Genuinely one of my coffee spots in San Marcos! The vibes are always great when I go in, the baristas are so kind, and the coffee is wonderful. They have seasonal drinks for every season and theyre super yummy! Im glad they extended their hours during the school week because it is also a good place to study.
Great location the scone and cappuccino were average. Disappointed that they only accept plastic which excludes a lot of people unnecessarily
The coffee is really good, and reasonably priced, but its really loud in there for a coffee shop. The employees were inconsiderately the loudest ones in there, so dont expect to get any peaceful work done in there. But then again, thats expected in a university party town.
They require masks. It is against the law in Texas to require me a US citizen, a Texas citizen to wear a mask. I told them no thank you it is my right to not wear one. They said we require it and pushed the mask toward me. I left. Y’all if you support places that “require” you to wear a mask. You are supporting a society that lives in fear and should not be established in our free country. It is ridiculous at this point! If you have been vaccinated and still wear a mask it’s like getting a vasectomy and wearing a condom. Come on y’all this makes no sense. We have to be more aware of how easy this has been for the government to have complete control…
Always a solid place for a cup and a great variety of choices. Always friendly staff and a comfortable, chill place to be. Worth stopping in any time.
Great place to get a cup of coffee. They have a great menu of specialty drinks as well. When you on the Square in San Marcos make sure to stop by!!
Nice staff, but hard to find a place to park. Curbside spots are usually occupied by non curbside shoppers.
They put ALOT of ice in the Iced drinks makes you feel like they skimping on the actual product very disapointing especially since I asked specifically for light ice.
Great atmosphere, delicious coffee, friendly staff.
Wonderful place! Great coffee!!
From out of state and saw the wide selection of coffees & some teas, amazing taste. They gave me a free drink card too! Really takes care of their customers!
The staff is super friendly. What I liked was they are taking strict precautions during this Covid 19 pandemic. They have a table outside and you have to order on the phone or they come outside to take the order. Love their coffee as well!
Always something new and interesting to try I stop by. The staff is always kind!
Amazing baristas and coffee!!!! all of the baristas are SO nice and amazing and helpful. The coffee is organic, locally sourced, and prepared with attention to detail. They also do amazing latte art. They are women-led / gender neutral bathrooms / and even give puppachinos if you bring your dog! Definitely worth stopping by.
My favorite place in San Marcos! Staff is very friendly and the place is very nice! Great for reading a book or working on some homework Coffee and food is great.My favorite drink is actually invented by one of their employees! If you ever feel like trying something new, ask for a dirty chai with coconout milk!
Lets just appreciate that this place offers certified organic coffee which is so rare to find a place. Many people that have issues drinking coffee can tolerate organic coffee or organic decaff. On top of that, the coffee is a local roaster and delicous plus service is kind and prompt. 5 Stars, dont support starbuck$$$ support your local roaster & coffee shops--better coffee and service and doesnt make some greedy fatcat richer.
Great coffee and quick service
The staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Theres always nice ambient music playing, low enough that you can still have a conversation but loud enough to enjoy. Plenty of seating...chairs and tables, sofas and oversized chairs, a couple of barstools, even outside seating. The food looks tasty, but Ive only gotten coffee.
Solid product and knowledgeable staff.
Best coffee shop in town! Great for working, studying, meetings, and of course the great coffee and food. The staff is always so welcoming!
This place is cute! The atmosphere is unique and quaint. The food was yummy and the coffee was so/so. The price is really fair and not as pricy as most cafe/bakery’s I patron. The employees are all super nice and helpful! No complaints!
Enjoyed being in this coffee bar. My son and I ordered a vanilla lattes and they tasted great. Staff was friendly. Service was great. Iwill return to the The Coffee Bar soon. I loved the aviance.
The chai and especially the lavender chai are great drinks. Today I decided to branch out and try the London Fog. I was in a small group, ordered first and then was immediately forgotten. After my group had been served plus three other people who wandered in they finally realized I was still waiting on a drink. When I started checking in after they kept serving other drinks they replied with Its going to take a while to make... You should have made it first then, ladies. Thank goodness I got the regular size because it turned out to be a very sub-par drink due to the rush job they had to go through in steeping the tea.
