Far from your usual coffee addicts’ watering hole, the Coconut Grove, just opened last Friday on Sutter, sports leopard print carpets, framed mirrors, and faux impressionists on the walls of a lofty lounge with disparate glass tables and semi-antique chairs and ottomans. Behind the store window, adorned with light bulbs and golden-painted palms, you’ll find a cozy sofa, upholstered in monkey-and-tiger patterned fabric, quality coffee and pastries, fresh papers to read, and a full lunch if you so desire. If you are lucky, Chantelle—this fantasy place’s charming owner—will offer a tour of her facility, which has in its depth a sunny Italian-style patio with a wall fountain, a women’s clothing shop leaning toward Vegas show-girl style, and a back room, that will turn into a piano bar any day now. And you said you’ve seen everything in San Francisco by now! Visit Coconut Grove at 540 Sutter, SF. Call 415-399-1839 or www.deedee-chantelle.com
