a very generous serving also and I wasn't able to completely finish my plate. Everyone else at my table absolutely raved about their dishes too so I don't think any option you go with will be a bad one. Check them out for your next brunch or lunch outing!

My friend and I met for coffee before having lunch at Noodle Tree next door. I ordered a cinnamon roll, a cortado, and a gingerbread latte. The cinnamon roll, although small, packed a mighty, mighty kick. It had a thick coating of icing, and the cinnamon sugar inside was thick and sweet. The gingerbread latte was sweet and spicy, though the molasses at the bottom of the cup did throw me off. The cortado, though, was magic. I've been tasting cortados across San Antonio lately, and Indy's has absolutely cracked my top 5 out of the 20 I've tasted so far. Excellent temp, not watering, not acidic or bitter. Just smooth and comforting. That first sip sent me sailing over clouds and rainbows. I don't live too far - I need to go back more frequently.
