I try to find a new coffee shop every Sunday to sit and write. I finally made it to Coco to see what it was all about. I must say that the pictures of the "stadium" seating is what really had me needing to come here. I also entered with the expectation that the prime seating would likely be crowded, it was. Yet I found a cozy spot tucked away in the back at a huge table...alone!
I ordered a coffee and a matcha cronut. I was anxious to try it because well, it's a cronut! Who doesn't like croissants and donuts, and a mash-up of the two couldn't be bad. I will say that the cronut was a bit sweet for me. Specifically, the green icing on the top and then the additional icing that filled the middle. I don't think it was needed. I also felt it was a little too greasy. I don't think I'd order another cronut based on my experience with this one.
In addition, one of the reasons why it had taken me so long to visit this place is because it's in the heart of the city and I knew parking would be difficult. Well, I spent $18 on parking alone. Do they validate? I guess it's a little late for me to ask that question. That was the only thing that will make me less likely to come back, not unless I rent a scooter, bike, or public transportation.
Overall, I think Coco is a very cool place to just sit and have coffee and write. I really wish it was in a different location with private parking.
