I am so happy San Diego finally has a fun soda place! I love the fact that they have a drive through so it's really fast and easy to get your drinks. They have a big selection of different drinks you can get, from coffee, tea, sodas etc. I went for a dirty soda and was really good! I want to come back to try different kinds. I ordered a large and it was HUGE!!!! I didn't get to try the cookies this time, I thought it was a little pricey, but maybe next time read more

Ordered a large Beach Please (Dr. Pepper, vanilla and cherry) with Diet Dr. Pepper. Walk-up window was a bit confusing but service was VERY fast. Price was about $6 after tax for a large. There is outdoor seating & some parking. Our drink was okay. I probably wouldn't come here again, nothing special. read more

Easily, THE BEST chocalate chip cookie in San Diego! It was THICK, CHEWY AND SOFT. I loved it! There is a drive-thru and a walk-up window. This joint has a local, casual, retro vibe which I loved. There are tables on site if you decide to eat there. The set up looks more like a car wash but really good quality cookies. I would love to try their drinks next time. read more

I've been wanting to try this place for so long and am so glad we finally got to stop by! It's drive thru only so there's no hassle of needing to get out of your car anymore to order; however, you can opt to place your order online and pick up your goodies from their window in front too. Some things to keep in mind from what we've discovered: (1) they don't have any decaf options if you're getting coffee, so make sure you're ready to get caffeinated when you come here; (2) their sizes for iced coffee are gigantic--a large drink is 32oz! What we tried: Orange Blossom Mocha (from spring menu) - 3.5/5 Strawberry Sweetheart Matcha (from secret menu) - 3/5 Turtle Bay - 4/5 One & Only - 4/5 Overall, I enjoyed their cold brew options way more than the other two we got. We chose to have them neat rather than nitro, and I loved how bold that coffee flavor was on both drinks. They weren't too sweet either! The Orange Blossom Mocha was more heavily on the mocha side, which was fine, but I think I was expecting more of the orange flavor infused into the drink rather than just being on the soft top, while the Strawberry Sweetheart Matcha was just too light on the matcha flavor for me. Next time we visit, we're definitely trying their dirty sodas! read more

Wanted a quick drink and we were in the area so we decided to stop by. We ordered a Beach, Please which is a Dr. Pepper with vanilla crème and cherry, but we got it with diet Dr. Pepper instead. The walk-up window was confusing because there were two sides, but no one was there to help us. We had to go around and that's when one of the workers saw us to help take our order. We got our drink very quick and enjoyed it in the outdoor seating. Overall the drink was solid, but I wouldn't go out of my way to have it. read more

This is the second time I've been here and while I don't remember what I ordered my first visit I enjoyed it more than my latest. I got a medium beach please and a small pink flamingo. The drive thru was quick, as soon as I placed my order and paid it was ready. The beach please was too sweet but the pink flamingo didn't taste like anything. Still, the beach please was good. Next time I'll order it slightly less sweet. The coffee I got last time wasn't the best, so the dirty sodas and refreshers here are their best product in my opinion. Anywho, I'll be back to sample more and find my favorite. read more

My husband and I have had our eye on this place for about a year but every time we were in the area it was either closed or we were too full from dinner nearby to fit anything sweet. I'm glad we tried it! We got a box of 4 cookies with the chocolate chip, Dubai chocolate, blue playa, and the cookies and cream. Dubai chocolate is all the craze rn but it was our least favorite. The best was the blue playa with the cookies and cream coming in at a close second. The chocolate chip was excellent too. These are waaaay better than the cookies at Crumbl. They were rich, buttery, and chewy and crispy in all the right spots. We also got the Beach, Please dirty soda, which was good, but I've had better. We like the dirty sodas at Homestyle Hawaiian better. Prices are a little steep, but what place isn't these days? read more

Hey guys, The Big Gorger here, I have been coming to Coco Playa for awhile now and can I just say, absolutely amazing place. Influenced by the SLOMW (Secret Lives Of Mormon Wives) to come and try since we don't have a Swig in town but who needs that when we got Coco Playa. The workers are always so nice and helpful. I personally get the "Layla" drink which is Mountain Dew, mixed with coconut cream, mango puree, and strawberry puree. I sub out Mt Dew for Sprite though. They have DELICIOUS pretzel bites and cookies. Had two new cookies such as the Ube and Celebration Cake as you can see in the pictures. Both amazing as well. Overall, one of my favorite places to go after a nice tan at the beach / pool. Shoutout to Coco Playa for being the best. Best, The Big Gorger read more

