Good service – Great coffee, good service, nice place to spend time. Do not agree with posting marked "bad homelss experience." Don't let that idiotic, narrow minded, self-centered individual's rating spoil opinion of this place. You really should check it out!

Homeless Experience – Ok, so I've studied here several times, everything seemed great: coffee's good, lots of plugs for my laptop, etc. But the last, and final time, I went to grab a drink and study a bit with a friend, I had a rather negative experience. As I'm talking with my friend, I notice a highly pungent, extremely foul odor near me. Finally I turn around and realize the smell is coming from a homeless man sitting three feet behind me at a nearby table. My friend, thinking I knew the guy was there the whole time, told... read more

Best Coffee in Austin – Dominican Joe rocks! The coffee is some of the best I've had. Highly recommend the white chocolate mocha! I'm a tea snob and these guys have some very high quality loose leaf specialty tea which is so hard to come by in Austin.

Amazing Coffee! – Definitely would give Dominican Joe a 10! The coffee is amazing and the atmosphere of the shop is very nice. The pictures of the children around the coffee shop are really neat. I also like the fact that when I buy coffee from them I know it is for a good cause.

Great Place – The atmosphere is good ? not too loud and not too quiet, with nice big tables to spread out any work on, comfortable areas to hang out with friends, and a great patio for when the weather is nice. The staff is extremely friendly, and more importantly, the coffee is great too.

Best Coffee Shop, My New Favorite – Austin's newest and best coffee shop, Dominican Joe, is a great place to meet friends. It is conveniently located and is not only spacious, but enjoyable. The large tables make it easy to work, but the smaller ones create a more intimate space. I recently heard author Michele Wucker and it was very pleasant. There was plenty of space without disturbing other patrons. The staff is friendly and helpful and there are always new things to explore that always have a global significance. Mehul a... read more

Love This Place – Dominican Joe coffee shop has captured my heart in that when I am ready to get out of the house, I always think of DJ. After the kids are in bed, hubby and I sneak away for an hour or so to kick back on the futon and enjoy a hot cup of flavor and relaxation from a REAL, snuggle-up, large, mug (not paper cup). The atmosphere is easy and quiet. The flavors are unique and festive. From comfy couches to lap-top tables to patio settings, it's all there. A great place to plug-in or unplug. It's just what I need a... read more

Favorite Coffee Shop in Austin – DJ is first and foremost so great because the money goes to a really good cause. I can go in there and get whatever I feel like without feeling guilty about my budget. Plus, I have found two of my favorite drinks there. They have a wide variety of options, and more then once, they have made speciality drinks to accommodate my requests. The staff is friendly, quick, flexible, and always willing to do what is necessary for customer satisfaction. I have found Dominican Joes to be a place where I... read more
