My favorite coffee place in town! Love this location especially. They make a killer iced americano and when I'm in the mood, Moonraker. Yum! They have a nice assortment of baked goods and taco options for grab 'n go in the morning. Glad that this place is right by my work! read more

When I first walked in I was surprised by how busy it was (it was a Sunday morning though). I planned on doing work there so I found a spot first and then ordered later because, honestly I was a little overwhelmed and wasn't sure about the line. I got the Half Moon latte with an extra shot of espresso (for free!) and it was perfect! problem finding a seat to get some work done. Maybe I'll try the Wintermoon or another one of their drinks next time. Wait time was quick despite a lot of people and staff was super friendly and open to questions about the menu! Most people got their orders to go, so it was a quick in an out. I think the place could be a little more organized/welcoming for first timers, but everything else was great! Also, they have a super cute brick wall for a great photo op! read more

Summer Moon Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Austin, Texas

Exquisite coffee and the best vegan pop tarts! If you come just for the pop tarts it will have been worth the trip!

Summer moon gets the ole' Bar Rescue stress test every day, and they're doing a great job. Always busy. The quality of my coffee is never affected by the influx of people in the morning going about 3-4 times a week during business days. The only improvement that I can think of is the separation of where coffee is picked up for customers who order in store vs. those online. It creates a crowd of people at the pickup bar. Maybe putting up a screen that faces people to show whose coffee is ready for pickup. I don't know, anyways amazing coffee highly recommend. read more

Their Moon Milk is disgustingly sweet and I'm pretty confident it's just condensed milk. I have to specify that they use unsweetened milk anytime they make my coffee because they seem to add it to everything. The coffee itself is okay once they use normal milk, but it is nothing to write home about. Aside from that, my review isn't low because of their coffee. My major issue is with the customer service and the lack of logistics they have when making coffee. Not sure if it's a lack of training or what, but the staff seem to constantly be running around in a panic, which often leaves no one at the register. I've been here a few times and have seen long lines that were not being attended to because they were franticly trying to figure out orders. I don't understand how they fail to notice long lines forming; they will just completely ignore people or stop taking orders because they're doing something else. It also takes AGES to get your order once it's in. I don't think they have any system to how they make orders, because they are always backed up with orders and are constantly forgetting orders. I would avoid this place if you are looking to get quick coffee to go because every time I go it takes about 15 minutes to get anything. What prompted me to write this review was an incident today where it took 25 minutes for me to get my order. When I asked about it after noticing everyone behind me had gotten their orders already, the staff kinda gave me a blank look and was like "Uh.....what did you order?". I repeated my order and she wrote it on the cup and put it AT THE BACK OF THE LINE while they were making new orders. There were at least 10 drinks in front of mine. I got upset and made her make it right in front of me because I refused to wait any longer. Not only did they forget my order, but instead of offering to quickly correct the issue she just tossed the cup on the counter and said it would eventually get made when all the other orders in front of me were done. Uhm. No. I should have had it ages ago! When I made her make mine first, she got a real nasty attitude and slammed it down on the table after making it. In fact, no one in this place smiles at you. They act like it's a chore to make your coffee and like they're doing you a favor for taking your order. AND THEY CHATTER CONSTANTLY WITH EACH OTHER. Like I will literally watch them stop everything they are doing to gossip or talk to a customer/friend for ages. No wonder your lines go out the door. Also, the staff are too lazy to add a lid and straw to your drink so you have people crowding the counter to try and get lids, which ends up with coffee sloshing all over the counter. Pure and utter laziness. While I honestly hate the Starbucks coffee nearby, I go there simply because I get my order promptly and the staff are always extremely polite. It's a shame because I really wanted to like this place; however, I don't see them getting my money anytime soon. read more

Friendly and quick great service! Coffee was very good!!! Recently visited a summer moon shop in Austin and had to try the winter moon ice latte again since it's so close by here. This is our new favorite coffee shop and highly recommend if you're looking other than the usual Starbucks. Definitely will be back and thank you!! read more

