“The managers seems to be on top of his business and I appreciate that as a customers. The staff for the most part has been polite. I will do my best to be mindful as well.2/2/24Older lady gets upset I am cleaning my glasses and when notice her noticing me(watching me). I got the sense a gentleman who works here a tall guy olive skin who usually goes out of his way to greet me. Ask me “good morning” I say that because the context in which he says it. Was clearly to confront me for what he thought he heard. This gentleman in the past has gone out of his way to greet me and idc if he has done before with other people but he seems almost obsessed to engage me and that makes me uncomfortable. In addition to it was clear he was confronting me and I said said “good morning”. And turned my back on him because he’s not someone of importance. I just don’t appreciate being confronted due to a lack of communication. From experience I know that he would still confront me even if he understood this lady was being dramatic and because he could relate to her one way or another he would still try to portray me as the villain.PS,I hate to complain but I have to when I see I am being confronted or it’s important. If it’s valid it’s valid. Regardless“
“This is my favorite kind of local restaurant: extremely delicious and unique menu combined with a warm and friendly atmosphere. The pan de waffle with berries & arequipe (a caramel sauce) is easily the best waffles I've ever eaten, ever. Also love the beef empanadas. The crust is perfectly flaky.I like the espresso drinks, too. The coffee is bright and sweet.“
“Fabulous bakery/coffee shop . What a hidden gem! Coffee is Zeke’s which I love. Their Tuna sandwich and Avocado Toast are amazing. Subtle spices are delicious. Their pastries never disappoint. Seriously the best local place for coffee and a croissant and I have tried a lot!Kid-friendliness: Very friendly staff with a smile for everyone. Have seen little tots in their with their parents sitting have a hot chocolate.“
“This place was great. The service was good, the food came out fast and was really good. The only thing was that the noodles got soggy really fast. The banh mi was good. It was big and filled pretty well too. Overall a very good pho place and will probably come again sometime.“
“This coffee shop is worth the hype! A quick walk from the Takoma Redline station makes this place easy to get to. The cafe does get very crowded but do not let that discourage you. I tried the Chai Tea Latte which was one of the best I have had since moving back to the region. I also tried the egg, cheddar, and sausage on a Crogel. I normally do not really eat sausage because of the taste. The sausage was fresh and tasted really good. I was very surprised by the delicious taste of the sausage and by how well all the flavors went together. I can't remember what latte my partner ordered but it was also really good. I definitely recommend this cafe!“
“Great food, super cute and chic ambiance, and easy, prompt service. The menu has all the classics of an upscale Italian restaurant and the flavors + portions don't disappoint! I had the Burrata, the mushroom pasta, and the broccolini - all were well prepared and delicious. The price point is certainly on the higher side but nonetheless it's a cute and cosy spot that I hope to be back to soon. Glad to have this option in the neighborhood!“
“They cashier is nice the ambiance is great with incense that levitates the room. The barista actually knows how to steam the milk and pull wonderful shots. Support small businesses like this. There is wifi and music playing in the background. Try the Fatira with everything (vegetarian friendly)“

“Rue Cafe in West Hollywood is a charming little spot that has quickly become a favorite of mine. The cozy atmosphere and friendly staff make it the perfect place to unwind with a cup of coffee or enjoy a delicious meal. Their menu offers a variety of options, from tasty sandwiches to mouthwatering pastries, all made with fresh and high-quality ingredients. Whether I'm grabbing a quick bite or settling in for a leisurely brunch, Rue Cafe never disappoints. Highly recommend giving it a try if you're in the area!Parking: It depends at what time you visit this place.“
“I'm from out of town and found Little Food Studio through a recommendation from a friend. I ordered a Bianca (ham and cheese) with the spicy spread and a cherry blossom lemonade, both of which were VERY delicious. While waiting for the food to be made there were many other customers who came in. I completely understand why this place is rated to highly. Cheap prices, great food, and friendly staff.“
