Bandera Coffee Co. 415 West Van Buren Avenue, Harlingen, TX 78550

"Bandera coffee is a true gem of Harlingen! The coffee shop has a super cute vibe, very southwest, and minimalistic. We had an ice latte, which was amazing and a quad shot espresso, also amazing and super cute and presentation. True coffee artist."

"The baristas are friendly and knowledgeable. The lady that took our order seemed happy to answer our questions. The drinks came out super yummy! This seems like a great place for a date or to study. I’ll definitely be coming back."

"The first time I visited Bandera, their seating area was under construction, so it was nice to walk into the bigger space so thoughtfully curated…down to the roadrunner imprinted on their mugs (should you be staying in the store.) The lighting, the merch, the plants, the table tops are all so lovely! The beverages, however, seemed a little overpriced for the size and the customer service was mid - nothing terrible actually, but I suppose for the stellar coffee shop vibe that you feel walking into the space, the barista’s connection to customers (at least for me) was limited, almost mismatched from the warm, inviting vibe the space put out. Also, there were two pastries in the pastry case (at 10am) and although more pastries did arrive during my visit, it left for wanting when I was ordering my beverage as there initially seemed to be very few options. Would recommend it, but mostly for the esthetic."

"Great coffee shop! Nice and chill if you need to grab a drink and relax for a bit. The Champurrado with a shot of espresso is spectacular!"

"Cozy coffee shop with low key vibes and friendly baristas. Nice wide open seating area with plenty of tables to sit at, plus a back area with more sitting. Nice decorations and an easy to read menu. Got an oat milk latte, didn’t specify whether I wanted hot or iced, and they gave me iced, which is okay because it was made really well and I’m sure people rarely get hot drinks when it’s so hot out. Overall a great coffee shop experience."
