Great venue for drinks and late night events. I find myself coming back time and time again to hang out on their patio while working. Whoever chooses their music is doing a great job! Parking is WAY better than their Manchaca location. While I'm not the biggest fan of the food truck options here, the ambiance is what pulls me back. Pro tip: If you get an iced tea here, refills are free. Great value!

I love all the Radio coffee locations and this is not exception. this one in particular has a super cute and spacious atmosphere. I had the Vietnamese coffee and it was amazing.

Radio East is a good chill south of the river East east side venue. I don't really like that. It's called radio East because it's not in East Austin. It's in South East Austin. Which is confusing because there is a radio coffee in East Austin. The naming of this thing was poorly chosen. And the original is South Austin off Lamar, but whatever. That said, it is a cool venue, with a variety of different music. Shows, almost always circulating around some kind of good music. Whoever is doing their booking is doing a good job. Went to a really nice chill show there last night and it was lovely. They have really good coffee concoctions, draft beer, and can mix drinks. Had a really great time, thanks to radio...ummm...err... east

I absolutely love the atmosphere at this place. There's plenty of outdoor seating (shaded and not) surrounding the main bar, and I love the food truck options, especially Veracruz which has fantastic food. I've only eaten from the food trucks so I can't comment on the bar options. I visited both during lunch and dinner; the night I went also happened to be open mic indoors which was relaxed and quiet (and crowded), but plenty of room outdoors if you wanted to just chat with friends.

Great atmosphere. They regularly have events and live music. This is a great place if you want to go to work or a game night with friends. They have kombucha on tap. If you don't want coffee or alcohol they also have a full bar. Their matcha is high quality and unsweetened. It might be difficult to go to if there's bad weather or raining because the majority of this venue is outside. On nice days this is a perfect place to go

One of the best venues I've been to in Austin, hands down. The atmosphere, the space and the artisans/good trucks they brought out really made it all worth it, and I'm not even talking about the performers. I WILL be back.

3 Food trucks are parked outside for your foodie needs. Pet friendly and welcomed. ADA wheelchair accessible inside. Shaded outside plus a stage for live music. Great coffee and teas.

Great vibe, plenty of seating. It was a Sunday afternoon so I expected it to be even more packed. The coffee and matcha choices were awesome, I think I had a pineapple upside down latte. So cool, so different. Some good food truck options as well, with a Veracruz Tacos and Chicken Lollipop place. There was a cut off for the parking nearby, smaller cars only. Not a problem, just thought it was a bit strange. Also, they have concerts and take the fences down and have had 2,000 people there. Very cool. @ianofAustin approved!

It’s no secret, I’m a true regular of Radio/South and big fan. Radio/East is the 2nd gem in the Radio family and it’s already a staple on the east side. Same unbeatable combo: top-notch coffee ☕️, chill vibes and on top - a killer outdoor stage that hosts live music almost nightly. Plenty of indoor/outdoor seating makes it perfect for remote work or meetups. The staff is super friendly and laid-back (shoutout to the crew! 🙌🏼). Veracruz 🌮 (Migas Originales, yay 😋), Shortwave (awesome burgers) and a chicken wings food trucks are on-site, all delicious. Early morning, day or night. Radio/East rocks!

Radio East feels like the quieter, more relaxed version of the original Radio Coffee & Beer. If you’ve ever been to the first one, you know it can get really busy, especially on weekends or when there’s live music. This one on the east side is way more chill. It’s a great place to go when you want good coffee without the crowds. There’s a big outdoor area with lots of shade and plenty of space to sit. It’s easy to find a quiet spot to read, journal, work, or just enjoy your drink. The vibe is still cool and welcoming, but not too loud or packed. It’s perfect if you’re looking for a slower pace. The coffee is just as good as the original, and there’s beer too if you’re in the mood. There are also food trucks here, and the ones I’ve tried have been really tasty. It’s the kind of place you can hang out for a while without feeling rushed. If you like the original Radio but want something a little calmer, Radio East is worth checking out. It’s cozy, friendly, and feels like a little hidden gem on the east side.

Review for RADIO/EAST I really like this location—it feels cozy and welcoming, with a great atmosphere to relax or get some work done. One big plus is the spacious parking lot, which makes it super convenient. If you’re hungry, there are food trucks on site. I tried one during my visit and thought the food was just okay, especially considering there were extra fees for mobile orders. That said, I’d definitely come back again for the coffee. It’s a solid spot overall!

This location is great! Such a large space with plenty of seating. Dog friendly outside. Inside was very modern but had the welcoming radio feel. Great place to hang out on the east side.

This is a solid venue for a bigger outdoor show. Plenty of space to move around without feeling crammed in, and there really isn't a bad view from anywhere. Good sound for outdoor stage. I really like how you get the entire use of the property when they have a concert here. Three food trucks all open during the show. I feel like they're doing what most other 'bigger' outdoor Austin venues strive to do. Radio East is firing on all cylinders, still be ready to pay event pricing on drinks +parking can be a PITA if you don't get here early enough.

Honestly, it's such a cool place! More of a coffee shop and bar rolled into one. Lots of outdoor seating, decent amount of indoor seating as well. The only thing I will mention is if you're looking for a consistent grab and go coffee shop or even a regular work/study spot, I personally wouldn't rely on this one. They have lots of events! Sometimes you can't go into the coffee shop and order unless you have a ticket for the show. The past 3 times I've come here, I haven’t been able to actually go inside and get a drink.

Sonia Farina

This is such a great spot to work remotely or catch up with a friend. Typically has plenty of seating, even in busy days. The happy hour specials are fair, and the variety of rotating specialty drinks and cocktails is something to look forward to

NOT DOG FRIENDLY inside although there are no signs and food is outside. I came here to work because my internet went out at home. It was during the ice storm so I came inside with my tiny 7 pound dog to work. I had looked online and it said that this place was dog friendly inside and outside. I did bring my dog to the other location and was fine. Also, this place was so packed with hard, uncomfortable chairs. They suggested I work outside and that they have heaters. NO WAY! Glad I did not spend my money here. I went to the brewery down the road. They allow dogs, have plenty of space, and serve delicious coffee!
