Won’t take cash - Edit
I only patronize businesses that are open to everyone. Since Coco will not accept cash, they exclude those who can’t get credit cards. They lost my business before I could try anything.

Tasty food and coffee - Edit
Probably the best vegan breakfast sandwiches I’ve had. Only downside is that it’s rather pricey, but it’s a good test on occasion

Delicious! - Edit
Very flavorful food with a nice variety on the menu. Service was very friendly. I enjoyed the pesto “chicken” panini while my niece had the avocado toast and my sister had the loaded avocado toast. In the excitement of meeting my family from out of town I forget to get pictures of our food. All of it was served with a nice presentation. We all had speciality coffee with an option for various nondairy milks. Very lovely brunch! I look forward to returning again!

Good food, cute and trendy decor. - Edit
My husband had the Pesto “Chicken” Argula Panini which he really enjoyed. I had the Quinoa & Avocado Buddha Bowl. I liked it but the “chicken” in my dish could have used some more flavor. Would definitely go back to try other options.

Incredibly good - Edit
So much to choose from on the menu. We had 3 courses and everything was outstanding. The service was efficient and friendly. A lovely atmosphere with big windows and bright decor. We had some difficulty using the online ordering but were able to place our order at the counter. Free parking in the little deck opposite. Really enjoyed our meal here while visiting Chapel Hill.

⭐️⭐️⭐️.5 - Edit
Rating after one dining experience so it’s subject to change. I’d give it a 4 if I could give (better) non-vegan restaurants a 5, but that’s another story. I haven’t tried the day menu yet so take that into account also. The whipped feta & fig crostini appetizer was delicious. Cocktails were simple but very good. The burger with beer cheese was good though the brioche was a bit too dense. The burger with wild mushrooms would be a pass for me in the future. The boyfriend really liked the parm fries but I thought they were, as the kids would say, mid. Dessert (crepe and chocolate chip cookie with ice cream) was okay. The crostini and service were the best of the experience. Pretty expensive overall but FWIW I can be very critical. I do wish the entrees were up to the same caliber as the crostini appetizer.
Read moreUpdate after second visit: Still incredibly expensive for what it is. The boyfriend ordered a “large” side of black bean, corn, red pepper salad for $5 and it was the tiniest ramekin. I’m not sure what makes it a large side because he ordered a “small” side of fresh fruit for $3.50 and it was served in the same size container.

Took some non vegan friends and they were impressed, especially loved the feta and fig toasts. Shared a Caesar salad too. Lentil tofu paneer curry was delicious!

Such a sweet place - Edit
We enjoyed our breakfasts here thoroughly while visiting. Tried a bunch of different options. I’m not fond of coffee in the US in general, but the cortado(with 2 extra shots) in Coco was delicious. We overheard the barista training the new girl, and he was so kind and patient. Great food and great staff. I wholeheartedly recommend.

AMAZING food - worth the drive! - Edit
We tried two of the breakfast sandwiches, which were the best vegan breakfast sandwiches we’ve ever had We also ordered the lemon poppyseed muffin which was incredible. We drove about 20 min. out of our way on our drive home from NC to visit, and I’m so glad we did! It was worth it. We got our items to-go and everything was packaged so nicely, too.

Very good worth a drive - Edit
I was staying in cary and they don't have the best vegan food, so this is totally worth the drive. Had a panini pretzels and fries all were very good, however 11 dollars for fries is a little ridiculous. The beer cheese and the flavors were on point, I will definitely be back next time I'm in town. One con is that you have to place your own order with a qr code and the system was super slow.

Wow! - Edit
This whole menu looks delicious, it was difficult to choose! I ended up with a chipotle bacon and egg sandwich, iced chai, green smoothie, and a chicken pesto panini for later. Everything was really tasty. The service was great, the place was cute, and the options were endless. I'm so glad I was able to stop here before leaving NC.

Cute Plant Based Cafe - Edit
Went here for breakfast! The breakfast sandwiches and muffins were good, but pricey. The cafe is very welcoming with huge windows and cute decor. They also have dinner and drinks in the evening. Will definitely go back.

Went here for breakfast today and was pleasantly surprised. We had the samoa cookie latte, blueberry scone latte, bagel breakfast sandwich, and the chipotle breakfast sandwich. The lattes were delicious and not overly sweet! The sandwiches were excellent as well. Will be back!