Great place with friendly staff and good pastries and coffee. They have sandwiches and other food as well. I didnt try them but they looked good. The place is a little week on atmosphere, much like most coffee restaurants. But, hey, the Wifi works great..:)
A fantastic coffee shop across the historic court house, this spot has a real small town- urban feel.
Ordered 2 sandwiches. They take awhile. The 1st came up and the 2nd one came up 15 minutes later. If you are a couple and want to eat together this wont happen. Nothing was said when we ordered that they can only make one at a time.
Just an average coffee house. Went in the late afternoon. It was super warm inside, with direct sunlight glowing into my eyes. Much better place before noon. Too hot in the summer evenings.
Solid coffee and breakfast pastries but Starbucks isnt too worried.
Very enjoyable, great little hole in the wall. Excellent coffee, great, friendly service !!!
Great almond milk lattes -- cute place, friendly staff, nice atmosphere...
We go here when in town to find something gluten free. Theres not usually a big selection, but its something. Not super crowded like the cafe
Dang.Great spot. Whoever makes their product is most likely charming and handsome and probably has a huge ole dong.
Usually a chill quiet spot to study, relax in peaceful atmosphere. Staff always lovely. Highly recommend.
Great atmosphere, food is delicious and the coffee is amazing... will definitely return to this great place...
By far the best coffee in San Marcos! I love stopping by when I pass, such good coffee it’s addicting! Also has a really cute environment!
The service was very kind and attentive. It has a great atmosphere.
Amazing food first! The staff is always friendly and the place has a very nice ambiance.
Staple of SMTX. Love their coffees
Great place on the square. We had the chai tea and oolong tea and both were really good. Nice cozy little place!
Lovely atmosphere, friendly service, decent coffee & beautiful windows!
Cozy atmosphere and great coffee! The bakery items look delicious and love that we can have tea or a mimosa.
Great coffee and espresso
The Coffee Bar in San Marcos has a few exceptional baristas, making the trip worthwhile.
The desert items we have gotten here have all been delicious. The prices are reasonable for a light lunch, and there are a number of coffee/tea drinks to choose from.
Had coffee and scones with a friend here. Absolutely to die for! Its a trendy place, so expect to pay a little more than at, say, a Starbucks, but it is worth it.
Great food, done right. Easy eats for the chill person trying to find a quite area.
Wonderful little coffee shop with great pastries, loose leaf tea, and coffee! Try their cold brew!
Great place, quaint, good coffee, decent beers and baked goods, and live music on Friday nights. Cant go wrong!
The barista was super nice and fun to talk to!
Loved the cozy feel to the place along with li ve music but not to loud like some places great drinks an quick snacks
This is an excellent little coffee shop. The baristas are very friendly and the cheesecake is amazing! They have Wi-Fi and plenty of places to sit inside and outside.
Excellent staff and pastries. Good place to stay in
An actual bakery and coffee shop that serves savory and sweet options. Great lattès.
Really cool place! Its cozy and has amazing food!
I LOVE the restaurant but the bakery was just okay. The food was hit and miss. Some things were okay, other things were awful and nothing was exceptionally good. My latte was the worst Ive ever had. The people working there werent the friendliest.
Love this place, great for doing homework and study with jazz music😍
The barista did phenomenal with my mocha, a true artist, and the baked goods were also delicious
Great food and atmosphere. Would recommend
Great friendly staff.
Good coffee and great cookies. Could use more sandwich selection though.
Went for the flavor, Expresso and a Stone, but stayed for the music.
Delicious heathly food! Love the atmosphere and the people

Excellent coffee, great atmosphere
Great goodies! Great service
Nice quiet place to study and have a snack
Meh theres like 3 overpriced food items and a bunch of bottled drinks. Its a chill study place but not if you have a hankering for any good foods.
Good coffee, good beer, good music
Good atmosphere, Good coffee.
Great little local spot with a fun atmosphere!
Perfect spot for a morning muffin on the square!
Great place to study with a group
Seen some bad reviews, but my experiences have been great.
Coffee and rotating dessert are wonderful
Whats the point of being a coffee shop, if you never have any coffee to supply.......3 different occasions trying to get a coffee to-go and turns out theres none available to fill my cup after Ive already paid for it.......
Best oatmeal ever!
Good pastries, decent coffee.
No alternate milk options.
So crunchy!
Its okay, nothing special.
Great food
