Spider House
Spider House is a very funky coffee shop (that now serves food and alcohol!) in Austin, just north of the University of Texas campus. When I was in high school and college, I spent countless hours reading on the Spider House patio. The ambiance is amazing, but the coffee is only medium. For awhile they even rented a space in their parking lot to an EXCELLENT coffee cart so customers could get really great coffee before going inside for a snack and a study session. A coffee shop that knows its coffee is so mediocre that it rents a spot outside to a great coffee cart? That's weird slacker Austin at it's best! Long live Spider House, a true institution! Important note: I have not had a coffee from Spider House in over a year, and in that time it may have improved exponentially. And I can confirm their food, milkshakes, and beer are all divine!
