    Champurrado iced coffee and the stuffed concha
    Betsy G.

    It's always amazingly delicious, they have an awesome array of options from coffee to baked goods. They have the best banana pudding, cheesecakes, and omg the best tres leches. We ordered a stuffed concha and holy moly. It has the best texture, sweetness and tartness. The service is always great and the place is cute to catch up with friends. Def check it out

    Corn cup
    Christian M.

    The advertised corn cup on their billboard is about 2/3rd smaller. Six dollars for a cups worth of corn is robbery. They don't tell you at purchase or on the sign that it's smaller. Lattes are eight dollars for a large. That's insane. They also sell AI generated things here from third party sellers. Two stars because it has a nice AC system.

    After a busy day of sightseeing in San Marcos, my visiting friend was in desire of some tea, not coffee, but tea. So I opened up Yelp and just a few stores down we found The Sweet Spot. After speaking with the owner, my friend decided on the Mexican Hot Chocolate, so I said ditto. The Sweet Spot NBTX is originally a food truck from New Braunfels, TX. After looking around NB for a store front, they just happened to find this location in SM that was a previous coffee shop that closed in Oct, and The Sweet Spot took over almost immediately, just a month ago. Wishing the family-owned business the best of luck. Support local.

    What a cute little gem in San Marcos across the street from the Root Cellar. They serve special drinks, breakfast items, and unique desserts. There is seating, but a little limited.

    Mini pancakes with Nutella & coconut flakes, corn in a cup with hot Cheetos dust

    First of all this place is so cute! The decor is everything, and the staff was so friendly! The mini pancakes were so good and fresh! We loved them but my favorite was the elote! It's hands down the best cup I've had in San Marcos! They don't just use one cheese they use multiple! It was perfect. I highly recommend trying!

    Office outing 2024

    We had our office outing at the Sweet Spot taking their decorating class and I'm so glad we did, we all had such a great time. The staff was super friendly and helpful and Kat did a great job instructing us what to do. We will definitely be back. I highly recommend you bring some friends thank you to the Sweet Spot for hosting us.

    Kerbey Lane Cafe is an Austin favorite and it's where we went for our Mother's Day Brunch…read more This location is in the middle of downtown San Marco on the river. We called early in the morning and made reservations for 11:00am and we were seated right away. The servers are friendly and very patient. It's breakfast or lunch your choice. They have a nice menu of beverages and today's choice was cinnamon swirl latte. For breakfast I ordered Harvest (V, GF) breakfast with a blueberry pancake and fruit on the side. This omelet was filled with avocado and was really good. I have been to other locations and they are consistent. Overall it was enjoyable.

    Let's start with the not-so-great part... the manager completely dropped the ball and got my number…read morewrong, so our "20-25 minute wait" turned into us sitting there way longer than expected. Definitely not the best first impression. HOWEVER... once they realized the mistake, we were seated immediately, so I'll give credit where it's due. Now for the good stuff--the food and the vibes saved this whole experience. The restaurant itself was super cute and honestly a whole aesthetic. It gave this modern 21st-century feel mixed with subtle 70s vibes--very stylish, warm, and just a really fun atmosphere to be in. And the FOOD? Worth it. The Migas plate was absolutely bomb--hands down my favorite dish. My husband's steak and eggs came in strong right behind it, and the French toast was also really good. The pancakes were a little overhyped in my opinion, not bad, just didn't live up to the hype. Even the appetizer and my martini were on point. Which, by the way I ordered my Migas plate with green chili sour cream sauce on the side because other reviews did not look good of the Migas with it mixed in/smothered on top, but after trying it, I ended up LOVING it. Was so good !!! Overall, everything from the vibe to the food delivered...just don't fully trust the wait time you're given 4.5/5 because the kitchen and aesthetic carried, not the front-of-house timing.

    Hip and modern! Very spacious…read more Attentive staff, ready to give you reccs if you need it. The menu is quite experimental, but in a good way. Earl grey scone 10/10. Not too sweet and earl grey aroma was present. My friends got drinks and they enjoyed it.

    Mochas & Javas has been a part of the San Marcos coffee infrastructure for a long time. My…read moresorority used to meet on the Texas State University campus and this coffee shop was one of our "go to" places. Ironically, we were on the campus of Texas State university today for another reason and the car stopped at Mochas & Javas. It is definitely a "go to" spot for students, locals, and visitors. The back story...Kevin Carswell founded Mochas & Javas 2003 and the very first two San Marcos locations were opened together with his brother, Kirby Carswell, and both of their wives...therefore, truly a family-owned business. The restaurant is large with an open atmosphere created by the tall ceilings and windows. This location can easily be a study location, friend meet up, or where good food and great conversation are needed. Without a doubt the coffee is the highlight at Mochas & Javas. The menu offerings include an assortment of espresso drinks, brewed coffee, cold brew, teas, and seasonal specials. Our personal favorites include the salted caramel mocha and pecan pie latte. Mochas & Javas also have complementary food to accompany the javas. The good news is that breakfast is served all day including pancakes, egg plates, breakfast sandwiches, paninis, salads, and baked goods. The Classic breakfast sandwich, our selection, was quite tasty. The servers are friendly and welcoming...super fast. Great "go to" shop...
