About Us
Parakeet Coffee is dedicated to making great drinks in a welcoming
environment. Specializing in espresso and coffee beverages, we join the
growing movement that recognizes great coffee can build great
connections. From farmer and roaster to barista and consumer, coffee
offers a unique opportunity for a daily connection that takes only a few
minutes of your valuable time. It is an honor to be part of that ritual
with so many people.
The best things in life are made by people that care about what they do
as well as by people that are respected and cared for. We try to offer
coffees that are fairly priced for farmer, roaster, barista, and
consumer (you). We invite you to have a conversation with us about
coffee prices and sustainability, if you would like. We appreciate
everyone that chooses to grow, roast, make, or consume an exceptional
coffee drink – you are making the world a better place.
Why did we name our shop Parakeet Coffee? There are multiple stories of
how wild Monk Parakeets made their way to Texas – perhaps there were
multiple paths. Like these parakeets, we are not originally from Austin
but found our way to this welcoming area and decided to make it home.
You can find wild parakeets around Austin, and they are sure to bring a
smile. We hope visiting our shop also brings you joy whenever you visit.
