Just a quick note here that tomorrow, Saturday 13 October, is the grand opening of a new espresso bar on San Antonio’s up and coming South Flores corridor.
Cafe Gallo, tucked inside one of the area’s avant galleries known as the Gallista Gallery, is headed by Jason Garcia, a former culinary boundary pusher with the luminous likes of La Reve and Biga on the Banks on his resume. The grand opening will coincide with a new South Flores area visual and performing arts event known as Second Saturday Smart Fair, with events for all ages such as visual art, live music, theater, film and video, poetry, workshops and food. The area is adjacent to the hip Southtown area of San Antonio and is a haven hole for chic and trendy artists and scenesters alike.
The staff at Cafe Gallo have been trained by Texas Coffee People’s very own Jason Haeger of Espresso Trainer.com and will feature a small lineup of espresso beverages, single-origin drip coffee created via manual pour-overs, and a focused menu of homemade Mexican pastries and sandwiches.
While Jason Garcia and his small crew are very excited to be opening, they are viewing this as a very first step in what promises to be an ever-evolving coffee and culinary experience that takes advantage of the blossoming South Flores loft and condo corridor on San Antonio’s southside.
Grand opening events at Cafe Gallo will kick off sometime around 1pm. The cafe and gallery is located at 1319 S. Flores Street.

I have to work…poo
How were you able to use Gallo in your cafe Gallo name, given the hostility that the Gallo Winery has towards its use by anyone other than themselves?
Oh no!
Looks like you’ve got italian gangsters after you.
Dear Sam:
It’s Spanish, my friend, not Italian. “Gai-yo” not “Gall-oh”. Coffee, not wine.
