A- coffee, substandard coffee cake though for the price. It's dry and that's fine, but it needs a middle layer for sweetening. Prime location and friendly, prompt service, even with a big crowd. I'd give 4.5 if it was an option.

Fairly quiet coffee shop in midtown. Store is well decorated. The baristas are careful to follow instructions on how you want your drink. I'll definitely be back.

I paid around $7 for a large iced coffee. Not only more expensive than Starbucks but also tasted terrible. Not sure if it was coffee or milk put in it. Maybe if I would've went with drop coffee it would be better.

Usually I goto local coffee shops because they're cheaper than Starbucks and have better coffee. This did neither.

The Cuvee coffee is really good. It's fair trade roasted in Austin. The pastries are good too. They are made fresh from a local bakery. The baristas do good work. Nice place to hang out.

Great place! My friend and I love to come and study. Great coffee, music and amazing brownies! Highly recommend. Hours are perfect as well I love that we can come and study without worring about it being closed.

Coffee seemed weak. Americano reminded me more of a drip. And the matcha was more milk flavor than anything. My wife had a honey latte that was on special. that was pretty good.

The BEST Carmel macchiato I've ever had! Great atmosphere. Clean. Great service. Different types of food you won't find anywhere else . Try it once and you will be hooked!

Firstly, great atmosphere and lovely staff. Sadly, not sure if it was out of preference or not, the baristas did not use scales to weigh Chemex during pour process. They also didn't stir the honey into my latte so it was not crafted well.

Overall a disappointment, but a few minor adjustments would go a long way.

Pax, you've been missing the mark for months. While the ambiance is great, the food and drinks are not well made. The last time I was there, every detail of my order was wrong. The cheese wasn't melted on the grilled cheese. Multiple things were forgotten on the order and I kept having to go up to the counter and get it myself. The beverage was mediocre. Two times ago, the coffee beverage I ordered tasted like microwaved milk with some bitter, instant coffee in it. I went up to the counter to exchange it and ordered a tea because I figured you can't mess up a tea. There was a price difference and I wasn't refunded the difference. There was no attempt at service recovery either. There needs to be some type of standard operating procedures because it seems that the same poor beverage making techniques are just being perpetuated. Starbucks and McDonald's coffee aren't that great but at least they're reliable and you know what you're getting. You never know at Pax and at those prices, I'm not willing to risk it. The last time I was there, I didn't point out all the mistakes on the order because I knew that it was truly the last time I would be there and it just didn't matter anymore. Pax, you've been spiraling for a while. I hope you can pull it together.

First time I went by it was great! I went by a few days ago and ordered a sandwich and got a cookie and water.
It was 13.00 dollars! Little pricey for a Turkey sandwich. I asked for avacado on my sandwich. I figured that why it cost more. I did not receive a receipt so I could check the price. When I received my food no avacado. The young girl that brought the box to my table tossed it down and started to walk off I told her I needed napkins she rolled her eyes and walked off to get them. I told her there was no avacado on the sandwich she said it doesn't come with any. I told her I had ask for some when I ordered. Again she seemed put out that had asked for something. Very unfriendly and bad attitude. Will not be back!
