Anacacho Coffee & Cantina

Just off the St. Anthony Hotel's lobby, Anacacho offers a myriad of coffee, espresso drinks, and libations. The food fare is a fusion of Southern fried and Asian spice. I recommend the fried chicken sandwich and the skewer small plate. The aesthetic is Texas meets an upscale Red Dead Redemption (#iykyk). Service is friendly, helpful and engaged without being intrusive. Ask for Alexis, she's great! I highly recommend this Downtown gem. Cheers!

The first sign this was a good place was they were playing old Taylor Swift deep cuts. It’s inside a hotel, with less tasteful decor, and while the decor in anacocho was still a little heavy handed (the animals scared me) it was a really elevated atmosphere for the price. The restaurant was small with few full tables (mostly café style) but we had no wait at all. Essentially the whole experience felt a lot more expensive and exclusive than it was. The food is an extremely good value and the portions are large. The fried chicken sandwich was really good, maybe a little too much sauce, but the ingredients tasted fresh. My parents cannot eat gluten and they got the chicken sandwich roasted on a gluten free bun — if you ask they will accommodate by using a seperate frying oil, even for the fries (kind of shoestring and really nice). Then the barbacoa tacos were incredible with a very complex flavor. The food menu is small but it seems that they chose quality over quantity because every dish seems very thought through, and it’s made up for by the extensive drink menu. The coffee is normal prices, the cocktails are pretty expensive (some more than the meals!) and the one we had was not my favorite , the green grasshopper which was too creamy and sweet for me. It was like a thin mint and not complex enough to justify the price for me. But I would 100% return next time I’m in town to try some of the other drinks which sounded a bit more sophisticated. Lastly the server was very friendly and attentive.

Tried this place out and was not disappointed. First of all the interior is absolutely gorgeous! I could spend hours here, it’s such a vibe! The drinks were amazing, I brought my 2 year old and she enjoyed a tasty mocktail as well. I highly recommend trying the grilled corn, it was delicious. Service is fast and great, you can tell they pay attention to detail. I will definitely be back.

The intention was to grab appetizers and drinks but everything looked and sounded amazing we ordered everything and it was worth it! They follow gluten free sensitivities/allergies. The drinks were classy and smooth. The Mexican street corn is divine! The smacked cucumbers were a refreshing, bite! And the pork belly and big red & barbacoa tacos are a must try! Needless to say, we were full but happy! Worth every penny and worth every bite!

What Unbelievable Attention to Detail!!! I stumbled across Anacacho today and was just absolutely floored! Everything from floor to ceiling is a treat for the eyes: The pillows, mural, walls, wood work are all a total delight. I had my first pumpkin spice latte of the season here, and it was wonderful, creamy, and not too sweet. This is definitely a tourist spot, so expect tourist prices, but the vibe is comforting contemporary country, with a wink and a nod to the pace and quality of the old Texas west. Highly recommend
