Radio/East

Radio East feels like the quieter, more relaxed version of the original Radio Coffee & Beer. If you’ve ever been to the first one, you know it can get really busy, especially on weekends or when there’s live music. This one on the east side is way more chill. It’s a great place to go when you want good coffee without the crowds. There’s a big outdoor area with lots of shade and plenty of space to sit. It’s easy to find a quiet spot to read, journal, work, or just enjoy your drink. The vibe is still cool and welcoming, but not too loud or packed. It’s perfect if you’re looking for a slower pace. The coffee is just as good as the original, and there’s beer too if you’re in the mood. There are also food trucks here, and the ones I’ve tried have been really tasty. It’s the kind of place you can hang out for a while without feeling rushed. If you like the original Radio but want something a little calmer, Radio East is worth checking out. It’s cozy, friendly, and feels like a little hidden gem on the east side.

It’s no secret, I’m a true regular of Radio/South and big fan. Radio/East is the 2nd gem in the Radio family and it’s already a staple on the east side. Same unbeatable combo: top-notch coffee ☕️, chill vibes and on top - a killer outdoor stage that hosts live music almost nightly. Plenty of indoor/outdoor seating makes it perfect for remote work or meetups. The staff is super friendly and laid-back (shoutout to the crew! 🙌🏼). Veracruz 🌮 (Migas Originales, yay 😋), Shortwave (awesome burgers) and a chicken wings food trucks are on-site, all delicious. Early morning, day or night. Radio/East rocks!

Honestly, it's such a cool place! More of a coffee shop and bar rolled into one. Lots of outdoor seating, decent amount of indoor seating as well. The only thing I will mention is if you're looking for a consistent grab and go coffee shop or even a regular work/study spot, I personally wouldn't rely on this one. They have lots of events! Sometimes you can't go into the coffee shop and order unless you have a ticket for the show. The past 3 times I've come here, I haven’t been able to actually go inside and get a drink.

Great vibe, plenty of seating. It was a Sunday afternoon so I expected it to be even more packed. The coffee and matcha choices were awesome, I think I had a pineapple upside down latte. So cool, so different. Some good food truck options as well, with a Veracruz Tacos and Chicken Lollipop place. There was a cut off for the parking nearby, smaller cars only. Not a problem, just thought it was a bit strange. Also, they have concerts and take the fences down and have had 2,000 people there. Very cool. @ianofAustin approved!

3 Food trucks are parked outside for your foodie needs. Pet friendly and welcomed. ADA wheelchair accessible inside. Shaded outside plus a stage for live music. Great coffee and teas.

Review for RADIO/EAST I really like this location—it feels cozy and welcoming, with a great atmosphere to relax or get some work done. One big plus is the spacious parking lot, which makes it super convenient. If you’re hungry, there are food trucks on site. I tried one during my visit and thought the food was just okay, especially considering there were extra fees for mobile orders. That said, I’d definitely come back again for the coffee. It’s a solid spot overall!

This is such a great spot to work remotely or catch up with a friend. Typically has plenty of seating, even in busy days. The happy hour specials are fair, and the variety of rotating specialty drinks and cocktails is something to look forward to

Come early and knock out some work on your laptop or stay late for a live show. Radio east is a nook right off E. Ben White boulevard that offers great drinks, amazing coffee and a vibrant atmosphere.
