First time at the Greater Goods Coffee Roaster and my experience was great! We ordered a hot latte and a brewed coffee - both were good and their latte art was impeccable.
We got to the coffee shop on a Saturday afternoon. It was super busy but we were able to find a seat and the wait time was not long at all although there was a line in front of the counter.
We spent about 2 hours in the store working in our laptop. It was comfy but sometimes it gets a little loud. Overall 4/5. Coffee 4/5. Interior 3/5.
Greater Goods are championing and nurturing the specialty coffee scene in Austin, which I hugely appreciate! They really care about coffee, and provide best in class specialty coffee, paying attention to detail at every aspect of the process, from reverse osmosis filtered water, to a wide range of SCA 80+ scored coffees from different regions and varietals, lightly roasted and served as pour overs, cold brews and a variety of espresso drinks. On top of all that, they have a dedicated training space to help educate the public (and their own baristas) on really smelling and tasting the differences between all of those amazing coffees, offering reasonably priced taste development classes and cupping exercises. Highly recommend for anyone who really wants to taste the flavours of specialty coffee!
This cafe easily became my favorite spot in Austin. Hip and modern interior and real good coffee! I had nice and chill Saturday morning 😎

Great coffee, cool ambiance. There are really cool coffee bags to take home if you're into good coffee. Ample parking spots available as well.
The only drawback is that it is really crowded and service can be slow at times.
So busy! I'd planned to sit an enjoy a cup of coffee "for here" but couldn't find a parking spot or a table, so instead I ordered our coffees to-go while my fiance waited in the car. I suppose that's a testament to the great coffee + pastries! I enjoyed both, and would make this my go-to spot if I were a local.