“Such a hidden gem! I had their pecan latte, which has actual pecan pieces in the drink. So creative! Limited pastry options, they do have vegan options. The vibe is cozy and cute, would love to come back to try their dinners/food and alcoholic drinks.Street parking available.“
“A Great place for coffee, beverage with some nice food options. They have a good breakfast menu including a few pastries to choose from. The happy hour menu is very reasonable. I loved to avocado & black bean toast either mesclun salad, cojito cheese and two poached eggs. The service is always good.“
“Mixture Food Hall offers a variety of vegan foods, desserts, drinks, organic supplements, oils & herbs, play areas, arcade machines & including sport TV monitors, seating areas,180° bar area, upperstairs lounge space, 5 individual restrooms, parking space. The only downside was that baby strollers couldn't be rolled into from sidewalk & had to lift up the stairs. The art moral could be used for a photo background.Vegetarian options: They offered Musa's fried oyster mushroom sandwiches & a variety of sides; tacos qucidillas; bar beers & drinks; burgers; wings & salads. My son didn't like Musa food due to too salty fried oyster mushrooms & salty fries were overcooked. The wait staff was professional; followed food safety guidelines & customer service oriented.Parking: Small to mid-size cars & suvs use space but tight parking spaces.Kid-friendliness: They offered a play area including a table & 4 metal kid chairs with educational toys & games; a loga board game, arcade machine & shooting arcade game.“

“I was recommended this location by a friend who tried CYM and I loved it! The little deli (food truck) was near my house and was a pretty quick trip. The ordering process was seamless. I ordered online and picked up my order right the window. I got a Sun City Bagel which featured cheddar, eggs, and bacon! The food was HOTTTT and fresh... literally to die for! It stayed warm even an hour later when I finished my nail appointment that I was heading too! Also the branding and location is just aesthetic! Even though this is a food truck location, they did have a few parking spots which was easy enough to just park and get out grab my food and go! Good food + aesthetic location = happy Cindy“
“Büna has quickly become one of my favorite cafes of all time. The people who work there are so kind and remember your name and order and work to make your experience enjoyable and catered to you specifically. The food (both Ethiopian and American) is absolutely fantastic. Everything I’ve had has been a slam dunk. I am not someone who orders takeout almost ever and I’ve made an exception for this cafe. I keep coming back for the Ethiopian vegan rolls, fir fir side dish and brunch platter! Wish I could take this place everywhere I go!“
“I enjoyed the smoothies, the acai bowl was SO good! The flavor is great, the taste is amazing, and the service was ok for the amount of customers at the time, I wish the prices were slightly cheaper, but other than that it is a 5/5, peak!Vegetarian options: Very much alot of vegan options and bowls.“
“Decided to try a new cafe, this one stood out to me once I saw the horchata latte. Upon arriving to Centrado Cafe, I noticed it was a very calm atmosphere and everywhere in the cafe had adequate space to have their conversations, chill, and get their work done. I ordered 2 iced horchata lattes and an order of churros with ice cream. The lattes came out pretty quickly but I waited close to 30 minutes for the churros. When I finally got up to ask a out them, someone was on the way to my table with them- but they forgot the ice cream. When I told the cashier the sever forgot the ice cream she quickly got me a cup of ice cream and some spoons. Overall everything was tasty, the churros were fried perfectly and there was a filling inside of them. I look forward to coming back and trying actual food but I’ll arrive earlier next time so I dont get too hungry while waiting.Parking: Small parking lot, there is some space on the side to park but there is no street parking.“
“I ordered two cake slices and a Swiss roll to bring to a dinner and they were all delicious! The cake and frosting are not too sweet, and the fruit flavors taste like fresh fruit. The packaging is cute and makes each cake slice look like a gift. The store has lots of Japanese treats as well as the baked goods, and I will be returning to try more things.“
