Klerje Coffee
1614 E 6th St, Austin, TX
Crema's Take
“Klerje is an espresso-focused specialty coffee haven in East Austin where the staff's genuine passion for coffee shines through thoughtfully curated drinks like their signature Chinese coffee with tonic and orange, plus carefully executed pour overs from quality roasters like Black & White and Makeworth. The space itself is a destination, with a uniquely designed atmosphere that extends even to the washroom, making it the kind of place you'll want to visit three days in a row and return to again and again. Beyond stellar coffee, they host creative events and welcome you to linger, whether you're there to meet a friend or get lost in a specialty drink that shows real care in execution, like hand-grated nutmeg on their seasonal lattes.”

Genuinely one of the coolest coffee shops in Austin! They have fantastic coffee. The atmosphere is so unique. The staff are so excited about coffee and they offer so many cool events if you’re really passionate about coffee and learning about it (my husband is). One of our favorite spots on the east side when we’re over here :)
TL;DR: One of my favorite coffee shops that I have been to! I will definitely be back. Coffee: I am not sure if this is a seasonal drink, but I ordered the Chinese coffee with tonic and orange (under the New Year, New Sips section). The orange and cinnamon flavor are quite strong, which I really enjoyed. I got to watch them torch a cinnamon stick and then put it into my drink which was so cool. Service: The baristas here seem so friendly! I was given a very thorough explanation of the drink that I was ordering, and I felt good about the decision I made. Everyone in the coffee shop seemed very cheery :) Ambiance: + I absolutely love the vibe here. Warm light streams in through the windows. The dark green walls with accents of red from the curtains feels cozy. It is a very laid back spot to sip on a coffee, chat with some friends, or lock in to work. + This is also a very clean restroom and probably one of the largest ones I have ever seen in a restaurant or coffee shop before? There is just a single room, but it is very spacious and comfortable if you need to use the can. + There is also free WiFi and plenty of other nice spots (coffee, food, shops) along this street!
The atmosphere/ambiance is really good and well curated theme including the washroom. Coffee is also great, I added vanilla pump since mocha wasn’t too sweet. Also my coffee wasn’t hot enough (I’m someone who likes my coffee super hot and sweet) Limited bakery options but we tried the banana muffin and it was good
Fantastic specialty coffee shop in East Austin. They carry Black & White and Makeworth and Metric. Their pourovers are very nice, I am guessing it's a 3-pour based on the fruit balance. The space is also very friendly to work and to converse. For the mornings, it's definitely an array of laptops on the weekdays but I can see on the weekends or on Fridays this being a place to catch up about the week's goings. The owners are also very knowledgeable about coffee and the coffee world so if you need help follow them. Also congratulations on the marriage!
I came here three days in a row when I was visiting from out of town! Delicious lattes (recommend the seasonal fall option- hand grated nutmeg on top that smells amazing and adds a great personal touch you can’t always find!), great atmosphere, and incredibly warm staff. A perfect way to start the day!
