About Barrett’s Coffee
Barrett’s has been a proud part of the Austin coffee community for almost a decade. While their first cafe location opened nine years ago in 2017, the team has been roasting coffee locally since the mid-1990s. Owner Travis Kizer has decades of experience sourcing and roasting beans, building strong connections in both the local and global coffee community since 1992.
The original North Lamar location (713 W St. Johns Ave.) is still home to their daily roasting and packaging activities. They recently expanded their offerings to a second location, Barrett’s Too, which features a full bar and kitchen alongside their house-roasted coffee.
Sourcing Responsibly & Giving Back
Barrett’s purchases directly from farms and brokers located across Honduras, Mexico, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Peru, and Ethiopia. They specifically source fair trade, organic certified, and women-produced coffees that help give back, funding local K-12 schools, women’s programs, recycling initiatives, and computer labs.
They also love sustainable innovation. Check out their newly launched Bubbs Seltzer. They are one of only four companies in the country to offer this reusable, sustainable siphon-bottled seltzer, delivered for free right to your doorstep.
