What locals say
Haven’t seen proper cà phê cốt dừa in Brighton yet but for something in that direction try My Coffee Story in BN2/Kemptown. They also have a nice discount with the NeoTaste app.
…cheesecake from my coffee story is top tier incredible, although it only comes in single slices not sure if they sell a whole cake!
