The girls at the counter were very friendly, answered any questions, and were accommodating. Their milk teas contain non dairy creamer which was good with me since I try to avoid lactose. I ordered my go to I haven't had in quite a long time anywhere.... Taro milk tea with boba. What a treat! Smooth, silky, and a pretty shade of lavender. Noticed some yummy desserts behind the glass display case, perhaps I'll try at the next visit. Ample seating and board games available to play. I'll be back!

The Boba was pretty good, I expected it a little sweeter though. The inside is super cute, they used to have an extra room for arcade games but I'm guessing they shut it out now that there's another company next to them, I wish they still had that though. They're always super nice and will walk out the drink to you if you're in drive thru or even if you're just sitting down. Will come again!

If you're anything like me, I've been through Castroville and into Hondo, and in both towns I've…read morehad the same thought: "This town needs a good coffee shop". Hondo...forget it. But if you're in or around Castroville - I'd tell you to go to Octane Coffee. Found them on Yelp this morning. They are tough to find. As a matter of fact, when I pulled up to their current location I literally said aloud in my car..."Is this a joke? - this is a winery." But after a short investigation, I did indeed find good coffee. I spent about an hour hanging out with the owner and his mother. We were the only ones in the place. They were both incredibly friendly. The Hazelnut latte I ordered was just hot enough, had four shots in it, and was very good. Plus - they had wifi :) I even bought a bag of coffee the owner recommended. I was sorry to hear the story about their current location, though. Seems they used to be "downtown Castroville", but the landlord kept raising their rent, and he could only roast his coffee beans during certain times, etc. Sad when local business are pushed out for almighty dollar.... Anyway - They moved to this current location, which, I'll be honest, is not the most convenient - but it gives the owner a chance to do his deal! Wishing them all the best! Will go back if I'm in the area...

This place felt very much like visiting a grandmas house as they had couches and separate rooms. It made very easy to have some privacy if you choose to do work or have a little meeting here. I liked the flavor options they had here, very unique like blueberry hill, honey bee, Dubai chocolate and more. Very sweet place and I would definitely come back!

I took a look at the menu and honestly there were so many good choices, but my friend and I decided to go for the red thai milk tea and the earl grey milk tea! The drinks were incredible and the boba had a nice texture to it as well! The man working there was incredibly sweet and even insisted I signed up for the rewards program as I would be only a drink away from earning a reward! If this place was a bit closer to where I live, I'd definitely would be making my way back often! I would also love to come back and study here with friends!

Smooth, strong, and exactly what you need to get your life together for the day. Whether you're grabbing something quick or sitting down to pretend you're productive (we've all been there), it just works.

Bonus: It has that "support local" feel that makes your coffee taste just a little better.

In Castroville, one of the places I visit most has to be Magnolia Filling Station, the only true…read morecoffee shop in town. It's small, always busy, and always slinging quality coffee. The shop is made from an old gas station that was converted into a cafe. They serve pastries along with a wide range of coffee beverages. I always find myself drawn to their seasonal drinks, which are usually themed around something fun. This year's holiday menu was Ice Age themed, but I remember last year being Shrek themed, and I think there was even a Top Gun themed menu at some point over the summer. For the Ice Age menu, I got a Manny which was a Chocolate Orange Mocha drink. I got it hot and it was great! The space inside is quiet, nice, and well lit. It's a great place to get work done. In the past, I've noticed the wifi could be tragically slow, which made some tasks difficult. During my most recent visit, though, I don't recall the wifi being slow at all, so it seems like that issue has been fixed. There is also plenty of outdoor seating if you get lucky with one of the three nice weather days in San Antonio. I really like the coffee here. For such a small shop, they do a great job, and it has become an essential stop for me every time I am in Castroville. RIYL: Coffee shops that are old gas stations but do not have a functional gas pumps anymore, so you don't accidentally get gasoline instead of a latte. I hate when that happens!!
