But first… T A C O S: 🌮
Vera Cruz (any of the locations) is literally the best. I dream about these tacos, specifically the Migas.
Tip: If you want to make a morning of it + enjoy coffee, I recommend either going to the Vera Cruz next to Fleet coffee (excellent cup of joe) or you could go to the Vera Cuz in Mueller next to Compass Coffee. I suggest going on Sunday to this one because it’s near the Mueller farmers market.
Taco Deli is another favorite local spot. If you are in the mood for some spice, I suggest the green sauce (Doña). Just be prepared for your mouth to experience a sudden burst of flavor.
El Chilito boasts an incredible agua de Sandia (watermelon).
Local tip: The happy hour includes $2 off chips and guac and $2 sangrías.
Paco's tacos has a plethora of salsa options and is locally owned.
Torchy's is a must.
C O F F E E: ☕️
Houndstooth Coffee (any of the locations) never fails to disappoint. If you enjoy a cappuccino or cortado, you're in for a treat.
Juan Pelota Cafe is a local Austin spot founded by Lance Armstrong. I recommend grabbing a cup of a joe and walking around Town Lake.
Tip: While I'm not usually in the mood for sweet things, Juan Pelota does make an amazing mocha! ;)
Flat Track Coffee is just an overall good vibe with quality coffee. I recommend the cappuccino or cold brew.
Thunderbird Coffee is one of my personal favorites. The people, tacos, and coffee are all good here.
Fleet Coffee may be small, but it packs a punch. If you enjoy unique coffee offerings, this is the place for you.
Dear Diary Coffeehouse is perfect for people who enjoy alternative milk and vegan sweets! Did someone say vegan pop tarts?! 👀
Hank's Austin has THE BEST mint cold brew I've ever tried. This is also a great Happy Hour spot.
Easy Tiger is an excellent place to transition from day to night. Solid coffee, good eats, and plenty of adult beverage options.
