31.12 La Boite Café

Things To Do In Austin, Trailer Eatery | 31 Jan 2012

Traditionally, trailer food is something usually reserved for lunch or dinner. But at least one trailer, La Boite Café, has managed to become a popular breakfast spot in town, so much so that they opened a new location downtown in October.

They make excellent coffee, particularly espresso, along with croissants, macaroons and sandwiches. The macaroons are to die for, and their croissant maker was named one of America’s top bread bakeries by Bon Appetit! Their simple menu is a home run, and the quality is amazing.

Today is Twofer Tuesday where you can get two sandwiches for the price of one from their Congress location.

You can tell that the husband and wife owners have put a lot of hard work and passion into their café. It is truly one of a kind.

They have probably one of the most unique “trailers” in Austin, as they operate out of reused commercial shipping containers. La Boite means box in French, hence the name.

They are very active on facebook and twitter, so follow them to keep up with the latest on specials and news updates!
