It’s not the best cafe but I keep coming back here time and again. It is spacious, has decently strong coffee, offers a range of food options, and has plenty of parking. However, it often plays loud music, has only a few tables with outlets, and is quite dim.Still one of my go-to cafes!

Super cute and cozy. They play really good music and the staff is very friendly. I brought a little kiddo here and she loved it.I got the kids grilled cheese for her which was HUGE and delicious, and I got the chorizo breakfast taco, which was very filling and yummy.If youre worried this place isnt hipster enough, I didnt know any of the music they played and I saw a guy with an actual handlebar mustache. 10/10

The atmosphere was laid back and the vibe was relaxed and comfortable. The burger of the day and fries were wonderful and I dug in so fast, I didnt get a pic! Here is the OMG breakfast which was also a great choice!

The atmosphere was incredible! Loved the set up, the awnings in the patio was super awesome. The bagel was good the cream cheese was a little light, but ok.The coffee left a lot to be desired, as well as the service. They left my coffee on the counter but brought me my bagel.

Truly recommend this place, friendly staff, tasty food and amazing atmosphere. Perfect for brunch, dinner or just take out after a rough day at work. The food was ready within 5-10 minutes which is awesome if you need a quick refuel before your next thing of the day!

I love this place. Great iced coffee and amazing breakfast tacos - I recommend the sausage, egg, and cheese on a 50/50 tort. The employees are all really friendly, but not in a fake Chick-fil-a kind of way. They seem like regular cool people. I really like that I can order ahead online and my food/drink has never not been ready when I arrived to pick up.

The coffee craft here is excellent! I try many different coffee shops in Austin but this one has hit it out of the park. Using traditional methods and excellent blends they give you notable flavors. Not only that but the price for the coffee is fairly priced, typically cappuccinos for instance fall between 4-4.50 a cup but they are lower. I think this a place everyone should try!

I came here for the first time this morning & it was such a great way to kick off my week! The staff were so friendly, the avocado toast had a nice little kick to it, & the lemon lavender mimosa was 👌 Ill definitely be back soon! 😊

Dank sammy / latte. Yall should line up food + coffee orders better though, waiting 15 minutes for your coffee while your food gets cold is whack.

I am obsessed with their coffee. Their vanilla latte is seriously the best Ive had ANYWHERE. They get 4 stars because there is a super weird smell inside; it needs a good cleaning.

I really love it when I get to give a glowing review like this. From the first step through the door, the staff was wonderfully friendly, helpful, and accommodating. It was my first trip there so I wasnt familiar with the menu offerings. Everyone was exceptionally sweet and pleasant. My latte was prepared to absolute perfection and much more quickly than I would have expected. Likewise with the chilaquiles I ordered. They were brought out to me long before I would have expected them and were absolutely prepared to perfection. I split off some of the Chile basted chips, because it was just a trifle overbearing for my taste. But barely even worth mentioning and easy to push off to the side. Other than that, I literally texted like five people to rave about the place while I was sitting there eating. I will definitely be coming back.

Very close to our home in Elgin, easy to get to. Plates are stupendously big and nicely ✅. Husbands hamburger and fries perfectly cooked. Vegetable-forward menu although I would prefer less fried things. Everything tasted spectacular, staff was exceptionally friendly. Will be back with friends. 💗

I really enjoyed Cenote in Windsor Park. The sweet & spicy burger was incredible, perfectly cooked. The avocado, goat cheese, and chipotle mayo blend together amazingly and work very well together. The americano was also super creamy. The restaurant itself has a nice atmosphere and a cool design. Very spacious while retaining a level of intimacy. A good place to privately work on something or have a small get together with friends. Their menu is unique and blends a variety of foods successfully. Nice staff as well. Definitely recommend this spot.

Very good burrito. I had a bacon breakfast burrito with avocado and Jalapenos. I also ordered a latte to go with. Really good meal and great way to start the day. These Burritos are very large as well! I only finished half and the second half I had for dinner. I had some Franks hot sauce at home and I think that brought my second half to the next level.

I’m so bummed this place didn’t impress me as much as it does others. Maybe I was missing something but I felt like the dishes were just thrown together with no actual thought or pride. The flavors were just okay - nothing special. Unfortunately I probably wouldn’t recommend this place to my friends.

