The Hideout Coffee House

A nice little coffee shop in the heart of downtown Austin. We stopped in for a little dessert and hot chocolate. While the hot chocolate was delicious and the cupcake and cheesecake were great, what stood out was the service of the young man behind the counter. He provided us with great service. He was friendly and went the extra mile with other customers as well. He offered information about relevant sites to see nearby.

During my stay at the Aloft and Element building, I discovered this coffee shop conveniently located next to Carolines. If you're in a hurry and find the coffee line at Aloft to be quite long, this coffee shop is an excellent alternative. I personally enjoyed their lattes on two separate occasions, and they consistently impressed me with their quality. My fellow travelers also gave high praise to the nitro coffee. The ambiance here is truly remarkable, with captivating wall paintings and a perfect atmosphere for hiding out and getting work done. It's a hidden gem worth visiting.

We tried 2 specialty house drinks, and both were delicious. The first was an iced hideout hazelnut with oat milk. It was so creamy and delicious. It was not super sweet and was very well balanced. A little sweeter was the iced raspberry riot with oat milk. It was also very refreshing and deliciously velvety in the mouth with a fruit forward pop of flavor that finishes in a delicate, lingering burst of sweetness.

Absolutely Excellent! Atmosphere in the morning was subtly festive and relaxed with folksy holiday music. Had the Hideout Hazelnut Latte before work (great quality and not too sweet!), with a Gluten Free coffee cake (yummy!). I came by for a hot tea in the evening. Customer service was excellent both in the morning and evening: Will absolutely come back the next time I'm in town. Thanks!

A wonderful hidden little gem. A nice relaxing atmosphere, some soft jazz music, great tea and latte. Had the bacon egg and cheese breakfast burrito and enjoyed every bite. Highly recommended for anyone wanting a nice casual relaxing bite to eat. The staff was very courteous and friendly. Worth the visit for sure.
