Busy road and a gem of south Austin. It is very cute inside and the coffee (iced americano) is not watered downed at all. Strong and flavorful. It is not acidic, it taste groundy. Fans of Colombian or Guatemalan will love the coffees here.

Great friendly service and coffee. Capitol Tacos too! Cheers!

Such a cute and spacious coffee shop! Loved starting my morning here with a dirty chai in hand.

Always delicious - a classic coffee house you don’t have to be a hipster scientist to drink coffee here. Good news though hipster scientists! They have delicious twists on things to add to your drink which you’ll likely enjoy - everything they make here is delicious and the back patio feels like a secret garden. Go check them out!

Weird coffee and drinks that you can’t find anywhere else. Good gluten free selection of snacks. Fantastic back patio.

Coffee was too strong for me and almond creamer very blah! Lol it’s ok I still give 5 stars for nice patio and friendly attentive service! I will try something else from their menu next time 😁👍

Coffee is fantastic. The reason I put 1 star is because I want to warn people about parking behind the building.My car got booted right in front of my face when I walking back to my car. I parked in the lot behind the building for 3min... I got my coffee at 4:30pm. I walked back to our car at 4:31pm. And, the time on my boot ticket said 4:40pm.. This is insane... That parking lot is a scam... If you check the reviews for other business on that street, you will see so many people talking about that parking lot scam.

Love this place! Great patio in the back that is quiet and perfect for social distancing. Cold brew coffee is super and I would definitely recommend the breakfast tacos. Friendly staff 10/10

Theyve expanded the outside space since the last time I was there. Good Place, good coffee

My favorite cafe in Austin. Great coffee and super friendly staff. Chill vibe. Indoor/outdoor seating

Came in, greeted kindly, ordered a cold brew and picked up a Thunderbird bar. The facility is cozy and the there is an easy-going feel to the place. My order was handled promptly and received service with a smile. I will definitely come back and repeat. I recommend this place if you want an alternative to corporate coffee. That and I like smaller coffee houses. Thumbs up.

Enjoyed the latte here. They only have paper/plastic cups, so that was a bummer but nice vibe otherwise. Not sure about the “organic/fair trade” claim - saw nothing in here to indicate that was the case (coffee bags didn’t say it, and some of the coffee flavor pumps were Ghirardelli, but they did have organic bananas- so who knows). You have a selection of hot and cold coffee, beer and wine as well as some food, mostly prepackaged. They have outdoor picnic tables as well with umbrellas. Everyone but us was on their computer so seems like the place to come to get some work done. We dug the music they had playing and it wasn’t too loud (weekday morning). Think they have live music as well. Give it a try!

Great local Cafe with good coffee, great outdoor seating area, and local art on display. Free wifi with ~10 seats inside and 30+ outside.

Good coffee. Friendly staff. Get there early if you want a breakfast taco !

I absolutely love the cold brew. The peanut butter snack thing was good too. I did not stay but they do have an outdoor seating area.

Seating is Hella uncomfortable.... and the drinks are decent with the bougie prices one expects in this area..

Great food and friendly atmosphere. I had the grilled cheese with chips. I have eaten at this place several times over the years and always enjoy it.

Worlds best coffee. Love the vibe as well.

Such a cute shop! My mocha latte was very rich and sweet and the espresso was a nice flavor. My partners Matcha tea was excellent too.

Great back patio with doggie water bowls and lots of seating. Backyard bar at night.

I love the people who work there and their butterscotch iced latte!☺

Love the location of the patio, you don’t feel like you’re right on crowded/busy south Lamar. Just be aware with your parking, there are a few lots within that square block, but plenty of signs are posted.

Its a great place for a great cup of ☕ coffee or wine from the bar good atmosphere good place to be in Austin

Dont go there, the lot behind the building will boot your car, as soon as you walk away. Its a scam and all the businesses are getting a cut.

The experience at Irie Bean is Austin in a nutshell. From the soft spoken, friendly staff to the worn hipster-esque esthetic, this place is more than a tourist trap. Although a little more than I’d like to pay for flavored hot water and a stroopwaffel... this is a great way for an out-of-towner to start their day.

