Cortado cafe was born from a vision to serve the best coffee in the most inviting place. Cortado in Spanish means “ to cut” or “ cut in half”; it comes from Spain where the origins of “kahwa” or coffee, had traveled all the way from the Arabian peninsula. Our desire is that at Cortado cafe, you will come to find equal parts, great coffee and a great community. We want to offer a unique coffee house environment unlike any other in Alexandria. We look forward to seeing you at Cortado Cafe - a place where you can savor the coffee and appreciate the community.
