The striped house on Ranch Road 12.
A coffee house in San Marcos since 2008: espresso and breakfast tacos in the morning, beer and wine at night, local art on every wall and something on the calendar most evenings.
Open every day, 7 am – 10 pm
Pick a room, stay a while
Order at the bar under the chandeliers, then take your pick: the quiet study with outlets along the wall, the shady courtyard where dogs are welcome, or the stage room when something's on.
