Kick Butt Coffee

I really dig it here. Super close to my office so I'm able to grab my morning lavender latte and baked treat.The cookies are to die for!! Anime Pop!!!They've got a killer cocktail selection too.Fun to see live performances as well.So very Austin. Yay.

Stopped by this coffee shop on my way to work and was definitely a pleasant surprise. It's tucked away in a small shopping complex but it's huge on the inside and features a full bar! I grabbed an almond milk latte and two breakfast tacos and it was 20 dollars with tip. The tacos were really good and the coffee was better than some other really over priced shops in the area. It's a hidden gem and the service was nice. This place should be more crowded for the quality of food, WiFi and just abundance of space. A note to folks: their default tipping percentages are higher than other places -20,25,30% but I feel it's worth it.

A fun coffee shop with a selection of coffee, drinks and food. I was happy to find that there's real food in addition to pastries. There's also a variety of beers and hard alcohol. There's live entertainment on the weekends and a nice sized stage. Parking is available in a lot in front and a t's right off the freeway. The women's washroom was fun with all the stickers and it was clean with a place to put things like you bag.

Such a vibrant and fun environment/community! I came here to see a friend perform her poetry pieces during a Sunday open mic. It was an entertaining night for sure. They had cocktails/well drinks for $5.25 which was great. I have to take off one star for the drinks! I ordered a simple matcha and the server did not blend the drink as I watched him make it. He stirred it with the end of a knife which seemed unsanitary and odd that they did not have proper equipment. Definitely check this place out.

LOVE this place!!!!I came yesterday because it is next to where my son is attending summer camp. I came again today.I love the coffee. The caramel macchiato and the breakfast sandwich on a crossaint.It's a chill atmosphere. The staff are very nice and helpful with suggestions. It's literally the coolest place I've ever been to get coffee.I didn't even want to take too many photos and look uncool ..I highly recommend if you are in the area.

Kick Butt Coffee is one of my favorite local venues in Austin to go see live music, or to play at with my bands Frogmouth and Öld Phükkerz (shameless self promotion)! The venue is intimate, with great sound (both on stage and off), and the staff and management are always very accomodating. What's even better is that it's all ages and I get to bring my kids out to shows, and the whole family has a great time! The food and drinks are the icing on the cake, as their baked goods and tacos we've tried have all been high quality. This spot serves a variety of purposes in the community, whether it a be a great coffee shop that has fun and inviting ambiance, or a great venue giving up and coming bands and performers a place to share their craft with local music lovers. This is truly a killer spot that contributes to making Austin an incredible place to live!

I did not go into the store but had it delivered. The breakfast taco flour tortilla was stuck to the wrapper. The chocolate chip muffin was good though.

Time for an update! First: read my reviews below! Both are still valid. Today I'd like to add that Kick Butt is a solid establishment that cares about its customers, the employees, and the community. This is not a faceless, corporate operation. Join the mailing list and learn about the staff, the great things the business supports, and the great events being hosted. All of this, plus the customer service, pastries, sandwiches, drinks, and varied meal menu, are why I stop in whenever my travels bring me back into Austin.

My review is solely for this location as a music venue - I didn't get any food or drink here. It seems like a cool place for that, though.They've got a cool corner stage, enough room for a dance floor, and vendors set up during SXSW. I'd recommend bringing earplugs if you're here for a while - the sound setup is legit and it is loud with a small space.Edit: And clearly by the speed of the response of the business manager, they care about the experience here (sub 30-minutes while I'm still here, man!). Hope to catch future events!

Great coffee and kick ass music. Never a bad combo added bonus of martial arts studio next door.
