The one area that could really use some attention is the outdoor seating. The tables are often dirty, the area feels a little neglected, and the couches are very worn out with cushions that are completely sunken in and uncomfortable. With some new outdoor furniture, cleaner tables, and a little more attention to the overall aesthetics, this could be such a beautiful and enjoyable outdoor space. We really like this coffee shop and hope they consider giving the patio a little refresh!

There are many factors that make a coffee shop special. For starters and I'm sure you'll agree the…read morecoffee has to be amazing. Not just okay, but the kind of coffee that gives you the boost you need to get through the day. And if you plan to stay, the space matters just as much. It should feel welcoming and comfortable, with enough room to work, meet, catch up, or simply slow down for a while. What makes the story of Chocolattés even more meaningful is where it began. In 2003, Chocolattés opened inside HealthPark Medical Center, a place where most people probably don't wish to spend their day. Yet, one cup of coffee at a time, they found a way to uplift visitors, staff, and families during some of life's more difficult moments. Over the next 12 years, Chocolattés expanded to all four major hospitals, bringing that same experience to even more people. Today, with two locations in Southwest Florida, that story has evolved into something you can enjoy outside the hospital walls. And the coffee? This is craft coffee in every sense of the word. Their beans are roasted in-house, and there is almost a science behind how they create each cup. You can tell there is intention behind what they serve. The prices are definitely on the higher end, but I think Chocolattés is one of those places where you can justify it whether you're treating yourself to a really good cup of coffee or need something a little extra to get you through a long day at work. Our go-to orders?

I ordered the Spanish Vibes and the Caramel Cloud, both drinks were sweet but tasty.

The view is also really pretty, and you can see the river while sitting there. Overall, it was a really enjoyable experience, and I'd definitely come back again.

The staff was warm and welcoming. She quickly prepared the order and gave some information on the store. I sensed this is an excellent place to relax and hang out with friends. Love the idea that they support local artists and vendors! Those ice creams, and mini pastries in the refrigerator look so appealing, you must come back to try them!

It can be confusing to find the place because it's located outdoors right in the middle of Edison & Ford Winter Estates. They open at 9am unless they state otherwise. It seems like they frequently update their Facebook and Instagram when they change their hours. I love that it's run by a mother and daughter duo and they have freshly made baked goods as well as delicious coffee. They have plenty of seating and there is an awning over some tables and umbrellas over others. Stop by, you won't regret it! It's so peaceful coming here and they even have a garden center next door. It's a perfect place to grab a coffee and walk!
