Reviews

Where do I start… it’s always my go to coffee shop whenever I’m in Scarborough. Their coffee is amazing and I love how they have guest roasters so there’s always something knew to try. There is always a gluten free option for me to eat, which is always delicious. I love how they change the menu seasonally as well. The service has always been excellent and the atmosphere is very chill as well. As an art student I love just sitting there surrounded by the plants and art work because it always give me inspiration when I’m stuck in an artist block.

Best coffee shop in Scarborough, no competition. It’s on par with specialty cafes in London and York - they highlight small roasters and make a hell of a good cup of coffee (my go to is either a pour over or flat white, but their seasonal drinks are fun and tasty too!). So happy to have found this spot as they fuel my need for GOOD coffee! Also, their staff is knowledgeable and friendly, and the atmosphere has good vibes - I highly recommend this place if you are looking for great specialty coffee

Fantastic coffee and food! The staff are very talented and friendly, making Koda an inviting place to sit and have a tasty brew. Both the drinks and food menu is creative and rotates seasonally, so there is always something new and exciting to try, as well as the classic favs. There’s truly something for everyone!

Genuinely one of the best coffee shops around. You can tell the joy the owner has in what he does as soon as you walk through the door. His ability to showcase coffee from roasters all over the country and beyond is a real testament to his passion for the industry. If nobody told you Koda was serving vegan based food you'd struggle to tell the difference. 0 virtue signalling, just great quality coffee, food and service.

Popped in quickly for cake and coffee to takeaway. The chai latte was delicious, as was the almond croissant. Look forward to visiting again to try some of the food menu. Service could’ve been a bit friendlier. Dog friendly cafe.

I went this morning and read my book. I LOVED it. Amazing coffee, and I had an incredible almond croissant. It was so good. I can't wait to go back. The only thing I would say is that I think the music was just a tiny bit loud but maybe that's just me. Really cool atmosphere, nice art, cool plants. Love it, thanks koda

The best coffee I ever had in Scarborough and one of the best I have ever had in this country ! Delighted to discover this café on our way to the train station. The vegan treats were a delight too. I highly recommend it for all the people who are particular about their coffee.

Staff are lovely, coffee amazing and food is delicious. As a non vegan with a vegan daughter, I think it’s fab little haven, with loads of delicious things to choose from. It’s one of the nicest coffee’s in town. I love the speciality drinks that are often on offer.
