The Story Behind Café Côtier

The best cups of coffee I’ve ever had weren’t just about the coffee; they were about the moment. Wandering unfamiliar streets with my wife and two sons, nowhere urgent to be, the ocean nearby, and time to savor each espresso. Those were the moments that stayed with me.

I'm Jake, the founder of Café Côtier. After years of chasing the perfect coffee across small coastal towns, major cities, and in hidden cafés, I realized that what made those experiences unforgettable wasn’t just the coffee itself. It was the sense of time slowing down, of being welcomed, and having a shared experience.

Café Côtier — "Coastal Coffee" — was created to bring that feeling to life at your event. It’s not the French Riviera or Capri — but with the right cup of coffee, surrounded by the right people, you can still find yourself in that same place of ease, warmth, and quiet luxury.

We believe a truly memorable event isn’t just about what’s served — it’s about how it makes you feel. Our goal is to help you create moments so inviting, your guests will want to linger just a little longer.
