Figure 8 Coffee Purveyors

This is the best, and least pretentious, coffee shop I have found. The baristas are so helpful and kind. The coffee is perfect and the atmosphere is everything a coffee shop nerd could want. Calm and fairly quiet, good ambience, with a variety of seating options including a back room that is great for studying.

KOOP SXSW show had us craving more coffee, simple search led us to Figure 8. Most outstanding americano this year, ready to go back.

Made reservations to oseyo for the special occasion, low and behold they serve Figure 8.

Really a quality set up they have for roasting. By the way, the incredible selection of wine is the excuse I needed to visit after work.

I work in coffee and heard a lot about this place, so I decided to check it out one day and was impressed. Their gear is top notch, the baristas are locked in, the space is vintage and welcoming, and the people here are all regulars, so there's a feeling of family here. They bring in a good mix of interesting roasters that they rotate every few months which keeps choices fresh. Parking can be tough in this residential neighborhood, but not much is metered in the area.

Coffee and baked goods are always on point, the space looks great and is a nice place to work or meet a friend. Music is usually not too loud. Only reason I can't give them 5 stars is because the staff often makes me feel like they'd rather be doing anything else than helping me a get a good cup of coffee. Maybe I just have bad timing, it didn't use to feel that way in there.

Super nice dudes behind the bar— no judgment or coffee snobbery here! The atmosphere is very casual, seating at the bar or around any of the vine-lined windows. It was easy to find street parking and also easy to find somewhere to sit. Shoutout to Leif, one of the baristas there, who is incredibly knowledgeable and welcoming. I hope to make it back to Figure 8

Best coffee hot or cold. I love the atmosphere plus they are cool if I bring in my tacos to eat while I drink my coffee. I've had their baked goods and they are delicious. If I'm in the mood for tea I get a half hibiscus and half black tea. It's my favorite place in austin. Staff is very friendly and welcoming.

My new favorite coffee spot in Austin! I love the way they decorated the place: the mirrors...one which is supposedly haunted, the industrial look, even the light fixtures. The owners Ryan and Kathleen are super nice and make some mean coffee.

Their Iced Vanilla Latte has this nutty taste which I like. The price is reasonable too. My friend got the regular Vanilla Latte and said the coffee art was the prettiest she's ever seen at any coffee shop. =]

There's plenty of street parking on Chicon St. I've so far been able to find seating in the shop, but I predict this place will become very popular soon. But that won't stop me from coming!

I love Figure 8 for several reasons, but probably my top race is that they offer Four Barrel beans. Such a great choice! Haven't had a pour over here yet since the cappuccinos are divine, but the espresso drinks I've tried (espresso, cap, latte) have all been divine.

They're also dog friendly! I've brought my dog in here several times and I think she likes Figure 8 almost as much as I do ;)

Great coffee by good people. I’ve never had a bad drink here, the people are awesome and they have a pretty big outdoor seating area on the side with power outlets to get work done in the sunshine

No speciality lattes and surprisingly few espresso options. The espresso I got was a bit sour tasting. Limited seating inside - tables are much too close for comfort.
