    Seating area

    I stopped by the "newsstand" coffee shop for an afternoon pick me up, after having brunch next door.. it was my first time here. I had heard about it and couldn't pin point its actual location (visually). I had driven past many times and never noticed it until today! So glad I finally tried it because the iced coffee I got for my friend and me was perfection!! I ordered us the pillow talk, which is a burnt honey, horchata latte with coconut notes! Ohhhmmmmgggg one of the most delicious lattes I've ever had! My husband mentioned to me later that day that he heard their food is delicious as well, so I will most definitely be back to try a different drink and something to eat! Service was great and ambiance was casual/welcoming. Very cozy and pretty aesthetic with a little shop in the back area! Highly recommend!

    Rosemary ham bagel sandwich

    I had seen this place on TikTok before and always had it on a list of places to try and WHAM, I just so happened to be in the area. Thankfully, I came during the week and it was super slow here, so it was the perfect storm. Parking for me was easy, but I can see how it can be a pain. The interior was very open feeling, high vaulted ceilings and bright with big windows, a decent amount of seats. The service was great, felt welcomed the second i walked in! I ordered a bagel sando and two drinks, specially the cosmo and Wanda! Now THAT was good, I had never had matcha until then, it was super good, actually got me hooked on chasing that matcha flavor now. Everything was super good, it's just a little pricey.

    On JOSEPHINE in the UIW neighborhood, specializing in CAFFEINATED & BREADY things, THE VIBE is young, trendy, cool. Inside fills up quickly on the weekend, but outdoors is free like fresh air (due to the heat?!). SANTIAGO & KHASHIANA are what I wish I was like (when I was their age), but at least they let me hang here. Also noteworthy for tasty & grammable PROUD MARY COFFEE, POPPI & SPECIAL MATCHA drinks (here or to-go). A Premium ("CURIOUS") YELLOW HONEY CAPPUCCINO from Costa Rica (my notes): Roasted cereal & milk chocolate, smooth finish. The kitchen was lacking some menu ingredients and 2 orders later, landed on some AVO TOAST - Toasty, crusty bread with a generous portion of avocado & tomato, topped with high-quality EVOO & sprouts. Simple, fresh, BYO sea salt. Good, could be better, have had best.

    The prices here are pretty steep at $9 for one of their regular size specialty coffees and $16 for their lox bagel sandwiche. Both were delicious, but on the price alone, I feel like I could get similar quality elsewhere. The service here was typical. Nothing special but not bad either. The shop is cute with plants and nice lighting. It's a nice place to come have a conversation with a friend or even a coffee date. Their pastries looked delicious. I haven't decided if I'd come back here or not. I liked what I got, but didn't truly feel like the it justified the cost.

    Bacon egg and cheese sandwich
    Tatiana A.

    I visited San Antonio a few months ago and I'm STILL dreaming of this place! I only had a couple days there and originally I wanted to try multiple cafe's but once I tried Newstand that was it, this is the only place I came to for the rest of the trip. I don't even know where to start, everything was 10/10. At first I seen the price of the Bacon egg and cheese sandwich and I was a little scared but I was hungry so I got it. Completely worth it! That bread is so fresh the whole sandwich was just perfection. My matcha... again I was planning to try different things this trip but the Miss Honey matcha just did it for me. And I loved the honeycomb in there it was a yummy treat. The staff were nice, friendly and honestly I loved their styles haha. I love the whole concept and vibe of this place, the menus are super cute too and I love all the natural light that comes in from the big windows. They even had a thrift room! I'd be a regular here if I lived in San Antonio!!

    Tang Ten Matcha
    Taira H.

    This place is a little hidden but so glad we decided to come here for our girls coffee. I love that they validate parking, what a great way to support people coming to the space. I got the lox bagel, it was amazing! It was such a big portion, my friend and I split it. I also got the tang ten matcha & it was delicious! Tasted like a creamsicle on top and then was less sweet in the best way. I'll be back! I like the vintage thrift option as a cute side quest. I will say that seating was limited, it was full when we got there and we were a group of 3, so the only options for us to sit and talk was the couch or the bar which made it hard to talk. Maybe it's a more study or work environment.

