Your A-List, Best Coffeehouse: Kick Butt Coffee
By Michael Barnes | Wednesday, June 11, 2008, 02:07 PM
Kick Butt Coffee — the first ever Out & About: Cafe Society subject — knocked the stuffing out of its rivals in the A-List vote for Best Coffeehouse. The clean-lined, Asian-themed spot, snugly fit into an Airport Boulevard strip center, won our hearts on first visit, and it took a full 36 percent of the vote.
Longtimer Ruta Maya, which occupies a capacious cavern at Penn Field off South Congress, came in a distant second with 9 percent of the tally. Mozart's, which roasts up divine beans on Lake Austin, got 8 percent. Irie Bean Coffee Bar, which has brightened up South Lamar Boulevard, took 6 percent, while Austin Java, which serves major food at multiple locations trailed Irie Bean by just a couple of votes.
Spider House and Jo's virtually tied at the next spot, while Caffe Medici drew the No. 9 slot. Taking 2 percent or less were Flipnotics, Bouldin Creek, Thunderbird Coffee, Little City, Quack's, Flightpath, Dominican Joe, JP's Java, Green Muse, Cafe Mundi, Halcyon, La Dolce Vita, Progress Coffee and Clementine Coffee Bar — but lots and lots of people voted.
(Out & About note: The only one I've never visited is Thunderbird. Guess where my next meeting will be...Kick Butt Coffee)
