50 Best Coffee Shops near Leon Valley

“The staff is awesome! They are always friendly and so helpful. Please offer a tip option on the card reader!!!!! I rarely carry cash anymore and it would be nice to reward their great service!“

“The service is amazing here! The staff is friendly and coffee is great. They roast their own beans which is a plus for me. Tried their croissant tasted like I was in Paris. My wife had the horchata latte and loved it.“

“ELISE CUISINE is the manifestation of owner Rocio’s ten-year dream, and her dedication and commitment to her dream is evident down to the smallest details. The dining space is simple, but quite lovely, and the atmosphere is very warm and welcoming. Service was excellent and perfectly balanced in attentiveness. With hours of 7 AM to 4 PM, this is a breakfast and lunch place, with a varied and adventurous menu that caters to meat-eaters, vegetarians, vegans, and diners in need of gluten-free alternatives. On my first visit, I had the excellent spicy fried chicken sandwich, with sides of home fries and a wonderful arugula salad with cherry tomatoes, quinoa, and a balsamic vinaigrette perfectly blended between sweet and acidic. I look forward to returning again and sampling the extensive breakfast menu. Plenty of beverages are available, and there is a stately espresso machine that speaks to a restaurant that means business when it comes to coffee. This area of Potranco has been in dire need of a sit-down coffee house alternative to Starbucks, and ELISE CUISINE is it. I’ll admit that I was initially a bit cowed by the menu prices, but the portions are very generous; I left with half my meal unfinished, so I was really getting two meals for the price of one, and in truth, virtually all the dine-in, non-fast food alternatives in the area are similarly priced, with nowhere near the ambience and elegance. I plan to be a regular at ELISE CUISINE from here on out.“

“Really nice place. Great coffee and good atmosphere.“

“Really enjoyed the ambience, drinks and games! Will definitely come back and recommend it!“

“Love this little coffee shop. Downtown, near work, quaint and perfect. Great food, drinks, and art.“

“I took my first sip and didn’t even realize I said out loud, “Wow, that’s so good.”

I had ordered a simple cold brew but anyone who knows coffee understands there’s nothing simple about cold brew. It takes time, precision, and a deep understanding of the craft. This place clearly gets it.

Bright Coffee lives up to its name: a beautiful, inviting space with exceptional customer service and seriously impressive coffee.

Thank you, Bright Coffee. Can’t wait to go back!“

“I decided to take a walk and bumped into this nice little place. What started as a chocolate store that turned into a coffee shop. They still sell both. It smells amazing when you walk in and its cozy. The Americano was amazing, seriously it was filled with flavor. Definitely hit this place up whenever you can“

“As soon as we walked in we’re were greeted, the owners are very polite and super friendly. Their Chilaquiles and Churros are to die for. Best churros I’ve had living in Texas so far. 100% recommend them for a good meal for breakfast or lunch. They serve Beer too!“

“Cozy place to work and sip on some coffee. Loved the vibe and decor 💛“

“Nice little hidden gem! Good selection of coffees, wine and pastries as well as super friendly staff!“

“Great atmosphere! The ladies infront working were amazing!! can't remember her name she had an awesome neck tattoo and she was super helpful and very knowledgeable on the things they offered ! I got Desert Twilight whipped and it was AHHHMAZING! Definitely will be going back !!“

“The Farewell Phantom is the Best! Highly recommended!“

“My favorite locally roasted coffee in central Texas, hands down! I live in Bastrop county and order my coffee online. Their deliveries are fast and dependable. Love y’all, San Antonio Coffee/What’s Brewing 😘“

“Healthy muffins and cookies are delicious. I love to visit with friends and the owner is friendly as well as the service being professional. Their menu is amazing. I enjoy their pancakes & great mushroom, Spinach omelet. It's one of my go to restaurants for the great people and food. I highly recommend this place.“

“The drinks are phenomenal, the vibes here are relaxing, the owners are really sweet, the staff are amazing and so kind. The food is delicious and the drinks are amazing!! Best coffee place I have ever been to!!“

“I have felt welcomed from the first time I went in.“

“Super cute, chill coffee shop with bright, airy interior. Lots of varied comfortable seating to work alone or socialize. The coffee is great & reasonably priced. Cold brew is especially good.“

“Cold Brew from here was off the hook. Best in San Antonio no doubt. Be back soon. Very busy spot especially on the weekends. Cashiers were to the point and prompt and had the cold brew ready before I even paid despite being heavily crowded at the time I was there. I would highly recommend any local or out of town coffee fiends to try this place out.“

“This place is a tall-ceiling coffee shop vibe. It is in a business tower but it doesn’t feel that way at all. Somehow they’ve made it cozy and inviting inside a giant corporate tower. The coffee is strong, well-sourced, and delicious. The food is all good, especially the sandwiches. They will accommodate any special requests and make sure to go the extra mile to be there for the customer.

