Located in almost a lobby area of a building in downtown San Antonio, my husband and I stopped here on a Friday evening for a drink fix and reading place. Inside there is comfortable seating area and tables which make it a great place to study (there is still limited seating overall so harder if you have a big group but groups of 2-4 would be fine). They do have free WIFI and worked great when I was there. I did not get any of their coffee drinks as it was late in the evening, but did have their Irish mocha latte decaf which was very good and glad they had oat milk and made the drink not too sweet! Service was friendly (the barista personally hand delivered the drinks to us) and loved that the drink was served in warm and cozy mugs. Parking - plenty of metered parking around and as it was less busier part of downtown San Antonio wasn't difficult finding a spot.

Full disclosure I'm a Valero or at home coffee guy. We have meetings in this building all the time and I'm a sucker for the smell coffee! It's very good quality coffee and tastes amazing. I still can't order right. My gripes and why it's not a 5 for me are issues others may not have. If you're in a rush or running late to a meeting...forget it. It's not fast or quick. Don't think it was intended for that. So I understand that. Also it's not ridiculously overpriced but not cheap. The pastries are delicious. The staff is also very friendly!

I'm so glad that I found this very cute coffee roasters, on a side street in the middle of downtown San Antonio. Apparently it's a family run business which I always love. The located within a bigger building that houses, what looks like apartments, with security guard. There is also a barbershop on site. It's very easy to miss this coffee shop. They had a sign out on the street which enabled me to locate them. Inside they have comfy seats, which gives off a hip and artsy vibe. I love that. The coffee was outstanding and I will definitely be back for more. The girl behind the counter was helpful and kind and eager to please the customer.

Obsessed with the ambiance of this place - it's has almost like a classy, elegant, old fashioned cigar lounge look to it, and was really quiet on a Saturday afternoon. There's lot of seating and cute little games at lots of the tables if you want to hang out for a while. The service was super friendly and polite which I always appreciate! I got a cappuccino with toffee nut syrup added to it which was ok, just nothing special. The person I was with got a hot tea which seemed decent, too, just nothing to write home about.

Very happy to find a Coffee Shop that has so many diabetic friendly options. I got the Iced Latte with Sugar-free English Toffe. Was delicious. The owner and barrista were super friendly. This will be our goto spot for Coffee when visiting San Antonio.

La Vida is a really great place to study and read. The manager and staff are really personable, too; and they take time to actually connect. I love the coffee and the selection of sugar free flavors. Atmosphere is beautiful, too. Hidden gem for sure!
