A nice place, perfect for a date or to work. Great service, very friendly and very good tea. It is very popular, and it's very small unfortunately so it is hard to sit inside, but there are nice tables outside too.

BLUF: Solid coffee offerings, get coffee here if you’re at The Pearl, but wouldn’t come to The Pearl to get coffee here. Local business.
I’ve always had a great experience at Local Coffee Founders at The Pearl. Their cold brew is a reliable thirst quenching caffeinated option if you’re in the area, and they offer all of the coffee shop staples you’d expect.
During peak hours, this isn’t the coffee shop I’d come to for relaxation or to get some work done on my laptop, the interior is small, seating is limited, and the ambient noise is louder than you’ll find in other places. They’re dog friendly, but I would recommend going with someone that can wait outside while you order or vice versa. Service has always been fairly good, but you’ll definitely want to listen closely for them to announce your order is ready.
There’s ample seating outside in the adjacent courtyard and The Pearl District in general. I like to get coffee here when I’m already in the area, especially during the weekend markets, but this isn’t the place I’d come to get coffee otherwise. As with most businesses at The Pearl you’re going to be paying a comparative premium to the cost of similar goods elsewhere.
Things worth knowing ahead of time: Ample parking at The Pearl, cost varies based on the time and day of the week though. I believe it’s still free weekdays before 3pm, and always free for the first 30 minutes. Expect to walk a bit regardless of where you park, as there is no parking directly adjacent to the cafe.

Local Coffee, which is a coffee house in San Antonio, Texas that is located by the Pearl, is a lovely spot for a coffee stop when you're in the area!! My first visit occurred after taking a walk on the San Antonio River Walk to the Pearl, and I found this shop to grab a latte before walking back to my original destination. Local Coffee's staff are SO nice, and they make a great iced vanilla latte with oat milk. :-) They also have a variety of food items available, in addition to other drinks. My favorite alternatives are their Pressed Juicery options - including their Strawberry Basil Probiotic Lemonade. The atmosphere inside is great - the store is clean & well-kept, and decorated so nicely. It's a great spot for studying, or spending time with friends.

First time visiting this location and we thoroughly enjoyed it! Megan was so sweet and helpful. I ordered the vanilla oat latte iced with Mexican vanilla which was delicious. The lemon blueberry muffin was also delicious! Gorgeous location.

I really do not play about this place, they have the best iced salted caramel latte ever. I wish they sold some of their syrups, but I get it is for business purposes 😔.
The employees are always such a vibe and so chill too.
