Pee can smell like coffee when you're dehydrated as the pee when dehydrated becomes more concentration and even darker.

Then the pee can take on a coffee like smell even though you don't drink coffee.

Another cause of pee or urine smelling like coffee is you drink coffee or even soda or other caffeinated beverages.

When you drink coffee or caffeinated beverages the urine or pee in some people can sometimes smell like coffee which is normal.

When I drink too much coffee my pee smells like coffee.

I thought something was wrong so I told my doctor about it and she said it was normal if I was drinking coffee.

Not everyone will have coffee smelling urine but some people do when they drink coffee, tea etc.