“I catered from the Bean Bag Deli for the first time for a work conference. Mitchell was by far the best person to work with when trying to facilitate numerous orders. He was very flexible and adaptable to our needs/desires. He provided amazing customer service and I will 10000% be a returning customer! I recommend to anyone wanting a quick and yummy bite or for a large group, either way, you'll leave happy. :)“
“What a delight! I wanted to try a new place and I’m so glad I stumbled across Sunday Morning Bakehouse! When I walked in, I was immediately pulled by the beautiful decor, high ceilings, and smell of baked goods and coffee. I was helped as soon as I got on the line and the staff that prepared my food and coffee was very pleasant! I saw some reviews about it being super crowded, which was not the case when I visited. I bought an decaf iced Oat milk Mocha was delicious and several pastries, like the croissant, chocolate chip cookie, and banana loaf was demolished by me and friends in minutes. I can’t wait to visit again!“
“My husband and I love this place & always recommend to our friends who haven’t been yet. From the gelato, to drip coffee, gluten free brownies and breakfast sandwiches and burritos, everything is SUPERB! Yesterday we ordered the breakfast burrito(comes in spinach wrap), waffles & breakfast tacos with bacon added. As usual, everything was fresh, quick & filling! Kevin up front is always great to chat with & super helpful. The other young ladies are also friendly, hardworking & keep the place so neat & tidy. Stop by!!“
“Went here with vegan friends and we all had the vegetarian sampler. The food was absolutely scrumptious. The staff were gracious and lovely and the atmosphere was very pleasant with really nice music playing. I highly recommend this restaurant! We'll definitely be coming back!“
“I love coming here! It’s a cute little spot that has a cozy vibe! I’m a HUGE fan of the arepas — literally they are delicious! Sometimes I have to stop myself from buying several at a time. Their coffee is also really good, with more of the flavors heightened with oat milk. It’s a regular stop for me!“
“Stopped in here randomly when running errands. Such a cute little shop and so homey. Their matcha is so good, as I’m sure everything else…especially the kimbap, it’s the best ever! If you’ve never tried it before, get it here when it is fresh and homemade. I live in NE and will go out of my way to come back all the time!“
“Super cute locally owned boba place!! The lady who took care of use was very sweet and the boba is perfect, in terms of sweetness level. Support local this Lunar New Year! ?Kid-friendliness: Super cute place if your kids also want some boba.“
“Today I delivered a refrigerator to this restaurant, the staff was very pleasant and friendly, when I was finished with my delivery Sateeb offered me lunch. I haven’t had Indian food before so I was a little reluctant to try. I’m glad I did. I had the chicken lollipop, the flavor was unmatched, totally taken by surprise. He then offered chicken biryani, this is a traditional dish, it was amazing. All the sauces were good. 10/10 I would recommend and definitely will be going again“
“This is one of my favorite local - family owned businesses !! Not only are the products absolutely amazing but the family is lovely! Please remember to support local business not only for the holidays but every day. And be sure to visit this great company at local farmer’s markets ! They are often at the markets. The tulsi tea and the orzo are my faves ❤️“
“Another local gem for getting coffee and pastries. Vigilante Coffee (Hyattsville) is spacious but cozy and full of energy by the friendly staff, baristas, managers, and customers. I visited this past Sunday, St. Patrick's Day and the place had a beautiful Celtic atmosphere with live music by Abbie Palmer and Agi Kovacs. They were wonderful and so friendly and personable.I had a delicious oat milk Flat White with a Honey Pistachio Kouign Amann pastry.“
“Coffee Republic is my favorite coffee spot in Rockville! The staff is always friendly and welcoming, and it's a comfortable place to enjoy a great coffee drink and delicious pastry or breakfast sandwich. I no longer live in MoCo, but I still try to come by often, especially to try one of their special seasonal coffee drinks!“
“Wonderful roaster and coffee spot. The staff are full of personality, a little rambunctious and connect with their customers. The coffee is delicious with a full body. I ordered a pour over drip coffee from their selection of different roasts and I was very happy with my selection. The wait wasn't too long and I got to enjoy the dialogue and atmosphere of the little roasting shop. They might only be open on Saturdays, but it's worth the visit if you're in the area and timing works out.“
