Definitely adding this to my 🏆 Top.Coffee places rank in Austin. Brew & Brew is a true hipster spot, not just because of the carefully curated aesthetic but because the people who come here actually create the atmosphere. It’s an effortlessly cool, craft-focused café that feels genuinely local.
The coffee is excellent—well-balanced, smooth, and clearly made with attention to detail. The menu extends beyond coffee, offering breakfast, brunch, and lunch options. We ordered the bagel with lox, which was fresh, well-assembled, and full of flavor. A simple dish, but done right.
The location is interesting—it’s near downtown but not quite downtown, giving it a slightly tucked-away, neighborhood feel. The space is well-designed, with indoor seating, a bar counter, and outdoor tables for those who want to enjoy the fresh air.
One of the standout features of Brew & Brew is that it transitions seamlessly from a coffee shop to a bar. After lunch, you can grab a beer, wine, or cocktail, making it a great all-day spot, whether you need a morning pick-me-up or an evening wind-down.
The staff is friendly, and the service is smooth, even when the place is busy. If you appreciate well-made coffee, a laid-back but lively vibe, and a place where you can seamlessly move from work mode to social mode, Brew & Brew is one of the best choices in the area.
