Terrible Love — Restaurant in Austin

Ok first of all. I CLEARLY SEE why this place has 5 perfect star reviews. I’ve been wanting to go here for a little bit, and been procrastinating, but today I dragged my friend to go with me. I got an iced vanilla latte with whole milk, and she got a hot vanilla latte with whole milk. When I tell you that this is your sign to go, please go. Considering that it was less than $12 for 2 lattes in this economy??? It’s soooo worth it. Will 100% come back. Also coming from a barista, love the coffee, need to get it for home

I would definitely recommend the cold brew with grapefruit syrup, it’s so tasty and refreshing, also very unique to this place. Their matcha and banana drink is also pretty good!! The banana in no way overpowers the matcha instead both flavors meld pretty nicely. Also their breakfast tacos are delicious, $4 each but very tasty. I am Mexican and I approve of them!! If you like and can handle spice I would recommend you go for the red salsa, the green salsa has a kick too but it’s to watery for me. I think the red salsa has a bit of chile morita mixed with chile de arból and it’s chef’s kiss 💋. I got the potato & cheese and the bean & cheese burritos, so I recommend those.

Parking is pretty spacious in the basketball part of their lot and their seating is outdoors. They don’t take cash btw.

May 2025 update: went back to get my breakkie tacos and unfortunately both sauces are no good anymore 😭😭 they’re both super watery, not worth it anymore. Drinks are...

Terrible Love is truly one of the gems of the Austin coffee scene, and should you place faith in this maxim and head that way, you will absolutely not be disappointed. Dreamed up and run by an Austin coffee veteran, the espresso (Try Hard beans, if you're curious – also in the neighborhood) is fantastic and the vibes are one of a kind. Our city is one that easily falls in love with stellar branding, but this spot stands up with coffee that's even better.

What to get: Anything with espresso– for summer, an iced latte is spectacular, and I'm thinking a cortado would be heavenly in the autumn months– but you'll find matcha here too. Or test your mettle with a Trrbl Latte, made decadent with chocolate and banana. Maybe pick up a bag o' beans while you're there. Hang in the courtyard, waltz up and down 11th Street, vibe solo. Regardless, this is your sign. This is the coffee you've been...