“Fairly frequent (weekly) coffee (Ethiopian) & samosa (pastry w/lentil filling) cafe; friendly and welcoming owners and clientele. I have not had the other selections but others do and enjoy. Prices, quality & portions are good. Stop in and support local small business.“
“Stopped here for the first time last week and boy was I blown away! It’s easily become a favorite place. I got the Thunderbird with Cheesy Yuca bread (gluten free) and I inhaled it in minutes! All of the flavors and textures worked together and it was absolutely delicious! It was also so filling, in a way that breakfast sandwiches are often not. I also appreciated that it was just your typical BEC either. My oat milk Mocha was also delightful, which was especially satisfying as it was decaf. All in all, I can’t wait to return!“
“I heard about Levain and was in the Bethesda area, so I had to make a stop. As soon as you walk in, you’re hit was amazing smells of baked goods and fresh coffee. The options are simple and straightforward. The staff was all business; get you in and get you out - order and move out of the way.I tried four different cookies. Were they worth the hype? Yes! Absolutely! Maybe some of the best cookies I’ve ever had. At $5 a piece, they’re expensive but worth the cost. I will definitely visit again when in town and look forward to trying other options and flavors. Thanks.“
“Finally got by to check this place out a d was not disappointed. Grandma, Posh and her son were all very nice and d personable. You can tell they take pride in the ingredients they use as soon as you bite in. I had the Cheesecake waffle with strawberries and a scoop of soft serve and it was amazing! Definitely going back!“
“I will remember my pleasant experience at Kefa Cafe forever. I ordered a macchiato and chatted with the owner, Abeba, while she prepared it. She made me feel instantly welcomed, and I learned about the tight-knit Ethiopian community which had sprung up around her cafe over the past 20-something years. I returned the next day and no sooner had I crossed the threshold that Abeba welcomed me by name and recalled my previous order. The coffee and pastries were both of the highest quality, but neither compares to the kindness you will find at Kefa Cafe. The walls are decorated with an enchanting patchwork of photos and documents from the establishment's storied past, connecting customers to a lineage of fellow coffee-drinkers which spans generations and continents. Whether you visit on a bustling morning or a lazy afternoon, you will be pleased by what you find here.“
“This is an Asian bakery and not European Style. That means much less sugar, very unique flavors, lighter and more flavorful. My daughter and I love the Soufflé and we call in advance. I love the artichoke and spinach, egg tart, and pork and onion bun. If you're open minded and want to try something different, then this is an excellent place. If you want fried sugar or baked butter/sugar then maybe try something else.“
“I love this place. The staff are fantastic at calming things down when playtime gets too rowdy or when one dog seems overwhelmed, and they clean up any waste right away. It's really obvious that everyone who works here really loves dogs, and they welcomed my dog Murphy like family! I also appreciate how organized they are about immunization records because it makes me feel safer about all the interaction my dog gets here. Murphy always comes home happy and tuckered out! I'm a happy annual member.“
“Since the closing of the Vie de France location in downtown Rockville about 2 years ago, there was a void of a nice French-style bakery and cafe. Enter Paris Bagette, an international chain of French-style bakeries owned by SPC Group and headquartered in Seoul. Paris Bagette offers high-quality products that include a, wide range of classic French breads, tarts, cakes and deserts, but also creative and innovative sweet and savory baked goods with a strong Asian influence. The store is bright, modern, with an interesting blend of French country and minimalist decor. A window yo the street showcases bakers working, which is a nice touch. Paris Bagette also serves a variety of coffee and tea based drinks, hot and cold.There also many sandwich options, both on a cold case and hot, as well as fresh salads, savory pies and other options, including gluten free pastries.I decided to try the most basic product, a French bagette "bâton" It was at least 30% longer than a typical French bagette; the texture was airy, crunchy and the flavor delicious.The service was friendly, efficient and fast. The store was not super crowded (it was a Sunday).There are a number of products to try at Paris Bagette, and I will return several timesDietary restrictions: There are gluten free options“
