What People Are Saying About Jo's Hot Coffee Good Food

In Short – Step up from the street corner to the window of this tidy little shack and order from the chalkboard menu. This neighborhood joint is located across from the Continental Club, so don't be surprised to see your favorite musicians grabbing a "cup of Jo" to go. The open-air seating offers a small patch of shade for dining. The unique sandwich selection ranges from albacore tuna with capers and lemon aioli to wheat-roast vegetarian barbecue.

They not only have really good coffee, the food is wonderful also. And it's a great place whether you are there alone with a good book or hanging out with friends.

Whoops on the $8 salad
by discgolfchic at Citysearch
The new Jo's in the 2nd Street District is very cool & hip. Beautiful granite countertops, white cabinets and creative lighting. It brought Austin's very own special uniqueness (a little hippie, a little retro) with it to it's new shop on 2nd. I love the coffee, pastries and I really wanted to love the cobb salad. At $8 a salad I thought "Oh, it's Jo's, it's probably worth it - just check it out." To my surprise, for $8, it's such a tiny little pile of lettuce & blue cheese, and after a 15 min wait (with not many folks actually eating food), I was surprised to be missing the best part, avacodo and bacon. YIKES! Will have to go back & try the burger or other sandwiches. I love you enough to give you one more chance Jo. See you soon.
