Review & Rating

The best chai tea latte with oat milk is here! Out of nine places here in Austin, they're the best with that for me. :)

Everyone has a great attitude. I was impressed that they greet regulars ... the old fashion way... by their first name.

Love the parking here which is usually a deterrent to other coffee shops in town. Great environment and delicious healthy pizza and food.

The prices very from 3ish for a cappuccino to 5 for a mixed coffee. They also have a ton of teas to choose from and pastries like quiche and scones. Friday’s and Saturdays I’ve seen live music so if you go to study be aware of that because it cuts out some seating. They have an outside patio which is great for watching the cars pass at night. Wouldn’t recommend this place if you’re looking for actual food but it does the trick as a study spot

If you just need a few square feet of space, you'll be fine. But the Nest is optimized to fit as many 2'x2' tables as possible, and lots of students have lots of homework to do. It's crowded, but how much personal space you need is... personal, so you may like it.

Nice menu, clean, plenty of food and drink options, and cozy. You can relax, be productive, be social or anything in between. Open 24 hours, and it has a nice environment.

Great place to hang out. It’s busy but not usually too loud for a conversation. Tasty treats and drinks!

Food is delicious; espresso-based beverages - not so much. They look and taste like they're made by an automatic machine. Great place for working late at night.

One of my favorite coffee shops in Austin! My go to drink is an iced monkey's uncle...so good! ☕ I also love that they're open 24/7. The only downside is the back room seems to get rented out frequently, and they don't put the sign up until 30 min or so before. So you'll be in the middle of studying and then you have to get up and move because a couple people wanted the room to themselves.

Monkey Nest is the best 24 hour hangout if you need to work late and grab a bite. The food is spectacular, the staff are really friendly, and the menu offers tasty, healthy morsels inspired by Mediterranean and Persian staples. Be warned: it's usually overrun with university students who can get pretty loud, so if you need a quiet place to hunker down with a textbook, this might not be a great spot for hours-long sessions. It can also be very difficult to find a parking spot during peak hours in the evening when school is in session.
