"This espresso-focused coffee bar is heaven for hardcore coffee nerds around town. The rotating selections of beans are highlighted by simple and well-executed preparation. All four locations (this in Rosedale and the others in downtown, East Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard, Rock Rose, and far east Austin) feature clean and welcoming designs, as well as a great selection of tools to take home-brewing to the next level. Along with espresso drinks, there are beans, gallon cold brews, iced coffees, hot coffees, and alternative milks (almond, oat, soy). Takeout orders can be placed online or in person; there are indoor and outdoor areas." - Nadia Chaudhury, Erin Russell
"Since opening in Rosedale in 2010, Houndstooth has lived up to its name, creating a pattern of well-crafted shops across town. There are now five locations in Austin (and three in Dallas). The company takes its coffee seriously, which means people should expect high-quality iced lattes, cold brews, and iced coffee. Takeout orders can be placed online or in person; there are indoor and outdoor dine-in areas." - Eric Webb

"There are several locations of the coffee shop Houndstooth in Austin (and a few in Dallas). The one downtown is in the base of the Frost Bank Tower – it’s so tucked in you could easily miss it walking by. But people downtown know it’s there, and during peak hours it can get pretty busy and loud, so it’s not ideal for a long work session. They're also totally unafraid to blast old-school hip hop. There are pastries, lots of tea options, and Tacodeli tacos. Most importantly, you'll find that Houndstooth serves some of the best coffee you’ll find not just downtown, but in all of Austin. There's also wine and beer for when you need to chill out after drinking coffee all day." - Raphael Brion
"Houndstooth Cafe’s boozy location features a new day-long happy hour with different specials every day, including $8 cocktails and half-off wine by the bottle on Wednesdays." - Nadia Chaudhury
