Merit Coffee
Merit's South Lamar outpost operates inside the Dawson Stone House, a Texas Historic Landmark dating to around 1900, lending genuine character to the light-filled, minimalist interior. The San Antonio-born roaster sources directly from farms across the globe, roasting on custom German Probat machines to produce polished, precision-driven cups.

Proud Mary
Melbourne-born Proud Mary brought genuine Australian cafe culture to South Lamar, serving flat whites, rare Geisha pour-overs, and an all-day brunch menu in a bright, airy space with floor-to-ceiling windows. The coffee program reaches rarefied heights, yet the welcoming vibe makes even casual visitors feel at home.
Radix House
Established inside the Westgate Lanes bowling alley complex, Radix House is an Austin original that pairs richly flavored house-roasted coffee and craft teas with a deeply meaningful mission around PTSD awareness and suicide prevention. Great coffee and genuine purpose make powerful companions.
Third Coast
One of Austin's longest-running organic and fair-trade roasters, Third Coast has been sourcing ethically and roasting small-batch coffee since 1994, working directly with small-scale farming cooperatives around the globe. More production roastery than sit-down cafe, but the commitment to sustainability is hard to match.
