Look I'm not expecting Starbucks speed, but 20 mins for a latte is crazy. It's not that busy.

I go out of my way in the mornings to get coffee here. Delicious drinks, staff is genuinely friendly, and the vibe is great.

I recommend the lavender latte!

Now I know why it's called "once over" because they try to get "one over" on you.
The prices online did not match the in store prices and was 50% more expensive which is not only false advertising, but illegal.
Rather than apologizing & accepting their mistake with grace, the barista was rude, snotty & unpleasant.
Since I had planned my day around traveling here, it was definitely a disappointment to start my day with such an unpleasant barista.
The patio is beautiful, and other shops should take note, but the bad attitude was unprecedented and unparalleled & she said "it doesn't matter" & tried to minimize my extreme discomfort with their unethical practice.
Deceptive business practices do need to be called out, because it's not fair for people who make plans, budgets & travel arrangements based on what's advertised on the website.
Updating your site to reflect prices accurately takes one minute, but losing trust & customers often lasts forever.
Remember your consumer rights, because prices displayed must match what is charged.
I would love to return once they improve the quality of the coffee, update the site and train staff in customer service.

Very polite batistas, variety of flavors. Espresso was good. Plenty of art from local artists.

I ordered an iced Americano with brown sugar syrup and it was DELISH! I want to take this syrup home.

A cozy, quiet, queer-friendly coffee bar. Once Over is a true "third place," especially since it (like other local coffee houses) hosts community events now and then. The staff are very chill. Dairy-free and vegan options are excellent.

This place was so the vibe, great barista, great food, off-the-chain milk foam creations, and delicious espresso. The outdoor patio was like a secret garden, with a creek running behind it & beautiful greenery. I love the social issues and politics that this café supports and is a stand for. Also a great place to study and work. 100% recommend and I’ll definitely be back!

Come for the tacos but stay for the coffee. El Primo/Once Over is the strongest alliance in this city.
A quintessential Austin spot that nails craft coffee and laid-back charm. Their espresso drinks are flawless, the drip coffee is bold yet smooth, and everything reflects a commitment to quality. The cozy interior is inviting, but the real magic is on the back patio—a serene hideaway overlooking Bouldin Creek, perfect for a quiet moment or good conversation. Add in the friendly, passionate staff, and it’s clear why this place is a local favorite. For authentic Austin vibes and exceptional coffee, Once Over is a must-visit.

I could actually cry thinking about this coffee shop because it has cured my sadness every single time I visit. Like seriously, I could be having the worst day and this place makes it better. The people are absolutely amazing. SO funny. Normally I skip every other shop in this area but this one is perfect. And their lavender syrup is perf

This is has quickly become my favorite neighborhood coffee spot. The baristas are great and the whole place has a great and unpretentious old-austin vibe to it.
