Paperboy’s New Home
After announcing that Paperboy is working on building a brick-and-mortar restaurant at its original home on East 11th Street, the breakfast trailer is also moving its second truck from its Manchaca location at Radio Coffee to 1105 South Lamar Boulevard, as part of revamped cafe Merit Coffee. The reason behind the relocation was so that the trailer could serve South by Southwest attendees more easily. It will offer its same breakfast and lunch menu, like the bacon-egg-cheese sandwich and hash browns, starting on Wednesday, March 6 from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. daily.
