    I have been wanting to try El Primo's breakfast tacos for a bit so while I was at it, walked over to Once Over for a hot latte. They have so many syrups! The baristas were so cool! Once Over has the ATX vibe. Come as you are and be kind. My lavender latte with almond milk was delish!

    I love the aesthetic that's presented as soon as you enter the parking lot, the personable customer service, and judge-free environment. The Latte was perfect thanks to their recommendation of using their Homemade Brown Sugar Syrup If you need a place to take yourself on a little coffee date or just to chill, I'd definitely recommend Once Over. I'll be back!

    Great queer owned coffee shop on south 1st! Great vibes and digs the espresso is strong and baristas are friendly and helpful.

    Very chill and cozy coffee shop on S 1st. I love the back patio by the creek - much appreciated peace in the hustle bustle of the city. We ordered latte and cappuccino, the latte was okay for me but my bf loved his cappuccino and got the second one. They have a lot of special drinks options like ube and nutella latte-which are quite unique and intriguing from my experience. They have some donuts and bagel options for food too. The two ladies working there were super chill and friendly. I'd love to go back

    Exceptional experience here! There was only one barista working this morning, but she killed it! She was able to chat and make the coffee at the same time. I noticed she also remembered a lot of the returning customers. Halloween vibes at this coffee shop. I got the macadamia latte with oat milk and it was perfection. The latte had the perfect amount of foam and it was not too sweet, and you can taste the macadamia flavor. My friend got an iced chai which was a concentrated chai with oat milk. The chai was spicy - just the way she liked it! I recommend visiting this small town coffee shop! They are dog friendly and have treats for your furry friends!

    Found myself here for a caffeine boost after my stroll in the park nearby on a Monday during my Austin trip a few months ago. Next to the El Primo taco truck, this coffee place is tiny but got personality to it. I dig the wooden counter top finish and the baristas are friendly. A tiny dog park is also in the front and I do emphasize the word tiny. As for coffee drinks, the pistachio latte was my go-to and it was pretty dope with the flavors and milk foam blend. The barista who took my order told me it was one of their best sellers and I can see why after my first sip. I took the beverage to go as I was about to dig in on some tacos from El Primo although a part of me wishes I could've had my drink in the shop and soaked in the atmosphere such as the artwork and flyers plastered on the walls. I appreciate Austin for having a coffee spot like this. Only issue is parking can be difficult due to the lack of spots and availability so you may have to park on the street and walk here which is what I did. Be careful since people in this city aren't the friendliest drivers; probably due to a lack of caffeine in their lives!

    Coffee is high quality plus I had a yummy croissant. Loved the shaded back patio overlooking creek.

    A cute coffee shop with cool decor and art for sale by local artists, always a favorite of mine in a coffee shop! Their back deck looked like a great place to read/work, but it rained heavily recently so I wasn't able to check it out. Barista was friendly and the coffee was delicious. I got a caramel latte with oat milk. It was a tad on the sweet side for me, so next time I'll be asking for light syrup. Don't get me wrong, it was still delicious, but trying to reduce sugar intake Hope to visit again the next time I'm in Austin

    What oatmilk is used? Is it gluten free?

    Yes! It's the "tiniest dog park" right out front of the quaint shop. Bring your doggo.

Mañana is located at the South Congress Hotel has coffee + tea, bakeshop and grab + go offerings (primarily water, kombucha, paletas and juices). Of course I was there for a latte spiked with black sesame vanilla (their most popular latte) according to my barista, which I paired with an almond bear claw. This was not your typical bear claw as it was not eye-squinting sweet but bursting with almond flavoring primarily in the center. It was almost like a crescendo in a symphony when you got to the center of the bear claw. My latte was flavorful in a subtle way with the sesame vanilla permeating throughout the latte. It is important to note that they make their own pastries and tacos each day. The pastries are a bit pricey costing more than my latte. The coffee shop has floor to ceiling windows on two sides with one of the windows opening into a courtyard with additional seating. The beautifully titled coffee bar immediately grabs your attention. In addition, service was quick and efficient. I was in and out the coffee shop within 10 minutes. I parked right in front of the coffee shop as it was early before the meters started to tick.

You could tell the space was being used by remote workers, students and others who enjoyed a visually appealing space. Now for the coffee...I tried a seasonal pumpkin latte. It was flavorful, smooth and nicely balanced. My latte was paired with a bacon, egg and cheese taco from Denizos down the street. Notably, the taco was stuffed with ingredients and the homemade flour tortilla elevated the taste. Also, they serve pastries from Sour Duck, which provides additional choices. In addition, they have a moderate amount seating inside and small amount of covered seating outside.

I usually only go to coffee shops to work, but today, went on a coffee date with my dog instead. There's ground floor parking in the garage that's complimentary for two hours. I kept it simple with a vanilla latte. I noticed they had tacos at the bottom of the food menu, but at $13.25 for two tacos + an a la carte item, I decided to pass. Maybe my expectations were too high (as usual) because it's inside a hotel, but I was hoping for the kind of warm hospitality hotels are known for, but instead, the service felt a bit cold. It didn't exactly make me want to spend more money there. While sitting on the patio, I spotted the food truck outside and thought, "PERFECT. A food truck HAS to be cheaper. Take that Simona's!" I walked up to the window... only to find out it wasn't actually a separate food truck. It was just the pickup window. To order? I had to go back inside to Simona's and place my order with the delightful staff... I ended up ordering two Blue Migas tacos, and honestly, they were just... good, but nothing memorable. They tasted like your average breakfast tacos that you can find all over Austin for less. Despite loving how relaxing the outdoor patio is with its lucious greenery surrounding you and the beautiful French chairs and cafe tables, it's located right next to the hotel pool. If you're visiting on a summer afternoon, expect some extra noise with pool guests. If you're looking for a quiet coffee or a place to work, I'd recommend coming early in the morning instead.
