Mozart’s Coffee Roasters

Founded by four couples in 1993, Mozart’s Coffee Roasters is not your average place to visit in Austin to enjoy coffee. From a small stone building to a multi-level and multi-building lakeside retreat, it has been growing ever since. The coffee shop offers live music, paddle boat renting, community events, movies on the lake, and a lot more. You can enjoy your coffee with spectacular lake views. And their selection of coffee, drinks, baked goods, and sandwiches is amazing.
