Barrio Downtown

The drinks are unique and delicious! My border collie always wants to run in for a pup cup. I wish they’d extend their hours to the weekends.

I am so glad my original plan fell through and I stumbled into this place!! Churro coffee was great and this cinnamon roll pastries was delicious! It’s a small place but the atmosphere felt very welcoming.

Needing to catch up with a fellow friend/colleague, I suggested that we take a stroll to Barrio Downtown to grab a cup of Jane. Being that it was my first visit, initially I didn’t realize that this cozy establishment is a coffee shop (I have worked in the downtown area for over 10 years). Upon entering we were warmly greeted by an enthusiastic barista ready to take our orders. Since it was my first visit, I inquired about the barista’s personal favorite drinks. She suggested the Signature Churro and the Pumpkin Churro. Since it is officially the Fall season, I opted to try the Pumpkin Churro that was on the Fall menu. After taking one sip of my Pumpkin Churro, I realized that I made the right choice. It very much so tasted like a churro (which I love on occasion) with a slight hint of pumpkin flavor. Although I’m not in the downtown area often, I look forward to making a return visit to try the regular Churro Latte and one of their pastries (as recommended by my wife). Thank you Barrio Downtown!

Quick little corner stop w fast service if you're in a hurry. Delicious empanadas for $5 each. The dough is so soft!! Try the chicken tinga or the carnitas if you like a lot of meat. Chorizo egg is also good for breakfast. Ask for the habanero salsa, which is a little sweet and has a kick. Super friendly staff and I liked the music this morning. The coffees are served on the large side. I prefer small coffee drinks like a traditional macchiato. If you like lattes and milky coffee you are going to be in love! Try the cortado or the Vietnamese nitro (which is served iced). I'll be back for more empanadas.

So happy this place is back open! Fantastic customer service, homemade empanadas and really good coffee. I’m a coffee snob and drink black Americanos - Barrio’s espresso is delicious and smooth! Love the Vietnamese Nitro and Churro Latte as well!
