What Dylan Wiggins doesn't like about Merit Coffee Co.:
Anytime I come in here I feel like I'm bothering the baristas. They stand around in a little circle chatting and it seems like it's the end of the world when I ask for a black cold brew. View all feedback.

My absolute favorite coffee stop in Austin.My most recent visit: I talked with one of the baristas about Depeche Mode (serious style points there) I had a cereal milk cold brew FTW The newish laptop stands are a serious upgrade over the old stoolsParking: The parking spots right by the patio are super narrow, time limited and almost always full. I generally just parallel park on N. Lamar.
Good atmosphere, spotty staff, questionable pastries, horrible service when challenged.I 've been coming to this cafe for a while. The atmosphere is nice. There is a good vib to the place. After visiting a while I noticed the attitude of the staff, a blond in particular, that was anything but friendly. She acted as if the coffee shop were her home and others were intruding. Others are really friendly.Then, today I got a croissant that tasted like cardboard. I 've had croissants everywhere from Paris to Shanghai and their 's tasted old without flavor. Upon mentioning it their response was ... nothing.Instead of saying, sorry about that, can I get you something else they just said nothing. That 's not just a bad croissant, it 's horrible service. I do not respond well to that. Later I asked for a manager thinking maybe it was just the person I spoke with previously. His response, I 'll look into it.

They stopped making their own syrups due to demand and overall, the taste is not as good : I used to love their lattes but have stopped going now because of this. I get they have a higher demand and made this change to keep up, but I wish they didn’t compromise quality as much as they did.
