Boss Bagel is an awesome spot for breakfast and coffee. Their wood-fired oven means everything is fresh and made in-house. Only a block from your stay, it's a beautiful morning walk.

Ocho is a cuban inspired restaurant and bar set underneath Hotel Havana downtown. Park outside Cadillac Lofts on the street for free and walk over about a block. The food is good, the bar underneath is dark and lit only in red light. Check it out, maybe get a reservation.

Coffee Shops

Press looks like it was built inside of a retired greenhouse. It's tucked away so don't miss the turn. Good coffee and a fun atmosphere.

When I want delicious coffee from a San Antonio roaster, Merit is one of my all-time favorites. Everything is roasted in San Antonio and the shop is a local favorite for good reason. It's also attached to a bike shop. Just a cool vibe.

This place has awesome coffee and pastries and other food items. Built out of an old farmhouse it’s a quaint and quiet place to enjoy a coffee or grab a quick bite. They also have several draft beers on tap for an afternoon on their porch. Live chickens in the back will also keep you company.

The Botanical Gardens are one of my favorite places in the whole city. The lush landscape is so thoughtfully done and well taken care of. You can explore for hours and they feature revolving art exhibits all along the grounds. It’s worth a visit for sure. And only a couple miles from your stay.
