They don't monkey around here. The coffee is excellent. There are stuffed monkeys everywhere and lots of monkey puns on the coffee menu. I'm not sure why they love monkeys so much but, honestly, who doesn't love monkeys? If the coffee is great, I'm good with it. We loved our drinks and we also got a breakfast taco that was very good. They've got cookies and other pastries and everything looked really good. No outside seating but plenty of indoor seating. The environment is inviting and funky. Who knew Austin had such great coffee?

Very nice and chill environment great food with great drinks and nice employees. I Ordered two drinks for my friend and couldn't afford one so they helped me out and gave it to me on the house they and the employees were very nice about it. So now I come here all the time after school

Ordered here for the firs time. My taco was horrible and tiny for $5. I also ordered a coffee and it was disgusting. Kind of upset that for $15 I received a trash order. Do not recommend anyone going here. High prices horrible quality

Has a small town atmosphere. I liked the avocado breakfast panini that came with these incredible pickled veggies, never tried that kind of thing before.

We ordered the Thai iced coffee and the cafe latte. Both were good, but not the best coffee I've had. The Thai iced coffee is strong and sweet. The cafe latte is a 6/10. Will definitely return but will try something different. They also have pastries and other snacks. There is seating indoor and a few tables outdoors.

Nice atmosphere, quiet place, staff very friendly. Great coffee, normal prices. 100% recommended. We will come back for sure.

Nothing is really made fresh. It's all pre-made at the beginning of the day and then warmed up.But the drinks are amazing, It's in a great location, the staff is friendly, And it's nice to just sit down and chat with a friend.Sometimes I wish there was more seating suited to groups of 4/5.

I wish it was 24/7 like it was before 2020, the pandemic changed alot of things. Other than that free wifi and great place to study.

Monkey Nest coffee is a nice little coffee shop. They stand out in their specialty drinks. Names like Monkey's Uncle, Spicy Monkey Mocha, or Nutty Irishman really got my attention. That Spicy Monkey Mocha was soooo good. I don't know what the ratios of coffee, chocolate, and syrup were, but it border lined on magical. I'm definitely going to come back and try something else. Staff didn't mind me hemming and hawing as I tried to narrow down my order. It's well maintained, with medium lighting to give off the "relaxed coffee shop were you can definitely get a lot of work done" vibe. Chairs are comfy and the restrooms were clean. I came here with one other person on a Thursday and it never got too crowded or too empty the couple hours we hung out.

This place was last minute find for our group. We needed something relatively quick and easy on the way out of town. They had a great special and their Thai Iced Coffee was delicious. Definitely worth trying out!

It's a very unique cafe. The drinks in the store are mostly fruit juices. There are no windows in the reading corner, so it's a bit dark.

Premade food in the display wasn't good. The pressed sandwich was pretty decent. Latte was really weak.
