Great coffee(Stumptown Coffee Roasters from Portland, OR), great staff, and great breakfast tacos(Fresa’s) in a cool bike shop atmosphere.

I stumbled into this little gem based off of its convenient location, to where I was posted last Saturday. Oh-em-g in love. The service was so incredibly nice. The selection was mind blowing. very much looking forward to my next trip. Suffice it to say… I’d go out of my way to return just for the friendly workers. Thank you! Definitely left with a big smile on my face, and some delicious Kombucha.

BEST almond milk laté ever, super cool and friendly staff, lots of seating. Not too crowded. Great downtown location. My favorite coffee shop in Austin so far. I’ve been here 3 – 4 times over the past week and it’s consistently a great experience.

So this is my favorite coffee spot in town. They have excellent assortment of coffee and tea’s as well as smoothies and treats. Also they keep it pretty quiet in their for a coffee/bike shop! I’m also a fan of their staff typically inviting and fun.

Cute location with a bike shop within Good smoothies, but just not a lot of food options

One of the best! Great coffee, great service and phenomenal wifi. If you come on a good day expect some eye candy from the attached bike shop. You can go across the street and get sandwiches from royal blue grocery so this is practically my new office. Not a ton of outlets, but a pretty good number for the open space, garage atmosphere. Oh and did I mention they have a parking lot in downtown Austin? Stellar. You’ll find tons of Austinites coming in for meetings during the day. This place pulls a good crowd of intelligent, nice, interested people from the downtown offices. Very casual business meetings. Love the service here, always super friendly and nice.

I can not emphasize how much I love visiting this coffee shop. It is located inside of Mellow Johnny’s Bike Shop. Therefore, most visitors are cyclists. There are 3 sections with one section located in the bike shop and they ALLOW dogs! Simple menu of coffees, teas, and hot coco. You can order a few snacks or bites. Park near the store and pay for the max 3 hrs. But, I think they are cool about you parking in the private bike lot.

Listen, you don’t have to believe that the best place to get coffee in Austin is in a bike shop. It just is. Actually, it makes sense — lots of baristas are cyclists. They brew Stumptown, and they pull it right.

This place is a comfy coffee shop attached to a store and offers basics for coffees and nibbles. They have outdoor and indoor seating and allow pets on the patio. It’s a cool place to sit and work through emails or a quick coffee /catch up with a friend before heading out somewhere. Staff is friendly. They have breakfast Tacos, but I’ve definitely tasted better. I’d stick to their coffee and cookies.

LOVE the vibe! Parking lot was a total plus, I love this part of Austin, and as a student trying to study, I enjoyed a little bit of people watching inbetween. I’m not a biker, but the shop itself was neat, a little rugged/industrial/open ceilings. My kombucha and drip coffee was as good as any other place I’ve had in town!

Idk who this Juan Pelota guy is but he makes a damn good cup of coffee. I stumbled upon this place by accident when I was wandering downtown after finding out my favorite brunch spot had closed. Mourning its loss I decided to drown my 1st world sorrows in coffee but little did I know I was in for a treat. The place is clean, the staff is nice, and the cinnamon apple whatever else muffin is so good I punched a baby. I was initially taken aback by the $ 5 price tag on my vanilla soy latte but damn, take my money! Whatever coffee bean, drug, or unicorn tears they add to their beverages to makes them creamy and luxurious– I want it.

The lattes were great, cheaper than most places around downtown, and the service was just as great. The baristas are friendly and the pastries look really good! So far one of my favorite coffee shops downtown. It’s connected to a bike store and closes earlier than most places, but that’s ok!

I love hanging out here on Saturdays after visiting the Farmer’s Market on 4th St. They have a friendly staff and a delicious Hot Chocolate! Beware people and groups that use two or more tables to put their laptops, backpacks and other stuff. You may have to ask politely for them to use less room and be more sharing of the common space. The background music is at the right volume so you’re not bothered by it. Many cyclists will come by as this seems to be their pit stop downtown and where they socialize with the cyclist community. It’s awesome to see their engagement! Also enjoy the bike shop where the coffee shop is located at! I sure do!

Who knew a great coffee shop was hiding in a bike shop? I found one in Juan Perlota. I got a delicious Latte after viewing the board discussing the espresso used and the notes after tasting. My nephew and niece got smoothies. We enjoyed both. I enjoyed the environment, but I’m not sure it was as relaxing as some coffee shops. If you are a bike enthusiast, this would be like heaven. But, I’m not, so it was a lot to take in sitting instead of peddling.

Once you get past the sophomoric name and the bike-bro trappings, you’re left with pretty much everything you want from a coffee shop: comfortable seating(inside and out), friendly baristas, reliable WiFi and good coffee. They even have their own(free) parking lot, which is pretty much unheard of downtown these days. Watch out for those early closing times, though. This is definitely not a night spot.

Solid coffee, but it wasn’t amazing enough to have to deal with the crowd from all the bicyclists during the weekend(it’s too many people to have to keep dodging). They share the building with a bicycle shop(apparently co-owned by Lance Armstrong) and I believe it’s an open concept so you can walk back and forth between the two places. We came in around 11:30am on a Saturday, and Juan Pelota was super crowded with almost all bicyclists. However, the line wasn’t that long and it moved quickly, so I was able to get my Cold Brew($ 4.50, ) in less than 10 minutes. The cold brew was smooth and tasted good, but it was on the pricier side. I would come back on a day that was more calm, but wouldn’t go out of my way to be back.

This place looked nice from the outside but it definitely wasn’t great as a coffee shop overall. The staff are pretty nice, but it’s more a stop for the people coming in for the biking shop. Speaking of which, the smell of rubber from the bike shop makes enjoying your coffee a bit difficult. I also wasn’t a big fan of the cinnamon roll since it broke apart much too easily for one to eat — is the glaze supposed to be crunchy? Also, not really a big deal to me but worth noting to some — wifi is a bit slow.

Been hitting pelota since 2007. Ben turned me on to the cold brew cross with coffee and if I’m adventurous, add a double shot on top! Place has been renovated a few times for the better. Workers are top notch, and launch u into whatever u might get into. All around a solid joint.

Love their coffee and the bike store attached has a lot of inspiring work out accessories. For example I had an Americans with extra shot then bought some mild compression riding socks! Love the combination of good coffee, canine, and a fitness/bike store. The baristas are friendly if a bit shy and the seating area is pleasant enough. On a nice day one could enjoy the outdoor seating.
