While waiting in a pizza queue, I asked a woman standing in line with her daughter if she could save my place in line. They gladly did so. I went over to Bureau de Poste and much to my surprise, has been combined with Tiny Grocer and now calledy Tiny Grocer Café . It is a neighborhood French bistro with all day offerings such as breakfast and deli items along with sandwiches. Tiny Grocer café is boutique grocery store and café, which is open seven days a week for daily brunch and dinner. Guests can enjoy both indoor and outdoor seating. Personally, I like to view the unique items they carry such as crackers, gadget and a host of other things. In addition, they a good selection of wines. Some watchouts: 1) The aisles are small, so try to pick a non-high demand timeframe 2) While Tiny Grocer café sell specialized and sometimes hard to find items, it can be on the pricier side. read more

Tiny Grocer / Hyde Park - Cookie chocolate chip sea salt - Grocery Near Me - Austin, Texas

Tiny Grocer in Hyde Park is an absolute wonderland for my fellow product nerds who get genuinely excited about hyper-local hot sauces, and boutique non-alcoholic mixers. I like getting items for my pantry from their hand-selected treasures. I like it even more now that they have merged Bureau de Poste into the full-service Tiny Grocer Café concept. Being able to pivot from grabbing artisan pasta off the shelf to sitting down for an all-day brunch is dangerous for my wallet in the best way possible. It's the ultimate neighborhood vibe, housed inside a beautifully recycled old mid-century post office that manages to feel like a portal to a chic European market. read more

Got a latte with honey and the espresso shot tasted burnt and the drink was sooo sweet. I couldn't drink it so I threw it away and went down the street to terrible love to get a better drink read more

This is nice store with a good curation of artisanal goods. The selection is fairly nice although very expensive at some items. Some prices were a tad questionable as they are way higher than any other retail prices such as for Cholula, Yellow Bird brand sauces, and fridge drinks. The person at the check out was nice and chatty, which was great! The store itself wasn't too busy, but it is for sure small and aisles are a little small. They have a deli and a coffee counter, as well as a nicely looking outside patio. I might come back during a colder season to enjoy the outdoors. read more

I started going to the Bureau de Poste shortly after it opened. In its early days it was a good restaurant. Good food and good service. As time went by it became less good. The food was kind of like coming from US Foods as time went on. Then they did away with the restaurant concept, ending table service, but not changing the menu or the prices. Now, no service. Order at the counter and sit and get food delivered. No one asks if you would like water or anything else. I had the Salad Lyonnaise tonight and it was inedible. Large plate with one poached egg, but the sauce was like drinking out of a vinegar and lemon juice bottle. I had one appetizer and left the salad. Too bad it was really good and fun to go to in its early days. read more

I was surprised at how fast the service is and how good the espresso is! I got an iced mocha and it was one of the best I've had. Kael also made the mocha so fast; by the time I'd finished ordering he was done already. Absolutely loved the latte and highly recommend stopping by! read more

Tiny Deli makes a GREAT sandwich! I had a Hot Italian on gluten-free bread; it was delicious! My only complaint is that it was a bit pricey $22, for one sandwich. They also have great coffee and a cool place to dine/study. The market has beer and wine, and a great selection of charcuterie meats and cheeses, as well as cool spice blends. read more

Neat little store with items you wont commonly find unless you are in smaller stores like this. Some things are a bit over priced but they do have salty licorice, which is pretty hard to find in this city. read more

I decided to come here out of curiosity after reading through the almost 20 reviews. I decided not to eat at the deli because several yelpers complained of the food being not as fresh as it should be thus creating an inconsistent experience. On my visit, I thought I would add more photos and plug in some additional information. When you arrive, parking can be an issue since there's only two dozen spots out front and this place is popular. The good news is that there is another parking lot directly across the street with much more parking or park next to the bookshop (there's a bus stop here too). Inside the store, you'll find many upscale offerings in the form of wine, chocolates, olive oil's, sauces, drinks, cheeses and frozen items to name a few. Others had mentioned that the prices here are kind of high, but they are not outrageously so. They're pretty much in line with what you would pay at Central Market just down the street. They do have some indoor seating, but most of it is semi covered outside, which consists of about two dozen tables. On my visit, I found everything to be very well merchandised with plenty of fresh items in the deli case. Having a very popular bookshop and pizza spot directly next-door certainly adds to the overall attraction. Definitely a great gathering spot for the local Hyde Park residents. Informative photos and videos to round this out. read more

Tiny Grocer / Hyde Park - Grocery - Grocery Near Me - Austin, Texas

This was the local post office for a lot of people in college so it's fun to see it recycled/converted to something new. They have tons of gifts, wines, and odd food items, including Iberian ham flavored potato chips and baby toys. The deli is counter service and there are about five tables inside and a rib outside in a covered area. The prices are big city prices, but I enjoyed my $6 spinach empanada and also the soup and salad combos. There is plenty of parking and a cute little bookstore next door. I took my friend here for her 94th birthday and we had a great time. Hyde Park spots don't seem to have a lot of turnover so it's nice to see something new. Tiny Grocer has two locations, and the Hyde Park location turns into a fine dining French restaurant at night. Think Moules and Steak Frites. read more

so many cool treats! love that they carry such a wide range of local coffee. also, one of the few places i can buy Italian goods. there's always someone around to help you find what you need and even some stuff you don't such a cute little grocer. read more

