Whenever I find myself in San Antonio, one of the first things I do is scout out a good coffee shop. If you’re anything like me, there’s nothing better than sipping a fresh brew while soaking up the local vibe. Whether you're wandering through historic districts or exploring artsy corners of the city, you’ll find a ton of cozy, creative spots serving up everything from classic drip to inventive espresso blends.

Some places I’ve stumbled into feel like hidden gems, where the baristas remember your name and the pastries are made from scratch. Others are perfect for grabbing a quiet corner with your laptop or catching up with friends over a perfectly poured latte. So if you’re ready to discover your new favorite cup of coffee in San Antonio, I’ve got a few suggestions to get you started.
