Great drinks, lovely staff, spacious and good vibes. I love their salted caramel latte both iced and hot!

Feels like family. The staff was kind and friendly, specially Alonso, who explained all the extraordinary and unique sweet bread pieces they have. My “most go” when in Austin.

I love their croissant sandwich and coffee. (I order it quite often) The employees are super friendly and sweet as well! I'm not sure which barista drew this on my cup, but they are for sure the coolest person working there. It was so cute it made my day; I had to write a review. They somehow magically guessed I love this alien cat thing

Nice place, tasty coffee with a nice variety of choices, and lots of seating. Only issue is parking..it gets a bit hard to find a spot sometimes. Staff is very nice and polite.

After breakfast I saw this place and thought we would try it, so glad we did! It has a great atmosphere, the upfront parking situation said “10 min. parking only” so we didn’t stay inside long, but it was cozy! Lots of seating, and tables if you want to study or do some work. I got the Honey Luv latte with honey 🍯 cinnamon and ginger, it was delicious! ( I asked if they could go light on the honey, and they were happy to accommodate!) Friendly, warm staff, great set up to add cream, sugar, etc., equipped with to-go lids, paper sleeves, napkins, etc. I instantly regretted parking in the 10 min. spot, because it was such a great vibe I wanted to stay!

Didn’t really like the place the first time I came in as I ordered the Thai Coffee and it was different from what I’ve had before (too much spice but it’s subjective). Decided to give it another try and ordered the Nutty Irishman and Mocha through Grub Hub, and those drinks were so good. Long story short, the Nutty Irishman is now one of my favorite drinks here. I’ve also tried their Thai Tea which is very good as it’s not too sweet like other places, and the affogato is also very yummy. The decorations are very cute, too. Will definitely come back.

Great shop with good food offerings as well. I ordered a green tea matcha and I wish it was sweetened already but I guess I needed to ask, I don't go out for coffee much but this place has a nice vibe. Just wish they had more comfortable seating inside.

Christina Simmons

Great spot to cozy up w a friend or book. Seemed like great community hang out. I enjoyed a hummus bento and the scones (cinnamon and chocolate chip) were delicious. I had an iced horchata, which was a little sweet for my liking- but I’ll definitely stop by here again.

Monkey Nest Coffee offers a solid coffee experience. We tried the Maha Latte, which was excellent - rich, flavorful, and not overly sweet. The café has its own distinct atmosphere, and it’s clear that many people use it as a workspace. The setup is well-suited for that, with comfortable seating, quiet background music, and a variety of different areas to settle in. Despite the relatively standard layout of the space, they’ve done a great job dividing it into different zones - there are cozy couches, tables, and even a separate enclosed room where a training session was taking place during our visit. This adds to the versatility of the space, making it welcoming for both casual customers and those needing a spot to focus. The one downside for me was the counter and ordering setup, which felt very much like something from a large coffee chain. The display case is filled with pre-made sandwiches wrapped in paper and foil, along with plastic containers of pre-assembled meals. While practical, it takes away from the charm and personality that makes independent coffee shops special. This kind of setup feels impersonal and is something that could be improved to create a more inviting experience. That said, the coffee and overall atmosphere make Monkey Nest a great place to visit, whether you’re looking to work, meet friends, or just enjoy a well-crafted drink.

Decent ambiance with a fun idea for a business. The coffee and bakery items were good, but not the best we've had in Austin.

Good coffee, welcoming staff, and a nice space to sit and enjoy. However, we came at a busy time on a Saturday morning, so it was quite busy and loud, and the service took longer than expected. I…

Cool atmosphere, service was terrible. Older man in front was very rude to me and my friend, after we waited 10 minutes for a to go order of a PRE made breakfast taco that they just had to warm up.…

Writing a review because this is a nice vibey place but sadly the coffee is really watered down. My cold brew tasted like water and the large Americano only comes with 2 shots when the standard is usually 4 with 3 minimum for a large. I think if you like sugary drinks this may be a place for you but not for strong bold coffee drinkers like myself.

I didn't try the food so I can't say much. The staffs were friendly. I heard they were famous for their lavender latte. I realized there was a room in the end where it's more quiet. It can get noisy where people talk really loud. I couldn't really focus. (I was studying). The lighting was not good for studying as well in my opinion. If you are going there for coffee it's good!

I'm giving this coffee shop and Cafe mixed reviews. The honey luv oatmilk iced latte (honey, cinnamon, ginger) was delicious. The espresso was rich. My Monkey Nest Special sandwich was tasty (grilled bread, honey mustard chicken salad with capers, tomatoes,cranberries, and red onion). Not the best I've ever had, but it's quite good. The mixed part of my review is that the staff was not very friendly and kind of ignored me for some time before I could order. I was the only person at the register! They didn't even acknowledge me! Another negative is that the cafe was a bit dirty in spots; the cleanliness could have been improved. Not so much so that I walked out, but, it made me question my choice a bit. The atmosphere inside is nice with a lot of seating, tables, and places to plug in, read a book, or work. The outdoor patio was not clean or attractive, and they are on a busy road, so it's very loud. Would I go again if I lived here, maybe.

The coffee and beverages here are great. I want to love their food but I can't. I've had their spinach quiche a couple of times and the quiche itself seemed ok, but what turned me off was the way it smelled. It smelled like some kind of cleaning product and leached into the food taste experience. Happend with some breakfast tacos i've ordered as well. I love spinach quiche too in general and I really want to love/like their, but I cannot :( I'm scared to try other foods to get the same experience. But drinks are great!

Lisbett Boussart

The scones taste like erasers please get scones from an actual bakery. The bacon and cheese croissant used to be better and worth the $12 also it used to come with berries!! There wasn’t a lot of open seating due to people working which is fine just fyi

Not sure how this place got so many good reviews. As you can see in my picture that they barely put any espresso in their drinks and the customer service was awful! The guy that took our order was extremely cold and more interested in talking to his coworkers than taking our order. Will never come back!
