My friend and I came here for coffee on a Sunday morning. Our barista was friendly and helpful. I got a vanilla latte with macadamia nut milk and it was really good and not too sweet. It was a beautiful, sunny day so we sat at the tables outside. The coffee, atmosphere, and service were great, I just wish the coffee wasn't so expensive (it was almost 7$ for a small latte)!

Cool vibe with students studying, academics chatting. Croissants are as good as France and they have some very interesting and unique latte syrups and flavors. Nice people, pretty latte art.

Delicious Churros, interesting hot chocolate and coffee creations. Best Churros I've had in the Triangle! Nice place to sit and sip and do some work/reading.

After days of hotel coffee, my cup of coffee at Cocoa Cinnamon was amazing! Barista was knowledgeable and extremely friendly! We are traveling and had to get it to go, so I appreciate they use eco friendly paper products as well! Huge thanks to the baristas for making us a great cup of coffee and being so nice!

Amazing coffee, terrible seating, steep prices. My favorite thing about them is their creative drinks.

I came to this location thinking they had churros. Instead they have the churro waffles which wasn't bad. I still prefer the churros. The service here was excellent! The gentleman that took my order answered all my questions and was very polite! I had the Al Mokha coffe which was nice and strong!

Pros: Drinks are alright. If you're into specialty coffee (or tea?) drinks, there are a ton of them. Slight cool hip local vibe. The only real sit-down coffee shop in the area.Cons: Practically no food options. Not the most comfortable place to work. Often crowded. Limited parking > 15 minutes.

This Cocoa Cinnamon location always has sweet folks working. They're usually more willing to strike up a conversation than baristas at other coffee shops in the area. My old standby is the Dr. Durham latte, but I love trying the rotating creations on the Wonder Menu and always ask the staff about their favorites. Always looking forward to my next trip to the Hillsborough Road Cocoa Cinnamon.Parking: There is limited, two-hour street parking. The small lot behind the cafe is shared with the neighboring architecture firm and also has a time limit per spot.
I needed a place where I could work remotely for a few hours in the middle of a weekday and as soon as I saw this coffee shop on Google Maps I was set on going. The barista was incredibly helpful and they gave me a stellar recommendation for the Durm Fog - I'm immediately addicted. Prices aren't cheap, but the quality is absolutely there and the volume was very satisfactory. The interior has a really nice vibe, the music is loud enough that you're aware of it but you can definitely still hold conversations easily. There is lots of interior seating, mostly bench styles with small, beautiful tables. Wifi was reliable in my experience and I absolutely want to come here again.Parking: Parking was pretty hard to come by and I had to circle the area for a bit before I found anything close, but I'm so glad I persisted. There are a few spots in the lot out back that are reserved for the cafe for 15 minutes, presumably for carry out. There is free parking down the side street though this was mostly full as there are lots of other small businesses all operating out of the same vicinity.Wheelchair accessibility: The entry is ground level and the threshold is smooth, not raised. Because of variety of bench seating, tables with chairs, and tables with benches, it would be relatively easy to find a place.

My only disappointment is that the large drip was 12 ounces, because it was delicious! The blueberry cheese danish that I got completely changed the course of my day, in a positive direction. Thanks!
