7. Lazarus Brewing Co
While it's technically a brewery, Lazarus opens early and has a robust coffee program. They roast their beans in-house and have a full menu with drip coffee and espresso-based drinks.
This is a really popular evening/weekend hangout spot, but on the weekday mornings, it's pretty quiet. If you want a guaranteed spot to sit with your laptop to get work done, Lazarus is it. Psst: they have really good breakfast tacos here.

8. Brew & Brew
This industrial coffee shop and bar is in an area of town called "east downtown." It's just on the east side of I35, convenient to both downtown Austin and east Austin.
