First timer here … I tried Thistle because it was close to my “goto” breakfast place, whose line was too long. I guess it was a blessing in disguise. The food was available fast; and the tacos were tasty—every ingredient, like it was fresh. 😎 I peaked under the tortilla cover and put some sauce on it, which only enhanced the flavor and didn’t cover it up. I also appreciate the conversation while taking the order—not too much, but enough to feel like an individual customer. Nice! I’ll be back to try the rest of the menu!

This is an absolutely lovely little breakfast and lunch spot perfect for anyone working or just visiting nearby in downtown Austin. I've been a number of times now and had many different menu items, and it's always excellent. Moreover, the staff is always extremely warm as well as professional and diligent. The burger is great, the wraps are great, the breakfast tacos and migas plate are great, the people and prices are great - in short, it's great. + The food is consistently delicious. + The workers/management are consistently friendly. + The prices are extremely fair.

Delicious!! I enjoyed the Migas breakfast tacos with some of their mild salsa. The veggies were fresh and crisp. The tortillas tender and warm. This little cafe is tucked between two tall buildings with stairs leading to a little courtyard and the Thistle cafe. Such a great find!

My wife and I stopped in to have a few tacos and a coffee and it was WONDERFUL!!!! I got the blueberry matcha and she got Mexican mocha latte and both were amazing! Not to mention we got two free cookies with our order! I got the Barbacoa and she got the country tacos and it was so delicious I apologize I’m not posting picture because I took one bite and forgot!! 11/10!

Thistle cafe was great. No frills spot for a quick bite. Seemed like they got a lot of buisness people coming in on their lunch break. I ordered 2 tacos and a latte. Tacos were great! Reasonably priced and fast!

Great breakfast tacos! Hot and tasty! Very reasonable priced! Super friendly staff! They gave us free cookies too! For the coffee snobs my latte was made with a one of those automatic coffee machines, not an Expresso machine so it was just ok.

Little small cafe super close to congress av. It has great food at decent and fair prices. Staff is super friendly and welcoming 🙏 The first time I went for breakfast and had the chorizo breakfast tacos and the Immune system cocoa (amazing and different). The second time I went for lunch and loved the beef fajita tacos and a lovely chocolate muffin. I really recommend this place if you want to enjoy nice food and lovely service

Lovely place. Staff is super chill, service is great, and food is delicious and super cheap. This is a place I’ll always try to stop by at for some breakfast tacos. Got the chorizo and a chilaquile tacos.

Delicious and very well-priced breakfast tacos, with excellent service and a free cookie for my first visit! Will definitely be back

Super friendly staff. Delicious food. Seating could be more comfortable and cozy but overall enjoyed the good and vibe.

It's an interesting route to get to this place - feels a little speakeasy like while trying to find it but well worth the weird journey. Amazing service- made to order burgers and some of the best tortilla soup I've ever had! Random food find but what a gem it was!!! Will return. The cookies - so soft and tasty!! Check it out you won't be disappointed.

Came in right before closing accidentally but they were super friendly and didn’t make us feel bad or rushed. Wraps were great and reasonably priced. Place is a little hidden down a staircase but worth looking for! Thanks from AZ.

Christine Markley

I had the Al Pastor taco and the veggie garden taco without egg. Both were delicious and it was plenty of food. Order a cookie to go! It is worth it.

Danica Fine

I’m in town for work and stopped by because it was nearby. What a great spot! The food was good, came out very quick, and was a great value. Plus the staff were super friendly. I’d go again!

Kadie Rodriguez

Amazing breakfast tacos! The Barnyard and Chipotle tacos were so good! The red and green salsas were on point as well! The service was speedy and the customer service is great! Would recommend to everyone and we will definitely come back!

Delicious breakfast tacos! They also had a solid variety of smoothies on the menu. I got the Arco Iris (sp?) and it was really good. As I was eating, I saw a lot of apparent regulars come through. Seems like they’ve got a nice community thing going

DOWNTOWN HIDDEN GEM. The only bad thing about this place is that it is not open every day! I work across the street and go here frequently and tell all my residents about it. Their matcha lattes, breakfast tacos, and lunch specials are so delicious and not to mention, so well priced. The owner and staff are incredibly friendly, and their cafe ambiance is nice- always playing a great playlist. I absolutely love it here! No doubt, worth your stop.

They have about 10 kinds of breakfast tacos. I tried three on corn tortillas. All of them were very good and the salsa was house made fresh. They make the tacos as you order them. The person who helped me at the front also offered me a free cookie because I was a first-time customer. He also seemed to know the regulars by name. They have good, strong dark coffee with refills included. And there was light aconstruction in the dining room when I was there. The prices slightly reasonable than other spots I've tried downtown.

Quick quality, no nonsense breakfast. It’s quiet too as it’s tucked down below an office building.. I had huevos rancheros and it was solid. If you’re traveling and you just wanna sit by yourself in a quiet place and get a good coffee and something filling this is it highly recommended

3 stars for the coffee. I was out hunting good coffee but Thistle probably is more a breakfast taco or lunch stop. I was excited to try the Immune System Cocoa, especially for the price, but ultimately the espresso was burned and the flavors were disappointing muted. I just couldn’t bring myself to finish it. The beautifully big and tempting blueberry muffin was sadly bland but perfectly sweet enough, but in the end not worth the calories. Should’ve had a taco.