I've frequently stopped by Tiny Grocer to pick up specialty grocery items and have always appreciated the curated aisles--especially when I can't make it down to Central Market. Unfortunately, the deli counter should be avoided at all costs. I've tried sandwiches at both The South and Hyde Park locations, and they've been consistently disappointing and inedible . The baguette in the jamón and butter sandwich was stale, and the French dip was bland, greasy, and underseasoned. I also picked up a bean salad that when opened smelled rancid and tasted off--definitely not something I'd expect from a place with premium pricing. I'd only recommend visiting if you're looking for a gift and already happen to be in the area. Skip the deli. read more

This place is really cute. Everything is really expensive though it is convenient if you live in the area. They have a cute Cafe and they're like getting the empress Rose tea from there. The staff is always friendly and service is usually quick unless they're backed up but they work speedily. read more

They have deli counter service during the weekday lunch. The French dip with au jus was yummy with a very deep and rich dipping sauce. It's counter service so you will have to pick up your dish to the side of the counter. Drinks have to be ordered separately at the cafe bar. Get their frozen rose if it's a nice day. As always I like the selection of curated items in the grocery section. Point off because the point of sale system has gratuity on by default ... I can understand this for the deli and the cafe but not the grocery store. It is just annoying that they ask for tip for groceries especially since it's an upmarket place. It is configurable so I'm up in arms why most stores don't configure the gratuity option out or set them to reasonable amounts like 5% or less for minimal services. read more

Our favorite local grocery store. Great selection of things that are hard to find elsewhere. I particularly like their well curated wine selection. read more

I used to live in North Campus and this would be a go-to study spot for me!!! Unfortunately, my matcha was really not great this time around - tasted watered down and there were clumps of matcha powder. But really love the vibe here so I'm at a crossroads.

Very cute place to work from home or study or grab lunch or brunch. The groceries themselves are a little pricey, but well curated so it's worth it. They have a wonderful selection of wine as well! Can't wait to live walking distance from her in a few weeks!! I'll for sure be a regular read more

Tiny Grocer / Hyde Park - Matcha on the patio, plenty of work from home spots - Grocery Near Me - Austin, Texas

Abby's cappuccino's are absolutely the best in Austin! She serves with grace, kindness, and is a pleasure to chat with at the coffee bar while I'm working on my business, crafts, and waiting to meet a friend for breakfast or lunch. Her presence at the Tiny Grocer along with the older gentleman (forgive me, I forgot his name, I believe he is the manager), create a welcoming neighborhood vibe that is quintessential to Hyde Park. As a resident of Hyde Park for over 6 years, I can truly say that Tiny Grocer and its service staff is a beautiful addition to the neighborhood. Groceries are a bit pricey, but if you are in a rush and need bread, eggs, or feminine products in a pinch, its a delight that they are around the corner. Not enough has been said about the service in Austin Texas, specifically people in the service industry who help create the vibe at establishments throughout the city. Attentive, kind, and communicative staff is the bedrock of excellent service and guest returning to experience not just the food and atmosphere, but also the hardworking individuals that can make you smile. read more

I would avoid the prepared foods counter at all costs; I have truly can not even believe how poor the quality of the food was. We ordered two sandwiches, both bread was literally stale, the meat was unseasoned and greasy. It also tasted strongly like the meat had gone off. We also ordered the bean salad, and when we opened the container it was absolutely ripe. It smelled so bad, that we each tried a bite and decided to throw it away along with the sandwiches. The best thing and only edible thing we had was a bag of chips.... read more

Always surprised by the poor service considering the price point. Food quality is low as well

Ordered the Cobb Salad but it did not come with the boiled egg or avocado! Just a regular tossed salad.

$6 for a tiny empanada!?!? I guess that is why the name tiny grocer, but be sure to bring mucho dinero. I like what they did with the old post office, but this store is for the local Hyde park residents who have money to burn. Nice interior but their AC was on the fritz only a year after opening. I asked if they had half and half. They said yes, but when I checked they had every alternate dairy version but no real half and half. The empanadas were horrible. I've had better from a High School cafeteria. The beef did not taste like beef. Tasted funny. Was probably the vegan beef. If so, say that. Took two bites and tossed it to the dogs. They sniffed it and didn't want to have any part of it. There were so many vegan products in there it smelled like a beverly hills spa. No reason for me to go back here, considering all the alternatives in the area, that have equivalent or better products at much lower price. read more

So cute!!!! What a fun addition to the neighborhood and great use of the old post office. This space shares a building (other side) with First Light, and the deli/kitchen inside turns into Bureau d'Poste at night. I came in the morning and it was a perfect place to work. Lots of fun pastries and breakfast options, or you could grab n go something from the bodega section. The espresso service was fabulous, and I really enjoyed working from there. Can't wait to go back and peruse the aisles next time. read more

Absolutely terrible customer service from 2 employees. All brands of freeze dried mushrooms were marked $12.99 and at the register they rang up at $21.99 so I questioned them. Their response by 2 clerks was the sign was wrong, not just on this one product but all mushrooms, and if it rang at $21.99 that was the price if I wanted to purchase them (2-packages). What store does not have a manual pricing option and does not honor obvious errors in programming, not the sign. Needless to say, I did not purchase and the clerks could have cared less. read more

Such a cute place with so many specialized food items. They have a variety of N.A. spirts and drinks, a deli with picnic varieties, bath and beauty products I've been interested it, and even my favorite canned tomatoes!!! I'm definitely going to go to this place to grab items for a gift basket and/or a picnic. They have so many neat items. I'm worried for my bank account! read more

Had an amazing sandwich (which was small) but will likely never go back because $18 for a pastrami sandwich with no sides is just wrong.
