1st Edition Coffeehouses 503 Coffee Bar 503 W. Oltorf St. There is a relaxed, laid-back feel to this South Austin java joint not far from the St. Edward's University campus. Some come here for a quick jolt, others to ponder the Muse, or just to chat and relax with friends. There is a patio out back where customers can enjoy a cup of coffee or a beer.
Light snacks are on the menu.
Given its location near St. Ed's, it is busy in the morning. The coffeehouse is open daily and closes at midnight Sunday through Thursday, and 1 AM on weekends. The colorful bug has gone, and now there is a popular coffeehouse occupying the spot. Inside and out Austin Java Company has a relaxed feel with picnic tables on the deck outside for those who enjoy a little sunshine with their coffee. The cafe has expanded its menu from snacks and pastries and now serves sandwiches, salads and pasta dishes.
