    Peach latte
    Melissa D.

    Cute unexpected coffee shop. The service was good and the coffee was good I got the seasonal special of the peach compote latte hot and also the trble latte Iced and decaf. The banana flavour is really good

    A great local spot for coffee! Their menu has many unique options and new flavors to try. The terrible latte was delicious, I asked for less sugar and that was perfect for me. They were very helpful with all my questions. There is only outdoor seating which can be hot in summer, but they have umbrellas and shaded spots.

    I am a confessed coffee addict especially lattes. When I saw the high Yelp rating for Terrible Love coupled with being in the area, I decided to give Terrible Love a whirl. Love their name... Surprisingly, Terrible Love is not a food truck, but in a small building. The coffee shop is apparently a local focal point for that neighborhood. One gentlemen with dogs placed his order and after grabbing his coffee, he said, "see you tomorrow". Another woman in the neighborhood said her dog's favorite walk was to the coffee shop. How do you really gauge a dog's favorite walk? I ordered one of their specialty coffees, i.e. TRRBL love. It was strong with robust flavor. I immediately felt a soft body jolt! I liked it! Terrible Love also offers pastries and tacos. In addition, they have fairly sizeable. My server, Veronica, was super personable and happy! Enjoyed interacting with her. You can immediately tell she loves her job!

    I've been wanting to try this place out for a while and I'm so happy with my experience:) The baristas were so nice and the coffee tasted amazing! It's also a very cute and quiet spot with plenty of parking and outdoor seating. I can't wait to try different items from them.

    My new favorite coffee shop! Tucked away in the enchanting courtyard of a school building-turned office building. The coffee shop window is in the school's old boiler room. The matcha latte is so good, I got mine with grapefruit syrup which was surprisingly a great combo. Service is friendly and fast, we showed up around 9am on a holiday weekend and had our drinks in minutes. Highly recommend walking the property, seeing the garden and enjoying the courtyard. I didn't try to WiFi but I can see it being a nice coworking spot once the weather cools down.

    I would definitely recommend coming here to try their TRRBL latte. It is such a delicious mix of banana and chocolate. The flavors go together so well. The place has tons of parking and a bunch of outdoor seating so perfect for enjoying a sunny day with your caffeine!

    My friend and I love to try different matcha spots as a casual afternoon getaway during work and happened upon this cute little hideaway. Terrible Love is run by a lovely owner with creative drinks. I was originally pulled here to try the matcha and grapefruit syrup. Unfortunately for me, it was not for my palate. However it does indeed taste like grapefruit! Instead, I was allowed to swap out for a different syrup where I asked for a mix of banana and caramel - lovely mix! Additionally, they do not charge for milk upcharge. They also have unsweetened matcha if that's your vibe! While my first drink wasn't for me, I'm curious to try their coffees next time I come to Austin!

    Quite a hidden coffee place. If you follow the signs you may find the group of people sitting down. Even up to here you will still keep looking to find the coffee shop. It's not in the school, people will look at you if you try to open a door. Their special menu select is very small. Like only one special. Other than that their chai was very well made with an amped up spice level. Nice place to grab a drink and take a walk. Plenty of parking in the area.

    It is a cute little coffee window in the middle of a neighborhood. A little hard to find, but not impossible since they have signs around pointing to it. We got a chai latte and a matcha latte. Chai was close to traditional masala chai so it was a bit spicy. Matcha latte was with grapefruit sugar syrup so it was pretty sweet and fruity. It was not crazy busy and we got the drinks quick. There's plenty of parking, and lots of opportunities to walk around.

    I tried this coffee stand while working on site in Austin and I really enjoyed my coffee. This shop only offers a walk up window for ordering and outdoor seating for guests. I got the TRRBL Latte and it was nice and not overly sweet. I would definitely return the next time I'm on site.

    I love hyde park!

    Best Chai in town- it's the spicier, punchier kind, less sweet. Great service, love walking here from my apt in Hyde park.

    Terrible love is a cute coffee shop for a perfect weekend morning coffee. I ordered the TRRBL latte which is similar to a banana bread or banana pudding latte and it was delicious! The banana flavor was mild but just enough for a fun coffee treat. It had whipped cream and vanilla wafers on top and was a perfect Sunday morning treat. It's a walk up coffee shop with outdoor tables, so it's a great place to sit outside and enjoy the sun. The service is super friendly and I would definitely come back!

