A neighborhood fixture

Specialty coffee in the heart of South Austin since 2009.

We opened on South 1st with a simple idea: a serious cup of coffee, served daily, in a room that feels like the neighborhood. Sixteen years later, that's still it.

Two bike racks out front. A back patio overlooking Bouldin Creek. Baristas who'll remember your order on visit two. Drinks built with intention, never on autopilot.

Our story
What we pour

The bar, top to bottom.

Full menu
01

Espresso

Single-origin shots, cortados, cappuccinos, lattes. Pulled to order on a well-tuned bar.

02

Drip & Pour Over

Bold yet smooth drip on rotation. Slow pour-overs when you've got the minute to wait.

03

Mexican Mocha

A house favorite. Chocolate, espresso, a quiet kick of warmth. Pairs with almond milk like it was made for it.

04

Cold Brew

Steeped long, served over ice. Built for the walk to Lady Bird and the ride home.

05

Pastries & Treats

A vast morning case: pastries, breads, donuts and more. Restocked through the day.

06

Gift Cards

For the friend who's already on South 1st most mornings. Available in any amount.

The room

A cozy interior. A magic back patio.

"Once Over is my favorite shop in a city with lots of really great options. The coffee is always excellent. There is an intention to the experience that isn't rote. The team is absolutely lovely."

"A quintessential Austin spot that nails craft coffee and laid-back charm. The real magic is on the back patio — a serene hideaway overlooking Bouldin Creek. For authentic Austin vibes and exceptional coffee, Once Over is a must-visit."
