As college students we have all experienced the feeling of death. Whether from a long night of shenanigans with your friends or from pulling an all-nighter studying for an exam. Regardless of the reason, the next morning we are all in search of something to revive us from our death-like states. Well if you are in San Marcos then I definitely have the place for you. Located on Old Ranch Road, Wake the Dead Coffee House is a great place to get your coffee needs.
Wake the Dead coffee house is a great place to study. Upon walking in you are greeted by two or three baristas all ready to take your order. The dim lighting in the coffee shop gives it that spooky yet welcoming feeling. Once you receive your drinks you have a decision to make. Either proceed to the study or go out the back door to the courtyard. If you are looking for a quiet place to study I would recommend the study. But if you are just looking to relax and maybe mingle a bit I would recommend proceeding outside to courtyard.
Enough about the place. Let us get down to the drink selection. Wake the Dead offers a variety of different drinks. From beer to coffee. Whether you are looking to awaken from the dead or leave like a zombie, Wake the Dead offers it all. The iced mocha here is to die for. I have tasted many iced mochas from various different coffee shops, but Wake the Dead’s is amazing. The combination of the mocha syrup and espresso shots go down smoothly. You can barely taste the shots in the drink. I had to have two while I was there.
Overall, Wake the Dead Coffee House is a must visit for any student in the city of San Marcos. Whether its to study or just a quiet night of drinking that isn’t the square, this versatile coffee shop gets two thumbs up from me.
