We love this new location of Radio coffee shop! It's large, has lots room to sit (including indoor), lots of parking space, and good food cart vendors on the property. The coffee and bakes goods are as good as the original location. In many ways it's a differently arranged replica that's roomier, but it's also more polished, the original location definitely seeming more aged now in comparison. Dogs are welcome at Radio, and it's a perfect spot to hang out with friends or family due to the roominess and the many options for food and drinks. I think this will be our go-to location in the future, it's a closer drive for us too, very convenient! read more

I actually came here for a workout event held by my kickboxing gym. After our workout, I popped in to grab an alcoholic beverage. Unfortunately I came on a Sunday so I had to buy a pastry in order to buy an alcoholic frozen. The frozen Saturn they had on tap was amazing! Too bad the glass was quite small. $12 for a frozen was definitely on the more expensive side especially for a more casual bar setting. What I do like about this place is that it's dog friendly and had much shade. My dog was quite comfortable chilling in the shade while I worked out. Overall I don't really think it was anything special compared to all the other casual bars around Austin. read more

Radio/East - Frozen Saturn - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Austin, Texas

Great outdoor (with fans) and indoor options, staff is so friendly. I was indecisive on what I wanted to try and the staff was patient and willing to answer my question. I got a coffee and a cocktail, both really good! They have food truck options which are decent. Vibes are great for work happy hour or to work on your laptop. Will be returning to check out their other menu items because I forgot to take pictures read more

Stoked for the new Radio East location! We visited their second day open and they had a few fun bands scheduled to play beginning at 7pm. The tables nearest the stage were $10 and the tables inside and out front did not have a cover charge. The vibes were great! We ordered a few IPAs and their Fall Old Fashioned. The cocktail was my fave. It was well balanced and fun to try. The bartenders were cranking out drinks and the lines never got too long. We'll be back! read more

Radio East is here! Radio East is here! Yay! Yay! The space is amazing! There is plenty of outdoor seating and places for your kids to run and play. They have an awesome stage outside with promises of lots of outdoor shows and events! I'm pumped to have the new spot in the area. The coffee concoction are endless. There are also food trucks to fill your belly. The staff here is super friendly. I already know this a new favorite spot for our family. Welcome to the neighborhood Radio! read more

I want to like this place. I really do. But for as far of a drive it is for me, it's just always empty and lacks the vibe I'm looking for. I'm just as far from the original Radio which is way more fun. Sorry, guys. read more

I've ate there for lunch and had a coffee date with my husband. I love the food and their coffee. The atmosphere is perfect for an ideal coffee house. I need to come here more often! read more

Great service, great set up/layout and vibe was sick! 10/10. Didn't get to try the food trucks but I'll definitely be doing back

If you're familiar with Austin outdoor bars, then you probably been to a place like this, that said that's not a bad thing. It's got a big outdoor space and a very roomy indoor area for the drinks. Just section of beers are satisfying. There's a farmers market in the back and a big stage for a live band to play as well. Use have to drive a little further out to get all of those things put together so we had a great time and we came to visit. read more

We're super happy and grateful to have Radio in southeast Austin. Much needed and fills a gap we were missing. Quality coffee and cocktails and some of the best food trucks in Austin to boot: Veracruz, side eye pie and a couple others I've yet to try. Always friendly staff and baristas, cozy digs inside that are great to work and chill in. Once warm weather returns it'll be popping. read more

A fancy place to be! The weather that day was perfect to be seating outside with our coffees, they have croissants and the one with chocolate inside is delicious, the only thing I was upset is that they don't have like a microwave at least to warm up the croissants. The coffees are good but a little strong. The place is really nice and big enough for people inside and outside. read more

Surprisingly good venue for outdoors. We caught a show there and it was a great spot for it.

