Coral Cafe

The espresso and coffee drinks are excellent and served with Aloha. This place is a local hidden treasure. It’s locally owned and operated. There’s a small seating area. Keep in mind it is owner operated and hours may vary. (M-Sa) check Instagram for updates. There’s parking out front on Victoria and in the parking structure on Young street.

Coral Café is in my work neighborhood, tucked inside of the Medical Arts building. For lunch I had the turkey and swiss panini with an iced peppermint mocha. The panini was pressed with muscle and came with a slight crisp to it. What may seem like a simple sandwich to make is often done wrong, Coral Café nails it with a panini that is light, super flavorful and well balanced, pretty much a perfect panini. I'm a pretty traditional coffee drinker and I especially love the taste of coffee so the iced peppermint mocha was outside of my comfort zone. I loved that the iced peppermint mocha still had a very bold espresso taste(which is freshly pressed) but came with a slightly sweet peppermint sidekick. Don't let this petite, breezy open air café fool you, if you're looking for a spot that makes high quality coffee and also happens to make the perfect panini Coral Café is this place.
