    Monte Cristo croissant sandwich w/Dolce Banana
    Damien J.

    Sophia and I made the trek to Virginia Beach to have breakfast here at this little spot in the Haygood/Independence area. I forgot how I found out about this spot, but they've been around in the area since 2023 and actually reopened after remodeling months ago. Let's see how this visit turned out. When we parked in the lot, we saw a few people sitting outside. Mind you, we got there before 8:30am. Luckily, they had tables available. The decor inside was beautiful. From personal pictures to artwork, it was a sight to see and feel. Even the bathroom is wonderful. When you order upfront, the dessert section is there for customers. I didn't choose any, but it's enough to make you buy literally every item made. Kudos to the staff for all of this. For ordering, we had to place it up front where they'll bring it to our table via a given number. For mine, we chose the following: -Monte Cristo croissant sandwich consisting of ham, Swiss cheese, rasberry jam and cream cheese with powdered sugar on top. Truly, truly delicious. Each ingredient worked perfectly here. And I love that this sandwich was homemade. Enjoyed every bite. Sophia had the turkey, egg and Swiss cheese croissant sandwich and enjoyed it. -Dolce Banana iced latte which is Dulce de Leche, banana and cold foam. Well made and not too sweet. I have to say it went very well with my sandwich. Sophia's was iced latte with sugar-free vanilla which she gave thumbs up. Both Sophia and I really enjoyed being here. A very calm atmosphere where you felt right at home. We will definitely return here :)

    Boy, is Colattao a place to be on a weekend! I saw the busy parking lot, but found a spot pretty easily, as I walked up I saw the no laptop rule on weekends due to crowds, and once I opened the door I was greeted by a line snaked to the door of about 15 people in front of me. I almost bailed, but it moved quickly and probably only waited about 5-10 minutes total. There is a ton of seating inside, each nook and cranny seems to have a different feel, there are bar seats in front of the windows to maximize seating and there are comfy leather chairs by the fireplace and a mix of nooks in the back areas with decor and mood lighting. Definitely the thing home-y coffee shops are made of and there isn't another like this in the area that comes to mind. Friendly cashier and a gorgeous, stuffed glass case filled with cookies, cheesecakes, babka, muffins and many other delicious treats. All looked wonderful. They have about 5-6 warm sandwiches and seasonal monthly changing coffee flavors above and beyond the normal menu. Vibes inside are strong - I LOVED the decor and the comfy feel with a fireplace in the center, mismatched chairs and wall art and beautiful odds and unique ends from all over. It's really cool. I went lite on this trip as I had just finished brunch with a friend. My iced oat milk latte (large) was pretty watery and only tasted like oat milk with no espresso so, I'll have to give it another try on a day not so busy. I wouldn't come specifically for the coffee based upon that experience, more for vibes and pastries to hang out during the week if I find myself in the area. But, based solely upon that, I would 100% come back.

    Service is top notch l! Bakery items is delicious, toasted coconut latte is amazing, any latte can be made to match as well.

    Heading here mid morning on a Thursday during the summer, I was absolutely astounded that it was as busy as it was! A few seats were left, but it was truly a coffee shop where folks were chatting, working, and enjoying a cup of coffee and it was absolutely invigorating. I had a spicy mocha and snagged a pistachio cruffin as well as orange scone and every single thing was absolute luscious! The scone was perfectly baked, the coffee the perfect mix of decadent and spicy, and the cruffin big enough to share with the chocolate and pistachio flavors blended brilliantly. I can't believe I haven't been here until now and I absolutely must go back, although I shudder to think of how insane it would be on the weekend. I wish it were a wee bit less busy because the interior decor was a whole mood, one I'm here for and would absolutely love to sip a beverage and enjoy, without the hubbub.

    Great coffee and good atmosphere. Desserts were AMAZING! Def would go again. Staff was also very polite and helpful. I appreciated the no laptop on the weekends to allow for more people to come and enjoy.

    The ambiance of this place is awesome. Very cozy lighting and fun artwork. The Cuban sandwich was good but my favorite is the pistachio tres leches, I've had it an unhealthy amount of times. The lattes are also always amazing. They have fast service as well.

    The place outside look so calm till you come close and see the long line. Inside you feel the vibrant and festive decoration from World Cup and cozy and warm ambience put together. It's a warm active environment but warm, classy and vintage decors. They also sell boho merch. The cashier to the waiters are busy but easy to talk to. The food offering are large and looks so delicious laid out. The muffins and pastries are large but not expensive. My chicken apricot sandwich is a must. The pesto mozzarella sandwich is really rich. The mango cheesecake yummy. My cold mocha coffee delicious. The muffins are large but taste stands out. I truly enjoyed my experience here and plan to bring back my friends and family. Thank you Colattao for this rich experience. This place is a must visit in Va. Beach.

    Cortado

    What a cool place. The ambiance pays homage to their Colombian heritage, and does their service, and their coffee. The staff is warm and friendly. The Cortado is delicious. I am not from this area, but I will add Colattao Coffee House to my list of stops when I visit Virginia Beach.

