Legend Coffee

Good coffee and a saving grace for those who are enduring the long wait at Franklin’s. Cute setup with seats too!

Love Legend coffee! It is delicious, fresh, and hand crafted. It is clear the team takes pride and joy in what they do. I really feel cared for and listened to when I go! Great to grab a cup pre Franklins or on a Sunday morning on the way to he farmers market!
My only wish is that they had skim milk, but I am willing to make the sacrifice for this beautiful coffee!

Never mind the chain coffee shops! Support your local coffer house… or trailer! Tucked away behind Franklin BBQ, this hand built wooden trailer is cranking out some serious grinds. Tea, cold brew, espresso, you name it. The quality is very high and you can taste it with every sip. If you’re planning on standing in line for BBQ, grab a cup of coffee to start the morning off on the right foot.

Such an adorable trailer! Their bread and butter are line-​sufferers at Franklin’s BBQ, but I come here because their coffee is simply delish! I really like the Cassandra latte with honey and cinnamon– perfect for a cold (ish) Austin winter day! Fast service, nearby parking, and easy for a quick trip on the way to work!

This is a hand crafted wooden trailer behind Franklins BBQ. There is parking in front of it or on the street. I’ve had both the mocha and Cassandra lattes. Both delicious on the own, but the Cassandra is a cinnamon/​honey flavor latte. I’ve never had that combination before in a coffee and was quite surprised how delicious it is. The entire drink is made in front of you, including the milling of cinnamon. It is tasty, frothy and with the right amount of sweetness to bring it all together.

Such a cool little place tucked away behind Franklin’s BBQ! The lady was so friendly! I tried their cold brew iced coffee and I loved it! It was so smooth and not bitter! Will totally come back here!

I love a good coffee so came over to try their cold brew. They had a special called the city slicker which is their cold brew, vanilla, and cream so I got one for each my hubby and I. It was delicious– good coffee flavor and the vanilla really complimented it! Definitely give it a try. Such a great set up outside too!

Tasty, tasty, tasty. Highly recommend the hibiscus cooler thing. The trailer itself is a sight to see with every detail right down to the tip collector carefully thought out. Perfect location right behind Franklin BBQ, best kept secret of the bbq line…

Let’s keep this short and sweet: these guys know coffee.
They are poised right behind Franklin’s BBQ and serve some amazing tasting and really inexpensive coffee. They have fancy things like a cayenne cinnamon hot chocolate, different daily baked goods and bags of coffee beans, but the regular hand poured coffee was spectacular!
They use an Ethiopian roast that smells intoxicating, especially in the cold. Have it black, or visit the table a few steps away for cream and syrup (in a bourbon bottle, I like their style).
All in all, super highly recommended. I wish they were down in Miami, I’d drink this everyday!

Get the iced Cassandra!!! I could drink one everyday. Probably my favorite coffee drink ever.

I would think that without the steady flow of caffeine– hungry Franklin’s patrons lined up at 9am this place would not be so popular. The coffee tastes like it is brewed in a loaf of rye bread, which I love but not in a hot cup of coffee. Maybe they are trying to ride out the current beard loving, whiskey drinking, lumber sexual trend. Personally, when I want coffee, rye whiskey is not the flavor profile I am craving. The Columbia brew was harsh in all the wrong places. Maybe this batch was burned (though I hope they would have recognized this) or maybe the Ethiopian blend is better but even on a cold February morning I couldn’t finish 16 ounces. Two stars for providing me with an expensive hardwarmer– and the barista was friendly.

waiting in line for Franklin BBQ in 35 degree weather isnt very fun, but when the kind folks at Franklin mentioned that Legend Coffee was open for business in the Franklin BBQ parking lot, i was all about getting a nice, hot drink haha. they have a good spot for anyone waiting in line for BBQ, but other than that it is hard to spot their trailer so hopefully the line foot traffic and word of mouth is enough to keep them in business b/​c their coffee is good! i’m a sucker for a good pour over cup of coffee so that’s exactly what i ordered. at $ 3, i thought it was really affordable too. Heck at starbucks their coffee is already $ 2 a cup so i’ll pay that extra money for a freshly brewed cup haha. its pretty cool how they have an entire coffee shop set-​up in a trailer — they have all the fancy equipment to make you a mocha, espresso, or latte if thats your drink of choice too. huge selection of tea for the non-​coffee drinkers out there and they do offer a small selection of pastries if you need a snack while you wait. the service was super friendly as well. i hope that Legend Coffee does well!

A perfectly placed coffee cart to keep smiles going and eyes open when committing to the Franklin BBQ Line. As I was already bouncing uncontrollably from the frigid temps, I swapped my usual morning latte for the Chai. The spicy sweetness warmed me up and lifted my spirits to carry me through to the final destination of the Franklin cashier.
Even though we brought mimosas for our midday beverages, the ideal choice would have been to bring a bottle of bourbon to top off the available supply of warm milky beverages from Legend Coffee Co. Next time!
