WORDS FROM HALCYONITES
“I love this place!! During the day it is a very hip spacious place to sip some good coffee, meet some friends, or chill out and do some work. During the evening, it’s and even hipper spacious joint to sip on some awesome mixed drinks and eat some fabulous desserts. I had the most amazing martini — a French 77 which is topped with champagne. People are open and friendly here, with a fun vibe. Can’t recommend this place enough.”

“I stopped in a few days ago with my wife and 3 daughters – between all of us we had great espresso, a rusty nail, a Cohiba cigar, a couple pressed game and cheese croissants, tea, chips, and some cold drinks. We sat outside with our English Bulldog and chilled. Hollis took great care of us again!”

“This place sure has gone through a lot of changes in the past few years but one thing has not changed: it’s still a place I love going to with friends before a night out downtown! The ambiance is great.. it’s darkly lit with a few tables and tons of sofas — perfect for lounging around with friends while eating s-waitforit-mores, smores! I’d recommend this place for anyone who wants to just hang out with friends in a relaxed atmosphere while having a few drinks and eating smores.”

“I love this place now! Halcyon is a bar, coffeeshop and smoke/cigar shop. It’s perfectly located downtown to go grab coffee or a drink before a show. My favorite thing about them is that they serve SMORES!!!!! I still can’t get over it! They bring a cute little fire pot to your table on a tray with marshmallows, chocolate bars and little graham crackers in saltines-sized packages. Too cute and so much fun!

“Fantastic!! i had such a great night last night when we went out to downtown Austin… The smores were OBVIOUSLY doable at home but it was a fun environment. Everyone’s so close together yet you’re still able to do your own thing around that little 2 by 2 table. You can come here with any attire!! This place is just so chill :)”

“YES! S’mores & coffee with friends on a chilly December night – how awesome is that? Four stars awesome!.”

“Have you ever been in the warehouse district and were jones-in’ for a good latte? Well, if so, this is the place for you. People-watchers don’t fret. This is a wonderful place to grab a drink, sit out on the “walkway bar,” check out the passing “talent,” and smoke’em if you got’em.”
