Best coffee city in U.S.? This Texas city tops the list

Which city in the United States has the best coffee? The experts say the top spot is in the Lone Star State.

The backstory:

Food & Wine recently published its Global Tastemakers Awards top 10 cities for coffee and Austin was declared the winner.

The publication talked about the different spots where you can hang out at a café, including in "office buildings, cocktail bars, breweries, and bakeries, as well as alleys, kiosks, trailers, and even vans."

"The sheer variety of cultural influences, creative drink options, and accompanying food choices make Austin’s one of the most vibrant coffee scenes in the country," Food & Wine says.

Klerje Coffee, El Tigre, Fleet Coffee, Flat Track Cofee and Leona Botanical Café & Bar are a few of the Austin spots highlighted.

The top 10 is as follows:

  1. Austin

To determine the list, Food & Wine says it polled more than 400 chefs, travel experts, food and travel writers and wine pros from across the globe for their top culinary and travel experiences. 

The results are then turned over to its Global Advisory Board who rank the top nominees in each category.
