| - It's like walking into the past, but it's in the present?...Ouch my brain.
Imagine you're Marty McFly and you just got zapped back to 1955; well that's the vibe this place has as soon as you walk in. Black and white checkerboard floors, red leather bound booths and chairs with multiple old school movie posters on the walls. "This is getting heavy doc."
This place is very tiny with only two booths and a few chairs, so you better not come here during the lunch rush or you're eating in your car. If you're on the run and need a bite, Coo Coo Cafe does offer phone-in orders that you can pick-up on the way to you're next appointment or if you wan to eat at home while you enjoy reruns on TV. "What's a rerun?"
With plenty of parking outside, I pulled up, walked in and met the owner, who by the way also takes your food order. This dude has a salty demeanor, but I can tell he's the "big soft teddy bear" type. No messing around though, just order your food and sit down...cool with me I'm starving! I went with what he said was the, "local favorite" the Cali Sub w/ sprouts, avocado, turkey, bacon and swiss cheese. On paper this sounds pretty basic, but it was very fresh and piled high (see photo) with lots of goodies, plus the bread was super soft. Plush in the middle and toasted on top by a sandwich press. Let's be real, the bread can make or break a good sammie, right?!?!
"That's right butt head"
To wash it all down I ordered the "Kiwi Kooler" smoothie. This had a great presentation, but was a little on the sweet side for my taste so I only drank about half. All-in-all this place was a hit for me and my tastebuds.
"Great Scott!"
I will be coming back to check out other Coo Coo Cafe food options from their simple, but surprising menu.
"Now, let's get back...to the future!"
