"Radio Coffee’s wood-covered space feels like a cozy cabin, with tons of seating, strong Stumptown coffee, and a huge beer selection (because a mid-day work break never hurt anyone). And if the “cabin” fills up, there’s almost always plenty of seating on the massive patio that wraps around the building—though you may have to share the space with some hungry grackles. Most importantly: there’s a location of Veracruz All Natural parked permanently outside. It’s the kind of place that you’ll be actually happy to camp out at all day." - nicolai mccrary, matthew jacobs
"Radio Coffee & Beer sells, as the name suggests, coffee and beer. The outside seating area is large and well spread out, but the best part might be the two food trucks parked alongside the patio. With Veracruz serving some of the best breakfast tacos in town and Dee Dee dishing out excellent Thai food, you may find yourself in the tricky (and possibly sticky) situation of deciding between one more migas tacos or an order of mango sticky rice." - nicolai mccrary, raphael brion
"Radio is the place to go for a nice selection of Austin-area beers, from St. Elmo to Hops and Grain (it has a second location in East Austin and a third in Rosewood). There are plenty of nearby food trucks, including Veracruz All Natural, to grab a bite from and enjoy on the large outdoor patio, which has covered and uncovered seating. Inside is a bit smaller and gives coffee shop vibes — if you’re thinking of working from home but with a beer and a coffee, this is the spot." - Nadia Chaudhury
"The South Lamar coffee shop and bar is popular for its triple threat of excellent coffee, great food trucks, and casual patio. Take your pick of lounging spots: the shaded outdoor space, the patio, or the grassy lawn. Good luck choosing between beloved taco truck Veracruz All Natural, excellent Thai truck Dee Dee, Shortwave Diner, and Michelin-recognized Briscuits for food. There is a second location in the McKinney neighborhood and a third in Rosewood which also have great patios." - Erin Russell
"South Austin’s cafe and bar features good coffee, lots of outdoor space, and a whole lot of parking. For food, there are famed food trucks: Veracruz All Natural (tacos), Dee Dee (Thai), and Briscuits (barbecue and biscuits). In the evenings, it has booze too, and live music. It has a second location in East Austin on Montopolis Drive." - Erin Russell