Cenote is a comfortable and roomy place with delicious breakfast and friendly staff. Big plus that they have a coffe bar, as well as wine and drink options. Cleanliness was fairly good although there was some food on the floor in the section I was in. They offer cool gift merchandise and coffee accessories, and growlers are available.I had the Cenote Scramble which was a unique egg dish with flavors and ingredients not normally seen including red pesto and bean sprouts. Very tasty, and pricing was reasonable

Service with smile will be the first thing you notice. The diversity of options is wonderful. I had a lemon lavender mimosa and the Banh Mi. Wow!! Probably one of the best Ive had in Austin.

A cozy coffee shop with a selection of eats from breakfast to burgers, Cenote hits the spot. I ordered the migas with 50/50 tortillas, my friend had the veggie burger with an americano. Both of which were delicious and did not fall short of my expectations. Prices are average. Though I didn’t order a soft drink, I was pleased to see they serve Maine Root sodas. There is an outdoor patio that’s dog friendly. Definitely a good breakfast spot to hit up!

Review №37

Actually pretty disappointed in this place. Got the cenote scramble and while it had a bunch of ingredients, it was really bland. The breakfast potatoes are good, but they also messed up an order (later corrected it though without us asking). What really made this experience poor was they were playing video game, like 8 bit-esque, music loudly over the speakers. For how much sound carries in there, it was way too much. Additionally pretty disappointed that they had signs everywhere to wear masks and wear masks anytime you leave the table, (totally fair) yet none of the staff were wearing masks. Also unclear about tipping, since they have a sign that says a 20% tip will be added to any carry out order, but then we were offered to tip after paying. Really chaotic experience. 2 stars for the potatoes

Cooler than I thought it would be. Relaxed classy venue that offers some of the best food in the area. Great date place or just random grab a drink place. I personally recommend the taco plate and the brussel sprouts. Their wine bottle prices are much better than you find in the area. Im impressed with their outdoor seating area and live music.

My daughter and I had lunch and both of our meals were good. You can trust that Cenote uses local and high quality ingredients! Customer service was lovely and the ambience was great even during the lunch hour. There is a pet friendly patio to bring along our fur baby next time, and we plan to return on an evening with live music.

Best breakfast burrito I’ve ever had, but it didn’t have any salt. It’s great with the salsa, but they only gave one little 1oz cup for a big burrito. But the order was ready for pickup when I arrived and only took a few seconds to grab.

Review №47

The food was cold, and tasteless. We had to wait for pancakes because they burned them. We had to ask for cream and sugar, he brought us 4 packs of sugar for 2 cups ofnasty coffee. We had to ask for salt and pepper for the ru berry eggs. It was too expensive for the quality of food. I will never eat here again. Customer service is horrible.

This is my go-to coffee shop in North-East Austin. They have wonderful coffee and espresso drinks and their food is delicious. We have religiously gotten their 2 for 1 burgers every Thursday for the past year (or more). They have extended their patio spaces and have plenty of outdoor tables for social distancing. Before covid, they also had a pretty great calendar of live music and events-- Im assuming they will pick it up again soon.

What a great find for me. I dare not visit my usual nationwide chain when Im on austin. LOVE this spot for coffee AND came back for lunch too. The pork belly banh mi sandwich was delish.

My familys most beloved local coffee + food spot is Cenote Windsor Park. And we live in Austin, there is no shortage of great places to eat. This is the nicest staff I have ever encountered. They use Wild Gift coffee and they have baristas that make it SING (for real, I travel all over for work and they have one barista that will change your life with a Lavender Oat Milk Latte, Cortado, or a London Fog, I love her). Dont get me started on the food, I have had their potato breakfast taco every Friday for a year, FOR A YEAR, and thats just the taco. Try the Sweet and Spicy burger. Try the huge breakfast plate. Get a local beer and go to the patio, the outdoor is spread out with large benches which is great for distancing and bringing dogs. Theres a front patio and a back patio and it has evolved over time along with the indoor space (they have a thoughtful designer). I have worked from home here; I have met friends here to catch up; I have gone on dates with my spouse here - it is the one place in Austin I would shed tears for if it closed.

Review №66

Im very impressed by this place. I moved to the area in June and just discovered this less than 10 minutes from my home. Eating vegan and gluten free I was skeptical but saw the menu and got interested. After eating, I can say this was the best meal Ive had in a long time. I got a veggie burger and fries, and it was cooked to perfection. I usually get a flavorless patty on cardboard bread at most places, and this was made with love. Texture, flavor, warmth... Loved it. To make it really great, tonight was bogo free burgers, including the veggie burger! So my wifes meal was free. Overall great atmosphere, location, menu variety for allergy restrictions, and well made food. Well be back.P.S. They get their ingredients from local farms. Love it.

