The Scarbrough cafe & lounge

The Scarbrough Cafe & Lounge Review Delicious Cuban food with a charming retro-style decor. It’s a semi-self-service setup where you order at the counter, which keeps things casual. I had read about their Reuben crêpe in reviews, but unfortunately, it wasn’t on the menu when I visited, which was a bit disappointing. Still, the overall experience was good, and I’d come back to try more of their dishes. 4 stars.

I recently had a unique brunch experience in what looks like a super sus location. My wife’s friend recommended this spot, and at first glance, I was skeptical—it’s located in the lobby of a professional building, which looks super weird from the outside. But don't let appearances fool you; this place is a hidden gem! Once inside, the atmosphere completely transforms. The old school decor provides a cozy and welcoming vibe, which was a pleasant surprise. The brunch menu offered a fantastic variety of dishes, all beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. Great coffee options, whether you're a coffee aficionado or just need a caffeine fix, this place won’t disappoint. Overall, despite its unconventional location, this brunch spot delivers an exceptional dining experience. If you're looking for a unique place with great food and coffee, this is definitely worth checking out!

The food is delicious, and the setting is unique, but the service is a bit slow. The restaurant is located in the lobby of the Scarbrough Building. It’s a small space, with only around eight tables and a tiny kitchen behind the counter. It’s a bit hard to locate from outside. There’s no big sign on the window indicating the restaurant’s name, just a plastic A-frame sign outside the building’s doors. When I got there, four of the eight tables were empty but the dirty dishes had not yet been cleared. It took close to 10 minutes for the tables to be bused. Because the kitchen is so small, I’d recommend going up to the counter to order as soon as you get there. I believe you can also place your order online using the QR code on the table, but I didn’t try that method. I ordered the lox n found, a toasted croissant roll with smoked salmon, avocado, dill ricotta, arugula, onion, and capers. The menu says it also comes with a side of roasted potatoes, but mine didn’t come with that. The sandwich was delicious and filling, so I definitely didn’t need them, but I do feel like I didn’t get what I paid for.

This place is awesome!! Not only are the crepes exquisite, but the other options such as the avocado toast, croissants and parfait were just as succulent! We had a couple of cocktails as well and they were just as delicious as the food! Good price point, good value, good service, good location… home run!

Awesome vibe with delicious food for breakfast or lunch. Chef Marco and his Mom opened this right before Covid hit and have survived the commercial tenancy collapse in downtown…All due to the fresh blend of great food and stellar service. Caprese and Power-Up crepes had wonderfully fresh ingredients and presentation. Perfectly sweet Iced caramel latte was served in a mason jar if you’re dining in. Try the pickled potatoes too as they put a uniquely crisp and tasty spin on spuds. Quaint street seating for when it’s shady in the morning.

Our first time here, I won't be back, The food and service didn't live up to expectations. Not recommended any food here 😕 It has a nice thing here😀, that s free water 🙂 If no water may be zero star. The food looked good in the review pictures and on the in the restaurant. I ordered crepes. They served cold food, which is normal, not special or yummy like their rating of 4.8 stars. They were also out of coffee. That"s ok Request for some hot sauce, they said they will bring to me at table. It never came...Nothing!!! Requested again at Bar. Girl said that they were out. Dont have it. OMG, why make me wait before 😮‍💨 We waited for our food fit almost 1 hour We sat outside because the inside saying area was really noisy. And they have no service for any wheel chair 🅿️ Parking: ✅️ street parking ♿ Wheelchair Accessibility: ⛔️ ♿ 🅿️ Wheelchair Parking: ⛔️ ♿ 🚻 Wheelchair WC: ⛔️ 📶 Wifi: ❌️ 💳 Debit / Credit Card: ✅️ 📱Juice/ myT: ✅️

This place is so cute and comfortable, we loved it. The crepes are so so delicious, you can tell everything was very well thought out and made with love. Not to mention they have a sweet crepe brûlée the recipe is 400yrs old. The owners mom told us sweet lady. My favorite savory crepe was eddy’s special… omg I wanted to kiss the cook and and anyone who was involved in this delicious dish. This place is like no other crepe place in Austin it’s definitely worth the visit.

This was such a great breakfast! The gorgeous location and original decor made me swoon, and the crepes were to die for! It’s a breakfast, brunch and lunch destination you need to experience for yourself. The staff were lovely and welcoming too, and even helped us take a few pics before we left!