“It was the best coffee experience. Barista was well educated and he was able to answer questions about the coffee they have. Cortado has various flavor comes from Sumatra espresso and their brew coffee (it was Ethiopia) was the best brew coffee ever.“
“A cozy little cafe that offers the perfect respite from the cold outside. The owner is incredibly kind and friendly, and the food is delicious! Wish I got to try more of the traditional Ethiopian selections on the menu, but all the more reason to go back ☺️“
“i ordered a lychee black tea, which, at lower sweetness, had the perfect amount of sugar. the boba also tasted fresh, which is rare in the bigger chains in the area. service was also super quick--on the pricier side for boba but definitely recommend!“
“not much of a food selection on the Sunday morning I went around 9am. A few pastries, no hot brkfst sandwiches that I could see. Asked for a large cappuccino and the person behind the counter simply said "no". I just stared at her a few seconds not knowing what to say and she finally clarified they only have cappuccino in small. so I ordered a small and moved on. Can't say I'll necessarily go back even though I'm there every week for a group meet. Probably will get my coffee elsewhere nearby.“
“This place is like a tiny apothecary filled with very beautiful and expensive treats. There were beautiful single source chocolates and packets of pasta that looked like art. The bagel I got was perfectly functional, good for a walk, but I would come back to get a gift or a special treat for someone.“
“I love that this cafe is in the library! It's so nice and full of life in this intimate space. The staff is amazing & will take the time out to converse with you. The menu has so many wonderful items to choose from. My iced chai was spiced very well and the cheese danish was thick and tasted delicious. A must try where you can get a book, play at the gym and then stop by the cafe.“
“A nice small cafe for working. Got the french toast for breakfast, and it was fluffy and delicious. Paired well with a mocha latte. They have other breakfast items as well. After a few hours of working, my friend and I bought a tiramisu cake and violet cheesecake. The tiramisu was great, but I personally wouldn't recommend the violet cake. It had a very strong lavender taste, which tasted odd for me. My friend got a almond croissant, and she said it had a good balance of crunch and softness.Parking: There's a parking garage directly behind the cafe, and also an open parking lot further back (a 3 min walk).“
“Really enjoyed the food and vibe of this place. The staff was friendly, and the service was great. The center of the restaurant has shelves adorned by 100s of board games. I ordered the most basic breakfast and it was really good. The Americano was bold with chocolate and dark cherry notes. Delicious!“
“Great little shop located in lobby area of a professional building. Shelves are stocked with many different options as well as healthy fruits and vegetables. Would recommend anyone doing business in the 8720 Office Building to check them out.“
“Excellent bread and delicious sandwiches. If you like your bread crusty on the outside and delicious and perfect on the inside, you'll like Bread Furst. Their Italian vegetable sandwich is perfect. Roasted eggplant and red pepper. Broccoli rabe. Sharp provolone and balsamic. Just awesome.“
“I liiiiiike coffee . I heard about new coffee shop open silver spring . That was Adulis coffee roaster . I was stop by recently and I order my favorite latte with extra shot and toasted bagel with regular cream . Overall Everything was perfect . I will come back again“
“I needed to order a cake for a birthday and ordered less than 24 hours before I needed to pick up the cake. I called and spoke to Mohammad. He was super helpful and told me he could have the cake ready when needed. He walked me through the steps I needed to take to order the cake online and still have it ready when I needed it. I ordered the pink floral stripe cake and it was perfect; pretty and delicious! Mohammad even texted me afterwards to make sure I was satisfied! Customer service was top notch!“
