Bring your best camera, pay attention to parking signs (they ticket), wear tennis shoes, beware the poison ivy, and be prepared to be wowed by micro and macro masterpieces.
For late-night work, nothing beats Bennu. Open 24 hours, it has plenty of room, comfortable seating, tasty food and coffee, and outlets that literally hang from the ceilings. - Josh Catone
The Castle Hill art wall, an abandoned condo construction site, is a great place to show off to family and friends while they're in town. Enjoy the spectacular view of Austin from the highest level!
A perfect running trail for all levels of runners. This 10 mile loop is mostly flat with scenic views of downtown Austin and Lady Bird Lake.
Story goes that when the owner of Jo's Coffee was having a bad day, her girlfriend stealth-tagged the storefront's south wall to put a smile on her face. Admit it: Now you're smiling, too.
Take a break from shopping the posh stores on busy 2nd Street and stop by for a tasty sandwich or the infamously addictive iced coffee. Leer más.
Dare I say my favorite? The cafe is charming. I love to sit outside both winter and summertime (they have heaters when it's cold). Nutella gelato! Sorberitas! Best hummus plate! Dates + Studying.
The quaint atmosphere and delicious coffee will make Summermoon your new favorite spot. With a menu full of yummy drinks and snacks, you can't go wrong with the Summermoon (hot) or Wintermoon (cold).
This is a restaurant that knows how to do vegetarian food right. The tofu here totally rocks. You won't be disappointed.
Bouldin is a South Austin staple for breakfast and coffee. Their menu is vegetarian and vegan with menu items like "Wanna-BLT" which is made with tofu 'bacon'. Breakfast taco's start at $1.75. Leer más.
Intimate space and very limited off street parking. DO NOT park in the laundry business spaces! You'll be sorry...
My favorite cafe downtown. Ample plugs, choices between comfort or work-style seating, open floor plan and giant windows if you're in the mood to people watch. Get a Cortado (it's not on the menu)!
We make a yearly pilgrimage to this quirky Austin institution for a Ninja Bachelor Party (pineapple, jalapeno, celery, kale, spinach, parsley, salt).
Staged with Southern Living nostalgia, Josephine House is the type of place where you can easily dither away the afternoon sipping iced teas and grazing on cool melon salads. Pricey, but worth it. Leer más.
Beautiful on Lake Austin. Tons of outdoor seating and plethora of desserts! Bottomless coffee is offered but it gets cold pretty quickly. The desserts and ambience are the thing here, not the coffee.
