Coco and the Director
100 W Trade St, Charlotte, NC
Crema's Take
“Tucked inside Charlotte's Uptown Marriott, Coco and the Director is a stylish refuge where the coffee rivals the compelling ambiance—baristas genuinely listen to what you're craving (white chocolate mocha iced? they've got you) and craft both traditional and creative drinks with real care. With sprawling seating areas perfect for settling in with your laptop or a friend, this spot feels less like a grab-and-go café and more like a curated experience, complete with quality pastries and light bites that make lingering feel natural.”
What to expect
Cold brew standout, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu.

Cute coffee shop located in Uptown Charlotte at the Marriott Hotel. The aesthetics were cool my Matcha latte was good. The prices are reasonable. Great place to work. The parking is hard so I am not making a special trip down there just to go there. But the place is nice.
Fun coffee shop downtown! I loved the atmosphere if this place and there’s TONS of seating areas and options- I highly recommend going here if you have some work to do or reading- very cool and very conducive to work in my opinion. There’s tables and different sections you can…
