El Tigre Coffee Roasters opens permanent brick-and-mortar shop in Austin
What happened
El Tigre Coffee Roasters is opening a permanent brick-and-mortar shop in Austin, Texas, at 2909 E. 12th St. The owner, Tatanka Guerrero, started the business in Austin in 2019 and previously operated a brick-and-mortar location in San Antonio. The Austin shop was physically ready for a year and a half but required city paperwork before opening. The new Austin location will be the only current store, though El Tigre plans to maintain a presence in San Antonio through pop-ups and partnerships.
