    The vibes of this place are great- usually I’m a big fan of Colada Shop. But recently I ordered a chicken meal and it was really sad. It’s not worth the price. I’d suggest ordering the drinks and smaller food items

    We decided to spend the afternoon with all my friends to try the famous Pouches that Colada Shop offers, mojitos were definitely our favorites of happy hour! Thank you very much to Sebastian and Luna who served us wonderfully! 10/10!

    I loved coming to this place, just to breathe a little and enjoy a delicious drink. A quick but necessary stop, without forgetting to mention that the conversation with Luna was completely rewarding! Thank you so much! I'll definitely be back!

    If I lived down here I’d be here *all the time* on weekends for the egg and yucca hash. Cuban sandwich good. Tomato soup above average. Cuban Caesar wrap a tasty veg option (if you don’t care about protein). The cortados are on point. Order ahead on the coffee if you’re in a hurry, and pick up a pineapple chia breakfast pudding while you’re at it. Do yourself a favor and try the “good for you mojito”. It’s the most delightful mint and spinach smoothie you’ll ever drink, and you will feel better afterward. I promise.

    Anytime I'm near The Wharf I always make sure I stop by Colada to grab some chicken empanadas. They are my absolute favorite. So good, flaky, buttery, chicken is seasoned just right and not dry at all for a piece of food that's deep fried and make sure you get the salsa verde even though it's just as good without the sauce. The only thing I dislike is it was 3 and now it's 2 empanadas, but it's still worth it.
