"Longtime Austin cafe Thunderbird Coffee is closing in the Cherrywood neighborhood later this year. Its last day of service at 2200 Manor Road will be on Sunday, December 17. The coffee shop is shuttering because of the 'changing business landscape', according to the release shared by founder and owner Ryan McElroy. He cites the pandemic has having a big impact and that 'sadly, the business has never really bounced back and now is in a position where it can’t sustainably move forward'. Thunderbird was known as one of the first third-wave coffee shops (focusing on high-quality products) in Austin. It serves coffee and espresso drinks made using beans from Austin-based roasters Wild Gift, as well as Quack’s pastries, breakfast tacos, sandwiches, and teas." - Nadia Chaudhury
