Coffee Shops near Aspen Hill

“Walter was EXTREMELY accommodating when realizing this was not the correct location for pickup. I was running late and he decided to have my order prepared there anyway!! This type of customer service is hard to come by and I appreciate it as I’ve been a loyal customer of Dunkin for years! Kudos to Walter and his staff!“

“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!“

“I ordered a cake for my son’s first birthday, and I couldn’t be happier with the result! Wendy went above and beyond. It was clear she put a lot of care and attention into the cake. The cake was not only beautiful but also incredibly delicious. It was a big hit at the birthday party, and many guests complimented how tasty it was. Thank you so much for helping make my son’s first birthday so special. I highly recommend Morning My Day to anyone looking for a perfect cake for their celebrations!!“

“This coffee shop is a hidden gem! The moment you walk in, you’re greeted by the warm, inviting aroma of freshly brewed coffee. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, making you feel right at home. Their menu has a great variety, from rich espresso to creamy lattes and even delicious pastries. The ambiance is cozy, with comfortable seating and soft lighting, perfect for relaxing or getting some work done. I tried their signature cappuccino, and it was hands down the best I’ve had. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a quality coffee experience!”“

“Favorite local coffee spot. Great staff! Great coffee!“

“Nice clean place, great staff, great smoothie & coffee ?

I wanted to get coffee while my wife wanted a smoothie so we stumbled into this place. She loved her smoothie so much that she decided to get another one for our kid (they usually share one). The 2 staff members were amazing and answered every question she had in a very pleasant manner and allowed my wife to substitute one of the ingredients in the smoothie.“

“Great happy hour prices and good selection! Nicest owners“

“Came here twice so far, and plan to keep returning. Their coffee is delicious! Not burnt or bitter like a lot of other places, including at well-known chains. Their syrups are tasty and they don’t make the drinks overly sweet. The baristas are always kind and welcoming. It’s a great place to stop after visiting Rock Creek Park, or to study/work on your laptop. Even on weekends, there are always seats. They have outdoor seating too.“

“Went there last weekend and everything I ordered was delicious, I was inundated with an abundance of delicious choices, the decor was open and family friendly and the service was impeccable“

“This is by far the BEST local coffee in the area the coffee is to die for and the Java burger is the best I ever had in my life Anita ( I think her name is) the cashier/barista is amazing her recommendations for coffee and food are excellent“

“I was in a training near the 15th Street location of Zeke’s. Found it the first morning and went back every day. Shared my experience with others and we all loved it. A local was amazed at her coffee and will be a regular now. The employees were so kind and remembered my order every single day. Best dirty chai I’ve ever had! Quality coffee. Friendly employees. Great prices.“

“Very good Dessert , and Rana is a very Sophisticated and respectful person. Finally, I can eat delicious sweets without flying to a very far place. Thank you Rana“

“We enjoyed one of the best meals we have ever eaten in Bethesda in all the 34 years we've lived here. If you love food prepared from scratch from the freshest ingredients, food beautifully plated, and served by warm, informative wait staff AND you have not yet tried ala, head there now!

We happened to be there during DC's Restaurant Week. We were offered the regular and the DCRW menus. So many enticing dishes! We settled on the four-course DCRW menu which started with four generous servings of the signature spreads, a large bowl of pickled veg, olives, and sundried tomato strips. We would never have ordered the pickles on our own, but they were a revelation as were the olives that came with.

Next came the Mucver Fritters—surprisingly light mix of thinly threaded veg puffed into a fritter—and Batata Hara, heavenly pillows of potato slices with a delicious, crispy crust served over the amazing house-made harissa. For mains, we ordered Adana Kebab and Garides Soujok. The kebab was juicy, delicious, and surprisingly spicy. The piquancy was balanced by the smooth and cool labneh served alongside. The Garides (shrimp) were very tasty, lightly spicy, and plentiful.

We almost asked our server Usain to box up dessert, because we were feeling pretty full. He looked so downcast we changed our minds and enjoyed our desserts at his table: Antep Baklava and Zalabia—wonderfully light balls of fried dough served over a remarkable house-made cream cheese.

Speaking of Usain, his service was delightful. His advice on ordering was excellent, his stories of the origins of the dishes were enlightening and entertaining, and he managed our table brilliantly. The opening dishes were served with two pita which we finished before we had eaten all of the spreads and pickles. Usain came to the table and said he could bring us more pita, but he advised against it because he didn’t want us not to be able to enjoy all the rest of the food to come. Great advice, that! We were lucky to have arrived at ala relatively early and were able to have more of Usain’s attention that would have been the case during peak dining hours.“

“I'm visiting friends in the area and was looking for a quiet place to have coffee before starting work.
I lucked out when I found this place.
Not only did I have a great breakfast, but also an incredible cup of coffee!
I ordered The Cherry on an everything bagel to go alongside my coffee. Insanely delicious.
I'll definitely be back and hope to check out their other location before I leave.“

“Good pastries, good coffee drinks and alcoholic drinks. Good venue for music.“

“DELICIOUS CHAI LATTE!!