Yet another drive thru coffee spot! This one has cute branding, with outdoor seating, a fun menu with a focus on coffee, and a chill vibe. I came here after seeing a social media ad but it's a little unclear how long they've been open - the outdoor seating is a little run down, one lane of the drive thru was closed, and the GPS struggled to actually navigate us here in a way that allowed us to pull in because it kept telling us to go in by the adjacent car wash (but there are one-way only signs). In any case, I used the walkup window to order the horchata iced coffee, half sweet, and a coconut refresher. Both were solid but I preferred the coffee. Menu has several tea options as well as dirty sodas, plus cookies. Check their social media for current specials like monthly drinks/flavors. They recently promoted a student discount, then people responded that the discount was not honored so YMMV. TIP: Make an account or use their app for discounts and points - I got a BOGO deal the next day but didn't want to deal with the traffic hassle again before heading out of town. read more

The cookies are so rich and gooey but my addiction is the sodas. Theres nothing like a Coco Crush with a Coke Zero base *chefs kiss* The location isn't the easiest to navigate but don't let that stop you. read more

What's not to love about coffee and cookies? The concept is great. I've driven by here so many times and I'm glad to have finally tried it. It's drive-through only and they've got a large coffee menu. I didn't try any of the coffees because it was kind of late in the day, but they were reasonably priced and there were a lot of options. I had a little bit of sticker shock initially when I bought the cookies. I got four and it was $20. But then the cookies were handed to me in this gigantic box that was quite heavy. I opened it up and there were four gorgeous cookies inside. I didn't get to try the Biscoff cookie dough because it was out that day, but we got a chocolate chip, a cookies and cream, a Dubai chocolate and a peppermint bark. All four were super tasty but I'm not kidding when I say it took three days for us to eat them. They held up well, just got to the last cookie today and it still tasted fresh. read more

This place is visually appealing and offers a great variety of drinks, from coffee to fruity energy options. Since it was my first time visiting, I wasn't sure what to order, but the customer service was excellent. The staff member was very helpful and took the time to explain a few drink options. I decided to try the Del Mar, which is made with espresso shots and brown sugar. Unfortunately, the coffee had a fruity flavor that didn't pair well with the brown sugar--it just wasn't my favorite. For a cookie and a large drink, the total came out to $15 read more

On the way out of OB I wanted to get something caffeinated but fun. This is what Coco Playa is about. They have dirty sodas so I tried my first one being the Beach Please. Its a unique drink. If you ever had a New York Egg Cream or kind of like a Root Beer Float without all the ice cream its like that. Very tasty and creamy. Very pleasant. I also opted for a La Jolla or Venice which was very very good. This wasnt Starbucks so the coffee to creamer and mix ratio was a lot better as it was balanced for more coffee. The SO had the Matcha Latte. Which was claimed the best they ever had. Lots of caramel drizzle on this. But still wasnt overly sweet. I also got a cookie. I had to know what does a $5 cookie taste like? Well is it worth it? I got the oddest one the Blue Playa. Theres a lot going on in this cookie. Lots of textures. Its not too sweet and the flavors and cookieness is packed. Was it a $5 cookie? I do not think so. It was scrumptious. I think it should be around the $3.50-$4.25 range. I didnt feel robbed after. read more

I was excited to try this place, especially their dirty soda section. I was disappointed during this visit. We got Beach, Please and Pink Flamingo. They were just ok. The chocolate chip cookie was loaded with chocolate chip. They charged you for no ice. Also, the menu posted is outdated. The actual price was higher. Overall, my experience was just ok. read more

Cute little place in the Midway District with a drive thru and a walk up window. Took my husband for his first Dirty Soda. The girl standing at the drive thru taking our order was super sweet and the girl at window was very nice as well. We both got the Beach Please and unfortunately it didn't look like the menu pic and didn't have the creaminess or flavors we expected, it was pretty watery. The Bacon Cheddar Scone was pretty bland, no bacon or cheddar flavor just tiny hard bacon bit like pieces and no cheesiness. My husband enjoyed the cheese danish. Will be back to try their coffees and cookies. read more

I have been wanting to try this place and I'm glad I stopped by. The Dubai chocolate cookie was amazing. I love the mango tea. The ones that I was not please is when I modified the drink. I suggest that you order what is in the menu with their concoction that has been proven to mix well. They have a lot of fun and delicious options. Also, order the cookies warm so you get the fresh batch. The service was good and friendly. It's nice that they have a drive thru option. read more

