Thorn & Bred Mercantile

Fun, spacious garden shop and cafe. It's right on Lockhart's main square. They have several tables and counter seats, a friendly welcoming atmosphere, and an extensive menu, particularly of coffees & teas. Free street parking is available around the square. We look forward to stopping by whenever we're in Lockhart.

Had a quick overnight stop in Lockhart and went here twice in two days. The food and drink selection were great and I love the build your own succulents station. The morning atmosphere was completely different than the First Friday crowd but the food was just as great. Definitely try the place is stopping through.

Grabbed a coffee and munchies while friends waited in line for Barbs. This place was a nice surprise to find. I love that there are great choices for the kids, but also mom & dad; beer wine ect. The plants are incredible and the backyard shouldn’t be skipped! They also had a changing station for the littles where other places in town did not. That was helpful and a reason for us to recommend and come back another time!

Great news spot for grabbing coffee and treats--their cardamon cinnamon rolls is 🏆🏆🏆! Excellent to-go meal options--fresh sandwiches, salads, soups, and even sushi rolls! Hot tip: Jo makes sandwiches featuring Barbs-BQ meats, so you can get yr gourmet BBQ fix, even when Barbs isn't open!! I was also impressed by their selection of plants and gifts! And be sure to check out the very peaceful back patio.

Obsessed with this place for so many reasons. The chef prepared food never disappoints, the coffee is the best in Lockhart, the atmosphere is welcoming and relaxing. Whether I’m in the mood for a glass of wine and a snack or need a spot to get some work done with a caffeine fix, this is my go-to. Pro-tip: get the PB, miso, chocolate chip cookie. You’re welcome.

Good coffee and vibes. Friendly dogs to hang too!

This is an amazing local coffee shop! The atmosphere is pleasant, with many plants all over the shop for a bright yet cozy vibe. They sell some of the plants, as well as pottery and other things. Matcha lattes are hit-or-miss (I'm not a coffee drinker, so I can't comment on the coffee), but this one was very good! If you get it, I recommend adding vanilla syrup. The barista is very talented and nice. The pastries are made by a baker in Austin, and I will let you know they are amazing! I had a ham and cheese croissant and it was super delicious. My partner had the lemon bread and said it was great as well. After eating and finishing our drinks, we were asked if we liked them (and another person was asked the same). This shows they care what customers think of their products. The bathroom is clean, which is always a plus. It is a single-person bathroom. And this business is LGBT friendly. Overall, 5 stars.

The BEST COFFEE in town! great staff and a good place to work online or to meet up with friends. All their food is homemade, fresh and high quality! I love to just sit here and come in on a weekday for a coffee (to go). This place is so so good, I'll come back for sure!
