Dallas’ La La Land Cafe to open a second Austin location at The Domain

Dallas’ La La Land Cafe plans a second Austin location at The Domain

Dallas-based La La Land Cafe is planning another Austin outpost at The Domain, according to a state-registered project filing for a new cafe build-out. The brand currently lists one Austin location on South Congress.

The company says it supports foster youth through paid internship and mentorship initiatives connected to the La La Land Foundation, alongside its coffee-and-toast menu.

About La La Land Cafe

La La Land Kind Café was founded by Francois Reihani, who opened the first location on Bell Avenue in Dallas in 2019.

The brand ties its “yellow” identity to its messaging and says it supports foster youth through paid internship and mentorship initiatives connected to the La La Land Foundation.

The company’s menu centers on espresso and matcha drinks, as well as signature toasts. Its locations page shows a large Texas footprint, including numerous Dallas-area stores and an Austin location on South Congress.

The Austin story so far

La La Land’s first Austin location opened at 1400 S Congress Ave in July 2025. Local reporting has also tied the brand to a planned second Austin-area project near Burnet Road, based on state filings.

A separate state filing shows another La La Land Cafe project planned for The Domain, expanding the brand’s Austin footprint into North Austin.

Details on the new Domain location

State filings list a La La Land Cafe project at 11410 Century Oaks Terrace #108, totaling 1,259 square feet and an estimated $240,000 renovation budget, scheduled for June 22 to September 30, 2026.

An opening date has not been announced publicly, and the company has not confirmed additional details. The filing describes a tenant finish with a new kitchen, restroom, dining area, and updated finishes.

What to expect at The Domain

La La Land Cafe’s menu includes signature espresso-and-matcha drinks and a toast lineup that features options like Truffle Burrata Toast, classic avocado toast, and fruit-and-nut-butter styles.

Local reporting on the Domain filing also highlights drinks such as the Banana Cloud Latte, as well as strawberry and mango-passionfruit coolers.

The brand says it supports foster youth through paid internship and mentorship initiatives connected to the La La Land Foundation, though program participation can vary by location.

Austin’s lifestyle destination

The Domain is North Austin’s premier mixed-use destination, featuring shopping, dining, entertainment, offices, and residences. Walkable promenades and luxury retailers make it a favorite for locals and visitors.

Adding La La Land aligns perfectly with The Domain’s energetic, trend-conscious vibe. The cafe will benefit from high foot traffic while providing shoppers and professionals a cheerful, convenient coffee stop.

La La Land’s mission-driven model

La La Land says it supports foster youth through the La La Land Foundation, including workforce development programming that combines hands-on experience with mentorship and wraparound support.

The company ties this work to its origins and describes its first cafe as a platform for change through paid internships for youth transitioning out of foster care.

Menu highlights

La La Land Cafe’s posted menu includes specialty espresso-and-matcha drinks such as the Banana Cloud Latte and Matcha Squared Latte, along with iced options like the Strawberry Cooler and Mango Passionfruit Cooler.

On the food side, the toast lineup includes Truffle Burrata Toast, classic avocado toast, “The Queen” Avocado Toast, and M.A.K.A. Toast.

Rapid expansion across Texas

From its Dallas beginnings, La La Land has expanded to multiple Texas markets, including Houston and Fort Worth, and has also opened locations beyond Texas. The company’s locations list shows a large footprint in the Dallas area and a growing statewide presence.

In Austin, the brand currently lists one location on South Congress, while state filings and local reporting have linked it to additional planned projects, including The Domain.

Why Austin loves La La Land

The South Congress location became an immediate hit, thanks to its cheerful vibe, quality coffee, and community-minded mission. Austin’s love of local, mission-driven cafes makes the city a natural fit.

The Domain spot provides North Austin residents and visitors with convenient access to the brand. Expect enthusiastic crowds, friendly greetings, and a vibrant community atmosphere with every visit.

Construction and timeline

State filings list construction for La La Land Cafe at The Domain from June 22 to September 30, 2026, with an estimated $240,000 renovation budget for a tenant finish-out.

No opening date has been announced publicly. For the most reliable timing updates, customers typically monitor the brand’s official channels as openings approach.

What this means for Austin

A planned La La Land Cafe at The Domain would add another coffee-and-toast option to a major North Austin retail center. The project filing outlines a tenant finish build-out, but an opening date has not been announced publicly.

The company ties its brand to “yellow” messaging and to foundation-backed programs supporting foster youth through mentorship and paid internship opportunities.