Single shot Americano. Coffee had good flavor, not too bitter, not too mild. Pretty delicious actually. Lacks the local pretense of other shops. Check out the back patio. Cool place. Four stars because coffee as way over the 140F mark.

Great indoor and outdoor space to sit and have coffee.

Pretty solid coffee, espresso was a little lacking but not bad.

Leslie, Cera & the whole team are always super friendly! They have the most delicious cold brew and some of the best freshly baked goods and snacks. Always a great vibe in here whether you’re grabbing to to go or want to stay and work or hang out. Highly recommend!

I’ve been coming to Irie Bean for the past year and this place is super quirky. The environment is so laid back and welcoming and it just draws you in like a warm hug. I especially love how creative they are with their menu in offering a wide variety of drinks from classic espresso to turmeric lattes to beer. It’s a great spot to check out in a lively part of town! 2 thumbs up!

Friendly service, a great tasting double espresso with a small glass of cool water on the side. A morning cant go any better than this :)

Favorite coffee shop with a nice shaded patio area. You can even grab a crossword puzzle by the register for a fun brain warm-up to accompany your morning coffee.

Eclectic Austin people, I had the toasted marshmallow latte and delicious house made and healthy prepackaged snacks. They make and sell their own funky coloring book. It’s a cool place to hang out. Buy some stickers made by the owner’s son. Have good feelings for ierie.

Great Service.

Love the vibe here. Came to have a couple drinks and relax. The girl working behind the bar, Makenzie, was very sociable and nice. She kept the atmosphere very light and fun with every customer I saw her interact with. Ill definitely be coming back! Also the Dirty Chai and Cream Cheese Bread I had there were delicious!

Cool, vibey coffee shop. Good iced lattes 👍🏼

Great neighborhood hangout posing as a coffee bar. And I mean that in the most complimentary way. They have fine coffee and offer all of the amenities of a local coffee shop. However, they transform in the evenings into a whole other thing. The backyard alternates as a movie theater, music venue, and local pub, with a space shared with East Side King. So, get your great local food and a can of Pearl Snap, and catch the Thursday night open mic. Very friendly. Relaxed. And kids like it, too.

Nice latte with latte art. Good price and casual atmosphere. They use Texas Coffee Traders coffee, which is ethically sourced and locally roasted.

Irie Bean is a great place. It always has been in my experience. Great coffee and beer, friendly service, a chill atmosphere with a cool patio. Whats not to like? Also the Thursday open mic run by Diane and Nick is an underrated Austin tradition.

The service is amazing! The barista helping us was so friendly and helpful. Drinks were served exactly as we requested. Extra dirty chai lattes. The happy hour is decent. Wine selection is limited, but sufficient. Beers are a little more broad. The environment is comfortable for friendly meetups, solo work, and anything in between.

A tiny glimmer of old Austin remains! A breath of fresh air from the over-branded outside world. Irie Bean is my safe place. Their coffee is amazing, their snacks are tasty, and all of it is affordably priced. The regulars are a trip. I hope to be coming here for many more years.

Great place to get coffee.

My favorite coffee shop in South Austin!

Ive been here many times and its always been good. This time I got a peppermint mocha and it was perfect!

Best chai latte ever. Fantastic music playing. Yes, please.

Ive been going to this place for years. I used to live nearby and I went quite a bit but now that Im farther away not so much. But it still reigns as my favorite coffee shop. Down to earth, friendly staff, diverse customers and they make a delicious Chai Latte. Oh yes, and a variety of yummy gluten free pastries to choose from. Love it!

Small coffee shop and bar. Ive been twice now, and baristas have been kind and quick.I enjoy the casual vibe, thats in between a coffee shop and dive bar. Small tables inside. Lots of outdoor space on the patio.

Bought an iced mocha to sip on as I walked around S Lamar and was somewhat surprised at how smooth it was. A well balanced blend of chocolate, cream, and still being able to taste the coffee. I look forward to finding myself nearby in the future.

