Tiny Grocer / SOCO

This is a great grocery store with unique products everywhere and wonderful prepared foods in the back. The employees are very friendly and knowledgeable. There is simply no other place like it! Good breakfast burrito and coffee stop, too.

French bistro with simple menu done right. I'm no chef but all the dishes were executed perfectly. Makes me want to live in this neighborhood.

Tonight we went by to grab dessert. We didn’t know they were about to close. A worker walked by us rudely and said excuse me a few times looking like he was in a hurry. Then I noticed the lights off in one area so I told my partner to bring his items to check out. I go up to register and two gentleman staff were obviously unhappy. I asked “is there something wrong?l he says “yes there is we closed at 8!” I said okay well I didn’t know. I told my partner to hurry up from the back since we are making them upset. Last time we came in we spent $380. I guess as aren’t worthy of them staying a few minutes past 8 to buy ridiculously over priced cupcakes. This is the attitude that Austin is now being criticized for. Makes me just want to go to happy Trader Joe’s, where they ask me what I’m cooking for dinner with a smile on their face. I can’t imagine being on busy south Congress that everybody is out of the store immediately when they close. I hope the owner teaches them some class.

Great grocery store Incredibly curated Delos items.. the staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Very friendly. The Deli in back is a Super Plus. I’m glad this business is here; and you will too.

Friendly staff and excellent service. Steph the owner is awesome in helping with her favorite shopping recommendations. Note it’s a small grocery shop so don’t expect you see everything you want like your big box grocery store. These items she picks are curated and the best. Even some local companies like Fronks, Chop Chop, Curcuma just to name a few.

Cute market with an upscale high quality selection of goods. The prices are higher than a grocery store or pharmacy. They have a deli with salads and pastries as well as a coffee bar.

Nice small grocery store and quick pickup restaurant . It’s have all organic products being sold. Earlier the options of cheese and stuff use to be good. Recently when I visited it was but not that huge.

Best egg salad sandwich I’ve ever had! I had never been or ordered but on a whim, I ordered this particular sandwich to be delivered. I fell in love, it’s so fresh & delicious. It was put together so neatly & wrapped in brown paper. I also would like to call attention to the nice staff. I was having issues ordering again so I called to inquire about the egg salad. Jesse let me know they still had some & I let her know I was having issues. So she offered to take an order for me for pick up. Lovely store on south Congress, I will definitely be going back to explore all it has to offer soon.

I was walking by SoCo and I stumbled upon this gym. I was super hungry for something easy and at the back of the store is a little bakery with home cooked style meals. I bought some wine, meat, other eclectic items, and a slice of the casserole to sit outside to scarf down something quick and be on my merry way. I took a bite (it wasn't warmed up) and that immediately tasted like heaven. The flavour and spices were perfect and the temperature of the food did not matter. I couldn't stop eating even if I was full. I did not know what came over me.

This spot was so cute and perfect to grab a quick bite while you're shopping! We were hungry but didn't want to sit for a full service meal, so we dipped in here to grab a quick bite from the deli. The service at the deli was a little slow (we waited for 10-15 min), but the food was delicious and the store itself was very cute and fun to look around. The staff were incredibly kind and the little outdoor bar was perfect for quickly eating before getting back on our way. Will definitely stop here again!

I found this place on Yelp and wanted a quick bite to eat since I didn't have much time to walk around South Congress. I got the Italian Sub and a Vanilla Latte. Be prepared to wait some for the food, they seem to get a lot of online orders. I just looked around the store which was cute with lots of unique products. The sandwich was delicious and super filling. The latte was alright nothing crazy. I sat in the seating area they have outside of the store

Wow! If you haven't been here yet, you're missing out. Their breakfast options are fantastic! Today was our first time eating here, but it definitely won't be our last! We tried the breakfast biscuit sandwich (bacon, egg, cheddar cheese, on a biscuit) and honestly feel it might be the best breakfast biscuit sandwich in Austin. It was that good! The everything bagel w/ cream cheese was perfect. The salmon w/ lox on a salt bagel was fantastic, as well. The lox bagel was a bit on the messy side, but if you're in good company, it doesn't really matter.

Based on recent developments, the second location will be larger and also have a French themed restaurant inside called Bureau de Poste (French for post office) with former Top Chef contestant Jo Chan as chef. As one of the world's biggest Francophiles, I can't wait until it's all up and running. I was impressed by the products currently available in the current market like some interesting looking cheeses, wines and charcuterie.

Austin, TX. Great place to get a latte on Congress Ave. the espresso is rich and bold and the froth is steamed perfectly. Of the choices available on Congress, this is my favorite. While coffee is brewing we ordered sandwiches for lunch which turned out to be delicious. Made with organic and local ingredients including the meats. I really liked how they grill the bacon for each order, not precook it and put it in a pile. We could not resist the array of pastries and desserts baked on the premises, all very well made. I also grabbed a few kombuchas out of the fridge but they don't stock the cream on top Greek yogurt that I like. A daily stop in the morning when in Austin.

