Coffee is the largest category on this site and the one where neighborhood matters most. Austin’s cafes cluster hard: East Austin, the Domain and Bouldin Creek each have ten or more, while Barton Hills and Travis Heights have almost none inside their radius because their residents walk to the next district over.

What counts as coffee here is simple and mechanical: any place tagged as a cafe in OpenStreetMap inside one of our twelve districts. That catches specialty roasters, neighborhood coffee bars, the coffee-and-beer hybrids Austin does a lot of, and the occasional bakery that mappers filed as a cafe. It does not catch coffee served at restaurants or bars, and it does not catch chains that mappers never added. Chains we did find are marked and listed after the independents.

We do not publish hours, prices or ratings. Every listing links to its OSM record and, where mappers recorded one, the official site.
