About

Thistle Cafe is a tucked-away breakfast and lunch spot in downtown Austin, located downstairs in the Chase building on Sixth Street. The cafe features Mexican-influenced American fare, with standout breakfast tacos, sandwiches, wraps and burritos, plus vegetarian options. A peaceful courtyard offers a calm, charming setting despite the downtown location. Staff are notably friendly and welcoming, known for going out of their way for customers.

Working information is limited. The place closes at 2:30 PM on weekdays and is closed weekends, which limits availability for all-day work.
