If you’ve ever asked yourself where to find the top iced coffee drinks in Texas, don’t be surprised when the answer leads you to a hardware store on the historic square of San Augustine. Yep, you read that right.
Hardware on the Square isn’t your average hardware store. We’ve got tools, paint, plumbing supplies—and a full-fledged coffee shop that’s brewing up some of the most creative and refreshing iced coffee drinks in East Texas.
That’s why locals are saying, “Why our iced coffee menu is the best-kept secret in East Texas.”
Here’s our custom lineup of the top iced coffee drinks, each one handcrafted with a splash of southern charm and a whole lotta flavor.
1. The Oatmilk Overdrive
Inspired by the horchata shaken espresso trend.
Cinnamon, vanilla, oatmilk, and espresso are all shaken like a can of paint and poured over ice. It’s sweet, creamy, and dairy-free for those who are trying to avoid a lactose overload while fixing a leaky sink. A true high-performance iced coffee with the torque of Texas flavor.
2. Vanilla Valve Latte
Smooth as a new faucet handle.
This chilled classic is a combination of vanilla syrup, cold milk, espresso, and our signature cold foam cap. Think of it as the dependable tool you never knew your taste buds needed. If iced lattes were plumbing parts, this one would be the universal fit.
3. The CinnaTool Roll
Our answer to “coffee that tastes like dessert.”
Espresso meets cinnamon syrup and cream in this sweet number that tastes like a cinnamon roll fell into your coffee cup. Cold, cozy, and packed with flavor—it’s the comfort food of the iced coffee world. Bonus: it pairs well with an Allen wrench and a to-do list.
4. Half Moon Wrench Latte
Sweetness dialed to “just right.”
This drink is built with our proprietary Moon Wrench Milk—a rich, creamy blend—and strong espresso. It’s the perfect balance of sweet and bold, kind of like a dependable crescent wrench that never slips.
5. The Nut & Bolt
Inspired by a candy bar but caffeinated.
This iced favorite is loaded with hazelnut syrup, caramel drizzle, chocolate milk, and espresso. It tastes like a Snickers bar that got a job and started paying bills. Satisfying, rich, and just what you need to tighten up your afternoon slump.
6. Hammered Horchata
A cultural classic meets East Texas kick.
We take the cinnamon-spiced flavor of horchata and blend it with bold cold brew to make a drink that’s sweet, creamy, and just exotic enough to make you feel cultured without leaving the county. It’s a flavor hammer you’ll be glad to get hit with.
7. Golden Crescent Wrench
Elegant, dependable, and always ready.
Caramel, vanilla, espresso, and half-and-half combine into a rich iced latte topped with whipped cream and caramel drizzle. It’s our golden child, the kind of drink that earns five-star Yelp reviews and a permanent place in your cup holder.
8. Citrus Spark Plug
A zesty wake-up call.
Cold brew, honey-orange syrup, and sparkling water create a drink that’s as exciting as starting your chainsaw on the first pull. It’s light, refreshing, and oddly satisfying—like a spark plug for your soul.
9. The Shop Foreman
No-nonsense. All flavor.
This iced Americano features double-shot espresso and chilled water over ice. It’s bold, smooth, and a bit intense—just like your grumpy uncle who runs the shop floor. Simple. Strong. Gets the job done.
10. Caramel Clamp Macchiato
Everything layered just right.
Our version of this classic starts with vanilla syrup and cold milk, followed by espresso poured on top, then finished with caramel drizzle. It’s a satisfying blend of sweet and bold, precision-layered like a clamp that actually holds.
