Hot Off the Press Comics and Coffee — Restaurant in Austin

Forget all those other coffee places. Yes, even that one. This is THE spot to get your coffee. I mean, look, I don't even like coffee but I love this place. They have enough other drinks to keep someone like me going back. My current obsession is the Nico. And they remember my drink order and are amused when I try something else. Don't know what you want? They can recommend something. They even have a 20 sided die you can roll and have chance choose your drink (they have more than 20 drinks.

I think this is a really sweet little place with affordable prices and a good cozy vibe which is nice for cold...

This place is super cute. The coffee and comic sides are split. I have been meaning to visit but the plant swap event they hosted was the catalyst for my visit today.

I had an iced version of The Archie latte, which is butterscotch and caramel. I don’t like a lot of sweetness and described that to the gentleperson taking my order, and they were great at conveying that into the making of my drink. They asked a lot of great questions when taking my order to ensure it was made perfectly (my milk preference, if I wanted cold foam - and if so which kind, what kind of caramel since they had a few, did I want it iced or cold brew…). This resulted in a perfect beverage and I am super picky! 10/10...
