Hey there, coffee enthusiasts and foodies! Let me take you on a thrilling journey to Café Coqui, a hidden gem of a Puerto Rican coffee shop tucked away in the heart of Avalon Park. Prepare to be swept off your feet as you step into a world of vibrant flavors, friendly faces, and aromatic brews. Trust me, this place is an absolute treasure trove for your taste buds!

The Marvelous Latte Flight Adventure

Hold on tight, folks, because Café Coqui is about to take your taste buds on a wild ride with their incredible hot and/or cold latte flights! Picture this: you get to choose from a lineup of mind-blowing flavors that will leave you craving more. It’s like a rollercoaster of deliciousness, and you won’t want the ride to end.

 

Now, let’s talk about their cold latte flight. Brace yourselves for a Nutella Cream extravaganza! This beauty is made with an espresso shot, hazelnut, and topped with creamy Nutella goodness. Trust me, it’s like a little slice of heaven in your cup. Feeling fancy? Try their Iced Lavender Latte, which combines an espresso shot, lavender, vanilla, and is adorned with dried lavender. It’s like sipping on a fragrant bouquet of relaxation.

But wait, there’s more! The S’mores latte is a nostalgic dream come true, with an espresso shot, toasted marshmallow, graham cracker, chocolate, and a fluffy marshmallow topping. And for those seeking a taste of Puerto Rican perfection, indulge in the Dulce de Leche Latte. It’s an espresso shot infused with dulce de leche magic, drizzled with even more dulce de leche goodness. Are you drooling yet? I know I am!

Sandwiches That Make Your Taste Buds Salsa

Prepare yourself for a flavor explosion, my fellow food adventurers, because Café Coqui’s sandwiches are no joke. Brace yourself for some Puerto Rican flair that will transport you straight to the streets of Old San Juan.

First up, the Pastrami sandwich. Imagine thinly sliced pastrami, green peppers, onions, and Swiss cheese, all snuggled together on a heavenly Pan Sobao Bread. It’s like a savory symphony dancing on your taste buds.

But hold on tight, because the star of the show is the Tripleta. Get ready for a mouthwatering combination of beef steak, pernil, ham, lettuce, tomato, mayoketchup (yep, that’s a thing!), and a delightful crunch from potato sticks—all wrapped up in that glorious Pan Sobao Bread. Trust me, one bite of this sandwich will have you doing the salsa of pure delight!

Tres Leches: A Sweet Finale

Now, let’s talk about dessert, because no visit to Café Coqui is complete without diving into their homemade Tres Leches. This isn’t just any Tres Leches; it’s a slice of pure bliss. Picture a moist sponge cake soaking in a trio of milks, topped with a creamy finish. It’s like a heavenly embrace of sweetness that will have you reaching for seconds (or thirds—no judgment here!).

Final Thoughts: Café Coqui Beckons You!

In conclusion, my friends, Café Coqui in Avalon Park is the ultimate destination for a flavor-packed adventure. From the tantalizing latte flights that make your taste buds sing to the mouthwatering sandwiches that transport you to the streets of Puerto Rico, this place is a foodie’s dream come true.

Just a quick heads up: the latte flights are available daily only between 1 PM and 3 PM, so if you plan on visiting during the weekends, expect a bit of a wait for your latte flight. Trust me, it’s worth every minute as each flight is crafted with love and perfection. So, mark your calendars and get ready to experience the magic of Café Coqui!

So head on down to Avalon Park and immerse yourself in the vibrant atmosphere, indulge in the unforgettable latte flights, savor the Puerto Rican-inspired sandwiches, and end your journey on a sweet note with their divine Tres Leches. Café Coqui awaits you with open arms and tantalizing flavors that will make your taste buds dance with joy!