Great combo coffee shop / bar / music venue. We saw the Infamous StringDusters and Bronwyn Keith-Hynes play on a chilly but lovely night. Heaters worked great. Entire show was great. read more

I really want to like this place, I really do, but it's been hard for me. The setting and vibe is great and exactly what I want at my casual go to watering hole, but the drinks are incredibly expensive. I ordered 2 beers, yes two beers, and the total came out to be $25 before tip, no beer should ever be that expensive. After 5-6 visits I've been priced out from being a regular which is disappointing. read more

This is now my new favorite study spot. I've never been too fancy on the original location due to the parking being a mess and there never seems to be an open table. But this location does not share the same problems. I was a little worried when arriving because I didn't know what the parking situation was going to be like but they have a huge parking lot! They also have a giant space to work with, they have seating all around the front, side and back of the shop. It looks like they have a stage so maybe they'll be having events soon. My favorite part was that they had so much seating inside so it was a breeze snagging a table close to an outlet. It was pretty quite and they are open until 12. They did start trivia at around 6/7 but even then it wasn't too distracting. They also have 3 food trucks at this location, Side eye pizza, Veracruz tacos, and a burger joint that I didn't catch the name of. Veracruz was good as always and the tacos were massive. I enjoyed this location and I'm glad that there's a cool place to get some work done in the area read more

Location- excellent and easy from a workout on east side of the lake Parking-large lot and likely spot or two on the street available Food trucks-Veracruz at this location alsoEnough said Outdoor space-loads of space and well landscaped. Large for a coffee house stage. Yay Drinks- chai was average. Asked for both drinks to go. One was to go . One was not. It did have beautiful heart art. Servers- very friendly order taker. Barista was kinda cranky about an order correction read more

Radio East combines everything that made the original location great (music, ambiance, drinks) with a vastly larger outdoor space to create the perfect spot for weekday hang outs and weekend shows. The coffee is some of the best you'll find in Austin and the cocktails are thoughtful and unique, not to mention there are 3 different food trucks parked outside, as well as their large outdoor stage (think something along the lines of Far Out Lounge) to boot. Out of the food trucks I'd say that Side Eye Pie is the best bang for your buck. Their menu is a concise selection of around 6 different slices of pizza for just $6.50 max a slice, and they're quite large. I tried both their "pretty fly for a white pie" and "whole hog" and have to say that the whole hog might have be one of my all time favorite meat pizzas ever. I can confidently say that Radio conveys the true spirit of Austin like almost no where else, and you'd be missing out if you didn't come and spend some quality time here. read more

Always loved this place, since the beginning at both locations, but tonight the service was terrible. Was ignored at the window after giving up and coming back when she seemed too busy with another customer. Came back when she finished with them, and she just ignored me further and started poking around with cleanup of the drink making equipment from her (apparently) only customers of value. Gave up again, saw that others were served at the window with success a minute later, so it was just about me. I guess the woman with tinted hair didn't like me in particular, just refused to serve me on multiple tries. Later I was able to get served at the window by somebody else. Seemed sympathetic to my complaint. read more

Food was great and the costumer service was amazing! The place was amazing! Super chill read more

This is a nice outdoor space with lots of options for drinks and a few different food truck options as well. I'm surprised that it isn't more busy because it has so much space and is really cool. The servers are knowledgeable and were able to give good suggestions on what to drink based on what I liked. read more

Immaculate vibes, clean, amazing food trucks, very aesthetic, good music, and dog-friendly! They also host fun events occasionally.

I already loved the original location and was so thrilled to see one open up in my neighborhood!! It has a newer, cleaner vibe than the original location. Minimal seating inside but plenty of patio and outdoor seating. Small parking lot with lots of street parking. Great food trucks, amazing coffee, and fantastic staff. Already a staple in my coffee shop rotation! read more

Checked out Radio East during their opening weekend, Friday night around 7:30pm and it was busy! They had to open up an extra area for sitting. We sat near the back that has a view of the stage. Great dog-friendly place with plenty of space (they could definitely add more tables), live music, plentiful parking (lot and street), and 3 food trucks on site. They have Veracruz (tacos), Shortwave East (burgers and hot dogs), and Side Eye Slice (pizza). The indoor space is also dog-friendly. read more