I stopped in here for an iced coffee and with a splash of milk. They didn't have one on the menu except their signature flavors with more sugar and flavors that I need or want, so I settled for an iced Americano. The iced Americano was decent, but definitely watered down given the manner the iced coffee was made. As a result, that robust coffee flavor was quite limited. Initially, they also put a limited amount of milk in the coffee, so I had to ask for more. The young lady at the window was friendly. There's no inside seating but there's some on the outside. This place seems to run mostly off their drive thru. read more

After obsessing over Swig, I was excited to find a dirty soda store in SD that compares. CoCo Playa is a conveniently placed drive through with dirty soda, smoothies, treats, etc. I appreciate that you can easily get in and out of the center without having to do a bunch of maneuvers or turnarounds to get back onto your route. There was no one in line around 3pm on a Sunday and someone took my order quickly. I opted for the small size "Ken" which is Diet Pepsi, Coconut, Vanilla and I added coconut creme. It was absolutely delicious and compared well to Swig. The only downside is they do not have Coke! I would probably come this way much more as I prefer Coke products. However this is definitely a good alternative to Swig if you're in the area and craving a dirty soda. read more

After coming home from visiting friends in Idaho and being spoiled with swig daily, I came here wanting a dirty soda after a quick google search suggested it. I'm genuinely very upset and disappointed. My main reason for being upset is the lack of apology from the employee who cashed me out. When she handed me my beverage she let go of the cup before I was even able to get a good hold on it, causing it to spill all over my car and body. No apology, no empathy. Nothing? Like at all, it was very clear she did not care and just gave a very blunt almost sarcastic sounding "do you want napkins?" (huh?? Obviously? what?) While she may have given me napkins and remade my drink, which was the bare minimum. I can't help but feel stuck on the fact there was no actual apology over the fact she dropped my drink into my had before I was able to hold it properly, something as simple as "I'm sorry" would have been enough. It's not unreasonable to want or expect a simple "I'm sorry that happened" Even more disappointing was my flamingo drink, it was not good and had a cough syrup flavor. As soon as I pulled over into the gas station, to continue cleaning up my seat and car floor, I threw it away. It was not at all anything like the many different yummy drinks I tried at swig. Obviously I know coco playa is different and not swig but it's just not good nor would I personally come back. The only decent product was the cookie, while it was cold it was at least soft and tasted like a cookie. Disappointed and Unsatisfied, sadly will not be returning as it does not seem worthwhile. read more

"Sweeter days start here"... and they're not lying! Coco Playa is the perfect grab-and-go spot -- with a drive-thru that pops you right back onto the freeway, it's ideal for a quick coffee run, dirty soda fix, or snack before the beach. The vibe is fun, colorful, and beachy, with friendly staff that make the experience even better. My favorites: * Category 6 - 6-shot Coronado BOMB (caffeine lovers, this is it!) * Peachy Keen - peach, strawberry & coco crème * La Jolla - caramel & vanilla breve magic * Beach Please - Dr. Pepper, cherry & vanilla crème Pro tip: Add Red Bull to any refresher for an energy boost. Don't skip the cookies -- Nutella Bueno, Red Velvet, and Cookies & Cream are unreal -- and the pretzel bites with gooey cheese? Game over. Fast service, bold flavors, and some of the best cookies I've had. Definitely worth the stop! read more

Who doesn't love late night cookies? We just happened to park near this spot on the way to a concert and decided to impulse buy some snacks. The cookies weren't warm but they were huge and chewy/moist on the inside. I also got the Pom beach puncher with lemonade, which mostly tasted like pink lemonade and not so much pomegranate. This place very much feels like a variation of a Sonic to me with different food options. It's mostly a drive thru with a walk up window, and some seats on the outside but no real indoor seating. The location is in a very busy intersection so if I wasn't on foot I probably would've skipped this spot. I do think it's a good option if you have a late evening sweet tooth and need a quick fix without the frills of a fancy bakery read more

I hate to give a bad review because I know it affects business but they only had 3 of the 8 cookie options available. The cookies were not served warm like they were supposed to be. I tried the cookies and cream one. It was decent size but slightly grainy from the sugar and just ok. The passion fruit pomegranate refresher tasted like watered down lemonade. It was pink but very unflavorful. The person at the window took the payment pad back when it was at the tip screen and tipped themselves. I probably would have tipped but felt it very presumptuous and didn't like that. read more