I used to not be particular to this place when it had only one overly busy location Eastcentral. So thankful for this coffee shop on Cameron road, it’s an Oasis over here in crack central. I love the happy hour menu, the beet fries, crispy tofu and other vegetarian options are so good 😊 The staff here is the best and the reason why I decided to keep coming back to this location.

I had gotten the Cubano, but when i took a bite i was highly disappointed. It had to have been the driest sandwich ive ever had. The pulled pork was essentially shredded bacon and the bun was hard as if it was sitting under a heat lamp for a while. I dont know if all the food is like this nor am i willing to waste money and find out. The first and last time i order from there

Cenote is my favorite place just to hang out. Their tea, wine, beers are all amazing. But none of that can touch their unique food offerings. After 4 pm is my favorite time to grab something to eat because of their incredible beet fries.I am working on my first book. I lack five chapters having it written and ready for an editor; Cenote is my muse. I am ready to go back and finish that bad girl up!!!!Cenote on Cameron is a jewel hidden right in front of our faces; go; enjoy!

A very interesting, semi-cozy coffee shop/cafe which offers yummy food. The staff are not overly friendly, but they do go above and beyond to get you what you ask for, which is better that the alternative. It was full when we got there so we had to eat outside for our meeting, but thankfully they have heaters outside. What’s with the strange baby pictures everywhere 😂(inside joke I guess)? 🤔

Maybe Im not hipster enough to enjoy this place. Their artisan bread is weird and way too hard. They brew and steep their own teas with tea leaves, but they make it so strong that it is hard to finish a single cup. Plus, they dont even have ranch dressing or tarter sauce. They have huge servings, but I didnt even want to eat it so it was a waste.

This is a nice spot to come if youre in the area. The service is great. I was a little disappointed with the hollandaise sauce on two visits - once it was cold and they warmed it in the microwave which produced lemony scrambled eggs, and once it was lumpy. Aside from that, the coffees great and I stick with their bakery items which are fresh and tasty consistently.

I really only want this place to be popular enough to stay open - but they deserve the stars for being such an amazing diner on 290 and Cameron. Really well-designed menu; great special items. The burgers are fantastic. My friend and I like to go and order the Smoker and the Sweet and Spicy so we can each have half of both and dont have to choose one! They have good wines, a solid coffee bar, and craft beers. Ginormous salads. Very filling breakfast offerings.

My favorite brunch/lunch/coffee spot.Friendly staff. Delicious food, with local sourcing. Great lattes. This area of Austin is a bit of a food desert, so I feel very lucky to have Cenote here!The classic breakfast, scrambled w/cheese, bacon and avocado; is my go-to meal. More recently, we have started coming to Cenote for dinner as well, and man do they have that base covered.The salmon, and shepherds pie are excellent. The veggies and sides are on point, the portions are good and the prices are reasonable.Solid win!

The veggie burger fell ALL THE WAY SHORT of expectations, although I have ordered it before with great results. When I expressed my displeasure, I received excellent and expedient service and was told the meal would be compd, but I opted for another option. And that one was great. Id give it 5 stars if what I originally wanted was better.

Cenote at Windsor Park is a great location to meet up with friends and business travelers in the area. Coffee has always been equal to or better than most from my experience. Wish they had a Golden Latte option as more of people I know and interact with are moving to healthier beverage and food options.

Review №96

The food is good and consistent with their Caesar Chavez location but that’s about it. This location is a long departure from their quirky and relaxed og spot.The thing that really bothered me was the AC above the dining room that ran the entire time filling the whole space with a constant and incredibly loud buzz, I tried to move away from it with not luck because the place is full of hard services that the sound bounces off of. It’s what I imagine riding in an airplane with the door open sounds like. Some insulation is desperately needed around that thing. I’m sure Windsor Park is happy to have it since there’s not much else happening in the area.

Incredible experience. I didnt know what to expect based on pictures and reviews but Cenote delivered in every way. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly which made for an enjoyable experience. You definitely have to try the Chorizo Breakfast Burrito but make sure to add avocado. It is arguably the best breakfast burrito Ive had thus far.