Everything about this TinyGrocer is charming! Everyone was super friendly and helpful in the store. I am thoroughly impressed that a such a small space has everything you could need. Their produce was fresh, and they have such a great assortment of local food products. I could spend hours perusing the housewares. It's the perfect spot to hit up before a dinner or birthday party for a good bottle of wine (or any number of na options) and a cool gift. They even have to go frozé out the window. We were so impressed with how good the food looked we ordered sandwiches and side salads. We had the BLT and the Sicilian. They did not disappoint! The loaded baked potato salad was the perfect sides to go with.

Fails to meet the standards of what a "cute, trendy, Erewhon wannabee" should strive for. Mainly due to the fact that they have zero organic produce options and their kitchen made products use seed oils. A very "lipstick on a pig" strategy. Know your market, understand the health risks associated to pesticides and do better.

I've been wondering about this place ever since I first discovered it online during the pandemic. I was in the area recently and decided to pop in for an iced coffee. What an amazing little shop! Very friendly staff working here who were very welcoming. I did a quick lap around the store to see what types of items they offered. As others have mentioned, they have very high-quality grocery items that you would find at someplace like Whole Foods or Wheatsville. A curated selection of locally/regionally sourced organic produce, excellent coffee selection from local coffee merchants, and lots of novelty items like Goo Goo Clusters and Gin Gins. They also have a small deli area with fresh made salads and sandwiches and other items that look fantastic. The store reminded me somewhat of the Royal Blue Grocery stores, but this is more compact and yet stocked with much more inventory. If I lived near here I'd be in here all the time. Oh, and the cold brew is fantastic!

I started following TINYGROCER on Instagram when I saw an Austin travel page post it. Mother's Day weekend I had to meet my sister in Austin to get my mom so of course my sister and I had already made plans to hit them up and see what they were all about. It is the CUTEST little grocery store ever! The outside gives you the feeling of being somewhere on the islands, clean, crisp, lots of plants. We were immediately greeted when we walked in and I asked permission to take some pictures as I shopped and I was give freedom to take pics and videos. They have a great selection of gourmet and unique snacks, ingredients, coffees, and prepared foods. It is definitely not the place to stop and do your weekly groceries but it's great when you are staying at an ABNB or boutique hotel and need to pick up some fun snacks. They are also great for finding some unique gourmet items to prepare a special meal. There is a great selection of wines from around the world and local Austin beers, ciders, and IPA's. It's a great place to purchase goods that are locally owned and made too! I am 100% for supported small and local business. Walking down the isles you will find unique chips, one-of-a-kind dried meats, and beautiful aromatic spices. Keep in mind this is a specialty store, so you will not find bargain store prices, but the quality and uniqueness of the items come with an equally unique price. I filled up my basket with a sparkling wine, canned rain water, and some fun snacks for my drive back to San Antonio. So next time you are in Austin, or if you live in Austin, stop by and see what fun finds you come across! Everyone was super friendly, I love it!

I took my two closest friends here to get a quick bite to eat and a bottle of wine. Both of my friends are bilingual and were primarily speaking Spanish while in the store. When they came up to check out the female cashier with a blue cast on her right hand came behind their cashier and said "have you ever seen Alvin and the chipmunks" then giggles and she looked both my friends both up and down. My friends replied in English "yes, I have." I've never seen someone be so blatantly disrespectful and racist.

First time ever coming In today for a friend. Came in with two Bilingual ladies to pickup some wine. I understand we're of a different dialect and higher pitched but... as we were checking out. A different worker came up to our cashier and looked at us and asked them if they've ever seen Alvin and the chipmunks....... Holy hell. Fuck this place.

Recently pulled into the Tiny Grocer for what I thought would be a quick trip but wasn't. We came on a whim to avoid brunch lines next door. The service at the deli counter was unpleasant and awkward. However our coffee service at the coffee bar was amazing and coffee was yummy. The overall ambiance of this bodega was top notch - a little of everything located inside. I would have given it five stars had it not been for the crazy long wait and stares from staff. I will revisit and update post in the upcoming months.

I have walked past this gem 100x before venturing in and was incredibly impressed with my accidental visit. All items are artisanal and clearly hand selected. The displays and organization are incredibly thoughtful, including the music selection. Most importantly is how much is packed into this tiny place including a coffee shop (with a takeout window) and a deli in the back, which is easy to miss, so please do not! After a screaming endorsement by one of the employees I ordered the Sicilian Hoagie. Being from Philadelphia, I was skeptical of the "hoagie" terminology being a gimmick. I took this beast home and had my mind blown. This Sicilian can fuck! I would go as far as calling it the best sandwich in Austin.

Danced in the store because I felt so good in here. Wonderful salads, and extensive and rare grocery offerings. Love that about this place. Great coffee and even better service. Thank you for feeding me so well today!

