Reviews for Texas Expresso in Austin, TX
This is the best kept secret on UT campus and I am slightly scared to write this review as I hope it stays that way... But this... place is top notch quality across the board. Classic Italian espresso beverages done to perfection, great paninis and snacks. Even the bagels here are outstanding, better than many custom bagel shops. So grateful for this oasis of culture on Wallercreek! Read more
Amazing service, great variety of food and coffee (the quesadini, lemon bars, and matcha green latte are all supreme), and a... relaxed ambience both inside and out that\'s perfect for studying or meeting with friends. 10/10 for sure recommend. Read more
I?m a graduate student at UT and study here almost everyday. The food is high quality, tasty, and fresh. I normally get the half... sandwich and soup special and it never fails. The coffee is great, I?m an ex-barista so I know good coffee. Speaking ofbaristas, the staff is SO kind. They go out of their way to make sure your order is satisfied and never make a bad latte. I lovemy study trips to the cafe!! Read more
Cuvee coffee is featured at this lovely small cafe set in the southwest corner of the Etter-Habin Alumni Center. Panini, salads... and friendly staff. Sit by Waller Creek and catch a glimpse of urban wildlife. Read more
Great for a quick coffee. Indoor furniture and atmosphere is very Texan themed, and very comfortable. However, outdoor chairs... are all metal and not the most comfortable. Overlooks a steam with some of the most greenery on campus. However, it\'s locationis far from many other popular buildings, meaning it\'s usually a long walk to your next appointment. Read more
Great coffee (americanos are terrible though). Plenty of seating to study, nap or grab a snack under beautiful iron chandeliers.... It\'s pretty loud here with students coming in and out but luckily, there is quiet space adjacent to the cafe. Good sandwicheshere too, I recommend the griled cheese, chicken salad, or caprese.

As someone who attended both college and, more recently, graduate school at The University of Texas, I ate a lot of meals (and... drank a LOT of coffee) on the UT campus. More often than not, this meant warmed-over slices of pizza or fast-food tacos, whichis why I was so thankful that Texas Expresso was located just down the street from the School of Social Work, where I took mostclasses. Located in the Etter-Harbin Alumni Center, Texas Expresso is a small coffee shop with a decent selection of paninis,salads, pastries, smoothies, and (of course) coffee drinks. These are all basics- nothing here will blow your mind- buteverything I\'ve had here is done well and tasted fresh. The caprese panini, with a side of sun-dried tomato dipping sauce anda fruit salad, was always my go-to here. If you\'re feeling a bit more indulgent, the grilled cheese with muenster, cheddar,and blue cheese, served with cherry jam dipping sauce, is excellent as well. Everything is made fresh to order, so beforewarned, your food can take a few minutes. Seating in the shop is limited, but there are plenty of comfy armchairs andcouches, perfect for studying, just outside in the alumni center. I don\'t think I could have gotten through college withoutthis place! Read more
