★★★★☆ 4.0 Gleb Dy · Dec 2025

The food was good, the service was alright. Employees need to tell customers if something has upcharge. We got their special coffee like “sugar cookie chai latte”, and while the drink is let’s say $5.5, the foam and cookie crumbs were extra ~$1 each, making it ~$7.5 total, which we were not aware of that and employees didn’t say anything.

This is a short 5 min walk from my office on the Capitol grounds. Great, friendly service from the staff, and a delicious chai latte & green tea for my friend. The atmosphere is quiet and chill and they have lovely shaded outdoor seating as well. 20% off on Friday for State employees was a nice surprise as well!

Cute place that is close to the capital. Has outside seating as well. Coffee was pretty good

★★★★★ 5.0 Cindy Alvarez · Oct 2024

Just a short walk from Capitol and Texas State Archives. The ham on blueberry bagel was delish. I had a huge spice coffee. This is a good place to relax and look out the windows. I purchased a coffee mug and then left it in Uber!:( Hope you enjoy the mug Jacob. I am so glad I didn't leave my Texas Military Forces Museum cup in Uber or I would have sobbed loudly. Only thing I don't like about cafe is that it is cashless. Employee said CAFE has been robbed more than once and now take credit only. Hire a security guard who looks like Tyrus from Gutfeld. I don't like using credit for coffee/food or mugs. Run your business to please the customer not hooligans or thieves. THIS IS TEXAS. DEFEND YOUR GROUND!
