Dear Austin Coffee Bar

Great place to work out of.Not suitable for large groups as it doesn't have large group of seatings together but plenty of seatings.Coffee is delicious and there are also pastry items. Very clean and quirky modern style of decor in here.There is an outdoor patio in the back for better weather days.Not too crowded on Saturday afternoon when I visited.

Dear Austin is a fav and comes up pretty often in my rotation of cafe-play places that I frequent. Pros: They've got a dedicated parking lot on the left side of the plaza. A small but effective play spot for kids (chalk board, sand box, magnet wall). Shaded outdoor seating.Most of all I actually like their coffee drinks especially their specials. They're tasty, creative and there's usually a whimsical extra as well. For Valentine's special latte you get a mini fortune card.

My 5-year-old and I have been wanting to check out Dear Austin coffee shop for a while now because I've been seeing all their cute posts on Instagram. We finally made it in, and it is so charming - we loved it!Here's what I loved:Ambiance: The ambiance is perfect - the inside has a retro Austin vibe and is cute and cozy. There's a outdoor area that's fantastic for kids. My little one had a blast in the sandbox - it kept her entertained while we were there. The staff were great - incredibly nice and friendly, which is sometimes hard to find these days.Coffee: The coffee here is amazing! My favorite is the Macchiato - it's absolutely delicious. And if you have a sweet tooth, you have to try their Cookie Latte. My husband got it and loved it.Extra perks: Their patio. Probably one of the largest patios for a coffee shop that I have seen in Austin. Great to work out there or visit during one of the special events or happy hours.Overall, Dear Austin is a great coffee shop for all. I highly recommend it!

Cute and quiet space to work while drinking coffee. Stopped in around 10:30am on Friday. Standard selection of coffee, tea and pastries plus someseasonal (like pumpkin cream latte). I would give 5 stars but don't love their policy for a half-caf Americano (they will only do if you pay double but they give you half the shots ‍).

I love the concept! So cool to read all the great things that have happened to people in the city. Has a cozy feel and outdoor seating area. I only ordered a cookie latte with oat milk and it was good. Service was also fast & friendly! Parking was easy.

I live in northwest Austin but was in the sunset valley area for an event. Needed to get some school work done and found this cute little coffee shop. We went in on a Saturday evening. Parking was slightly difficult to figure out at first but we eventually got it.The place was completely empty when we went in. The girl behind the counter was super nice, just a little soft spoken, had to ask her to repeat herself a few times. I got an earl grey tea and my husband got one of their seasonal pumpkin drinks. I appreciate that they had regular cane sugar as well as honey for the tea. It's rare to find a place that serves honey. The girl also offered me a little platter for my tea bag which was so nice of her.We stayed there until 8:30 to get some schoolwork done on my laptop, almost closing time. We only saw one other group of 2 enter to get drinks. So it was primarily just us that entire evening! Bathrooms are trans friendly, which I love. The whole place just has a very relaxed friendly cute austin vibe to it.

I came here for an F1 trivia event and loved the coffee they had! I got a cookie latte that they made Max Verstappen themed, and it had the perfect amount of cookie syrup! The interior of the cafe was also really cute and cozy. They have an outdoor section too but I wasn't able to go there due to the rain. I saw their merch too, and I'm going to make another trip back just so I can buy some. Definitely worth a visit!

really cute place, sufficient seating indoor and at the backyard. Coffee tastes really nice as well. The location looks a little un-appealing, but you go inside and have the coffee and the slight disappointment just vanishes. Cannot wait to come back for more :)Parking is sufficient, staff is friendly.

If Dante had a tenth circle of hell, it would be this coffee shop. For $7.50 a cup, I expected liquid gold, but what I got tasted more like liquid regret. Honestly, I'd have been better off scooping water out of a puddle and tossing in some dirt for "earthy notes."The staff? Let's just say they've perfected the art of being disturbingly robotic. Were they on drugs, or were they just malfunctioning? Who knows! Either way, I felt like I was interacting with characters from a dystopian sci-fi flick--emotionless, cold, and utterly incapable of making the place feel welcoming.But hey, at least the decor is cute! If your goal is to take a photo pretending you're having the time of your life while sipping the worst coffee of your life, this place has you covered. The bathrooms were decently clean, which is fortunate because you'll probably need a quiet place to cry after spending $15 on two cups of disappointment.In conclusion: come for the Instagram aesthetic, stay for the soul-crushing regret. Two stars only because the bathroom didn't smell like despair.

What a wonderful spot to grab a coffee and knock out a few work tasks. Dear Austin Coffee Bar popped up on my radar when I was in need of moving from Proud Mary to another spot since they were closing at 4pm. Finding DACB open and a short drive, I figured why not and go check it out. There are a few spots to utilize for parking and I knew I was in for something special as I was walking in through their enclosed courtyard.The interior is like a flashback to a 50s diner and they have a meny beyond coffee including alcoholic and zero proof cocktails. You'll even find boba tea on the menu! My favorite part were the love letters to Austin which was a nice touch.
