Excellent coffee from staff who know what they're doing. Nice place to chill, although it can be busy on the weekends.

Definitely the best latte in Washington DC. Practices the "crop to cup" philosophy and benefits small African coffee farmers. Delicious iced coffee as well. Super friendly staff and cool indoor space!

Coffee pros of the highest order. Doesn't matter if you like your coffee mild our strong, black or creamed , straight up or cappuccino, these talented artists have you covered. Clean, clean, clean!

They recently redid the interior and I think there are even more couches and comfy chairs! A great place to get work done. Good food and awesome music too.

I like it here! It's a bit expensive, but the ambiance is nice and the people are friendly. Plus it's close to my internship! Free wifi and comfy chairs are a bonus.

Great coffee, great atmosphere, super nice staff! They also just started offering delicious gourmet grilled cheese sandwiches using fresh bread and gourmet cheeses. Check it out!

Usually hard to get a seat so get here early if you really want one. Best coffee in DC, in my opinion.

Pour-overs are very good, try Virunga beans. They have at least three different beans from different regions of Rwanda.

Great coffee shop where they source their coffee from Rawandan bourbon beans.

Really the best cappuccino in town! Go for the 16 ounce traditional cappuccino. 3 ounces of espresso and creamy foamed milk. Devine!

Great(!) coffee and non-coffee menu (e.g. Macadamia Nut Mocha Latte!). Great African art work! Coffee is sourced locally and from Rwanda! Smart / good-looking crowd. Free wi-fi. Food beats Strbks

Get a Mexican hot chocolate, 1-2 shots of espresso, on ice...you’re welcome

The ambience is really nice, white mocha is outta the world :) there was even a cool leaf drawn over the coffee since we had it there..beats starbucks anytime!

Solid wifi. You know it's good when the router is just a plain commodity Asustek, and some crappy branded ad-filled thing.

Pick up some of the Musasa coffee. It's only a special offering but hopefully they'll add it to the permanent selection of coffees. I've tried them all and I think Musasa is my favorite.

This is a great spot to nurse a coffee and get some work done on a Friday afternoon.
Jürgen DietlOctober 10, 2014
Nice Place but unfortunately they put a Traditional Cappuccino into a paper cup instead of porcelain cup what they also have.

One of the best coffee shops in DC. Great place to work or relax.

Great place to try full leaf tea pressed through an espresso machine!
Mary GlazenerOctober 11, 2015
One of the first places I tried moving here. Absolutely, splendid.

They make hummus to order, with your choice of beans, spices, and level of garlic. Mmmm.

Awesome espresso and a surprisingly good amount of outlet-accessible seating.

Tons of seating, get the lavender cold brew

Primarily serving various Rwandan coffees, this is some of the best coffee in DC!

Try the hot horchata (rice milk/cinnamon syrup). It's delicious. Mexcican Hot Chocolate is great too.

Lemon Charger: tea steeped in hot lemonade instead of hot water. It sounds weird, but it is SO GOOD.
Caroline LeeJanuary 31, 2013
Pastries and sandwiches are good, but the coffee is just OK. A shame since they have such a good espresso machine.

Cinnamon latte + cherry white chocolate cookie is the way to go. Can't recommend it enough.

Free 12oz coffee with your 1st check-in

Wifi is iffy. Mexican hot chocolate good
Antonio ZugaldiaMarch 27, 2010
Great place for a coffee and to spend some time checking your gmail, the area is normally dead though.

They make the best soy lattes. And something different try the hot horchata! Delicious!
