Cocoa Cinnamon

A small but fun cafe that makes for a cool gathering spot for friends or colleagues. A wide variety of gourmet coffees and teas. A nice selection of tasty homemade snacks and treats are available. Many healthy choice options. Our beverages were served warm, but not piping hot. We were a large party and ordered many drinks. Service is at the counter, fast and friendly.

The coffee shop in a warehouse like building set up. The staff are courteous. Americano was great. Was pretty busy for a Sunday evening mostly from the students that lends a creative vibe

Great coffee shop! Had the “Alebrijes in the Garden” drink which was macademia nut milk matcha latte with cinnamon and clove syrup and garnished with rose and lavender and very much enjoyed the drink. They also sell coffee beans and some merchandise. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating with shading. Small parking lot in the back.

I’ve come to this Cocoa Cinnamon many times. I always get the iced latte. I do mean to try something else but the iced latte is just so good. I put 3 squirts of simple syrup in it myself and it’s the best. Usually there isn’t too much of a wait. Today I didn’t wait at all. I ordered my usual and a chocolate chip cookie. The cookies are really good. They get most their baked goods from local bakeries. They always make my coffee pretty quick. It’s always packed with people working and meeting with others. I never have time to hang out but it definitely seems like a nice place to enjoy your coffee. The barista wasn’t as friendly today as the other ones but she made my iced coffee really good so I didn’t mind. The staff are always wearing masks at this location, it’s no problem for me. I’ll definitely be back it’s really really good coffee. I highly recommend giving them a try.

My favorite coffee beans in Durham but as of this post too expensive for me now. Understandably their prices have gone up. A $5 plain cappuccino is a good indicator of overall prices I think. The inside is cute, and occasionally a good reading or study spot, but it is popular and there are few spots with outlets if you are bringing a laptop, something to keep in mind. I always have great service.

There are coffee shops, and then there are gems. Cocoa Cinnamon would be said gem. The cappuccinos and lattes are wonderful, as expected, but the soul of CC is something special. Don’t forget to indulge in the homemade pastries.
