Papaya Cafe

Went here on a quiet Saturday morning before the car ferry (right across the street) — great coffee! Our group got iced lattes and iced coffees, all excellent. Great variety of books as well in a cozy atmosphere.

Five stars on a first visit seems high, but I’m trying to go to lots of places while I travel, so I won’t have multiple visits, and I may as well give five stars when I seems deserved. This cafe has a little sign to the left of the doorway, but looks for the Books & DVDs sign to the left just as you walk into the shopping center. The menu looked pretty good, lattes and shakes and brewed coffee. I’ve been trying iced lattes, but it’s been so hot or miss I wasn’t in the mood to risk it, and I went with a cold brew instead. It was strong and nicely flavored and surprisingly well priced. Really no issues with the place. Next time I might try the iced latte after all, and hope for the best! There’s not a ton of parking in the little shopping center, but I expect there’s pretty quick turnover.

Very poor customer service. We came on 10/18/21 and the woman working did not greet us at all while we were shopping around which felt very awkward. When we attempted to order coffee she was very rude and gave continuous attitude and short answers. Everything that we attempted to order they were "out of", so we left without purchasing anything- especially because we felt so unwelcome.

Love their Cold Brew and Vietnamese Coffee. We look forward to it every time we come to the islands!! Some of the best coffee we have had on or off island!! Awesome staff who are great at recommending my beach reads!

Great coffee! Love this little place. IT's very deceiving on the outside as a book store, but then in the back at the register is this little area for coffee. Rivals anything you can buy on the mainland.

Best bookstore in Cruz Bay. And great that you can grab coffee there as well. Easy parking and next to a few other shops, which makes it convenient.

We found this little store near the Starfish Market and got cups of coffee to go with the breakfast items we bought at the Market.

The coffee was good and reasonably price. The store looked like it had a lot of different types of snacks as well as movies and books.

We'll be back.

Great service and LOVED their Vietnamese iced coffee. Nice book selection as well.

The lady was rude. Period.

Fantastic iced Vietnamese coffee!
