Halcyon is such a cute little spot—part coffee shop, part cocktail bar, and all-around great vibes. I didn’t get a chance to try the food, but the atmosphere alone makes it worth the visit. Cozy, stylish, and perfect for hanging out, working, or just enjoying the scene.
And the espresso martinis? Amazing. Smooth, balanced, and honestly some of the best I’ve had.
Whether you’re in the mood for caffeine, cocktails, or just a chill place to unwind, Halcyon hits the mark.

Needs a major renovation- great staff & cocktails… but the bathroom are disgusting, smells like raw sewage.. broken sink and toilet - one bathroom has a key code, the other bathroom is free… like give this place an upgrade and promise it’ll be better… but smelling like piss and rotting carcass every time we go pee is difficult - it’s shocking to me that the one in mueller shut down… at least that one felt clean and professional

Chase is awesome. His energy is contagious, and he makes everyone feel welcome the second they walk in. Great drinks, great vibes, and even better hospitality. Easily one of the best bartenders in Austin.

Honestly, ordered the avocado toast, got guac (like actual mashed guac with pico de gallo & jalapeño bits) on soggy white toast and it took 20 mins to come out. $14 insane! Nothing is made fresh, the barista was unenthused and said everything is prepped night before so even though they have an egg burrito on the menu they can’t make eggs as a side.

Outstanding prices for downtown, happy hour Sunday is the best prices for drinks I've seen in any area of Austin. Has outdoor seating. Bartenders could be a bit quicker. Maybe stop talking and focus on getting drinks out.. No line and having to stand and wait 11 min and 9min for a drink is not good.. Doesn't seem long when writing this but stand and watch someone talk about whatever for just a few mins will be frustrating, 10min seems like forever..
Barista Margaret was super friendly and helpful and our drinks were delicious. Great vibes! Will definitely come back again.

Still one of my fun bars downtown—great vibe and always a good time. That said, it could use a little extra attention: the patio fan hasn’t worked in a while, the inside could use a DEEP clean paired with a much needed AC filter change. With a bit more upkeep, this place could really shine again.

I had the greatest experience at this location! I stopped by mid day to do some studying and work and I was so well taken care of. Margaret specifically did an exceptional job making sure I was taken care of while I was doing my work. I will definitely visit again!
