These Eastside coffee shops are showcasing the flavors of fall with special beverages that feature seasonal spices, sweet notes, and all the things reminiscent of the cozy and crisp season that is upon us.
Palomino Coffee
The sister shop to Flat Track Coffee, Palomino Coffee is a little slice of Southwest in the heart of East Austin. Pop into the warm, inviting space to try their cardamom mocha. The mocha is sweet, and the cardamom adds a subtle hint of floral and spice notes. Palomino is also taking Covid precautions seriously. They currently offer only outdoor seating and allow just one group inside to order at a time.
