"Kyoko describes itself as “Austin’s cutest coffee,” and after a quick glimpse at the retrofitted Honda microvan that the shop operates out of in Highland, it’s hard not to agree. You’ll find all the classic espresso-based drinks and teas on the menu, but the real reason to come here is the signature Asian-inspired beverages like the Kyoko Dreams of Ube—a creamy, not-too-sweet tea with a bit of purple yam syrup that adds nuttiness and a lilac tint. Just keep in mind that this is a one-person, outdoor operation, so order online ahead of time if you’re in a rush, or get comfy on one of the picnic tables nearby." - nicolai mccrary, matthew jacobs

"Operating out of a cute retrofitted Japanese microvan, Kyoko is a small coffee shop set up in a parking lot in Highland. You’ll find all the classic espresso-based drinks here, but the real standouts are the signature menu of Japanese-inspired beverages, including ones with miso, ube, and yuzu." - nicolai mccrary, matthew jacobs
"This cute Japanese-inspired coffee truck (if one can call a Honda van a truck) describes itself as “a whole vibe,” and more than lives up to the promise. Some coffees have wacky names like Cause of Death and Kyoko Dreams of Ube. It also offers left-of-center options like Miso Pironcillo Umai and Umami Mocha, plus standard drinks like a cortado, cappuccino, and lattes. It also has golden and ube milk to spike that cuppa with something different and sweet little cookies for a treat. Visit it at the Highland Collective." - Erin Russell
