Harrar Coffee & Roastery

You smell the coffee as you approach the café, and its aroma envelops you as you enter. Coffee lovers have unforgettable memories of this place; it's as if the café was brought from Ethiopia to Virginia. I will return here many times Insha Allah .

Great Ethiopian coffee, both roasted/bagged (and they also have unroasted) and prepared; very friendly staff: a great neighborhood place. It's always lovely to smell the coffee roasting when I walk by.

Small local place specializing in Ethiopian coffee beans. Lots of varieties you don't find everywhere. I've never eaten there, so no opinion about that. Staff is always been cheerful and helpful when I visited.

I came to this cafe before going to the courthouse to get marriage documents, and the ladies were so kind and celebratory. Not to mention, my ginger tea and white mocha were delicious. This coffee shop is one I’ll definitely be returning to!

Some of the best coffee in DC - great for fresh roasted beans or a cup of coffee.

They have great cold brew and my cheese danish was surprisingly incredible. Overall it's an affordable, low-key neighborhood roastery - what's not to love?

The coffee is beautifully brewed. I got a latte the first time I went there and think their espresso is delicious. Their espresso isnt too bitter or sour like at a lot of other cafes. The second time I went I had a drip coffee and it was equally pleasant. The person working there is always friendly. My partner and I love going there.

Phenomenal cold brew: strong, rich, almost chocolatey! Will be back for pastries!!

Clean shop with seating, cute lady was happy to make my drink how I wanted it.

Delicious little coffee house with in-house roasted beans. The cappuccino I got had quite an exquisite flavoring. I haven’t had one like this that remember and I quite like it. There was no line when I was in there and a few people sitting around enjoying the music and mood. I’ll come back if I’m in the area again!

Fantastic coffee at a great price. Friendly and not too crowded. Worth the stop!

Fantastic neighbor coffee shop with relaxing vibes and great food!!
