Fun location in Durham. Garage doors were closed when we visited as it was very windy and cold. You get a lot of sunlight. Fast service, you go to the counter and wait for your order. Pastries are given to you as soon you order. We noticed a toaster after we ate our pastries but you can use it. Decent space for indoor seating plenty outdoor seating. Great flavor of all our drinks.

The tastiest mocha latte I've had. The barrita did an excellent job and added a heart design (was better before I took the photo). The richness of the chocolate and the taste of the Cinnamon is delicious. I had to really control myself because I just wanted to drink the whole thing quickly it was good. They have some tables outside that you can sit at. Inside is small with a few stools and standing area where you can drink inside. I think most order to-go.

Wonderful cafe near the heart of downtown Durham. It's one is one of three locations in the area, each with it's own unique vibe and flavor.
My visit was on a lazy, warm July afternoon. It was quiet with only about two or three other patrons scattered about.
There was very little seating available inside. However, the large and shaded patio area have plenty of places perch. They did a lovely work to make this area inviting and cozy: expansive views of the Durham skyline in the distance and the beautiful blooming patio sunflowers are awesome.
What made this visit extra special was the barista. He went out of his way to accommodating and friendly; taking the time to explain the menu and make suggestions.
And since I was fairly new to the area, he spent time filling me on on the city particulars (weather, events, etc.).
It's stellar service like this that makes loyal customers. I am definitely putting Cocoa Cinnamon my "must comeback" list...fabulous place.

House-made artisan chocolate decaf mocha! The equal of the best mochas anywhere.
Accessible, with a restroom available to customers.
Lots of seating in the shade outside. I’m a weenie so I stood at a high top table inside with the air conditioning.

One of my favorite coffee shops! My partner got a DURM fog with macadamia nut milk, and thought it was really tasty. I really liked the orange blossom in it was amazing from the sip I had - if you like London fogs you’ll definitely love this version. I got an iced Dr. Durham latte with double espresso and oat milk and I really enjoyed it! The house made vanilla bean syrup is really good and I was pleasantly surprised by how well the ginger and black lava salt tasted with it.
The prices are fair and you definitely get your money’s worth, plus you get to support an independent latina owned coffee shop instead of a big corporate chain. I ordered on their app and my order was ready by the time I got there.

Went here for a afternoon pick me up. They have a pretty good selection.
They sell coffee bags, but I think only jay z can afford them. They were $35 a bag.
I’d recommend going for just a to go.
Good cofffee for sure

I just randomly stopped by today— just now. I know nothing about coffee except black straight up it’s intimidating to order coffee when you don’t know anything about it. The two girls behind the bar were great they surprised me with the coffee shops signature coffee. It was fabulous my only regret is I wish I had gotten a bigger one. This will be a regular stop on my way home to Apex maybe one day I will be able to sit and enjoy the outside at one of there bistro tables, thanks girls!!

Ordered two specialty lattes (harvest and mocha something) and cinnamon pull-apart bread! Yum! Atmosphere inside was amazingly cozy. Outdoor area was rustic and pet friendly with tons of sitting room to enjoy weather on a sunny day.

I had a great experience at Cocoa Cinnamon. I came from Raleigh to purchase some Little Waves coffee beans, which my husband and I just discovered and LOVE. I grabbed a drink (or two) while I was there. Savannah took my order and even stepped around the counter to give me advice on which coffee beans to buy. They were very friendly and helpful and definitely made my experience more enjoyable.
