What: Central Market Cafe
I eat at the Central Market Cafe every time a ride through Austin. I've been eating there for many years. Not ONCE have I ever been dissatisfied with the food or service. Everything is always excellent and the prices are quite reasonable.
Highlights:
Casual cafe, self-service free drink refills, pleasant outdoor deck or air-conditioned indoor tables. Live music on the patio on weekends.
Many interesting types of food. Many interesting types of tea, both hot and cold. Fast service.
Prices are very reasonable, especially for Austin.
Motorcycles can park right at the front door.
Open 7 days a week, 7am to 10 pm
The cafe is attached to the Central Market grocery store where you can pick up supplies for your ride. Huge selection of trail mixes and imported beer. Lots of interesting hippie medicines and exotic fruits.
Where: 4001 North Lamar in Austin, TX