Fell in love with Summermoon on my first visit way back when at their South First location (I think around 2008 or 2009). Now, by some miracle, there's a Summermoon right down the street from my place. And although hot coffee is my preference, their Frozen Hot Chocolate is among my most ordered drinks there. It's (per their menu) "a rich and creamy chocolate milkshake that tastes like Hot Chocolate. Infused with Moon Milk, it is sweet and delicious. Add whipped cream to make it even more amazing!" And I always add the whipped cream! But when in the mood for something less on the sweet side, their coffee without anything added is straight-up out of this world! The flavors notes from the oak they roast their beans with giving​​ their coffee a smokey flavor unmatched by any other joint around​! I visit Summermoon at least once or twice weekly...it's one of my favorite coffee spots​! read more

I love love love Summermoon coffee. The service however, is becoming a problem by a select few staff. I live very close to this location, so I come a few times week since they opened. I keep getting lukewarm lattes and rude service. For $5.00 that better be damn good, which it is - but room temp = nasty! Even when there's no one in the shop, they're super slow, mostly apathetic and bathroom needs looking after. I shouldn't have to wait as long as the Domain location- esp since there's hardly anyone there. What gives ya'll!? I don't need you to remember my name, but at least a "thank you" or being pleasant. I'd rather come here than Starbucks. Please get better so I can give you my money in exchange for good coffee and service. Otherwise I'm back to the small cafe down the street which is pretty good too..but could use some MoonMilk. read more

Great coffee. Weekends can be very busy. Order ahead on their app will save you time.

I went. I drank. I left. It was one fine mid-afternoon. I came by to try the raving half-wintermoon. My first reaction to it was, "Ew. This tastes like watered down coffee with toooooo much cream&sugar." My second reaction was for me to lie to my bf saying that it tasted good because I really begged him to come here on our trip to Austin days before our trip. Maybe I'm being too harsh. Maybe I should've tried the full-wintermoon coffee like everybody did in the reviews or at least the hot version of wintermoon called summermoon. The location however was really big and had much needed space to study. I liked it. Not the coffee though. Just the space. Now that I think about it, I guess my tastebuds are a particular bunch on my tongue. It just won't agree with other people's tastebuds with coffee. Hmm... maybe next time. read more

Summer Moon Coffee - Half- wintermoon and smother iced Americano - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Austin, Texas

Damn it. Why did my girlfriend introduce me to coffee that makes most others seem like day old Folgers?

No descriptions of the coffees if you are a new customer you don't know what to get! I got a iced blue moon latte and it tasted really bad! I was expecting a regular iced coffee! So bad, they need to have descriptions of their drinks! The coffee was more on the room temp side and the ice melted pretty quickly because it hardly had any. Overall I won't be back, overpriced as well. read more

Amazing service and atmosphere. I asked the cashier what I should get and he recommended me his favorite which was amazing.

Only wish there was one closer to me. The moon milk is addicting so beware. Hands down my favorite coffee spot since moving to Austin recently. read more

Summer Moon Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Austin, Texas

See all

I've done here several times now and have always loved it! It's usually filed with people more often than not, but I don't blame them for coming to sip on the best coffee ever. There is limited seating, indoor and out, so you're lucky if you find a place to sit and chat or study! Noise level is that of a typical cafe. Coffee: summermoon/wintermoon are a MUST. It is pretty sweet, so if you aren't about that life, try the halfmoons. If not, any coffee is really truly frraking delish. I always help myself to their lemon poppyseed loaves! Tastes so good all the time, I don't know how they do it but I wish I could get the recipe. Service is always great and the baristas are super friendly and helpful read more

Failure to follow simple instructions. I order and tell them 3 inches of room. Prior to this review I have sent an email to the company as directed on their web site. I tip 2.00 on a 3.50 order to 'inspire' them to follow my simple directions of leaving three inches of room. I will now simply post a review each time that they fail in that simple request, to leave three inches of room. read more