Tried out this cute cafe for the first time and was greeted by friendly service in the drive thru. I had a matcha latte that just tasted like milk with a hint of matcha and vanilla. I wish there was more powder to make it taste like matcha. The menu was mainly cookies which didn't work for me since I'm not a pastries person but I had the pretzel bites and the cheese was good, didn't stand out. I think I'd come back if the menu was more than just cookies and refreshers. Cute branding! read more

This place is going downhill fast. I used to think the cookies were really gourmet... even rivaling Batch and Box. But today my cookie tasted no better than Otis Spunkmeyer. The sign and logo give the appearance of a hip cookie and coffee place but when you pull up, the place is trashed with stickers, signs and dirty windows and looks super junkie. Their coffee is not craft. Coffee syrups are not homemade ...all Torani, etc. Cold Brew is weak. What a shame. They could be really good if they tried. But I think I'm out. read more

This place is my new obsession! I have been craving Swig (an Utah specific dirty soda place) and I am so glad I've found something similar. The prices are very reasonable for what you're getting. Also, the packaging couldn't be cuter! A perfect summer vibe. As for the actual drinks, I tried: - Create your own: Dr. Pepper with lime and coco crème This was my favorite because the flavors meshed so well together! The coconut flavor really came through. So refreshing. 10/10! - Coco-Colada Very delicious and tart. 8/10 Additionally, I tried the cookies & cream cookie and WOW! I can't believe I'm saying this but I think this is one of the best cookies I've had in my life. It was perfect. Warm and gooey with crispy edges. I loved how it wasn't too sweet. 12/10!! I can't wait to come back! The service was also amazing. read more

Beach, Please I'm usually a sipper, not a chugger, but the second the "Beach, Please" (Dr Pepper, cherry syrup, vanilla cream) hit my hands at this newish outpost for coffee, cookies, and zhuzhed-up sodas in the Midway District , all dignity evaporated.

First off, great idea on combining a Crumbl-esque shop with coffee. The correct category for this place is "dessert" shop rather than "coffee" shop though. I had passed by several times and was very curious, so I stopped last week and got the Nutella cookie and the Venice iced coffee. The cookie was OK- just really sweet, of course. But I did not like the coffee at all. I felt like there was no flavor whatsoever. Just espresso and milk. I definitely wouldn't order it again. The service was friendly and quick. I paid something like $15 for this dessert stop which is more than I would pay again, but I had to try it once. I went through the drive thru so the ambiance in my car was cool. read more

I've driven past this place and not known it was there. This weekend my daughter and her friend asked me to take her there to try it. It was lovely. We all ordered different refreshers and a cookie. I had the Seas the Day with a lemonade base. My daughter ordered the Peachy Keen with a Starry (like sprite or 7-up) base. I liked the bubbles, so next time I'll use a soda base as well instead of a lemonade base. I ordered the chocolate chip cookie because that's really all a girl needs and it did not disappoint!! My daughter has the Rocky Road and her friend the Dubai Chocolate cookie. All were delicious. They were saying the rotate cookies now so they won't always have all their flavors at the same time. All the more reason to go back again and try another one. read more

The staff was so nice and friendly but the coffee was the worst coffee I have ordered from somewhere me and my husband both took one sip and then tossed the coffee it left the worst taste in my mouth and was not good at all super disappointed my son did get a cookie and he loved that unfortunately would not come back here. read more

CoCo Playa caught my attention while we were passing by because of the shop vibrant color. It looks like a beach shop but at Kurtz st. Instead. Their menu included coffee, dirty soda, Latte, cool refreshers, baked goodies,and cookies. They are specialized in their customized, infused soft and energy drinks. For example, you can choose flat or Fizz drink, Lemonade, black or green tea or red bull base. You can choose your base and your flavor to create your unique drink. The barista was such a sweet young lady. She was very helpful and friendly. We ordered Large Mango Tango Fizz / Lemonade, and two large Peachy Kean Fizz / Lemonade. The large size was enormous! I didn't expect that size at all for a large size. The drinks were similar in taste to Italian cream soda. They were refreshing in this hot summer. We also ordered white chocolate Macademia nuts cookies, cookie & cream cookies, and Nutella Bueno. The macademia nuts was buttery, chewy with crunchy macadamia. The cookies and cream cookie was ooey gooey, soft and chewy. It was my favorite.The nutella bueno was like a very rich chocolate chips cookie. It was good but very sweet for me. In general, their cookies were excellent! It is a nice spot to try and enjoy their refreshing drinks and their fresh cookies. read more

I stopped by CoCo Playa to try their dirty sodas since I'd never had one before and was curious how it tasted. I ordered the Beach Please, but honestly, it just tasted like regular soda to me.