Ive only been to irie Bean a couple of times but I really really like it. The coffee is great the people are friendly and it hasnt need patio in the back where I can bring the dog. We can also walk there so it can be a fun place to go in the morning with dog before it gets hot out.

I love Irie Bean, its always a very relaxed atmosphere and the staff is always super friendly and helpful. Especially Kelly! He suggested I try oatmilk for my latte when I was trying to cut out dairy and it CHANGED MY LIFE.

Great coffee! Love coming with my dog and sitting on the spacious patio. Have been to a couple of their events in the evening like open mic night & is always a fun crowd.

Great place with a variety of canned beers. The patio is great. I dont know if its shared with ESK, but there is always someone with food.The Batistas are chill and knowledgeable. They are quick and service oriented.Ive walked over a few times and never regret it.I havent checked out the music night, but Im planning a night to hang.

Great neighborhood spot with easy access from Lamar.

New to Austin and new to the coffee game in general. Since being here for a month, I feel like me acquiring a taste for coffee is inevitable. Irie bean has been, by far, my favorite spot for coffee AND hot chocolate (thank you for the shot of whipped cream, btw 😉). Working remotely, Ive been checking out different spots, but Ive enjoyed Irie bean the most so far.

Irie bean is super close to where I love so I appreciate having some great coffee at a short distance for a little pick me up! Love that they offer beer and wine as well so you can relax out in the patio :)

Great place to visit! Open Mic on Thursdays! Fun friendly people with a selection of beer on tap, mimosas, and most important coffee!👍🏼

Very friendly barista and great selection of drinks.

Fantastic coffee shop; iconic Austin and there to stay. Check out their open mic Thursdays and artist showcases on the weekends. They also host a visual artist monthly on their walls inside.

Great coffee and excellent service.

Great atmosphere, great coffee, and it’s got that neighborhood vibe. Lovely backyard with regular happenings scheduled. Fun hanging chairs. It’s a great little oasis!

My favorite coffeeshop in Austin! Great coffee, breakfast tacos and bagels in the morning, chill music, and rotating local art on display. Patio is great too. Check it out!

My go to place when I worked a couple buildings down. Easily one of the best “Austin original” type vibe coffee shops I’ve been in, and definitely my personal favorite.

The atmosphere is soo prime and chill. I like going on Saturdays when the barista Brittany is working! Shes extremely knowledgeable and gets me my caffeine in a speedy delivery.

They have spacious outdoor seating.

Visited on Sat I believe. Looking forward to coming back with my relatives. The bill wont break you. They have so many great reviews for a reason.

The back patio is lovely. Friendly staff, the espresso is consistent, and they have a decent selection of beer. Great spot to study or listen to live music out back, and certainly the best coffee shop along south Lamar.

Best coffee experience ever!!☺️

Patio is real cool. Dogs can only be inside for a short time while ordering. Biggest disappointment is cigarette butts are everywhere on the patio. Seems like they are coming from employees too while under the covered part too. I wouldn’t bring kids or dogs here. Drinks are meh.

The baristas were friendly in a genuine kinda way. They were very helpful in getting my particular needs met .. particular not difficult. Coffee was half sweet and tasty, bagel warm and crispy around the edges, hummus was in a little plastic thing but was good with the bagel, wifi had me scrolling FB and Insta while I waited for scooter inspection across the street. Will coffee here again if Im in that area.

Love this place especially to study! Cool chill inside and cool music outside!!! Gotta try their Zucchini bread its the best!

Cute spot, good coffee, amazing outdoor area. Wish it had a few more breakfast selections, tacos are solid though.

Great coffee, great service! Seating could be slightly more comfortable but other than that...I love this place.

I love the Irie Bean! It’s one of my go to chia tea latte spots! The atmosphere is cozy and it’s location is stellar!