Summer Moon Coffee - This is accompanied by a 1 star review. I ask for 3 inches of room and I 'beg' in my order to ensure the message is heard. FAIL! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Austin, Texas

The coffee here with its moonmilk is so so good. Though many coffee shops were in the area, I ended up coming here 2x in 2 days when I was in Austin. I happened upon one location and after my first sip, was immediately sad that I didn't think I'd be able to come back since it was far from where I was staying, but lucky for me I discovered there was a second location near me. Yay! So I tried both the quarter wintermoon with almond milk and the blue wintermoon (moon milk w lavender) and both were so good. The perfect amount of sweetness, smooth, full flavor and on par with my other coffee fav, Philz. Also tried a couple breakfast burritos which was a nice snack. I definitely look forward to coming back here again one day! read more

I love Summermoon!! Great coffee and vibes. My friend who lives in Austin told me about this place and i fell in love with their half Wintermoon! Wintermoon = 100% Sweetness Half wintermoon = 50% sweetness Quarter wintermoon = 25% sweetness Their secret ingredient moon milk is amazing! I've only tried their wintermoon drinks, but I would love to try their other drinks. They have a few locations scattered around Austin so be sure to check them out read more

Wintermoon is easily one of the best iced lattes I ever had. Must be whatever they put in their moon milk which is most likely condensed milk and other sugary amazing stuff. Next time I'll probably go for the Half Moon to cut the sweetness. Just a personal preference. Ambiance and environment is really good for those productive days. For as crowded as it gets, there are not a lot of seating and outlets. read more

ALL PRAISES UP FOR SUMMERMOON ON BURNETT!! I love this place! Such a warm modern yet austinite vibe!! I use to go to the original location on 1st but once I found out about the north location ???? Can you say moving on up!!! Plus it's closer to my house. I haven't had a bad drink here yet. THE BEST CHAI LATTES IN TOWN HANDS DOWN! & I've tried them everywhere. It can be ordered either spiced or vanilla I believe but I've always gotten the vanilla. It's the perfect amount of sweetness! They have a huge mix of coffee & non coffee selections both hot & cold but not too many food options. I tired the wintermoon once which is an ice coffee drink & its PRETTY SWEET! Even for an everything sweet loving girl like myself. Will probably order a half wintermoon next time. My friends typically get the mocha drinks & they love them too! This place is pretty jumpin so seating can be a mad dash if you plan on staying there for long periods of time. If you're just stopping in for a drink then you'll be fine. The line always moves pretty fast. Overall, a BOMB AF coffee shop with BOMB AF drinks. Don't care for the seat competition but people are always willing to share a table with you so be ready to make a new friend lol. read more

This cafe is just like home! I've spent so much time here with friends. The Baristas here are the friendliest lot. Coffee is simply the best and anyone in Austin will tell you how good Summermoon is. read more

Barista with the bulging green eyes and messy grundge look has an extremely horrible attitude to be at the front. I walked in and the touch pad was turned so I selected what I wanted. She approached me and starts berating me, "You don't do that. We do that for you! It's company policy, you'll never get your drink that way." "Oh okay, the pad was facing me, I thought I'd just place my order," I responded. "That's not how it works here, we put your drink in!" She said witha scowl and roll of her eyes. When she turned the touch pad back towards me to sign she flipped it so hard it went back to her. She was visibly triggered by my innocent mistake. By looking at the reviews it appears that this location is declining at a rapid pace. I LOVE SummerMoon coffee but I will not be returning to this location, because of her. The pick up area was a complete disaster as well. I understand they get busy but there are seven baristas and not one is cleaning up. I'd rather go to the Anderson and Burnet location, much friendlier and cleaner! read more

