Welcome to your day at Glass Social.
Everyone knows the most important meal of the day is breakfast. On your way to Glass Social, pick up catering from one of the nearby local establishments, like Austin-based Torchy’s Tacos whose breakfast tacos are made with cage-free eggs (Haymaker co-founder, Kate Harwood, recommends the migas). If French pastries are more your tasse de te’ (that’s ‘cup of tea’ in French) you’ll find a lovely selection at Austin’s only authentic, from-scratch French pastry shop, La Patisserie. Soraiya Nagree, owner and baker, and Lezlie Mills, head pastry chef, have created their mouth-watering menu, which includes croissants, cobrios, morning buns, beignets, tea breads, and muffins. And you might as well have some of their don’t-miss macarons added to your order for that mid-afternoon pick-me-up. Breakfast can be set up on the kitchen bar, a central location in the open-concept interior. Get the meeting started right away, or encourage team members to explore the space. Inside, local Austinite Patrick Puckett’s art is on display for guest enjoyment before it’s time to get down to business.Breakfast can be set up on the kitchen bar, a central location in the open-concept interior.