This place is not cheap, likely because they pay rent in one of the nicest buildings in the city, but they go the extra mile in quality and service, and for that they are worth every penny. Highly recommend this place for coffee, a quick snack or sandwich, and even some vintage finds in their little clothing shop in the back.

Parking: On the street for free.“

“My parents and I went for our 1st time yesterday, on my bday. It was pack and people were rushing in. I informed the lady I'll be ordering 4 plates. 3 meals 1 dessert. place my order, sat down waited an hour for food. finally arrived informed lady just missing 1 more plate... mine. she said ok and walked away. after waiting for another 30 min. no one ever came back. I asked about my plate cause I knew they were busy and didn't want to be impatient. when I asked cashier about my plate, turns out she never even charged my order. so they just looked at me like a deer in head lights and apologized they didn't know how to compensate. They were too busy to do my order so just compt my tip. i left hungry and bummed out so maybe it'll be to iron out unsatisfied customers after mishap so they're not leaving a Lil negative remarks.“

“Kiki's is one of the truly great cafes in town. A friendly staff, excellent coffee and a full bar plus a tempting desert case invite you in. Well designed comfortable interior with a French style patio for those cooler days give you additional reasons to return. Kiki's is dog friendly so feel free to bring Sparky! PS: Kiki's is named after the owners pup who occasionally makes a guest visit!“

“what an amazing coffee shop. prices are great and the coffee is delicious. lots of cool goodies at the front when you walk in. the atmosphere is different than other coffee shops and it's awesome. came to get a nitro cold brew and it was well worth it. highly suggest skipping the bigger corporate coffee and coming here for delicious black rifle coffee!“

“Such a great taste of coffee! We were visiting some family and found this local shop. The owner was super friendly and provided us with a variety of knowledge for her Coffee drinks. You have to try the banana pudding iced latte and the Avani. Those were delicious! See you next time!“

“Our group of 9 women had a fun, delightful tea party. So many delicious flavors and Leah was very informative about all the different teas. She and server Anna were so friendly and attentive. The area is full of light, beautiful dishes and very clean. We very much enjoyed our time there. Thank you“

“I absolutely love B Squad! From the moment I drive up, I’m greeted with the warmest atmosphere and the friendliest smiles. What truly sets this place apart, though, is the amazing staff—they make me feel like part of the family every single time. Their friendliness and attention to detail always leaves me feeling welcome and valued.

Whether I’m grabbing my morning espresso or enjoying a leisurely afternoon latte, the quality is consistently excellent.

I’ve been coming here for a while now, and they have quickly become my go-to place for both great coffee and a sense of belonging. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for not only fantastic drinks but also an experience that feels like home!“

The stools, furniture and lighting are beautiful. Wouldn't trade it for anything else.“

“The Capital One Café at La Cantera is always my go-to spot, whether I’m working or just taking a break. Today, I ordered the breakfast club with bacon on a brioche bun, along with a power yogurt bowl and a cappuccino, and everything was absolutely delicious. The food was fresh, flavorful, and served in a timely manner. The atmosphere is perfect for getting work done or relaxing, and the baristas are incredibly friendly and welcoming. It’s always a pleasure to stop by!“

Apart from being a little cramped, it’s a nice little spot to sit down, drink coffee, and chat with the regulars and staff. Everyone is super accepting and welcoming. Plus they’re very friendly to all groups of people, they don’t discriminate!

Like their slogan says, “All are welcome!”“

I go to a place called Mama Margie’s quite often for breakfast, and they have a Dutch bros next to them, but I always end up coming to this one, even though it’s about twice the drive. Love their cold brew btw.“

“It was our first time at Poppy's and it was great! So glad we looked up a coffee spot near us after our HEB run. We ordered the Americano, Tres Leches latte, and Poppy's latte. The Tres Leches latte was exactly what I like in iced coffee! The americano was a 4.5 according to my husband and we'll wait and see what my sister thinks about the Poppy's latte. The vanilla bean twist was delicious as well! Definitely coming back next time we're in the area!“
