TLDR: Yes yes yes
I popped in here for a couple hours to work on a paper, and it was an amazing place to work. There's not a lot of seating inside but I got lucky and snagged a spot at the center table facing the bar. I love that view. Watching happy people come in and order drinks from other happy people who are happy to make them. Also, the music they were playing truly slapped. Early 2000's era jams really jazzed me up. The Barista's were friendly and even offered me a free pain au chocolate at closing time when they were packing up (Shhhh don't tell the managers).
The cortado was good. Nothing to write home about itself, but nothing to complain about. I'd go back.
I love this place! Such good coffee and good vibes from the staff. I hate when coffee shops overheat latte milk. Here it is always the perfect temperature and silky smooth.
Small coffee shop, I stopped in on the way to work and was greeted by an enthusiastic barista which was a very nice way to start the day. I got a chai, it was a house blend, it was pretty good. Wouldn't mind coming back here again in the future.
UNDERRATED. These guys know coffee. Best espresso + playlist in DC. Keep it up!
I'm a regular here. You won't find a better cappuccino in the city, and the people who work here are absolutely lovely. Carlos, the Kates, Kevin, Michael, and others whose names I haven't gotten yet, this place is the best and I'm so glad they survived the pandemic and are back to thriving.
Really bright, friendly coffee shop with fun specialty drinks. We were hoping for the cardamom latte (on a recommendation from a friend) but they weren’t serving it anymore. Bummer! However, the turmeric latte was delicious. The staff is super welcoming and fun, making us feel comfortable from the very start. Good tunes and a farmhouse chic decor. Worth a visit if you need a caffeine fix!

As the 4-star description says, "Yay! I'm a fan." This is a cute little coffee bar tucked away between the Shaw and U St/14th St area. It was opened in 2012 and since then, it seems to have done incredibly well for itself.
As with any coffee shop, it gets crowded very quickly. There is a single couch and let me tell you, that is premium real estate. They recently opened up a lot of outdoor seating (thank goodness!), and I could definitely see myself sipping on a dirty chai in the sunshine after a nice yoga session nearby. If it's a weekday morning, I'd recommend that you get there AFTER the morning rush. 9:00am seems to be the sweet spot. Sundays are rough.
As far as food and decor, this place is right on. It's got a handwritten menu in chalk on the wall -- but you can actually read this one! It's very clearly written, which I appreciate. The crowd is varied. I've seen multiple people come into this place and the baristas know their order -- such a nice touch. They have all the coffee selections you could possibly want, and great food too. The food includes a variety of flavored croissants (almond and chocolate), danishes, and bagels.
Check out this place if you want to feel like a local.
The lady at the counter made me the best coffee as i requested..hot and strong! Loved it
Great coffee (single origin choices are spot on) and the staff are welcoming and attentive. Highly recommend.
