The place had a charming atmosphere. The staff were friendly and accommodating.
I ordered Joe’s special. It tasted good but it lacked the balance I had hoped for. I found the portion of eggs in my dish to be significantly less than expected, with the plate seeming to have an excess of potatoes instead.

This was a great restaurant to eat at before making the trip back to Houston. The environment was comfortable and informal, and I felt that the ingredients were fresh and the atmosphere was relaxing. I will definitely be back and the reason I would mostly come here is that parking is very easy and accessible with food that doesn’t compromise.
There are plenty of options for vegetarians. And the bottomless coffee has real cream that comes with it!

Really enjoyed dining at Counter Cafe. I had the flavorful Counter Burger with sharp cheddar, a sourdough bun, and bacon, along with delicious fries, and I ate every last bite! I visited with a friend who highly recommended it, and it was a memorable experience. I will definitely be back!
Amazing food and service! Katie is awesome. Breakfast options are awesome. Here you can also find a salad that you’d enjoy, balanced with protein and greens.
After being famished from a Sunday morning run on the lake, I decided to grab a bite. Counter Cafe was on a list of closest restaurants. 🍳 The place located in a quaint area with typical Austin vibes. The cafe was full, the people seem happy with lots of chattering (fun surroundings)! 💃
The menu was decent and price was fair. My waitress Katie was nice but took a long time to come by and grab my order. (Let’s just assume she was busy since it was packed) When my food came I thought it was just average. There was no special flavor or pizzazz to it, a bit disappointing. ☕️Coffee was super, so a + for that! I will not advise against going there, but maybe your food will be more tastier than mine. ☝🏼

This restaurant has friendly staff and the food is REALLY good!
I polled our entire group for a star rating before posting this review and we all agreed.. 5 stars!
Hands are shown in the photos for scale.. those are BIG Pancakes!
The French toast is far better than any I’ve had.

Highly recommend Joe’s Special and the fresh pressed orange juice from the breakfast menu. Bottomless Coffee is available, too. The place has a little outside are and an inside area to sit. Food comes quickly and great service
