1886 Café & Bakery

“Good breakfast, good coffee, beautiful interior and friendly staff.”

My friends and I stopped by at this bakery while we were exploring Austin during my bestie’s bachelorette trip. It is such a cute place to stop by to sit and hang out. It is attached to this amazingly beautiful hotel and has all the beautiful vibes of it. I got a classic croissant which was buttery, flaky, and had a little sweetness on top which we all loved. A little extra salt would have been nice, but otherwise the texture and flavor were amazing. Next time I’ll make sure to get a picture of the pastries before they’re eaten! Such a fun little stop!

Highly recommended! 1886 Café & Bakery ended up being my favorite stop in my TEXAS road trip. Located inside a beautiful historic hotel, the setting alone is worth the visit. Elegant, warm, and full of character.

The biggest surprise was the food: simple presentation, but incredible flavor, easily some of the best I had in Texas. High

Beautiful building with delicious cafe inside. The construction happening in the next room made for an unenjoyable experience, but the restaurant couldn’t control that. Food was great pictured is huevos rancheros on corn tortilla and omelette off their breakfast menu. Potatoes had a green salsa that was excellent and they were cooked nice and crunchy. Would go back.

Visiting from Seattle, I’m honestly a bit spoiled when it comes to coffee, so my expectations were… high. But this place surprised me in the best way. The chai latte was genuinely good, not flat, not overly sugary, but a really nice balance of sweet and spice, with actual depth to it. What stayed with me the most though is the space itself. It feels like stepping into an old European café with a bit of American historic charm. High ceilings with warm wood panels, arched openings, classic tile floors, and that beautiful stained glass detail at the entrance. Even the wallpaper feels intentiona
