“ 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. ”
“ Starving after a medical appointment and ducked into the Hideout for nourishment and respite. Had THE BEST HAM/GRILLED SWISS SANDWICH WITH HONEY. The ham had no slivers of fat. All succulent ham. And a chaser of fresh lemonade. The staff is sweeter than Texas tea. Jazzy relaxing Christmas instrumental music accented dangling lights . A totally peaceful vibe. If you are at Aloft Downtown, exit front door. Hang a left 1 minute away on Congress. Pass 7-11 and a few steps away on left, The Hideout. My new hang out. A variety of sandwiches/drinks/coffee. Sit on a stool and watch Austinites and visitors walk by. Or grab a cozy table and forget the rat race. ”
“ This place has a really cozy vibe to it, they’re usually selling art that’s up on the walls. The glass windows add a nice bright feel feeling to the space. Last week I tried their iced Almond Joy which is has coconut and almond mocha. It was so good I wasn’t expecting the combination of the flavors to taste that good. The coffee is also well balanced, this is coming from a coffee connoisseur. They also have lots of sweet and savory food options. Try it out! ”
“ Good menu, decent pastries, prices are okay but coffee is quality. Good location as well. Lots of sitting area and solid WiFi. ”
“ I visited Hideout Coffee and ordered their Almond Joy iced latte and an everything bagel with chive cream cheese. Their iced latte was delicious but not anything too special. I did however really enjoy their everything bagel with chive cream cheese. The chive cream cheese they used had actual pieces of fresh chives mixed in and it was very fresh and delicious. The coffee shop had a cool and chill vibe, and the staff were friendly. Thank you ”
