Southhaus Coffee (Austin)

This is one of those times that I'm glad I live in New Braunfels. I'm in Austin today and decided to try Southhaus Coffee. It's a hip little coffee shop like you would expect from the Austin area. It's also very crowded like you would expect from the Austin area. I tried their signature Latte, dark chocolate orange. It's pretty good honestly. But I got a tiny cup for $6. 

There is a nice little sitting area outside. I was able to find a seat, but it's a little cold today. I would have liked to sit inside, but again, crowded. 

There is a nice bagel place right next to it. I got a delicious everything bagel there. 


If I'm back in the area, I'll probably come back, but IMO there are so many better options in New Braunfels. 

Coffee: I've only had one latte here, but it's very good. Too expensive for what you get though. 

Food: They have some pastries and breakfast tacos. There is a bagel place next door.   

Privacy: Not private. It's very busy.   

Public Restroom: I believe there is a public restroom here. The bagel place does have a restroom.  

Available seating: It's a busy place. It was hard to find a seat inside. There is a nice outdoor seating area.  

Outlets: I wasn't able to find any outlets outside. I'm guessing there are some inside, but I didn't see any.   

WiFi: Public WiFi is available and works well. 

Noise Level: Fairly noisy. The inside is busy coffee shop noise. Outside is right next to a highway so it's pretty loud.   

I may need to give this place another chance, but I don't think I'd work here regularly.

The Chapter & Co.

Image
 In my never-ending search for new places to work, I stumbled upon this new hidden gem in Downtown NB. It's called the Chapter & Co. On their F acebook page , it looks like it's more of a clothing boutique and bookstore, and it is those things, but it's also a super comfy and cozy coffee shop with some very nice places to sit and do some work while enjoying a cup of coffee.  The shop is right next to the Brauntex Theater in a building that's been renovated but has kept all of its old charm. They have both an upstairs and downstairs with lots of places to sit. I found a nice little table upstairs with a view of the street.  You get a nice bonus if you're into fantasy/romance books as they have shelves full of books you can buy. There's also a full shower. If that sounds weird, well, it is weird. Stop by and see if you can find it.  I'm definitely going to add this to my regular visit routine.  Coffee: This is my first time here, so I haven't been able...

Tipsy Cow Walnut

Image
Did you know the famous Tipsy Cow ice cream shop has a 2nd location on Walnut? They're open early (7am) and they serve coffee! It's in a new store at a great location on the east side where a few good coffee shops are sorely needed IMO. When I went, on a Monday morning, the shop was empty which is really a tragedy. I'm really hoping they do well.  Coffee: They are a bit limited on the classic coffee items. They do an Americano and that's about it for the non-sweet options. However, they have all the stuff I like, Mocha, Carmel Macchiato, and several specialty lattes with a rock and roll theme. I got the Blondie and it was honestly delicious. I'm really looking forward to trying more of their specialty drinks.  Food: No food items, but they have all the ice cream you could ever want.  Privacy: They have a corner spot that's perfect for one person to do some work. It's very private. If you need to work on something where people won't be able to look at you...

Kinnor Coffee

  The mysterious Kinnor Coffee just opened up a stand alone shop in New Braunfels and it is beautiful. For those that don't know, Kinnor has a location at 5 Stones Brewery. They were only open on weekends and were a little hard to find. I tried to find it several times and failed before finally discovering it (it's a great place to work outside when the weather is nice). But now, we can enjoy this excellent coffee in this awesome coffee shop during the week, AND it's in a great location, Castell Ave just down the street from Krause's (going away from downtown).  Coffee: They have some of the best coffee in New Braunfels. If you like coffee, they have something you'll love here. For an iced latte lover like me, the have an excellent list of specialty lattes. I got the butterscotch iced latte and it was great. It came in a "for here" glass which was so charming. The downside is that the coffee is a bit expensive for the amount you get. It's fairly compar...
