About Us

Civil Pour Coffee + Beer is a specialty coffee shop, rotating tap beer bar, panini sandwich maker, and pastry seller.

OUR PASSIONS

We’re passionate about finding the best coffee and beer, anywhere in the world. We’ve sampled 150+ coffee roasters products, but only about 10% have made the cut. We’re meticulous about which beers we put on draft. We don’t focus exclusively on Texas beer, and instead opt for the best beers we can find, across a wide variety of styles.

Our water is filtered 7 times to make the best coffee. Our draft beer lines are cleaned every 2 weeks in-house, so your beer always tastes the way it’s supposed to. Our pastries are made by 3 local bakeries, and our panini sandwiches use locally-made bread. We’ve also sourced the best meats, cheeses, and spreads available.

If that wasn’t enough, our coffee roaster and draft beer selections rotate all the time, to keep you coming back to try new things. Make sure to Order To-Go menu for the latest info on which beers, coffees, pastries, and panini sandwiches we offer.

Coffee

For many, their day begins with coffee. It’s an important ritual that’s gone on for centuries. People rejuvenate and get a lot of satisfaction by enjoying their favorite drink. And whether that’s the best cup of black coffee, or our signature house latte, The Warlock, the choices are up to you, and the execution up to us.

We worked for years perfecting our coffee program. Here are just a few features you can expect at Civil Pour:

  • Water that’s filtered 7 times, for perfect coffee brewing.
  • A rotating cast of coffee roasters, hand-selected by us. Less than 10% make the cut.
  • Pour-over coffee that’s the same, every time, using our PourSteady brewer.
  • A creative selection of hot and cold coffee curations, tested and re-tested in-house.

Beer

We’ve been in and around the beer industry since 2008, hoping one day to create a beer bar we’d be proud to go to. Beer has been around for millennia, but brewers from all over the world are creating the best beer the world has ever seen. The creativity, collaboration, passion, and hard work are second to no industry we know of. We worked equally as hard, and for many years, on ideating our perfect vision of what a beer bar should be, and how it should be served.

Here are a few features that set us apart from other beer bars:

  • A hand-selected tapwall from our team of experienced industry veterans. Rare, seasonal, best-of-style, and many only available on draft.
  • Beer gas that’s a blend of 70/30 CO2/Nitrogen for a smooth pour every time.
  • Tap lines cleaned every 2 weeks, using methods 80x more effective than many bars.
  • A growler-filler from Austria, that’s oxygen-free. This allows you to enjoy an unopened growler weeks, or even months later.

Panini Sandwiches

Any great beer bar must also serve great food. We really had no desire to operate a full kitchen and researched how to execute great food without one, for years. Inspired by our travels, we came across a panini sandwich program that really impressed us. To curate our menu, we hired a local chef to create the menu, plating guide, and source the best ingredients.

We were also on the hunt for Cuban sandwiches and traveled from Florida to California in search of the best. Our chef was able to help us get pulled pork from local BBQ favorite Pecan Lodge.

Here’s a little bit more about our sandwich program:

  • Hand-selected, and house-sliced daily, meats and cheeses. Our Cuban even has pulled pork from Pecan Lodge.
  • Ingredients that are locally sourced whenever possible.
  • Made-to-order only sandwiches, with fresh, locally-baked bread, melty cheese, fresh meats, and produce.

Pastries + Sweets

Last, but certainly not least, all of our favorite coffee shops had great pastries and sweets. Like our sandwich program, we wanted to present the best baked goods possible, but had no real desire to operate a commercial bakery. We teamed up with a local pastry chef and went through many rounds to select our favorite baked goods. In fact, we still do regularly to bring in new and seasonal items.

Here are a few notes about our pastry + sweets program:
