Coffee: 4/5
The coffee at Coma Y Beba is really good, though definitely not fancy. The coffee is strong, satisfying, and the best part? You get double the amount of coffee compared to any third-wave coffee shop, and at a great price.
Atmosphere: 2/5
Let’s face it—Coma Y Beba is a bit empty. On all three visits, I’ve been the only customer, which is a shame because the service is great. It's not a place to go if you're looking for a trendy, bustling atmosphere, but it has its own quiet charm. The service is top-notch here, and they’re one of the few places where I can eat something while following my gluten-free diet (thanks to doctor's orders).
Bottom line
Coma Y Beba is definitely not cool or hip, but it's a solid choice for coffee, especially if you’re after something simple and generous. It may not have the vibe of a trendy café, but it's perfect if you’re looking to eat a small snack and enjoy good coffee without the fuss. The name says it all—"Coma Y Beba" means eat and drink, and that's exactly what you'll do here. I really hope this place stays open, as a news article I found and my own experience paints a very bleak economic picture of the entire Castle Square complex.