Friendly foljs, delicious coffe drinks and even cold brew popsicles. Lovely shady patio out back. I got a coconut milk latte and it was delicious

Went in this Sunday afternoon, for a Chai and a bagel. The atmosphere was very welcoming. Regular customers were coming in and a very friendly place to be. Always enjoy visiting because this is a very consistent and charming place!

Coffee is great, atmosphere is even better. Great place to chill and get coffee or a beer. They are great about having a variety of gluten free options as well.

Great friendly staff, warm and inviting open mike on thursdays, good beer selection and amazing coffee, especially the cold brew. plus gluten free pastries from peoples pharmacy, tacos, bagels... whats not to love!

One of my favorite Austin spots. Great coffee, great atmosphere, and the people here really make it come alive. Also have a bar out back you can get beer from when eating East Side King. Love coming here, only thing that can get tricky is finding parking!

First visit was great. Very personable barista. I happened to come at happy hour so the prices were fantastic. Free WiFi and you can go straight from drinking coffee to alcohol which is a bonus in my book!

Love the outdoor seating and their dietary restriction inclusive menu

This place has my little coffee loving heart...One of the best lattes around and I drink alot of lattes. Seems like Radio coffeeshop would steal a little bit of business but I feel its two different niches.Irie Bean excels with great employees and better tasting coffee. I also love the semi secluded patio in the back.When I get coffee here in the morning, I know everything in my day will be Irie

So much great art and music here! Only missing a star because the parking situation is bad enough sometimes I have to go somewhere else.

Typical coffee house. Small on the inside but offers a back patio. Coffee is quality, drinks are delicious and there is even a modest beer selection. Never seems to be overcrowded nor excessively noisy. Open mic nights on thursdays and occasional fun events like the upcoming clothing swap.

I love this place!! Its typical old school Austin with a small coffee shop with cool vibe, good coffee and breakfast tacos and a bonus of crossword puzzles.They have free wifi which is hard to find 😉☕️

This place has the best coffee. Great beer selection and the chill patio in the back is a hidden gem.

My favorite coffee shop in Austin! Super friendly staff, you dont have to come long before they know your name and order. Now they have a beer garden in the back which is awesome.

I love this little local coffee shop with lots of room to sit outside in back. Its a gem.

Yes I love to come here with my family and dog in the morning we love to get there at around 9 or 10 to get the tacos because they are really good and especially with salsa but I also love the coffee there it is like boom 🎆 so really recomentr you to go.also the clients are really nice and respectful

You have a very welcoming atmosphere there. The employee that night was very LGBT friendly, which was great! And the coffee was fantastic!Pick me!!!

I love this place. It’s so homey, the coffee is DELICIOUS (everything from simple to fancy drinks), and I love the set up with the bar around the baristas. The huge back outdoor area is very pretty.

Love this place! Great coffee, wifi, and barista.

This little coffee shop is great. I love the atmosphere and there really needs to be more tiny shops like this around Austin.

Vibrant atmosphere, no pretense and a great cup of coffee.Also, some of the loveliest baristas Ive ever encountered.Bring your dog and hang out on the back patio or bring your book (or iPad if youre one of those folks) and read for a bit. Plenty of regulars.Do yourself a favor and try the iced coffee. For my money its the best in town.

As chill as you would expect from the name with terrific coffee to boot. Five stars if there was better parking.

Coffee is good, variety of espresso drinks. Not much variety in what beans are used. They also have beer and wine.

One of my favorite chill, local South Austin coffee joints. Try their dirty chai, espresso or a coffee with a one of those buttery vitamin bombs.

Great little hole in the wall coffee shop with vegan gluten baked goods

Great patio, great music

Cool local coffee shop with warm personal service.

I really, really like this coffee shop because its so multi-functional. Its housed in the 2310 SoLa shopping center--right next to Casita Taco. They have indoor space to work; they have outdoor space with a fire pit if youd like to meet up with a friend for a beer.Great place to go for the day and get some work done. They have couches and tables if you prefer to sit at a desk.They also have beer and wine, in addition to live music. You can definitely tell its a hippie-friendly coffee shop-- dog friendly happy hours (4-8 PM) and drum circles!
