    Im Cafe möchte <- ist besser, mag ist umgangssprachlich. Jedoch gehe ich selten zum Cafe, weil es zu teuer ist. (Satzstellung) Super!

    First, I'll say it how a German would say it: "In einem Café würde ich ein Sandwich und einen Kakao bestellen. Kakao ist mein Lieblingsgetränk. Jedoch gehe ich selten in ein Café, weil es zu teuer ist." Now my comment: As in English, you use an indefinite article when dealing with objects you don't know already or you are speaking about in general. You are generally speaking about what you WOULD order at A café. As you see, in German there's an equivalent word for "would". "I would..." = "Ich würde..." e.g. "I would do that." = "Ich würde das tun." I split up the first sentence due to style. Otherwise "Kakao" has no reference to the act of ordering.