    Recommend: Maybe I really enjoyed checking out The Newstand. The location is great, though parking was a little tricky to figure out. Inside, the space is on the smaller side, but the high ceilings and huge windows make it feel open and spacious. There's also a long bench facing outside, but with current construction going on, outdoor seating isn't really an option right now. The shop is clean, bright, and thoughtfully designed. In the back, there's a small retail area with an assortment of knickknacks, clothing pieces, and books, which adds a nice, unique touch. They offer coffee, matcha, breakfast and lunch options, and even a happy hour. Service was very quick and staff were friendly. I ordered the Tang Ten with Texas tangerine syrup, Kyoto matcha, and vanilla cold foam, and it was--perfectly balanced with just the right amount of sweetness for me. Overall, it's a charming spot with good vibes and solid drink options. I'd definitely recommend checking it out if you're in the area.

    I tried them again, wondering if maybe I was too quick to judge the prices. I was not. I got an iced chai tea for $9 and the tea itself tasted like plastic. They add on so many fees. I wish I could like this place and respect their prices. They are very honest on their instagram "home of the $9 latte". I find it a bit arrogant BUT maybe not my sense of humor and definitely not my coffee/tea preference. Mila coffee and estate coffee are too close by for me to come here again.

    Finally made my first visit to The Newstand after wanting to check it out for awhile, and it definitely lived up to the vibe I was hoping for! I stopped by during the early afternoon after lunch, so it wasn't too busy and ordering was quick and easy. The employees at the register were super friendly, answered my questions, and made the experience welcoming for a first-time visitor. Although I had already eaten beforehand and didn't get to try any of the sandwiches or food items yet, the menu looked delicious and gave me plenty of reasons to come back. I did order an iced vanilla latte with almond milk, and it was so good -- smooth, flavorful, and honestly hard to put down. The decor and ambiance were probably one of my favorite parts. The space has a very chill, cozy atmosphere that makes it a great spot to catch up with a friend or just hang out for awhile without feeling rushed. My drink also came out pretty quickly, which I appreciated. One thing I was initially concerned about was parking, but I ended up finding street parking about a block away pretty easily. I could definitely see parking becoming more difficult during busier times in the area though, so that's probably something to keep in mind depending on when you visit. Looking forward to coming back soon to finally try the food!

    miso lattes and matcha
    Amanda L.

    I was throughly surprised at how much I liked this place. The prices are on the higher side but the quality is pretty solid. I got the french dip sandwich as well which had great flavor. I wish the bread held up a bit better because the bottom was very soggy. I also think it should be on a bigger plate. It's a very very messy meal. I also got the miso latte and the matcha. I wasn't impressed with the matcha but the miso was good even though it didn't have much miso flavor (so a little gimmicky). They also charge for special milk (latte is already 8-9 bucks) which is kind of insane pricing wise because they don't list the price on the menu for alterations. They don't offer the coffee hot so if you want it hot maybe ask. Service is very nice, they do get VERY busy. We were lucky to get some seats next to outlets because there's not a lot of seats that have outlets and the seats are not comfortable.

    Brownie
    Tina M.

    I had never heard of The Newstand until a friend of mine suggested we eat there for brunch. When I first looked at the menu, I was a bit taken aback by the high prices. This menu read like an Austin menu! The place looked cute but it's still San Antonio, I thought... Still, I decided to bite the bullet and ordered a breakfast toast. I didn't know what to expect, but it wasn't what I was served... I got a plate with TWO toasts (what!) and they were generously topped with fruit and caramel on gluten free bread. I'm not celiac but I can still appreciate that the bread was pretty good, especially for being gluten free. The portion was so generous that I couldn't eat it all. I also ordered a brownie and it turned out to be MASSIVE. Also delicious. The coffee was good. So what can I say other than it was worth it!

    Delicious Protein Bowl
    Katie N.

