Cenote

"Keeping the East Side caffeinated and fed, Cenote is a great spot to get some work done outside, people watch, and enjoy breakfast food much better than anything you’d expect from a typical coffee shop. Wash it down with one of the green juices from the fridge and you’ve officially started your day off “healthy.”" - raphael brion, nicolai mccrary, matthew jacobs

"A sturdy breakfast sandwich can be found at Cenote with eggs and cheese between ciabatta bread or a croissant, topped with bacon, chorizo, turkey, or avocado. Takeout orders can be placed online, and there are indoor and outdoor dine-in services." - Nadia Chaudhury, Erin Russell

"Busty’s is taking over what had been the second location of Austin cafe Cenote, which opened in 2017 and closed in 2022." - Nadia Chaudhury

"Sometimes the main draw of a coffee shop isn’t actually the coffee itself, no matter how good that is. So much of what we love about Cenote—which happens to serve wonderful coffee—has to do with the homey environment and great food. There’s an outstanding breakfast burrito and a delicious Cubano for lunch (which you should eat outside). It’s an all-day cafe, so after staring at your laptop all day and getting all jittery because you drank a gigantic cold brew, you can switch modes and drink some local draft beer with your friends." - Raphael Brion

"There’s more than just great coffee at this neighborhood spot. Breakfast tacos, sandwiches, and a strong selection of beer and coffee are available on the patio or inside the bright blue cafe. Bonus: the building also houses Paper Route Bakery, with incredible cakes by the slice. Takeout orders can be placed online. The cafe is open for indoor and outdoor services." - Erin Russell
