This is such a cute coffee house and bakery!! Whether you need to study or if you want a cute date or to enjoy brunch with a friend, this cafe is your spot! The white mocha macadamia nut latte exceeded my expectations. It was delicious! I really wanted to try the French toast but sadly they were sold out; however, the Nutella crepe was a decent replacement. It was pretty busy on a Sunday around noon so somewhat difficult to find an open table. Overall, great experience and would definitely love to go back.

Cute coffee shop! First of all, I love the playlist. Makes the vibe super hipster and comfy. I really love the attention to detail for the interior design. From the teal tiles on the ceiling, the the cool pattern tiles on the walls. I feel like I would love to decorate my house just like this coffee shop!The matcha latte is top notch. Definitely one of the best ones I’ve had. We tried their lunch and really enjoyed it as well. I do thing the bread on the sandwiches are a little too toasted. They hurt the roof of my mouth to bite. I also wish the tomato soup was a lot warmer.One thing that stands out to me most is the smell.. and not in a good way. It almost smells like mothballs or urine. I think it would really benefit this place to light some candles or have some plug ins. The smell, to me, is a major turn off upon entering.Other than that, I loved my visit here. The staff are kind, quick and it’s a great hang out spot to work for the day.

This place lives up to the hype! It’s in a charming old house, with a tonnnn of tables and chairs to post up in the front and back, as well as inside. They have a ton of coffee options and pastries, in addition full on breakfast food available to order. I got their almond croissant and was very, very happy. The staff is quick with your order, super friendly, and they do a good job of keeping the place nice and tidy despite people coming and going at all times. This coffeehouse would be a great spot to work on your laptop or read book. They have a chicken coop in the back and a full parking lot. Highly recommend!Parking: They have a big parking lot for coffee patrons behind the shop.

Such, a quaint and cozy feeling. Definitely good to work and study. The atmosphere is awesome, very unique. I love the little patio areas in the front and back of the building. The environment wouldn't appeal to children. It would definitely be a solo trip type of thing. Very good to meet, for meet ups, and day time catching up with friends or a date.Parking: The parking is limited to about 20ish cars at one time. There is not a drive thru just so you know. And this shop is right at a bus stop, too.

This place was UHHMAZIN!! I'm a 7/11 coffee girl, so this was very different for me. They had a lot of different coffee options to choose from. I decided to go with the French press with almond milk and white mocha macadamia flavor. It was pretty good. Not sweet at all. I added a couple packets of sugar in the raw. The avocado toast with egg white was amazing. The toast was crunchy and the avocado was super fresh. We visited on a Saturday and the parking was pretty packed. We had to park on the street in front of the restaurant. The barista at the counter was super helpful in helping me decide what to get. My boyfriend had the chai tea latte and personally it was way better than my coffee. I highly recommend this place and will definitely come back to try other menu options.

I had an amazing experience at this cafe! The food was absolutely delicious, with such a chill vibe. As a coffee lover, I’m thrilled with the unique coffee options they offered (honey lavender iced latte was my favorite one 🍯).It's the perfect spot to have a meeting, enjoy with friends, or just go on your own. Highly recommended! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Enjoyed a wonderful brunch here on a Sunday afternoon. I ordered the omelette with potatoes and spinach - tasty flavors and the dish overall was very light. The staff were attentive and the ambiance was quite cozy.

We sat down around 9am and it was not busy which was nice. Beautiful interior and exterior seating areas. There were many dogs there that were friendly and not barking. For the food, today the quiche was a bit overcooked but flavor was there. The tacos and crepe were good. But the best was the Danish and bread. Must try the baked goods. That's where it's at! I enjoyed the people that worked there also. Genuinely friendly was the vibe. Thanks again for a great experience all around and I will be back with more friends next time ;)5 starts for sure.

DELISH. Cutest coffee shop I’ve ever been to. Food was good too! I got an omelette and tried the chocolate croissant. Cute tableware, nice workers, even fresh flowers on the tables. Offers alcohol too! TRY THE SPICED CARAMEL WHITE CHOCOLATE MOCHA LATTE!

