The best gluten-free, fair-trade, vegan desserts on the planet! We're coming back to try the ice cream. And the homemade syrups! Just one shot of the vanilla is enough for anyone! Can't wait to come back, and bring more people.
I love this place! They have all kinds of vegan treats including vegan whipped cream. It's a cute place with friendly staff. It's a nice, pleaceful place to go to work on stuff, read or hang out with a friend.
This place rules! Plant based and delicious. I had a matcha, a taco empanada, and a cardamom orange donut and it was all amazing.
The vibes are great. 10/10 My new favorite place in Austin.
Entire store is Dairy Free and there are Gluten Free options as well! Being gluten and dairy intolerant myself I know the struggle of finding good quality and great tasting options. Fat Cats has definitely done it right! The staff was also super friendly and helpful! I will 100% be back!
OMG, it is not often you find a place that captures your taste and appreciates your patronage. Fat Cats is the perfect spot for delish ice cream and sweet pastries. Zach provides great customer service and a welcoming atmosphere. I had the Liz Lemon Cookie ice cream, and I must say that for this creamy concoction of lemonocity I will drive the 30 min across town. If I could I would buy a tub of it for myself. My husband and kiddos had cookie dough and cookies and cream and they absolutely enjoyed theirs too. I appreciate the vegan ice cream offerings and the quality of the pastries we had a cat cookie and cinnamon roll. Even our dog enjoyed her fresh baked dog treats. Our new family sweet spot for sure!
We are from out of town visiting friends and stopped by this place for breakfast and coffee. We tried several desserts and some of the savory kolache and croissant options. Everything was delicious, and the staff was incredibly friendly! When we come back to Austin, we will definitely be visiting again. Thank you!!!!!!
When it comes to coffee and baked goods, no one does both quite as well as Fat Cats. You can tell that the baked goods are scratch made with quality ingredients and the coffee is fantastic.
If you're looking for something savory, you can get delicious flaky spinach or breakfast croissants, sausage and cheese kolaches, or breakfast empanadas. If you want something sweet, their cupcakes and cake are decadent and moist and their dessert croissants are always delicious.
The coffee though... that was the biggest surprise. Whether you're getting just drip coffee / espresso or a cafe con leche, latte, cold brew, it's all roasted well, made with the perfect ratios of flavor, and the cold brew even has coffee ice cubes to keep from diluting the flavor.
It's hard to be anything but a regular!
Great experience as a vegan tourist. Had lots to eat and since it was my last day in Austin, I definitely had to buy half a dozen as the ones I had in the shop were delicious. Staff is very friendly and knowledgeable.
My personal recommendation would be the mazapan croissant. That flavor just takes it to the next level.
5/5 stars, can’t wait to visit again when I’m back in town.
100% Plant Based!! Fat Cats is a gem as they have a multitude of delicious vegan baked goods!! I tried the espresso chocolate chip scone as well as their drip coffee - delish! Vegans and plant lovers gather around! I’ll definitely be coming back here next time I’m in the area.

Small and quiet coffee shop, great for working from home!
They have a lot of little food items and vegan pastries, and their coffee options are great!
This is my new favorite spot in Austin! Love the Cuban coffee and pastries. Jacqueline is so kind and has the best recommendations for menu items.
This place is seriously a treat. I love that I’m not just filling up on sugar when we go for breakfast. The kolaches are great but I had the breakfast croissant and it was delicious. My husband had the green chili enchilada empanada and it was also equally tasty. Got both our littles a donut and sugar cookie (all vegan) and we were all content!
