Black Sheep Coffee

400 W 6th St, Austin, TX

★★★★4.3(104 Google reviews)

Crema's Take

Black Sheep Coffee is a refreshingly unpretentious spot on 6th Street where the real star is bold, smooth robusta that actually tastes like something—no bitterness, just clean energy and quality you can feel. Beyond the exceptional espresso, their Spanish lattes and matcha drinks are equally impressive, backed by a passionate team and owners who genuinely welcome you in, even when the line's out the door. If you're looking for serious coffee and creative drinks (the strawberry matcha is a revelation) paired with standout pastries like their waffles and mini donuts, this is worth the wait.

Coffee is good. Pastries are not better than you would get in grocery store. They have screens to place an orders. I’m kind of enemy of modern things because it gives McDonald’s vibe not a cool coffee shop, but I understand that it’s probably more efficient this way. So as place to grab a coffee- yes. Place where I would go regularly and spend time inside and buy pastries - not so much.

I don’t usually leave reviews, but this spot earned it. The robusta coffee is on another level. Strong, smooth, clean energy without the bitterness. You can actually taste the quality. It hits different from the usual watered-down cups around town. The matcha lattes are dialed in too. Balanced, not overly sweet, just done right. Great vibe inside, modern and relaxed. If you care about quality and not just caffeine, this is it.

Black sheep has been worth the wait 🤩 I’ve been three times in one week. The spanish latte is delicious and they have the best matcha on the block. The waffles, the mini donut, the breakfast sandwiches, it can’t get better than that! Staff is always super friendly & accommodating. It’s a small cafe but there’s still tables if you’re looking to escape your office for an hour or two.

Staff go out of their way to welcome you no matter how busy it is. Finally a place that can make a strong cup of coffee. I paired it with the best tasting waffle I’ve had in a long time!

They opened a week ago. I saw it walking by on 6th Street that there were various Matcha drinks which I love! I got the strawberry matcha! It was delicious. I met the owners briefly, a nice couple, they apologized for the wait. Which is expected for a place that just opened. It's dog friendly and a nice cozy establishment. If I lived in Austin I would be a regular for sure!
