This is one of my favorite coffee shops in Austin. It is set in a small house and it has a nice cozy/stylish feel. This is a perfect spot for weekend early birds, its usually packed later in the morning on weekends. I like this place best early on a weekday morning. Definitely recommend their mocha or cappuccino.

Sightseeing

The capitol building and accompanying grounds are a nice place to spend a morning. There seems to always be something going on at the capital building on weekend mornings whether it is some activist event or some other public event. Definitely worth a visit just to enjoy the area!

Mount Bonnell is a little ways out of town but its a perfect spot to check out in the middle of the day. You'll be able to catch a cool view of downtown and also be about to look over Lake Austin.

Parks & Nature

Zilker park is an essential Austin landmark. Head there on a sunny day and bring a blanket and book and enjoy the outdoors or bring a frisbee and toss it around with friends. If you're here in the spring then you'll want to check out Blues on the Green on select evenings. This is also where ACL is held.
