Caffe Aragona - Austin

This is probably the best coffee place on Congress, and it's certainly the best place to grab a quick bite. They do salads, sweet and savory croissants, gelato, and more. Lunch specials as well!

On my way to Starbucks and decided to try out a new place. Glad I did! I recommend the ham and cheese croissant.

I absolutely love this café... Great downtown atmosphere and just a block away from the state Capital. The food as you can see is super delicious and fresh!Got the lox bagel, it was pretty quick which I was happy about. The staff seemed friendly enough

This is really a great place to stop by whenever you get the chance. The food (especially sandwiches) is great, and the staff are all very friendly. Doesn't matter how often you go, there is always something different to try, and everything is delicious! With friendly staff and a great atmosphere, it's a true 5 star experience, when 5 star experiences are not very easy to find. HIGHLY recommend!!

Lavazza is a terrific little coffee and sandwich shop in the heart of downtown. The decor is clean and mid-century modern, with air conditioned indoor and outdoor sidewalk dining options. The paninis are a personal favorite. The Sunday brunch includes bottomless mimosas and several varieties of quiche, which has to be among the best weekend deals in town. The staff is friendly and service is excellent. Its about a 20-minute walk form my office and a favorite excuse for a mid day break.
