Le Bleu
9070 Research Blvd, Austin, TX
Crema's Take
“Le Bleu in Austin has earned real recognition for their bánh mì, which pairs perfectly with their carefully crafted coffee program that balances traditional espresso drinks with inventive seasonal creations. They're a genuinely late-opening spot that feels like a genuine neighborhood anchor rather than a quick caffeine stop, with light food that complements rather than overshadows the coffee itself. The 4.4-star rating across over 500 reviews suggests they've built something that resonates with both coffee enthusiasts and folks looking for a complete, thoughtful café experience.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee, with creative signature drinks. Light food on the menu. Open late.

I came here for a late lunch. It wasn’t very crowded, which is what I was looking for. The service has been excellent. I was seated immediately, and my waitress was very helpful about my questions about gluten free options. She would go ask if she didn’t know. I was definitely…
