I come here on my breaks from work. I like to bring my computer and surf the web. The iced green tea is my favorite! I also heard there is live music sometimes but never had the time to stay and watch

I love coffee but can't take too much caffeine, so my usual drink is a half-caf <something>. Kick Butt doesn't serve regular decaf, but they will make you an americano with decaf espresso. Usually, when I've ordered this drink at other places (which shall remain nameless because I don't go there anymore and I've forgotten their name) it's tasted like pee-water. Kick Butt makes a decaf americano that tastes like good strong authoritative COFFEE. Besides, you can buy throwing stars there. How could you not love a place like that?

Visited this place once a few months ago. The coffee wasn't that special. Interesting decor looks more like a sushi place rather than a coffeehouse. Seemed kinda sterile. They do have free wireless internet. Overall I wasn't impressed. Other places in town are much more warm and inviting and have much better coffee.

I decided to go to Kick Butt coffee this weekend after reading reviews listed on here and I was not dissapointed! They have the most delicious Chocolate Frapps a girl could ask for=) What I liked about it the most is that it didnt feel as heavy as other Frapps usually do and it had this wonderful chocolate after taste that was so delicious it left me wanting more. I also liked the decor, my only complaint would be that I stood at the counter waiting to put my order in for a good 10 minutes without ever being acknowledged by the barista who was standing by the espresso machine making a drink. The place was not busy at all and I know she was making a drink for someone else however I do believe she could have said Hello and I will be right with you but she didnt nor did the girl who came in a few minutes later and just stood by the blenders talking to her as more people started coming in behind me.

This is a nice review from Lindsey Mullikin of Austin Monthly Magazine: WHILE CHATTING WITH A BANK TELLER about the lack of coffee shops along Airport Boulevard, Thomas Gohring came up with what he thought was a kick-butt idea. Merging his love of martial arts (he also owns Master Gohring's Tai Chi & Kung Fu) with the community's need for a little pick-me-up, he opened Kick Butt Coffee in February. Red walls, nunchucks, bamboo and oriental fans illustrate the business' ties to martial arts. The shop, which serves coffee, wine, beer and liquor, has round, cozy booths, a giant plasma screen TV and a Wii gaming system. But Gohring wanted to build more of a nighttime business in an area largely limited to daytime traffic. He asked his sister Joy, a stand-up comedian, to help start a weekly open mic night, and Kick Butt Comedy was born. The small coffee shop even opened its stage to out-of-town musicians, including John Biz, Aim Low Kid and Christpher Denny, during South by Southwest. Gohring built off that music foundation in May with a bimonthly blues [dance] night. While martial arts, coffee, comedy and music may seem like random patchwork, it's all tied together with a single thread, Gohring explains. "It kind of boils down to one question that we ask ourselves every step of the way: Is it kick-butt?"