So good. Love love love a summer moon! The coffee is always so amazing and the people are so nice. Definitely a place to grab some great coffee before starting your day. read more

extremely sweet drinks which i personally like but it was a bit too sweet even for me wintermoon 4/5 tasted like a liquid Starbucks frappe probably recommend their less sweet drinks haha read more

I've noticed that each summermoon has a different ambience to it - either a very well-lit store more ideal for studying or a darker, more "austin-y" vibe. This particular location is what I would categorize as "austin-y" with darker colored furniture and less natural lighting. I ordered a peppermint mocha moon, and I enjoyed it. They didn't have the matcha moon or autumn moon on the menu, but I saw people order these! So I'm thinking if you know of these items, they can make it for you. They're also willing to remake drinks for you if you feel it's unsatisfactory! read more

I love this place! Kindest workers ever and my favorite latte in Austin. I love the 1/2 moons with oat milk :)

The coffee and the order pick up is always a good experience! Love my full summer moon. It's not the traditional coffee or latte but it's a great flavor. Try it! read more

I absolutely love this place! Like all the other reviewers have mentioned before, it's a must to get their moon drinks. I got the summer moon latte and it was so incredibly delicious. It's a must for those who love their coffee creamy, smooth, and sweet. I think I would have preferred the half moon latte because the summer moon was a bit too sweet for me. I love how they separate their HOT and COLD drinks so that there's no confusion between the different moon drinks. I also saw some people getting milkshakes aka the "moon glacier" which I thought was interesting. There is really every drink you can possibly think of here. The only downsides I could think of for Summermoon would be the long line (almost to the entrance door) and expensive prices for the drinks ($4 for a latte). However, I thought it was worth the wait and the price for my drink. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Highly recommend!! read more

Summer Moon Coffee - Summermoon Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Austin, Texas

I was nearby and was in desperate need of some coffee. To my surprise, Summermoon was only a 2 minute drive away!! Popped in and the moon milk caught my eye. Was originally going to order the Wintermoon, but thankfully the girl at the waitress warned me that it's fully sweet! I opted for the half wintermoon and it was still a little too sweet for my taste, but I was able to easily adjust to it. The drink itself was really creamy and smooth. Just the perfect amount of caffeine to keep me going for the drive to San Antonio. The decor was also really cute. I loved the brick wall and couch by the window. This would be a perfect spot for studying! read more

I came here on a Sunday afternoon to study for a couple hours and I think this might be my new favorite coffee shop in Austin. For starters, there's a decent sized parking lot out front with tons of spots, so it's very convenient to get in and out of. When I came, the place was pretty packed, but I was still able to find a seat (they have tons of seating options). They make this specialty "Moon Milk" that they can add to their drinks, and I highly recommend it. It's a bit on the sweeter side, so I'd recommend getting the Half Moon (half moon milk, half regular milk) to start if you don't want it to be too sweet. I got the Half Moon Latte, and it was incredible! They also have a ton of other drink options and food. Wifi is fast, there's a lot of places to sit and study/chill, and the ambience is great. Worth checking out. read more

Came by this place accidently. I am so happy I did, the espresso was delicious.. their milk/ creamer was really delicious and sweet. They have their own milk that they made with 7 other ingredients. I normally get a latte with flavoring but I didn't need to add anything to this plain latte because the milk was already flavored and sweetened. Customer service was great. I'm only visiting Austin but plan to go back. read more

Summer Moon Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Austin, Texas

I was visiting Austin like so many from LA and found this gem near where I was staying. I have to say everything from their breakfast tacos to the quality of their merch was the best. Not to mention their coffee and mochas were super tasty. Even the hot sauce for the tacos was something special. Thank you for making my experience in Austin that much better read more

