New to the cafe and exclusive to the Northwest Hills location, the restaurant offers pancakes on it’s menu for the very first time.

Famed local designer and Austin resident, Joel Mozersky designed new cafe with Galaxy Cafe’s familiar visual aesthetic that has been a big hit with Austinites and visitors alike. The design gives emphasis on the cafe’s intergalactic theme with star constellations painted on the walls making it a fun atmosphere, we’ve grown accustomed to at the other locations.
