This spot is very unsuspecting, in a super empty commercial lot. The vibes were a bit...off? It was…read moresuper silent and awkward. Like barely any music and zero conversation. Maybe that's great for a work space but just felt very uncomfortable as a spot to come sit and hang out with my toddler. Who I mean, yes he is a toddler and not super quiet but he was being very well behaved and not overly loud. So I definitely don't recommend this spot for hanging out with someone to chat or with children--strictly a workplace. I just prefer a more welcoming, warm vibe for coffee spots and this felt cold. That all being said, the barista was kind enough. Unfortunately, the iced latte was watery and too light. Maybe stick to hot drinks or non-milk options, and come here for strictly to-go or quiet work.

We've lived in South Austin for the last 5 years, and have seen bars come and go. Only ever stopped…read moreby the Hive a couple of times despite living across the street, but decided to pop in to see the changes Saturday. Honestly, I told my husband it could be a spot I'd be a regular at if the changes keep trending the way they are! Loved the new bartop and setup, and how it has an alternative feel to it between the look and music. Nice that it's not just another sports bar. The service was great, and everyone got a really genuine greeting when they walked through the door (which has been lacking on menchaca lately). Loved the option of late night food as well. We had already had dinner but the sandwich next to me looked amazing. Looking forward to stopping by again.

The place itself is small and cozy, and the menu is pretty simple, mostly coffee, a few snacks, and…read morea couple of food options. It's not the kind of spot where you go for a full meal, but for a quick bite or a coffee break, it works just fine. The coffee was actually nice, smooth, not too bitter. I also ordered a sandwich, and that part didn't go as smoothly. They completely forgot about it, so my friend and I ended up sitting there for almost half an hour before we finally went inside to ask about it. Only after that did they bring it out. It wasn't a huge deal, but it definitely took away from the experience. Inside, though, the atmosphere wasn't quite my style. The interior is noticeably dark, and it felt a bit heavy, so I didn't feel like staying indoors for long. But the outdoor seating completely changed the experience. Outside it's much brighter and more welcoming, with a comfortable, relaxed vibe. If the weather is good, it's honestly a great spot to sit for a while, drink your coffee, and just slow down a bit.

If you're someone who prefers a very strong, intense matcha flavor, this one might feel a bit on the lighter side, but honestly it's still incredibly enjoyable and well-balanced. I also tried the avocado toast and loved it. One detail that really stood out is that they use sourdough bread from Easy Tiger, which makes a big difference, the bread is high quality and gives the toast amazing flavor and texture. The whole place feels very cute and thoughtfully set up. It's a bit of a hidden gem in the area and definitely worth stopping by if you're nearby. The staff were very friendly, we were helped by a really lovely woman who made the experience even nicer. There are a couple of tables where you can sit. Overall, such a great impression.

This cafe is one of my favorite fantasy driven locations to visit in all of Austin…read more Their rotating special menu with unique flavors make this a standout in an oversaturated marketplace. Austin is known for having a lot of coffee, but very few have identifiable differentiators. Merfolk's creates coffee flavors based on fantasy lore, so you honestly never know what the special menu will have. That's why we keep spending our money there. Many of the drinks are sweet but the staff is more than happy to make adjustments as needed! The ambiance is also so cute and whimsical.

My boyfriend had Angela's Ashes (iced)---I took a few drinks of that and woo-wee is it good. It's Mexican mocha, oatmilk, and cookie butter. The baristas are true artists creating liquid masterpieces.