So cute, so cool, so tiny! I'd compare it to a miniature Whole Foods. There's all the staples you'd need to make any meal plus gourmet selections, fresh produce, dairy section, small deli. Many products are in smaller packages which is great for someone cooking for one. Prices are reasonable considering the locale. I'm sure if I lived off of SoCo I would come here often, but not sure if I could do all of my shopping here. Would return

AWESOME breakfast sandwich. Every element was clearly thought out and executed with care; the biscuit was tender and flavorful, the egg was fried a perfect "over medium" so the yolk was still a little soft, the bacon was thick and crunchy, and the aged cheddar was melted and gooey. This is not your average grab-and-go breakfast sandwich, it deserves to be savored so I recommend snagging a seat on their small sidewalk patio to watch the world go by as you enjoy your treat!

What a great grocery store. High end for the new South Congress. Lots of fresh salads and protein and prepared food to grab and go. Range of organic products and foreign brands also. Good range of sweets and snacks for gifts. Also mini size toiletries for travels or to freshen up. Really friendly service

They've got a low key killer breakfast line up AND fresh sandwiches for days. Their coffee game is also superb!

I'm a huge fan of tiny fancy grocery stores like this. You couldn't get everything you need grocery wise here (or if you did you'd spend a zillion dollars) but it's always fun to come in and buy a few random fancy things. I got some booch, spicy peanut butter, and sausage. I also got to chat with the owner who is also from the Bay Area. Super nice person! Also, the "hold me closer tiny grocer" sign is legitimately funny.

My favorite grocer is Tiny Grocers. It has everything I am looking for and things I have always wished of finding. I love you, TG.

Nothing makes me more excited than small, curated specialty stores like this. Tiny Grocer is the BEST! Great wine selection, awesome local products and specialty goods, and an amazing prepared foods section as well. The staff is always friendly and helpful, too. My absolute favorite store in Austin

We stumbled upon this cute store while on a stroll down Congress Av. It's definitely not your everyday grocery store since it's super upscale. A lot of the items are unique but they have staples, like garlic, onion, milk etc. I think they also have a coffee shop on the side but I didn't get to try that. The employees are friendly too! Will be happy to come back when I get the chance!

Amazingly curated, speciality grocery store. The closest thing you'll find to Erewhon in Austin. Highly recommend. Cute little gift section as well. Staff is so sweet as well and always has the best recs!

Great little store with a surprisingly good selection. The staff were super nice (helped hold the door open for me to enter with a stroller). They have a cafe with pastries and make a delicious matcha latte.

Excellently curated gourmet & sustainable products with great gluten-free & food-sensitivity selection packed into a compact, easy-to-navigate tiny grocer!

Amazing, amazing products. You can stroll in and grab some Spanish marinated octopus, local triple crème brie, fresh bread, and bottle of skin contact wine and have a picnic wherever. Absolutely love the variety and quality. You'll spend a pretty penny that's for sure, but this is the perfect spot for some special items.

The breakfast sandwiches and staff are top notch. Specifically a big fan of the salt bagel and lox, and the biscuit, but you can't go wrong.

I am so impressed with the selection and the amount that they were able to fit in such a small space. They have all your basics plus home goods, a deli, succulents out front, a window that you can purchase coffee and self serve ice cream among other things. Super cute!

The guy working here recommended a 2018 Mendocino zin that was HEAVILY smoke-tainted from the fires that happened that year. Really sold it hard, telling us it was "very different and interesting". It was even called 'Smoke and Mirrors'. It was AWFUL, not drinkable and was $27. Like a mezcal level of smokiness. Definitely not what a wine should be. New name should be 'Smoke and more smoke'.

There is no comparison between this tiny grocery store to any other stores. The owner's customer service is magical. Her passion illuminates the store with carefully selected high quality products. I realize what I enjoy most is not only getting good quality groceries such as fresh lettuce, bread, deli meats, cheese and some Japanese ingredients (I was born and raised in Japan) but also the experience ....walking into a small space with an incredible energy what makes me feel a part of a community that I almost forgot that I used to have long time ago in my native country yet feeling love and good vibes of SoCo district in Austin.

Cute litte store! I didn't buy anything other than a succulent and a coffee but wanted to just walk around and it looks like it has great options! I definitely will be back for more coffee and to pick up some yummy little snacks!

Friendly staff and owner Steph is awesome. Delicious treats and fun finds. Great coffee. Made me happy to pop in there this morning. A tiny jewel of a place on South Congress. Grab an iced coffee and stroll down the street with the Capital building in view.

I just wanted to share that I love this place!! I moved to the area recently and have been walking by for coffee pretty regularly. The people are so so nice, and the coffee is honestly some of the best I've had in Austin. I love being able to order from the window without having to go inside at all, though it's also fun to drop in and check out the little store inside. I'd highly recommend, this is the best coffee on South Congress for sure!

The cutest, most well curated selection I've seen! And the East side grilled cheese was fantastic

Great little spot. Awesome selection of items. Really good food at the deli too. Walk up window for coffee, pastries and soft serve outside as well.
