My daughter and I came here for brunch on Sun, Oct. 28, 2023, between shows at the Paramount Theatre for Austin Film Festival. It was a cold windy day and Caroline is close to the theatre.
It was a busy day as there was also a civil march for support/protest of the fighting in Isreal and Gaza. The march was organized and peaceful, but that did bring more people to the area.
Caroline has a unique coffee roast for their espresso. It's smoky like a campfire which made a delicious burnt marshmallow latte and a regular cappuccino. We also had the eggs your way with smashed potatoes and toast. My daughter had the chicken and waffles. The chicken was peppery and crispy tempered with a nice crusty, sweet waffle with maples syrup.
The restaurant was crowded but not uncomfortable. Our table was not cleaned until we were seated. Our waitress was attentive, but the food was served by kitchen workers, I think.
We will visit again! If this review is helpful, please give it a 👍
Very lovely place for breakfast. We had avocado toast, breakfast tomatoes and heirloom tomatoes. Coffee was excellent, variety of nice fresh menu options available. Our waiter Aaron was nice, professional and attentive. Overall great experience. Recommend.
I've had breakfast here a few mornings this week, and well... I keep coming back. Good menu with a bit of variety, but not a bewildered number of options. Staff are great - Aaron was serving me today. Safe to say I'll be back again on this trip..
Aaron was such a great server! Very knowledgeable and attentive. Food was great and the patio seating was soooo lovely! Definitely recommend!
The food was decent. I wouldn't say that the quality matched the price but the salads were good, drinks were well-executed, and the spicy deviled-egg and hot goat cheese appetizers were fantastic! We sat outside, and, besides the homeless who tried to hustle us for money, it was nice. Our server, Troy, was on top of it! There's a separate coffee/pastry area inside that might be worth stopping by for something quick before work!
Checking this place for the first time and it didn't disappoint. Food was great and the service was perfect, our waiter Aaron really took great care and was always attentive.
This is a great spot to dine :) The service is wonderful, and incredibly understanding and genuine. The food menu offered a delicious variety of food, and there were a good amount of drink options! I had the omelet and it was superb !
I was able to sit at the bar with a friend with very little wait (mid-morning on a Sunday!). The staff were great; the place was clearly busy, and they were working together to check in on tables and make sure everyone was being served in a timely manner. The food was great as well-- the chicken and waffles hit the spot, and the toasted marshmallow latte was a treat!
Food menu was not extensive which was awesome cause it (usually) means you can't go wrong with most of the items. I ordered the hueveos rancheros and it was pretty good. The sauce that came with it was a bit sweet which threw me off but worked well with the dish. The go green smoothie was incredible, I felt so good after drinking that and the taste was great. My friend got the avocado toast and it was decent, nothing spectacular, a little lemony but overall light and tasty. The atmosphere was casual chic, loved the furniture colors and eclectic vibes. Our server Aaron was on top of it and we could tell he genuinely loves what he does. Everything was fast and he made great recommendations even without asking. Overall great experience!
Aaron was our server, he was very nice and attentive. We went during brunch. Cappuccino and Lemon Drops. The spicy deviled eggs were shockingly good with a mix of sweet, bitter and spicy. Love the candied dried jalapeños. Great starter! The Waffles though…were airy with a light crisp and hard to step away from. Wagyu burger with runny egg and peppered bacon. My wife took the bacon off and created another appetizer. It was so good. Caroline is a great place to dine and get out of that Texas heat. Must place this location on our dine-in rotation.
