South Austin is getting a new all-day hangout this spring, as Switchback Coffee and Beer, run by Ethan Wagner and Grace Nicholas, gets ready to open at 220 Ralph Ablanedo Drive, Suite 110. The hybrid spot will pour coffee by day and shift to beer and cocktails in the evening, with room for roughly 40–50 guests plus an outdoor courtyard.
Menu and design
According to What Now, the menu will cover coffee and matcha drinks, pastries and snacks, craft beer, ciders, and what the owners are calling “some not-too-strong cocktails.” The interior is set to lean into natural tones like tan, green, and terra cotta, with plenty of plants and big windows to keep the space feeling airy and outdoorsy.
