About the Space
On Central Street in Wellesley
Situated on historic and commercial Central Street in Wellesley, Cocobeet is an organic, plant-based eatery and specialty juice bar. In addition to cold-pressed juices, Cocobeet offers smoothies, soups, vegan salads, and gluten-free sandwiches. The Wellesley location is the Boston-based company’s second outpost. Occupying a former toy store, Studio Luz transformed the space for Cocobeet to feature a bright new storefront and versatile interior seating space. The layout comfortably accommodates both dine-in and grab-and-go customers. A display counter features simple material finishes, while a white-washed exposed brick wall creates a rustic-chic feel. The neutral color palette throughout the space compliments the colorful produce ingredients and juice containers.