Such a good experience. Nice people. Awesome venue. Ideal for Sunday brunch and drinks. I can't say one negative thing about this place, they have got it right in every respect, not least the chicken coop in the backyard and the gorgeous house that they're in. The drinks are great; food fresh; people friendly - what's not to love? Real asset to San Antonio. Make sure you go.

Delicious Lattes and The Prettiest Breakfast Tacos!Commonwealth Coffee is a small local chain, unique to San Antonio that is often involved in philanthropic projects: Their signature lattes are creative, tasty, and beautiful, served in large cups.The breakfast tacos are served on beautiful china; and the Davis St location is an old home: Cozy, comfortable, and inviting.Their pastries were created by a real life French Pastry Chef; and they have a full lunch menu after 11 am.This location is a bit hidden, but across from UIW Campus. I've been visiting here since 2018, and absolutely love it every time. ♥️

Front and back patios create most of the nice atmosphere, inside is small and quaint. You order at the counter and they bring it to your table, there was about eight people in front of us so we didn't anticipate an hour wait for our food. Yikes 🤪 . The food was very good, in spite of all the flies.Vegetarian options: Offer egg whites , French toast, fruit crepes and avocado toast.Parking: Parking to hit or missKid-friendliness: Chicken coop -back patio -keep children occupied and they have small picnic tables for children.Wheelchair accessibility: It would be difficult to get a wheelchair in and around this facility.

This place is so close to being a solid 5 star but not only are they painfully slow on drinks and food, they don’t have a working phone and their ordering online function has been broken for months. I used to rely on that so that drinks/food could be ready on a timely manner when I arrived (all of the lunch items online say “available later”). I’ve told their staff many times but it’s still not fixed. Parking is extremely limited both in the lot and on street, I’ve had to go somewhere else many times simply because there was literally no where to park. Their overall product is fantastic but the barriers to actually getting it are too large to give them 5 star.

Fell upon this little gem by accident. Had family in town and they wanted to find an outdoor breakfast place. Not only did Commonwealth have quality ingredients but beautiful plating, beautiful plates, beautiful decor. Fine dining quality food with very reasonable pricing. Can't wait to return and try something new!Vegetarian options: Avocado toast, bakery pastries, omelets....Dietary restrictions: We had a number of dietary palates. We chose this place due to the fact that we could please 2 vegetarians, 2 omnivore, and a pescatarian.Kid-friendliness: They have a beautiful pet friendly patio with a chicken coop and chicken run.

Fun house turned into coffee shop. French Press was a disaster - so weak it tasted like tea. Drip coffee was better. French omelette with bacon was too salty. Nutella crepe was fantastic. It can get crowded but there’s more seating than it appears. Recommend but with a few caveats and not sure if I’ll be back.

Have you ever been to a cafe with chicken coop outside? Well, CommonWealth is that place! Seeing the staff eating the food that they prepare in the kitchen themselves was so reassuring that they serve high quality food. With lots of free parking, clean washrooms, and beautiful atmosphere, CommonWealth is one of the best cafes I ever been to in Texas.

What a gorgeously decorated Cafe.Just beautiful backyard and front as well.The inside is clean and the staff were nice as well.We ordered coffee, cinnamon roll, and sweet croissant, and a ham and cheese sandwich served on a croissant right before they stopped serving food.It hit the spot for our lunch break.So glad we got to visit.Would definitely come back on a nice day and try to sit out front by the water fountain.

Extraordinary coffee house with excellent decor and esthetic inside as well as inside. The coffees and teas are amazing! All made and served by very nice baristas and staff. This location is centrally located a little north of downtown close to Brackenridge Park, The Witte Museum and the San Antonio Zoo. Intimate place to meet with a friend or a number of friends.Parking: Try to be early to find parking. If you cannot find parking, there are parking areas behind “Sky Nails” or behind “FedEx”. Some street parking is not allowed - Read signs before parking.

We loved this quaint café with a French flair. The Croque Madame sandwich was superb with thick layers of cheese and ham. We split it and were comfortably satisfied. Everything looked tasty. The latte was generous and hot.Nice patio seating and lots of off street parking. This is a perfect stop before or after a visit to the McNay Museum.
