Nestled in East Austin, Lazarus Brewing has created something truly special - a warm, inviting space that masterfully combines a craft brewery, coffee shop, and taco joint under one roof. The hybrid concept perfectly captures Austin's laid-back yet vibrant spirit.
The atmosphere strikes an ideal balance between hip and welcoming, with thoughtfully designed spaces that cater to different needs throughout the day. Inside, you'll find cozy leather couches, bar seating, and a charming reading nook beneath mounted deer heads. The spacious outdoor patio features picnic tables shaded by trees, making it a perfect spot to enjoy Austin's sunny days. Eye-catching murals and barrel wall decor add distinctive character to the space.
People who visit consistently praise the exceptional beer program, with the Czech-style lagers and hazy IPAs earning particular acclaim. The "Black Pearl" rice lager and "Lightning Wolf" IPA are local favorites. But what sets Lazarus apart is that the quality extends beyond just great beer - their coffee program receives equally enthusiastic reviews, with visitors often noting the expert baristas and carefully crafted espresso drinks.
The food menu centers around what many consider some of East Austin's best tacos, with the al pastor and pollo verde earning particular praise. The massive tortas and queso fundido con chorizo are other standout items that pair perfectly with their beverages.
While the reviews don't specify if they roast their own coffee beans on-site, visitors frequently comment on the high quality of their coffee program. They do offer bags of freshly roasted coffee for purchase to enjoy at home.
The space transitions seamlessly from morning coffee spot to evening beer garden. Early risers camp out with laptops and breakfast tacos, while evenings bring a social atmosphere as friends gather over pints and shared plates. With ample indoor and outdoor seating options, Lazarus works equally well for solo visits, casual meetups, or larger group gatherings.
The staff receives consistent praise for their knowledge and friendliness, with several regulars calling out specific team members who go above and beyond to create a welcoming environment. This attention to hospitality, combined with the quality of their offerings and the inviting space, has made Lazarus a beloved fixture in the East Austin community.
