Fleet Coffee

"The little cafe with two other locations offers fantastically strong espressos. (2427 Webberville Road, East Austin & 2806 Manor Road, Cherrywood & 804 Congress Avenue, Downtown; takeout orders can be placed in person or online; there are indoor and outdoor dine-in areas)" - Nadia Chaudhury

"Shake things up with this tiny East Austin cafe, where, along with coffee, espresso, and lattes, the specializes in creative caffeinated drinks. The Ritual is a drink that changes often and has recently been made with gingerbread--infused milk with a gingersnap garnish. Even better: there are tacos from Veracruz All Natural and pastries from Sour Duck Market. The cafe has a second location on Manor Road. Takeout orders can be placed in person or online (only during weekdays though); there are indoor and outdoor dine-in areas." - Nadia Chaudhury, Erin Russell

"Refuel from a jog through the Boggy Creek Greenbelt in East Austin with a stop at Fleet Coffee on Webberville Road. The tiny space is intimate and welcoming, with a strong range of coffee options. There are also pastries and tacos. Takeout orders can be placed online or in person; there are outdoor dine-in areas. Closest trail: Boggy Creek Greenbelt (1114 Nile Street, East Austin)" - Darcie Duttweiler

"Everybody knows that the best part of breakfast cereal is the last few sips of cereal-infused milk at the bottom of the bowl. Fleet Coffee takes that magical moment, and serves it in the form of a Fruity Pebble cortado, made with a cereal-infused milk. It’s not all novelty drinks at Fleet Coffee—you’ll also find some of the best espresso-based drinks in town, from pure and simple shots, to a refreshing espresso-and-tonic with local grapefruit. You can also get these drinks at the original location on Webberville Road, but we like the semi-permanent trailer right next to on Manor Road, since it makes an excellent Saturday morning stop. Just be sure to go a little early, since you won’t be the only one there. " - Nicolai McCrary