    Terrible Love is one of those fun little hidden gem, a bit of a non-traditional coffee shop tucked away in what used to be the boiler room of the old Baker School in Hyde Park, now part of the Baker Center. Kind of tricky to find, but worth the hunt if you're in the area. I had the matcha latte and it was pretty darn good. Smooth, balanced, not overly sweet. I grabbed a breakfast taco too. It's more of a taco of convenience (wrapped in foil) than a fresh-off-the-griddle situation, but it hit the spot. Came with excellent salsa. Seating is all outdoors at picnic tables, so you've got to catch it on a nice day and be in the right mood for the very casual dining al fresco experience. The staff was super friendly and approachable, which can be hard to find at some Austin coffee spots these days. If you're into unique, off-the-beaten-path coffee hangs with good drinks and vibes, this is a fun one to check out.

Their fried chicken sandwich was audibly crisp with fresh tomato and lettuce that I made two meals out of.

I ordered the migas, and the amount of onions in the dish was overwhelming--so much so that it felt like I had ordered a plate of onions rather than migas. The masa cakes were definitely the standout item and were absolutely delicious. However, the rest of the dish fell short. The sauce was extremely rich, making it difficult to enjoy or finish the meal. That said, the restaurant itself is adorable, and our waiter was fantastic. The service and atmosphere were both great. While this breakfast wasn't a hit for me, I'll still return and stick with favorites like the fried green tomatoes and taquito salad, which were excellent during my previous visit.

Their burger is easily one of the best I've had in Austin, especially paired with their thin, crispy fries. It's my go-to order almost every time. One thing I love is that they switch up the steak portion of the menu a few times a year, and it never disappoints. Right now they have the steak au poivre, which is incredible, although I'm still craving their steak frites and hoping it makes a comeback. The escargot and French onion soup are also favorites of mine. At this point, June's has become a staple in our house--usually with a couple of Diet Cokes and either the burger or whatever steak they're featuring. A few of my friends swear by the chicken sandwich (fair warning: it can get a little messy!), the half roasted chicken, and the tuna crudo, so you really can't go wrong no matter what you order. On top of the amazing food, the staff is always incredibly kind and welcoming, which keeps us coming back. I definitely recommend making a reservation since it tends to get pretty busy, especially during peak hours.

You have to scan a QR code upon arrival to get in line, thought that was weird that the host didn't just add you to the list- anywho. The wait was about 15 min , we walked out to the patio and discovered lots of neat plants, and the mimosa bar. Patio was covered for the most part with ac units and fans to cool you off. We were sat inside. Our waitress was a older pescatarian lady which was cool since i'm pescatarian too. She provided great suggestions and was very personable. We ordered the prima dora omelet which would have used more filling but it was over all good, the black beans we ordered in the side , we possible the best black beans i've had. We also ordered a veggie benidict off the seasonal menu.

While Magnolia Cafe is a longtime South Congress staple and a beloved Austin spot, my visit didn't quite live up to expectations. I met a group here for a pre-show meal and appreciated being seated promptly upon arrival, even though my entire party had not yet arrived. I ordered the chicken caldo soup, which was not served with avocado. The waitress did not check in with us immediately after the food was served but when I inquired about it I noticed there was an up charge on the bill for avocado. I recommend allowing the substitution of the tortilla chips with avocado in the future for a healthier alternative. However chicken caldo traditionally cones with avocado. I also tried the Mag nachos, with tortilla chips topped with black beans, cheddar/jack cheese, jalapeño, tomato, green onion, avocado and sour cream. These were very tasty and unlike the caldo, was served with avocado. The food took a while to come out and the service felt slower than expected. Magnolia has a great reputation, so I was hoping for a better experience. Unfortunately, this visit fell short of expectations.

It's a small space, with only around eight tables and a tiny kitchen behind the counter. It's a bit hard to locate from outside. There's no big sign on the window indicating the restaurant's name, just a plastic A-frame sign outside the building's doors. When I got there, four of the eight tables were empty but the dirty dishes had not yet been cleared. It took close to 10 minutes for the tables to be bused. Because the kitchen is so small, I'd recommend going up to the counter to order as soon as you get there. I believe you can also place your order online using the QR code on the table, but I didn't try that method. I ordered the lox n found, a toasted croissant roll with smoked salmon, avocado, dill ricotta, arugula, onion, and capers.
