To bring SXSW to an end, this last Austin coffee post for a while ends with the crucial Cuveé Coffee located on the East side of the city. Cuveé is most well-known nationally for their Black and Blue Cold Brew which is typically canned or on tap. Within the coffee community, their shop is known…

Mañana Coffee, Juice & Bakeshop – Austin, TX
Nestled behind one of the most touristic areas of Austin, Mañana serves up locally roasted Cuvee coffee and has one of the most beautiful bars in the city. Mañana is my brief escape whenever I am surrounded by the weekend hecticness of Soco (South Congress for those who have never been to Austin). While this…

Houndstooth Coffee – Austin, TX
Houndstooth Coffee was one of the most welcoming coffee shops I have been to in a while. The second I walked into the door, smiling baristas welcomed me to the shop. The first thing that caught my eye was the beautiful personalized La Marzocco espresos machine with “Houndstooth” engraved on the front. In addition, the…
Cold Brew Review- Chameleon Cold Brew
This morning I tried Chameleon Cold Brew, a Fair Trade organic cold brew company based in Austin, Texas. Chameleon has a variety of flavored cold brew coffees as well as the original black cold brew.