HEY, Radio! You're so pretty. I don't even mind that there's a busy street right off of the patio area. This place feels like a hidden oasis with good beer and coffee. I've been going during sunsets/dusk and it feels pretty magical. They have live music events on weekend evenings and may require a cover to stay in certain areas near the stage. The food trucks are always open and serving hot, fresh food. Overall, this is now one of my top recommended places for friends looking for an Austin-y, chill place to hang out with friends. read more

I love this local spot. Its versatile in that you can go for a coffe or tea during the day or a drink at night. They have great bands. The service is friendly. The food trucks are top notch. I have a favorite order at each truck. I love the outdoor vibe and the indoors is cozy on a rainy day. read more

My plan to go for many reasons coffee was excellent and the general space is really well done. There's plenty of seating indoor and our and you can always pair a great beverage with a meal from one of the food trucks. They were really thoughtful with not only the location, but the space having a concert stage as well. read more

Radio/East - Seasonal drinks Spiced Maple Oat left Espresso and tonic right - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Austin, Texas

Just tried to go see a show here. Short answer, don't. Y'all out boy was the most disappointing concert experience I've had in a long time. Absolutely no issues with the band, they rocked. Radio East is just simply not set up for a show like this. It was a mob scene with lines that were 75 people deep to get a drink at any of the bar options. They didn't check out tickets on the way in so idk if they had a bunch of non ticketed people that walked in or what but it was awful. We waited for half an hour to grab a drink and ended up leaving before we even made it close to the bar. The place seems cool to grab a coffee or beer on a normal night but don't go to a show here read more

I love this place! Today is my third day in a row coming. So excited to have a spot of this caliber in Southeast Austin finally. Great WiFi coverage and ample seating. Staff have always been friendly and tasty drinks. I've had the hot chocolate and hot chai tea. And it has a Veracruz Tacos truck! I can't wait to see how they use the huge event space in the back. Only cons I have are that the parking lot could be bigger; you might need to parallel park on the street. I would also like to see prices printed on the menu. Lastly, the acrylic ordering QR codes on the table also can interfere with placement if you have a computer. However, this place is still deserving of a solid FIVE STAR review! read more

We needed a spot to hang out and work before catching our plane. We will be back! Awesome choice of inside or outside options. James was patient and offered great info on drinks and snacks. Food trucks had wonderful mouthwatering aromas! My lavender mint ice tea quickly became a "must have again" item. Loved seeing all the pups hanging out with their humans. Fun casual comfy spot! Highly recommend. And I bet it really rocks when the music is live! read more

If you want to hang out with a group of friends or you just want to have a very well made and served drink this is the place. The service is astonishingly well and the vibe is appropriate for the type of culture there. There are some delicious options outside if you are hungry ! read more

Lame that I can't buy a coffee when they have a show going on. What the hell? Create a separate area for those that just want a coffee. You know- what this place is for. read more

Love it! Great to have this added in this location, we needed it! Also love that there's ton of space, they are dog friendly, and the pizza place sells slices. Excited to see some music here. read more

I absolutely love this place, the coffee is always delicious and the employees are always so friendly and welcoming, love to sit outside and enjoy the weather, if you're trying to enjoy the inside, good luck! It's always full of people with laptops you can't enjoy yourself because they're talking on the phone next to you or there's no where to sit because they have their laptops and bags all over the sitting area, beyond that I highly recommend this place. read more

We LOVE coming here and trivia is FIRE! They take great care of their patrons and we are huge fans of Nolan and Trivia512. Thanks for making our days so much more joyful. You have fans for life! Love, The Search & Seizure Crew read more

I checked out Radio/East this past week and loved the ambiance and the quality of the coffee along with the breakfast tacos. The customer service was on-point. Would deff return read more

Nice new location! Love the ease of ordering from the table and picking up at the bar. Beautiful spot but don't sit at the front side of the patio if you want to have a quiet conversation, the traffic noises can be loud. Good beer and drink selection. We tried Veracruz which is always amazing. The pizza place was lacking though. I expected personal pizzas from the picture on the website and was disappointed by a slice. Should have known from the name side eye slice though. Not really worth the cost in my opinion but it was pizza. Will definitely come back again! read more
