Coco Works - Aberdeenshire

Great little coffee shop. The best for a “wee fly” in the area. Great service, warm welcome, and wonderful background music that embellished the whole experience. The place for a nice little break from the hustle and bustle. There, have I padded that enough? Just visit, you’ll understand….

The food (well the muffin I had and coffee was good, albeit £6.50 but my low score here is for service. Not sure if the lady was having a bad day but she was pretty rude to me when I went in. I turned up at 9.35 and was advised they were not open yet (even the door said 'open ' and she said she could only offer takeaway coffee. Yes thanks, but can I use home bathroom whilst you make it? Yes ok , she said. Without graphic detail, I was in the loo a bit longer than normal and eventually someone came to get in, which given what followed was presumably her checking I was still here and not left. After feeling rushed to get out, she then looked rather irked at me about how long I 'd been in there (not entirely sure what harm it was doing her and she didn 't rush in to the loo after so she wasn 't obviously desperate herself nor was there anyone else in the shop . She then made a dig about how long I 'd been in there which seemed quite unnecessary and just generally I was given the impression I 'd done something really wrong and was annoying her. I then asked for a muffin which she gave me with a face like death and then I asked for sugar for my coffee, which it hadn 't occurred to her to offer as part of my expensive and rather small coffee. And that 's another thing, when you ask for a large cappuccino, one would assume it would be so or you would be informed they only do one size but she didn 't feel the need to advise me as such. It 's a nice coffee but can 't tell if there is a double shot in there but some clarification would have been nice although given how upset she was that I used her toilet for so long, God only knows how upset me challenging the drink size would have made her. Living in Aberdeen, frankly I 'm well used to poor service and being made to feel like merely wanting to buy something is a massive inconvenience for staff, so this was nothing new. I just didn 't like ger attitude and it undermined what seems like a lovely looking wee coffee shop and my initial positive vibe on going in.

Visited Cocoworks, Inverurie Station on Tuesday 23rd May on my annual 3 day Grampian Highland railtour from Edinburgh via Aberdeen, Inverurie, Keith, Inverness Stirling. Cocoworks was the best food and drink experience found at any of the railway stations. Fabulous food, friendly service whilst sitting in the sun on the station platform at Inverurie....great!

What a delightful little spot! Was here with my girlfriend yesterday the food was very good the panini and salad very tasty finished up with coffee and cakes run by two nice ladies.

Lovely coffee house, nice hot coffee and delicious scones. The strawberry white chocolate scone is by far the best I’ve tasted. All homemade too
