The establishment is a coffee shop and café all mixed in
one. They have a large selection of muffins, cookies, scones and other goodies
that are simply delightful to try. Other items on the menu include exotic names
like Vesuvio (egg sandwich) and Pinatubo(toasted telara). Perhaps you are
interested in something healthier like hummus and pita or a mixed berry
smoothie. Their food selection is large
enough for most interests.
Prices on their caffeinated drinks are affordable and under
the costs of many competitors. A standard large coffee is $2.25 while a large
mocha is also reasonably priced at $2.25. Add that to a $7.25 sandwich and you
still fall under the $10 rule. You can

The atmosphere is relaxing in terms of seating options,
aroma, and Internet access. It is possible to find couch seating, in-door
seating and outdoor patio seating. Like many coffee shops, there is use for
more plugs. Therefore, make sure you have a battery or are willing to wait for
a place where you can plug in your computer. Background music is light but lively so it
provides additional mood enhancement for guests.
Krakatoa appears to be trying to provide this artistic feel
and design as a matter of strategy. You will notice the colors on the wall are bright and
Southwestern in orientation. The building itself is a converted house which
adds to the overall décor. Music and products have an exotic appeal that
enhances its servicescape. One gets the impression they are in a tropical and
exciting place. When positive feelings are associated with a business, it is
likely to increase the overall customer satisfaction level.
