Cafe Calypso

Friendly local faces, great food and drinks and the best part in today's world. You can actually get fresh, locally made food and beverage (coffee) for around 10 bucks (don't forget to tip your baristas) and leave a review. And never be afraid to join the local talk on the front porch. It's a diverse crowd with compelling conversation.

I love the cafe. The coffee is good and the muffin was delicious. However I was disappointed that they didn’t have outlets for my laptop and were cash only. It made me wish I had gone another block to Starbucks. Unfortunately they didn’t meet my needs so I probably won’t be back. So sad.

The iced Cafe Mocha is my ultimate favorite!! The espresso is like no other. Perfectly balanced with the chocolate. I love that it actually tastes like coffee!!! It’s not too sweet like the other mainstream coffee places, where all you taste is sugar!! I would recommend this place to real coffee drinkers. 100/10!

They have a very nice assortment of coffee beans they roast themselves, why didn't I know that? I picked up a pound of Celebes Collossi, I've enjoyed them before from other roasters and these were no exception. The young lady that waited on me gave me a hot cup of coffee, very nice. Doesn't hurt to be attached to a Half Price Books. We visit this half price whenever we're in Corpus.....and i'll pick up some beans and a coffee drink. Good prices too.

I’ve been coming here for years. It’s one of those places that, you must go by when in CC. Local to the core and a favorite by locals as well. The only downside: It’s cash only. There’s an ATM inside though. Plus, the friendliness of the staff, the great service and the homemade pastries, more than make up for it. It’s definitely an authentic coffee shop. They roast coffee as well, so you can buy some for home/office. You could grab a book from next door at Half Price and come on by to Cafe Calypso and enjoy some coffee w/a good read.
