From the moment you walk into Cafe Coqui, you are greeted by smiles. There is a sense of transporting to the beautiful island of Puerto Rico. The decor, the pride and the generosity of the staff that work here feels very much like you started in a town in Orlando, Florida and as you walk through the door, you step foot on the Isla del Encanto. Cafe Coqui is filled with tasty spanish pastries and the scenty of freshly brewed espresso. When you are ready for a special treat, either early in the morning or jus tafter lunch, Cafe Coqui is the place!

Very cute cafe to eat in or take out. Good Puerto Rican food. Pastries and sandwiches. Sweet girls serving. It was a good experience and the sandwiches were were large.

First time visiting Cafe Coqui in Avalon Park. The place looks very clean and plain. Not the cozy vibe I would expect from a coffee shop. I ordered the Pistachio Cold Foam ice latte and a ham, Egg, and Cheese Sandwich and my husband ordered the dulce de leche iced latte and a bistec Bistec Sandwich. Everything was really good. We truly enjoy the bistec sandwich! Customer service was great. The lady at the register was really nice! I would definitely come back if I'm in the area.

Sweets in the sweet case
Joe S.

What a sweet place! They have a lot of different sweet options from which to choose. They're pretty good too. The smell reminded me of a bakery in the town in which I grew up. So far, the donuts were my favorite. They also have lunch items and coffee, neither of which I was able to try yet. One person had a coffee flight which looked amazing and I've been trying to plan a trip to try that. The first visit was great as they were patient with picking out goodies. On the 2nd visit, the girl seemed kind of annoyed that I was there. It was 30 minutes till closing, but still. So service kind of depends on the attitude of the person working at the time. They do have a rewards program, but the cashier was in a hurry and kind of skipped over all that and didn't give me a chance to sign up. That 2nd visit really made me think about coming back.

Puerto Rican hot sauce

Finally, I made it to Cafe Coqui, and it did not disappoint! This cute café is in Downtown Avalon Park across from the new Marketplace. But it's sooo much better, in my opinion. It's cozy, quiet, clean aesthetic, pleasant, and cute. There is plenty of seating both inside and outside. Inside, there is also a small bar top where you can enjoy your treats & beverages while looking outside. The service was great. I did not see mallorcas (Puerto Rican sweet buns dusted with powdered sugar), I asked, was told they were proofing & needed 2 more hours. I told her I'd be back. When I returned, she remembered me & my request. I ordered two mallorcas both with powdered sugar. I did want the guava and cheese but I will save that for another visit. I sat and enjoyed my delicious mallorca while I read my book. Delighted!

Outside

Estábamos de visita en Orlando y somos de New York y Pennsylvania; vimos Café Coqui en TikTok y tuvimos que venir a probar. Katherine y Fabiola fueron bien amigable y profesional. Desde que entras el lugar está completamente LIMPIO y todo se ve rico y fresco *, tienes la opción de comer tanto dentro o afuera. Yo quería un iced coffee de galleta Biscoff pero ya no estaba disponible en el menú pero ellas fueron tan amable de hacerme uno similar a la receta así que GRACIAS por eso. En resumen le doy un 10/10 por todo.... La Limpieza, comida, calidad, servicio y el ambiente. El coqui turkey Club en pan Sobado y Jamón, queso y huevo en pan sobado.

Iced coffee flight: coco loco, coquito, pistachio, matcha and donut holes
Chan'tial V.

We also ordered the Bacon egg and cheese- which was good. Order didn't take long. You do have to carry your own flight to the table, it's heavy and take your time. Matcha- not too sweet, earthy| enjoyed Coco loco- so good Coquito- was not feeling this one just tasted like ice coffee, was expecting more coconut creaminess- like coquito with some coffee. Pistachio- different- has a mouthfeel but good once you get all the flavors. The flight was $21 and I feel like that was expensive because these are small goblets, we paid roughly $5 each. If it wasn't for the variety of flavors and the hot food being good I would give a 3 star. The donut holes weren't as fluffy as we were expecting. Definitely photoshoot worthy interior with the castle wall and orange couch.

I must say I expected more as they were hyped up. Service was, not great they had a few ladies in from not baristas at all and were not very interested in taking my order, and when they did acknowledge they were in a rush for me to order. I asked for a macchiato I got something that was awful and bitter, so I asked for a latte same experience not all the sugar in the world helped. food I went basic a Ham, Cheese, and egg sandwich it was very slim with a few potato chips. the decoration is nice and the pastries look fresh. would I return no!