    The coziest coffee shop in VB! From the baked goods, to the specialty drinks, Colattao has such great offerings. There is something for everyone here! I loved the cozy atmosphere here, especially the cute mismatched plates, mugs, and saucers. It feels like you're stepping into someone's chic and welcoming home. The cheese danish & leek and parmesan were absolutely delightful. My husband loved his vanilla cinnamon horchata and I loved my house coffee. Definitely the best hot coffee I've had in VB. We will be back!

    Ham, egg and cheese croissant sandwich

    Beautiful cafe with impeccable decor, wide selection of sweets and baked goods, and delicious sandwiches and coffee. Staff are very friendly as well.

    Belle A.

    Always great, friendly service at this beautiful place!! The drinks and pastries are always so fresh and delicious!! We ordered the Chai latte ($6.75), the Dulce Banana ($9), the Coco Beach ($8), the marshmallow cookie dough cake ($8.75), the Triple Berry tart ($5.95), and the small box of 8 Alfajors ($12). Everything was fresh and flavorful, however, as with everything else, pricier as well!

    Chicken apricot sandwich + Churro Latte
    Sequoyah V.

    Came back home to visit family and wanted to check this place out. I first tried going around 10am on a Friday and it was packed. No seating available and the line was literally to the door. I tried again around 11am on Sunday and it was still very busy, but the line was a little shorter and we were able to find a seat. I'd definitely come prepared for a packed house, because a friend warned me about that before I went and they were not lying. That being said, the atmosphere was great. The decor and overall vibes were really unique and honestly just nice to look at. Everything was clean, well run, and the staff was helpful. The cashier answered all my questions and helped guide me toward my breakfast choice. I ordered the chicken and apricot sandwich and it was delicious. It had chicken, cheese, and what I'm assuming was an apricot spread. There wasn't an egg on it and I did expect one, but it honestly still tasted great without it (not sure if adding one is an option). I also got the churro latte and it was really good. Everything felt intentional, even down to the plates and cups. You can tell a lot of thought went into the experience. The only downside is the seating situation. The place fills up fast, and once it gets crowded it's hard not to feel rushed when people are standing over you waiting for a table. Overall though, the food, coffee, and vibe were worth it.

    Candace K.

    Yes! Go here and try everything. That's what we did, we ordered a little bit of everything and it was so good. They redid the location so there is more room to sit and relax. They gave a bunch of options when I had questions and I'm so glad they did. What we got: The apricot chicken sandwich 10/10 The churro latte - extra sweet 9/10 Beef empanada - 10/10 Strawberry cheesecake - 8.5/10 Apple cruffin - 7/10 (needs more filling) Pan - 4/10 Salted Maple Latte - 6/10

    If you love burritos, you need to track down The Coop food truck. Hands down my favorite food truck…read morein Virginia Beach! I stopped by during their pop up at Farmhouse Brewery and, once again, they did not disappoint. One thing you need to know: their burritos are massive. We're talking "the size of your head" big, so come hungry or be ready for some epic leftovers. The menu is small and focused (usually around four burrito choices), but every single one is packed with quality ingredients and flavor. The Coop spends most days serving on base, but keep an eye out for their local pop-ups. They're always worth chasing down. This time around, I ordered the Pepper Jack Chicken Burrito which was grilled chicken breast, maple bacon, melty pepper jack cheese, and their signature Coop Sauce, all bundled up in a warm tortilla. Every bite was the perfect balance of hearty, savory, spicy, and just a hint sweet from the bacon. Their Coop sauce is one of a kind. Tangy, and delicious. I'm sure adding an egg would take it to the next level (that's an option on all burritos). My friends had the Breakfast Burrito! This one comes with fluffy scrambled eggs, sharp cheddar cheese, juicy sausage, more of that craveable maple bacon, herby potatoes, and (of course) the signature Coop Sauce. They raved about every bite. I appreciate that The Coop keeps things simple with their streamlined menu and focus on top-notch burritos. Whenever I see them around town, I make it a point to stop ... even if there's a line, it moves fast and is absolutely worth the wait. Whether you're looking for a new lunch favorite or just crave seriously great street food, The Coop is a true gem on the Virginia Beach food truck scene. Can't wait to catch them at their next pop-up!

A family owned restaurant with amazing service that makes you feel like you're at home. All 6 of us finished our entire plate. I have never written a review for a restaurant before but I felt compelled to after this experience.

It's hard to describe, but you can sense the warmth before your food even arrives. We were greeted as soon as we walked in, and I immediately noticed the thoughtfully chosen portraits on the walls that added so much character to the space. I ordered the fried fish with potatoes and eggs, along with a mango smoothie. The fried fish was the stamp of approval for me it was so good that I already know I have to come back and try more items on the menu. The mango smoothie, blended with pineapple, was fresh, smooth, and absolutely delicious. I arrived right when they opened and was seated immediately, but by the time I left, there was already a line of people waiting for a table. That alone says a lot. Happy Cafe is the kind of place that leaves an impression. Great food, genuine hospitality, and an atmosphere that feels like home. I highly recommend it.
