Houndstooth Coffee

5/5 for vibes, 3/5 for tea (but who is ever really here for tea?)Worked remotely from here and it was a nice experience! Huge window walls, lots of natural lighting, ample seating. I didn't pay attention if there were adequate outlets, but I think there wasn't many. Overall, nice place to be at!

It's ok. I'm visiting my mom from Dallas and am a big tea drinker. I ordered the Jasmine Green. It wasn't to my liking. It was extremely bitter even after their local honey and adding my own honey. So that's a no go for me. But the people working there were very sweet and nice!

I live in the neighborhood and come here a few times a week for my morning coffee. The staff is super friendly and they often have a little cookie for my dog. There's plenty of outlets inside for working and WiFi. I've worked from here when WiFi at my house was down and it was lovely. My one critique is that I wish they had cinnamon for coffee drinks. I asked once if they had cinnamon to sprinkle on my latte and they said no.

Great place to grab coffee, meet friends, study, and chill! Service is great, coffee is tasty, and there is a good amount of seating. I live nearby and this has become my go-to for WFH, studying, and meeting up with friends. The baristas are extremely friendly, and I love that they take the time to get to know everyone as they prepare your order. They also have a wonderful selection of little pastries all day, as well as tacos in the morning. It's a shame that there is so much construction going on in the building itself at the moment, because the scaffolding is covering basically the whole cafe, making it look closed (but it's not!). My go-to is either a hot latte or cappuccino. Highly recommend going, even if the construction makes it look closed!

I don't know what it was but the cappuccino I had here seemed extra strong. I felt very caffeinated. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing (it is a coffee shop, after all). They have some tacodeli breakfast tacos but as they're not made to order, they're never quite as good. But you know that going in.

Visiting Austin & staying down the street walking distance from our Airbnb. Decided to try out Houndstooth for some early morning coffee, and we're glad we did! I got a vanilla latte & my husband a honey-lavender latte. It was our quickly & we were greeted & helped by friendly staff. We didn't get breakfast but I saw they had breakfast tacos & some yummy looking pastries. It was nice & clean inside & super pet-friendly. I took a long look at their Polaroid wall of fur babies- so cute!!

As I have been exploring all of the different coffee shops in Austin, I have come to realize that there are two types of coffee shops. The social coffee shops and the working coffee shop. Houndstooth is definitely a social coffee shop. First, the ambiance of the coffee shop is really nice and open. I love a modern classic coffee shop with a nice aesthetic so I appreciate that they have such a cute and simplistic vibe.The music was so good too. Usually I prefer when a coffee shop doesn't have music on super loud but I appreciated all of the music they were playing. Now, with that being said, they had NO outlets. I had come to study and get work done but unfortunately I wasn't able to get much done cause my computer died and there was no plugs. After 6pm they turn off the lights and turn up the music too. I had a regular hot latte with white chocolate syrup and their holiday foam and it was absolutely delicious! They have so many drink options and they also have a bar if your would rather have an alcoholic beverage. Overall I would come back to catch up with friends and if i'm in the area but I would not come back to study.

Came to Houndstooth on a Sunday morning, and it was relatively empty. Lots of tables/seating both inside and outside, which is great. We waited in a short line for our beverages and were in-and-out decently quickly. This location has street parking, which I found decently easily but not sure about other times/peak hours.

A friend moved right next door so I was excited to hopefully get a new neighborhood coffee place.My coffee has always been good. But there's a couple things that take away from a better experience. They don't have any coconut milk or heavy cream. It just seems weird- those are pretty standard coffee add ins. The other is the fact when you pay, you can't touch the credit card screen. So the cashier turns it around and says, loudly, in this very small space with people standing in line listening "do you want to tip". So not only do you have to bc who wants the be THAT guy, but then you have to give an amount and again, who wants to be THAT GUY? I'm all for tipping but I do it because I want to- not because I'm weirdly shamed to. And I get it, it's covid but all other places simply wipe a screen or use paper receipts to write a tip in. Also, an iced coffee and a vanilla latte somehow cost $11, which is appalling.

Visited Houndstooth for some remote work during our visit to Austin. Enjoyed the coffee from Houndstooth. They had breakfast tacos and a small pastry selection. We were close enough to walk, but it doesn't appear that parking is easy in the area.Three stars because, while it appears to be a great location for working remotely, there are no outlets to charge a laptop. We found out the hard way when our laptops alerted us the battery was low.A lot of other reviews mention it as well, but I haven't looked ahead unfortunately. Maybe to save on their electric bill? Maybe to discourage people from staying seated all day? Who knows, but I would have appreciated a heads up there were no outlets when we asked for the Wi-Fi password.
