Cherrywood Coffee House
East Austin patio spot for tacos, brunch, and coffee since 2009
The scoop
Cherrywood Coffeehouse is an East Austin neighborhood institution serving all-day breakfast tacos, weekend brunch, sandwiches, and Ruta Maya coffee from a converted house with a sprawling, tree-shaded patio. It doubles as a casual live-music, trivia, and comedy venue that draws students, families, and dog owners from the surrounding Cherrywood neighborhood.
The cafe has operated on E. 38 1/2 St. since 2009, per its own social-media bio, building a reputation as a laid-back neighborhood gathering spot centered on breakfast tacos and its pecan-tree-covered patio. Specific founders/owners are not documented in available sources.
