Koco Java

I could write an essay on how good this coffee shop is, but let me just keep it simple. This is hands-​down the best coffee and the best atmosphere you are going to find in or near Salisbury. I would also strongly recommend the very short extra drive if you are looking for a place to relax for a second and grab a drink while traveling down I-​85. They are cheaper than Starbucks/​DD and the quality is much higher.

Great to have a successful independently owned coffee place in Salisbury. I really don’t like to support Starbucks due to their politics.
All of my visits have been satisfactory with coffee and drinks prepared exactly the way I expected.
And best of all, served at a reasonable price. Highly recommend.

One of my favorite places to visit when I’m in the area. Staff is very nice and coffee is delicious. Prices are more that reasonable.

Best coffee house/​lounge in Salisbury! The people that work there are so friendly and nice. The sitting areas are comfortable and offer privacy areas. Truly my all time favorite coffee house in Salisbury.

I’ve been here twice and have been pleased with their product. I’d like to see them using outdoor propane heaters and maybe a fire pit for outdoor ambience. The neighborhood, however, may not be conducive to that. It’s proximal to the arts district, if you will, and serves those from the courthouse across the street best, I’m presuming. Spacious and accommodating.

I love coming here! I come on a weekly basis. Coffee is great and the bakery items are delicious! Staff is super friendly and service is quick!

I visited today and enjoyed the peace and quiet and great Coffee. The customer service was good as well. I will revisit!!!

spacious, comfortable and as good as any Starbucks with better prices .can’t go wrong!

A great coffee house. On top of that its locally owned. They have free wifi and outdoor seating. They also seem to care about customer service and have prices lower than Starbucks. Definitely worth a visit.

Everything you would want in a local coffeehouse. Plenty of seating, free wifi, a drive thru winfows, high quality coffee and a delightful assortment of baked goods. Definitely worth coming back to again and again!

Delicious coffee every time! Don’t miss this experience in a convenient downtown location!

Really excellent coffee… I’ve had their Americanos and other espresso drinks and the quality is consistently high.
The only complaint I have is that the coffee is served too hot. I understand that some people like it hot, even I like it fairly hot, but the temperature it comes out makes it not drinkable or enjoyable for about 10 – 15 minutes.
Considering the above, one may want to ask for it to not come out as hot. I’ll try that request next time…
With the loss of Port City Java over near Innes and Mahaley a few years ago, this is now my local coffee spot to enjoy when I’m in the Salisbury area (which isn’t often, considering I live in Dallas-​Fort Worth).

Koco is a fabulous coffee shop with a large variety. They are easily accesible with a location right in Downtown Salisbury. They even have a drive thru window!!! If they have it at Starbucks, I guarantee there is an even more delicious version at Koco Java! And you can probably skip the long line :)

I was a regular at Koco Java from the day it opened until we moved out of town. Whenever I visit Salisbury now I always stop in there and often meet friends there. I think they have the best coffee I’ve ever tasted. And they have great service, too.

First time visit to Koco today, what a treat. I live in Charlotte but decided to detour to Koco Java for a pick me up on my way back from Greensboro. I will definitely be stopping by more frequently when I head up and down I85. I met Arturo and Berta, very nice folks. I learned more from Arturo about coffee in 10 minutes than anyone has ever explained to me in the past. I learned what macchiato means (stained) and how the term originated. Arturo made me a fantastic macchiato, very robust. I also picked up a pound of their Papua New Guinea beans, I can’t wait to brew them in my press. I like that they roast there on site, you can’t get any fresher than that. Great place, very relaxing. For the Salisbury folks, please stop here rather than the Starbucks by the interstate if you are looking for a great cup of coffee. You would also be supporting local business which is always important.

I love to come and do homework! The prices are amazing and the owners are so sweet! Love it!

There 2 times helped me find the perfect cup of coffee and when I drive up. They know what I am drinking. LOVE THIS PLACE !!

I bought a small plain latte, which is my drink of choice. It was very strong, which I like, but lacked the nice milky froth that I enjoy. I gave them a 4 star rating because it’s a cute, locally owned coffee shop which I believe we should all support (no Starbucks unless it’s an emergency or lack of options) and it was a nice latte to sip on. I didn’t indulge in the window that had filled with goodies but the cream cheese Danish looked sinful! May pick one up the next time I’m in Salisbury! Until next time…

The only coffee shop in downtown Salisbury, and the best coffee shop in Salisbury. I am pleasantly surprise to find such a nice coffee shop. Coffee is great. The seating is awesome. Perfect place to sit and relax. I was here when it was raining heavily in Salisbury. I enjoyed watching the rain while having the coffee inside ;-) I think I found the great place to go for a coffee and unwind over the weekend.

Delicious!!! I love non-​corporate coffee houses and this is one of the best bar none. Berta and Art are wonderful baristas!!! They make you feel welcome and put pride into everything they serve. If you live in the near by cities or even counties, it is worth the drive to enjoy all that they serve. I come up regularly from China Grove.
