Kick Butt Coffee

Kick Butt Coffee Kick Butt Coffee is a multi-use cultural hub in Austin, Texas, operating as a coffee shop, bar, and live music venue. Some of the music is live.
(2999)

It supports local and emerging artists through accessible, high-frequency programming, serving as a vital community space. From "Best of Austin" write-up in the Austin American Statesman: "Plenty of surface parking on site. Decaf, teas, chai. [Lunch!] Some quiet spots in this big space. We’ve always liked owner Thomas Gohring and his ambitions to create a singular community around coffee, booze, e

ntertainment and, yes, martial arts. Gohring brings to the game a flair for showmanship, an element almost absent from any other coffee shop in town. He has expanded the size of his original location on Airport Boulevard while retracting his attempts to go global. A small stage, backed by his signature graphics, takes pride of place, but the long coffee bar attests to the original impulse to serve rigorously prepared espresso drinks along with food, beer and wine. As the ACC Highland project, as well as the Linc and other area redevelopments fire up, expect Kick Butt to thrive and retain its inimitable character. *The place opens and closes at odd times; we rounded up or down."
