My Favorite Pattern. (And Coffee!)
The gorgeous smell of fresh coffee will be the first to greet you at the doors of Houndstooth. You will then be warmly welcomed by one of the fun and funky baristas and probably some of the local regulars. The decor is simple but serious and the logo and motto is Houndstooth – the pattern of coffee and people.
I’m not a serious coffee drinker – I stick to sweet and milky things. I add sugar to everything, but I can honestly say I add no sugar to the Houndstooth latte. It is the perfect one and decorated at the top with a heart, of course. (I think its a heart, I don’t know what it’s supposed to be…)
Don’t live in north central Austin, you’ll get the same warm welcome and phenomenal brews at the Frost location downtown.
Its family-owned and operated with the help of some of the coolest people in Austin. (Fancy Fridays are the best days to go. Their outfits are definitely blog-worthy.)
If you are ever on Lamar or in downtown, it’s definitely worth the stop. And really, who doesn’t have time for a local cup of coffee??
I could use a nice cup of coffee right now…. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
You know, I could really go for a cup of coffee right now! My motivation for the day has just sort of… disappeared. 🙂 Houndstooth is such a great name. There aren’t a ton of fun coffee shops where I live, just a local chain really, and I haven’t frequented it much since college. I need to change that!