    I finally go to try this place! It's street parking, so you have to get lucky or park a street or two over, which is no big deal. There is also a parking garage on the backside where the first 30 min are free. The building has the tallest ceilings and a ton of natural light. It was crowded and the doors were constantly moving with all the business they got. I had a black cold brew, which was fantastic! I ordered a sticky bun, which was large and gooey and warm- seriously it was the best sticky bun I have ever had! I should've bought more! I had the Delicious Protein bowl, which was delicious with the right amount of flavor and spice! I was very happy with it and would eat it again. Don't wait like I did to try this place! Serious coffee, and serious food. The sandwiches I saw people order looked phenomenal!

    Andrea B.

    Great drinks and food! The bagel with salmon and morning yogurt were both delicious -- fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Their drinks are fun and creative, and you can tell they put real thought into the menu. The inside is pretty small with limited seating, so you might have to wait a bit for a table, but it's totally worth it. Bonus points for validated parking in the attached garage -- super convenient, especially for this area. Such a cute spot for coffee or brunch. Been here a couple of times, and will definitely be back for more!

    For a nine dollar iced latte I would assume it would taste better than burnt gas station coffee with three ice cubes that melt immediately.

    I passed this on the way to my assignment location and began researching this spot. Some google…read morereviews mentioned they are F1 fans and Ferrari people. So I knew I had to check them out. I was able to make my way here on my last day in San Antonio in late March thanks to my flight being delayed and my oh my, I am quite impressed! The older gentleman taking my order at the counter gave me a big smile when I mentioned I heard you have this thing called the serious sandwich here. He told me that they do and then stated "You won't regret ordering it, seriously." Chuckling, I decided on a half order of that along with a side of potato salad and their side of beans. After taking my first bite, I realized the gentleman was right. This is a dope sandwich! Excellent cured meats in the salamar and pair of hams along with the provolone and melted cheddar with the veggies, spices, italian dressing, and mustard. The bread they use holds up well and has a slight crunch to it. If you prefer your bread to have softness to it, you may have to ask if they can substitute a different bread instead of the italian flat bread they use. But I absolutely love this sandwich the way it is! As for the sides, the potato salad has a slight mustard taste and right consistency with a dash of paprika on top; just the way I like it. The beans are charro beans (I think) that are served steaming hot with some pork trimmings mixed in; I may have dipped my sandwich in it a couple times for flavor explosion. What can I say, I'm adventurous! There's some ferrari memorabilia and posters on the right side where some of the high top seating is. As a Ferrari F1 fan, I appreciate them displaying this here along with the track map of the COTA circuit in Austin. The seating area is spread out nicely with plenty of seats/tables and a drink station with some random signs up. All of interest to consumers like us. Definitely recommend coming here for either the serious sandwich or other delicious ones like their meatball sandwich or manhattan. I can't wait to come back and try the other ones but I may just stick with the serious sandwich cause I loved it. SERIOUSLY!

It's definitely the deli bahn mi that keeps me coming back regularly as well as the staff--they really are artists of their craft. If you know exactly what you want they'll give you that and if you're undecided or new, they have great recommendations that really do provide a well balanced bite. Every time for me, even when I'm not grabbing a deli bahn mi or ordering for others, has been a perfect sandwich. They have online ordering, phone in ordering, and you can also order there in person. The line gets long during the rush so if you're limited on time, I advise ordering ahead. Thundercloud from what I understand is originally an Austin chain. They serve soup peddler soups (also an Austin staple) and even offer cookies and smoothies which I also enjoy. About a week ago I got my girlfriend a cookie from Paris baguette and she later commented that she STILL preferred thunder clouds chocolate chip cookie over the bakeries (says a lot for a sandwich shop cookie to trump a bakery tbh). You can choose from white or wheat bread & I really enjoy how they offer two sizes of a sandwich along with plenty of options for meat and veggies. It keeps the possibilities endless. Like I mentioned earlier my go to is a large deli bahn mi on white bread with sriracha mayo add salami and salt and pepper. (I've found that the manager's special, the deli bahn mi is not available at all locations, so I'm thankful to always find it at this one). My girlfriend usually grabs the Austin club on white bread with honey mustard and sprouts and both keep us coming back ultra satisfied and ready for another round. I've also enjoyed their frito pie, Big Paul, and their meatball sub. The drink and chip selection is also fire, I especially enjoy their canned organic lemonade.
