Colattao Coffee House

Colattao is such a cozy spot! The decor is warm and inviting, filled with art that gives it a creative and welcoming feel. It's the kind of place where you can easily settle in with a coffee and get some work done.The barista was super friendly and offered recommendations since it was my first time. I went with the ham and cheese croissant, which was buttery, flaky, and absolutely delicious. Definitely a great choice!For my drink, I ordered an iced americano with brown sugar cinnamon and a dash of almond milk. It was smooth, perfectly balanced, and had just the right amount of sweetness. I'll be ordering that again for sure.I also couldn't help but admire the pastry case-- everything looked amazing. I already know I'll be back to try the crumb cake next time!I'm really looking forward to returning, especially with my laptop to get some work done in such a relaxed environment. If you're looking for a great coffee shop with a welcoming vibe, delicious food, and friendly service, I highly recommend checking out Colattao!

Let me tell y'all about Colatto Coffee House; it's THAT spot. I heard about it from the Virginia Café Passport I found online, so I figured I'd check it out. When I tell you it was packed, I mean PACKED, but after my visit, I completely see why. It has a really cute homey vibe, so I can see why people would want to stick around and hang out. Just a heads-up, finding a seat might be tricky with how busy it gets; however, my friends and I lucked out. Right after we ordered our food and drinks, somebody was leaving, so we snagged their spot.Now let's get into the food and drinks because whew, everything was hittin'! I had the iced peppermint mocha with oat milk, and it was the perfect balance of sweet and minty. For food, I tried the strawberry cuffin (a muffin/cupcake hybrid, genius, right?) and the Cali breakfast sandwich with sausage, egg, cheese, and avocado on a croissant. Listen, EVERYTHING was fresh and straight-up delicious. That sandwich? Melt-in-your-mouth good. The cuffin? Light, sweet, and so creamy on the inside with the strawberry filling.Colatto has definitely earned its buzz. If you're in Virginia Beach, you gotta pull up and try it. Just be ready for the crowd, but trust me, it's worth it. I Highly recommend!

Very busy and limited seating, but good vibes...Loved my dark chocolate habanero iced coffee and my apricot chicken & cheese croissant! My coffee tasted just as the name suggests, sweet with a little bit of a spicy kick. My croissant...tasted better than I thought it would...sweet and savory...the perfect blend of flavors!Despite being very busy and having limited seating, the service was outstanding and I was served within a timely manner. Although my friend and I ended up sharing a large corner table with 2 strangers, everything was everything! Cool people, great vibes, great food and drink all made for an enjoyable experience!I'm looking forward to another visit in the very near future!

The ambiance inside of Colattao is unmatched. Most notably, the attention to detail in the decoration-- from the tiny nods to the owners' culture to the curated nick nack/gift area that you can browse as you wait for your drink-- it all makes for a well rounded cafe experience.It's difficult to find seating inside due to the smaller space and how busy it can get, but this is just a testament to the popularity of the cozy setting and wide range of quality drinks. I tried a few different offerings from the holiday specials, which proved to be good, ordered both hot and cold. I am looking forward to returning next time and trying the delicious looking baked treats that I spotted in their display case!

Let me tell you about these holiday vibes! The gingerbread chai was like drinking the holidays in a cup, it was so so good! Always great, relaxing music and a good place to relax and get a coffee and hangout. Not too many plugs, so if you are coming to do work, make sure you are fully charged!

I got a seasonal drink, the iced pumpkin bread latte with oat milk ($7) it was made in about 7 minutes. The drink was pumpkin like and was quite smooth with the flavor. It was just the right amount of sweetness for a fall drink. The coffee tasted good and gave me a good caffeine rush! The staff were very nice and sweet and the interior was very cozy for a cafe. It was a bit crowded which is a good sign that they are a good coffee shop. Overall a good experience, I would come back again! Drink(50%): 8.0Staff/service(25%): 8.0Value(25%): 6.0Overall: 7.5/10

I went here on a Saturday morning hoping to do a little work before going Christmas shopping. I quickly took my laptop back to the car because this place was loud and packed, which is not a bad thing because it means the place is pretty good. The place is so cute. It's decorated like a cafe in Paris. All the the seats were taken so I got my drink to go. I got the nutcracker which was a white chocolate mocha with toffee. It was really good. There were quite a few food options as well. If you are looking for a cool coffee spot to socialize and enjoy great drinks this is the place for you. Just get there early!

It is SUCH a cute shop that was PACKED!!!! I ordered two iced coffees (churro latte and dark chocolate habanero) but the latter came hot. The owner fixed it and was awesome about it too. Really appreciated how she handled that too! The churro latte was a tad too sweet for me but super flavorful! The dark habanero one was delicious (but toeing the line on a bit too sweet).The Cruffins...holy cow. Those are dangerous! Looooooved the Oreo and strawberry ones a lot and the apricot was good but definitely not flavor grenades like the Oreo and strawberry ones!! I'm so glad we checked them out and definitely would've been a regular if we still lived down here.

Best coffee I've had in a long time! The reviews were right on target! This place will not disappoint!! Sandwich was delicious and cake was divine!!

Every month, I take my mom and grandma to a new coffee shop. This tradition combines my love for family and coffee, making each visit special.Our latest adventure led us to Colattao Coffee House, and it was beautiful! The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The coffee? Absolutely phenomenal. I can't wait to get another Churro Latte with almond milk - my mom and I couldn't stop raving about it! My grandma, who's more of a decaf drinker, enjoyed hers as well.One of my favorite features was the walls adorned with cups, some of which were even handmade! The vibe of the place was exactly what I look for in a coffee shop - cozy, inviting, and filled with friendly service. Colattao Coffee House has definitely earned a spot on our list of favorites.
