I've been attending Emissary x Pergamino (on 20th St) for nearly 6 years, including moves in and out of town, visits back, and finally resettling nearby. Across that time, and a range of baristas, the espresso, food, and atmosphere have remained consistently great. It is a cozy space to work or meet, and the staff is always friendly and effective. It's a great asset to the neighborhood.
Honestly one of the best coffee's I had in DC. I get quite picky about coffee, and have been disappointed by many cafes in DC, but Emissary delivers.
Highly recommend coming here for the coffee alone.

Very small and cozy location; approx 7 small 2 person tables available. Minimal drink selection, but the coffee I had was delicious...normally require cream and sugar, but only needed a splash of milk. Flavorful on its own!
The Arepa con Queso is a MUST!! I added fresh avocado as well. Comes with a side salad with a homemade vinaigrette. This dish is a 10!
