About Cacao Coffee & Chocolate Co

Cacao Coffee & Chocolate Co is a coffee shop on Orchard Link in Coventry, with hot chocolate at the centre of the menu. Hot chocolate is served with a candle underneath to keep the cup warm, which suits drinkers who like to linger over it. That includes the Belgian milk version, which comes in a large size with whipped cream and marshmallows as add-ons. Coffee drinkers can order a Belgian mocha, served hot or iced, and matcha also appears on the drinks menu. Food runs to cakes, croissants, muffins, sandwiches and panini-type items to go with a drink. Inside, sofa seating gives visitors a place to settle in.

Customer Review Summary

Hot chocolate is what reviewers return to most, especially the large Belgian milk version with added whipped cream and marshmallows, which one diner calls not too sweet and another praises for arriving with a small candle underneath to keep it warm. The Belgian mocha, served iced or hot, and a matcha that one reviewer ranks among the city's best follow close behind. Several also mention the outdoor seating on sunny days, and a few say they studied on a laptop or on the sofa without feeling judged. Food draws less comment, with one reviewer calling the menu basic, mostly croissants, muffins and a few panini-style items, though others mention cakes and sandwiches. Service splits the reviews. Some describe friendly staff and quick drinks, while others complain that staff hurried customers along, with one server asking diners still eating whether they were done. Another reviewer says an order came out wrong twice, and a late Saturday visit near closing met with a curt "we're closed now."

    “Bad attitude from employees. They close at 5pm on sat, I arrived 4.45 to pick up something quick. Without even saying hello, I got a rude “just to let you know we’re closed now” they also kicked another customer out who was still eating and drinking. Went back to tell them I saw online closes at 5pm then they told me they can sell to take away… but no thanks, it looks dirty inside anyway and a dull place”

    “I had a 10/10 exceptional service. The employees there treated me so well. Especially this one employee named Ami. Their hot chocolate quality is so good too.”
  • Alina Pol
    “Lovely place and good drinks… but service is very poor. Girls look at clients as we owe them something. Would not come back.”
  • Niall Sharkey-Evatt
    “Amazing but affordable drinks, cakes and sandwiches. The service is always with a smile and your never left waiting for ages. Couldn't recommend this place enough 11/10.”

    “This coffee shop is honestly one of the best in coventry. It's a bit of a hidden gem it feels like, because a lot of people I've spoken to have never been. Pros : Amazing matcha (maybe the best I've had in Coventry), great service as the people working there both times I've been have been so kind and sweet, Great drinks menu, nice vibe inside, inside and outside seating. The outside seating on a sunny day was so so lovely! Good music inside, I studied with a laptop on my first visit and I felt no judgement which I think some cafes make you feel judged when you come in to study. Cons : Food menu is quite basic. A few croissants and muffins etc that I doubt they make instore and in terms of savoury - they have a few panini type foods but some brunch type options could be cute but it's okay, can't have everything.”