Popped in here on a Sunday morning and there was a huge line! It went by pretty quickly and I was able to place my order with the friendly barista! I ordered a full wintermoon which is a latte: a shot of espresso and the rest with their house made sweetened "moon milk." I also ordered an extra shot because I ordered the 20oz. It was really delicious and creamy. I would definitely come back but maybe go for the 3/4 or 1/2 moon to scale back on the sweetness. If you are in Austin and in need of a pick me up, this is the place to go! read more

their iced matcha is so good! Nice people and the atmosphere is very pleasant! i definitely recommend if you're here to speak some good tea (drama lol). read more

I've come here multiple of times now, and this is hands down one of my favorite coffee shops in Austin! [Service] Baristas are always nice and friendly whenever I visit here. My order usually comes out quickly. Nothing to complain about. [Ambience] Casual atmosphere. This place is always packed, but the noise level is relatively low. Usually people come here to study, but I personally come here only to meet up with friends or when I go on a quick coffee date with my boyfriend. The lights are very dim, and I find the seats pretty uncomfortable for me to study. I freaking love the brick wall that says "Summer Moon." I don't know why but I'm obsessed with pretty brick walls, and this did not disappoint me at all. [Coffee] I usually get the Half Moon Latte, but I sometimes I get the Half Wintermoon when it's a hot, sunny day. I tried the Summer Moon Latte, but that drink was way too sweet for me. I would say Summer Moon is the best coffee shop in Austin - or at least in North Austin. Worth checking it out! read more

Summer Moon Coffee - Half Wintermoon - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Austin, Texas

The lattes here are a hit. Their famous summer moon latte (hot) / winter moon (iced) drinks are deliciously sweet and smooth. The consistency is thicker than the normal lattes. I would recommend if you prefer your lattes on the sweeter side. Best way to wake up in the morning. Drink up! read more

Summer Moon Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Austin, Texas

I am not a coffee person to say the least. But the Cinnamoon with a extra shot of espresso is my go to wake up call. Delicious. One of my favorite candies growing up is Werthers and this particular selection is the closest to that taste I've ever had in a coffee. A+. read more

I've ordered the same latte for the last couple years and I've had no issues. They will allow you to use your own cup by the way. Staff is friendly and the lunch rush isn't a serious issue. Order ahead online or via the app if you can. read more

Great place to grab coffee. The iced americano is one of my favorites. I'm not a huge sweet coffee drinker but the moon milk is good. Tastes like melted ice cream. You can also buy moon milk by a bottle which is a great addition to take home! read more

I was a customer from the very 1st day they opened, and WAS a fan. I saw WAS, because the customer service had gone downhill in a big way. Admittedly, I've don't frequent this location very often because of Covid, there are 8 places in a 1 mile radius to get specialty coffee. What used to be top of my list, is now bottom. Here's my story: I ordered a half decaf moonraker shaken. I understand that there are online orders, so it took longer than expected, but I excuse it for the online order. So after witnessing the person that was in front of me, get his order, I was bummed when 3 online orders were made before mine, but hey, it's probably in a queue right. Again, I can excuse the online order thing. What I can't excuse is watching the 3 people that were behind me in line, get their drink, with a sprinkle of online orders fulfillment in between. When I finally asked where my order was, she pointed to a drink that was on the bar. I remember this drink as one she tried to give to the person that was behind me in line, with her drink. She said she only had one. She didn't look at the name on my drink (didn't even call it out), she didn't even call out what kind of drink it was. Here's the rub, it wasn't shaken. I asked for shaken because I didn't want it watered down, like most people who probably asked for shaken. It was full of ice. So here we have a drink being watered down by ice for a good 8-10 mins, and when I told her it says shaken on it cup, she just filtered the ice out, and put it back. So now I have a watered down drink, and I don't have time for them to put me on hold for online drinks, for mine to be remade. Got to drinking it... FULL Caf. Yes I have a caffeine sensitivity, and I know the difference (I've had this drink made properly before). So that's my story. A business that was once a hallmark of quality, is now surviving on popularity instead. I'm done, But hey it works for Starbucks right, though I find the Starbucks in the are to have better customer service. read more