This is a great neighborhood coffee shop in Avalon Park. They are Spanish inspired, which reflects in their pastries and drinks as well as their decor. It is a small space but they do have outside seating as well. The workers are very friendly and are happy to help you. What I really love about this place is that on certain days they have coffee flights where you can try all different creative flavors. When I went, I tried their bread pudding and it was delicious. Highly recommend.

Ginger A.

Heard about their coffee flight! Arrived around 10:30am, asked about the flight. They only serve it from 1-3:00pm. We were so disappointed to say the least, they had a sign up of things they were out of, that would've been nice to try, but that is the way it goes sometimes. We finally decided on a white mocha hot and mocha latte. Took a while to get our drink but was well worth it! It was a comfortable temperature to drink! The coffee itself was delicious! Location was crowded but does have outdoor seating. I wanted to try a beautiful pastry but nothing was labeled and we felt pressure from people behind us to order and move on.

Nutella Cream Latte
Rachel T.

Stopped by for an afternoon coffee, there was only another pair of people in so it was quiet during our stop. The employees were kind and patient as we reviewed our options. I tried the Nutella cream iced latte and it was such a great choice. I never knew I needed Nutella cream on a latte, but now I can't imagine not having it. If you're over in the Avalon area definitely stop in here for a coffee or a pastry, everything looked delicious! The Biscoff cheesecake is on my list for next time!

This place is so beautiful. I love the creative way of incorporating one of the staples of Puerto Rico. This is a Puerto Rican coffee shop and everything, from my experience, was authentic. The cafe con leche was made with cafe alto grande- the exact way my Titi would make it. The quesito melted in my mouth. And both the owners and the girls that served me were so sweet and willing to answer all the questions I asked. I called my family in PR to show them how beautiful this place was.

Bacon, Egg, Cheese Sandwich
Maria L.

Stopped in for a quick breakfast and coffee. Wasn't expecting chips with my breakfast sandwich, but I will admit I didn't check the menu or notice if there was another option. My coffee was really good and the sandwich on Cuban bread was a vibe. For sure will go back!

I first discovered Cloudhop one night after having dinner in Downtown Orlando. I did my go-to…read moresearch of "cookies near me," and this spot in downtown popped up. The person working that night was nice, and he explained how they'd be opening a new location on Alafaya at Waterford Lakes. That night, I got their chocolate cookie, and tried it when I got home. I was not impressed, and thought it was ok, but they were near closing time, so perhaps the cookies weren't as fresh. About a week or two later, I went to the Waterford Lakes location, and I was finally able to try their traditional chocolate chip cookie and their chocolate cookie again. Once again, I was not impressed. I find the cookies to be just ok. Flavor is serviceable, but it's not satisfying. The cookies aren't hard, but they're not soft enough either. I was left wanting and expecting better. I tried them a 3rd time recently, and I'm left feeling the same way. Even worse, last time they gave me the cookie in a half box container in which I didn't feel comfortable setting on the passenger seat, as the cookie would come off the half box. When I asked if I could have a proper box like before, I was told those were exclusively for cupcakes. The interior of the place is cute and all, but this shop doesn't do it for me.

When I got a bite…read morewith the flaky sea salt it tasted perfect, but there simply wasn't enough flaky sea salt for me to get that taste in every bite. So, it was a little bland for half the cookie. Also, it cost five dollars for one cookie. While this was a nice cookie, I don't think it was worth five dollars. As for service, when you walk in, the ordering device is right there in front of you for you to order. Nobody said a word to me even though I was standing there for quite a while waiting for my order. It was a little awkward and didn't feel super friendly. If I'm in the area and I'm craving a cookie, and I wanna spend a whole five dollars on one cookie, I would come here again. If you are a cookie fanatic, maybe you should check this place out.

The decor is minimal - tables and chairs of varying sizes, some French-themed pictures, a coffee mural and one gender neutral bathroom. There are a lot of coffee choices and a fair amount of French brunch items as well. I chose to try a butter croissant and a Parisian baguettine (a small baguette, but on this day, they were out of baguettines, so the sandwich was on a different type of French bread) with turkey. Cafe staff bring your food items to the table as customers are given numbers to place on their chosen table after ordering at the counter. My sandwich was good. I liked the creaminess the butter adds. But my croissant was burnt. I asked for another one but the two remaining croissants were only burnt to a lesser degree.
