Caffe Cocina

This is becoming my new fav coffee/cafe place and I live in Bremerton. I've drove by this stand many times not thinking much of it. I first tried them at their front st location. A Cuban sandwich and iced chai. The food was very well done and chai was unique and I learned made locally. I followed them on social media and noticed they have many unique drinks and seem to really care about the quality of food they serve.
I drove by the stand not long ago and decided to go through. I went to the wrong entrance and realized it's much bigger than just a drive Thu. You can park and go in. They even serve beer and wine! I got a toasted cinnamon mocha one time and tried a simple iced mocha the next. Everything is outstanding here. I couldn't believe how good just a regular mocha was. Another thing that stands out is how attentive the staff are. They were helpful with suggestions, I didn't feel rushed and they helped me figure out my points. They all seemed really cool and friendly!
I haven't gone into the drive Thu stand yet but gonna check it out next time. The other location has outdoor seating too and I wanna go up next time. The inside downstairs was very warm and inviting

Food is sooo good. Customer service is not great. Just in general they seem inconvenienced to have a customer there at all both times we have been. Coffee is great also.

What a hidden little gem. Hubby and I were just craving a good sandwich, we're walking by and saw their sign outside...highlighting their sandwiches! Went inside and ordered their Savage Melt and Turkey Avocado Melt. Choices of bread included Dave's Killer bread which I love (hubby had sourdough), and they were better than most restaurant sandwiches. Delicious - we will be back!!

Enjoyed another great breakfast only this time we went to downtown location. Ham, egg and cheese Croissant sandwiches and Turkey, cheese, avacado bagel. Son in law ordered burritos, some pumpkin donuts. Everything was great. Irish cream latte and hot apple cider were wonderful.

We love this spot. This is what you want in a local coffee shop. Great that they have a drive through, and parking in back. Staff is super friendly and helpful. We loved the smoothie bowl. Every time we are I. Town, we will get our coffee here.

Their avocado, turkey melt is amazing!! Sometimes they even have live music outside. Right in the heart of downtown Poulsbo.

A delicious toasted egg and cheddar bagel with avocado, served with a perfect dark roast cortado and a smile.

Couldn't ask for anything more from this charming little roadside kitchen I've driven by probably a thousand times without stopping.

Quaint and tidy little indoor dining area with a few seats extra at the bar, this place has an eclectic mix of things with which to stuff the face and it all looks and smells amazing!

I got mine to go and was in and out the door in about five minutes, but not before I was greeted by Mr. T's admonishment to be respectful to those who sit to grace his porcelain.

I may be late to the party here, but my husband and I moved closer to Poulsbo this weekend as we bought a farm in Kitsap and wanted a quick breakfast this morning before more moving chores. Caffe Cocina is an absolute gem. I got the Turkey and Swiss sandwich plus fried egg and onions, so good and such great quality. Hubby got a pulled pork burrito. I am a fan. Will be back and love the drive through option. Also that croissant is perfectly flaky.

I'm giving it four stars although it probably deserves five if I only count my actual experience inside the place. I truly LOVE this gem, but I'll explain a couple of the not-so-awesome bits in a second.

When you pull up, you'll find a small parking lot that requires some creativity to back out of. In retrospect, I got there early enough this morning that I had room to back my Suburban into my parking space, but I didn't anticipate how cramped the lot would get and was forced to do a 20-point turn (exaggeration) to leave. Rookie move, it was my first time here so I'll back in next time.

After you park, the obvious next step is to find the entry to walk inside. Now, as someone who had never been, this was a slight challenge. The entry isn't marked so my friends and I were all looking like the new kids on the block looking for it. Hint: walk under the little (gorgeous) arbor thingy that encompasses the outdoor seating area... the door is hidden in there.

Once inside, I was greeted by both of the baristas. They were so friendly! The atmosphere inside is incredibly cozy and only a couple of other people were there at 8am. I put in my order, grabbed a table, and waited for my friends to arrive.

My food (turkey & swiss sandwich w/ avocado and an egg on a croissant) was SO GOOD, but very crumbly and messy. Do not recommend a croissant if you're eating on the go and don't want it all over the front of your outfit. My spiced chai latte was so dang delicious! I wish I would've gotten a bigger size and contemplated ordering a second one before I left. I can't wait to try more of the menu!

By 9am, the pace of the place really started picking up and it got much busier. Still, mostly people in and out. By 10am, all of the tables were packed and the place was so loud that I felt like I was yelling across the table to my friends.

Side note for students or those who want to chill here to get work done: I think this is an EXCELLENT place to come, but bring headphones or earbuds to reduce the noise. Unless you like that kind of thing, of course.

Okay, the gripes.

The parking situation sucks.

They forgot my friend's açaí bowl. After waiting maybe 20 mins (the place was so busy and there was a long line the whole time), my friend went up and asked them if the bowl was almost done. Well, the girl had forgotten to make it. Thankfully we are not super sassy, fussy people and we understand things happen. The barista got right to making the bowl and it was done within a few minutes after that.

The coffee bag cushions on all of the benches and chairs are SO COOL looking, but so uncomfortable to sit on. The rough fibers poked right through my leggings and stabbed me the whole 2.5 hours we were there. Next time I'll wear jeans, haha.

Overall, I'll definitely be back. It's such a cute spot and I can't wait to try more of the food menu! Even with the little annoyances mentioned, I still really loved my visit and highly recommend!

Visited the new location in downtown Poulsbo with my daughter for lunch today. Was greeted by the owner, which was very welcoming. I ordered the Fire Melt and my daughter ordered the Turkey Avocado Melt and drinks. The Fire Melt was the best sandwich I've had anywhere for quite some time. Generous helpings of all ingredients, tasty sourdough, and well-balanced tastes. The service was timely very friendly, despite many customers, which can slow things down in many other places.

We will be returning sooner rather than later, for sure!
