Local coffee company Neon Bean is closed while owner Sydni Smith searches for a buyer.

What happened

A U.S. Army Veteran, Smith opened Neon Bean in 2023 to help her customers “wake up on the bright side.”

Located in a 13-foot by 14-foot drive-thru kiosk in Cedar Creek, the team offered a variety of coffees, teas, smoothies and snacks.

In her own words


Smith announced on Instagram that she closed the company earlier this year.

"I know I speak for everyone who has been a part of this journey," Smith said in her post. "We are so incredibly grateful for this opportunity, for the experience, and for the friends and community we have made during the last year and a half. Thank you for the good times, Bastrop County. May you always wake up on the bright side."

What's next

Smith told Community Impact in late December that she hopes to sell the coffee kiosk. Those interested in buying Neon Bean can message her on the company's Instagram, or call her at 210-517-9901.
