Figure 8 Coffee Purveyors

The Vibe

You've got to check out Figure 8 Coffee Purveyors if you're in the neighborhood. It's a solid spot, consistently rated high at 4.7 stars, and definitely has that East Austin vibe without feeling overdone. They're known for their expertly pulled espresso drinks, especially the Gibraltar, and their pour-overs are always on point if you're looking to really taste the bean. Most people grab their coffee and head straight for the ample outdoor seating, which is a big draw, especially on a sunny morning. It gets pretty busy, particularly on weekends, so be prepared for a bit of a line, but it moves quickly. Parking can be a bit tight, mostly street parking around the residential blocks, but it’s worth the slight hassle for the quality coffee and relaxed atmosphere.
