I spent a week there last month and looked all over town for good coffee. The best I came up with was a 'coffeehouse' in the hippie district that literally served me strong coffee for a double shot of espresso. There was no creama, because it was literally just coffee. After going to Dallas, I drove to San Antonio area, staying the night in Austin. Austin is great and I had some espresso that was every bit as good as the top-tier espresso in Seattle. It was at a little place called Little Cities (or City). There are two of them in town near the University District. |
of business, tear in the eye :( . There is a place called roadaks, not sure of spelling that will roast and send to you. His coffee is fairly good but expensive. Email me and I will send you his number and address. Bob L (looking for a source of greens in Fort Worth, Tx) |

Not surprised after doing a Google search and not finding anything of promise. Oh well. I think I might try the hot air popper and roast my own. If not I'll just try SweetMarias or somewhere else.

dad just sent me a couple packages of their whole bean espresson blends and they're pretty darn good. I think there's another Tyler roaster but I can't recall the name, but do a google search for 'tyler coffee roast' (or sim.) and you should be able to find it. Good luck!

Donald Schoenholt was kind enough to introduce us (the C-Members) to him at the Boston SCAA conference. I would expect their product to be top notch. Marshall |
