Coffee and Coconuts (besides being two of my favorite things) is a charming former cinema turned three-story restaurant. If you enjoy good food, good drinks, and a good aesthetic for Instagram photos, C&C is your jam.
The wait/ambiance. We arrived on a weekend during brunch hours, which is arguably the busiest time to go to a place like Coffee and Coconuts. We waited for about an hour for a table. While waiting, it gave us an opportunity to take in all of the details of the rustic yet cozy decor. Couches were available as seats to lounge and catch up with friends; there were also tables for more intimate meals; brick walls lined with artwork; two flights of narrow stairs where dedicated servers lugged trays of food and drinks. There was a lot happening inside, but nothing about this place seemed hectic or rushed. When it came to be our turn, we were blessed with a table on the third floor -- prime seating for overlooking the rest of the place.
Coconut coffee. A beautiful blend of espresso and coconut milk with just a hint of agave for sweetness. It's a great and refreshing pick-me-up in the morning.
Green coconut bowl. A spin on the acai bowl. If you're feeling like something healthy and nutritious for breakfast, dig into this. It's a creamy blend of mango, passionfruit, avocado, spinach, and coconut milk, topped with fresh fruit and grains. Deeeelicious.
Full CT. If you're a person who wants a taste of everything, get the Full CT. Smashed avo toast, mini pancake, fruit, yogurt. It's the whole sha-bang when it comes to breakfast. (And it's also Europe, so each of these items is truly a sampler size, so don't worry about needing to be rolled down the stairs.)
No matter what you get, it seems like you can't go wrong. And if you do, well, at least it'll be good for the 'Gram.
