Wake Espresso — Restaurant in Bulverde

I really wanted to like this place, but unfortunately, it didn’t live up to the hype. The hot coffee is never actually hot—it’s either lukewarm or cool by the time it’s handed to me. For a place that seems to pride itself on quality, that’s pretty disappointing.

Whether you’re a local or just passing through, you’ve gotta stop at Wake Espresso. It’s my new go-to whenever I’m...