I am a chai latte lover and their ultimate chai latte is something you can’t miss! It’s sweet with the aroma of vanilla and has a nice warm taste that soothes your body! Don’t miss on it. The best in DMV, do not remove your ultimate chai, you’re onto something here. I’ve been going around DMV to find strong and good chai latte. Ever since I went to Hawaii I can’t find something strong and delicious chai latte

Oh can I say the ham and cheese croissant with the Italian herb on top is just SO delicious! They toast it fresh for you and the croissant is buttery and soft. Most croissant places would be hard and left out for a while. I am satisfied with the quality.

I felt their almond croissant is ok, I like mine a bit sweeter, maybe add sweet almond paste in the middle and fill it a bit more! It tasted like a regular croissant with just white sugar on top with almond pieces.

Customer: fast and quick to process orders
Price: worth every penny!

They have tables for you to dine or patios outside. They have wifi for you to work if you want a good morning work session in. Would come here again, love it here

They have free parking everywhere since it’s in a plaza“

“Greeted by the sweetest woman behind the counter! Came here on a Friday afternoon and there was no line. Ordered a few drinks that were only about $5 each, boba included! Generous portions of boba included, and even though the milk teas are powdered it is a very nostalgic taste. Will be back to support them next time I’m in Rockville!“

“Great coffee and the baristas are excellent!“

“Quaint little family owned coffee shop with an attentive staff. Great coffee!“

“This is the most perfect spot, on this morning. Delicious coffee, wonderful, easy listening horn jazz playing, food like you'd make on a Sunday at home. Incredible service. I'm grateful to have stumbled upon this place on this adventure.“

“I ended up at the Weathon location just by chance while waiting for an appointment in the area. The place is a counter with few tables located in the Civic Center/Library Hall. Coffee is really good, pastry was fresh and the lady at the counter was polite and kind. Highly recommended“

“It was friday late afternoon. We got a bunch of pastries and tried them all. They are all very good. They are freshly baked every morning. I love pecan pies and cheesecake with figs. I loved them so much I got them for my friends' breakfast gathering thr next day. I shared the pictures and they cant wait to try them!!!!“

“Excellent food. Authentic Vietnamese taste. Very clean flavors.“

“Best cup of coffee in Montgomery County. Nice people, good food.“

“I came here right when the restaurant opened and sat at the bar for the happy hour. Food came out quickly, love the bread a lot. We got the meatball, the grilled octopus with finger potatoes (please try this dish it’s so good). They also accommodated my request regarding the pasta, which was very nice of them. Tiramisu is good too. Would come back.“

“Such a gem! Cannot recommend this place enough!
Got a Iced Caramel Latte and a chocolate muffin and 2 samosas.
It was so good!
Then saw someone recommend Fetira with honey so I got that and another Latte.
Fetira with honey is so good. Reminds me of a Korean sweet pancake. ?
Atmosphere is also amazing and staff was so nice.

They also have an ATM, hookah, ria money transfer available.

Vegetarian options: Samosa, salads, fetira

Parking: Parking in the front and extra parking in the back

Kid-friendliness: Family Friendly place

Wheelchair accessibility: Accessible to wheelchairs“

“Very good food and the manager Mr. Louis Anand is very pleasant and courteous. I tried their weekend specials and regular menu items and the food is delicious. I frequently dine in this restaurant. And I recommend this restaurant.

Vegetarian options: Thalia meals, vegetables curries and side dishes.“

“The service was above and beyond tonight. The game guru did a great job finding and teaching us just the right game.“

“Great Ethiopic menu! Lovely coffee cups.“

“First time I visited District Cafe today and the food was absolutely amazing. Friendly staff. Will definitely be back“

“Nice outdoor patio and great service.“

“Today I had the best fried chicken sandwich since Kevin Tien’s Perfect seasoning—a little heat but not too much, smashed avocado, coleslaw, and chicken that had just the right amount of crispy covering that kept the chicken moist. I can’t wait to return for another.“

“It has a lovely and relaxing atmosphere. The owner is really friendly. I ordered a smoked salmon sandwich, which came on a bagel with salad and chips. Both were great. It costed $11.36, final total, which is a good price. I'd highly recommend Zed's Café.“

“spacious inside. some seating outside as well.. good place to eat, drink, and view art.“

“This cafe has the yummiest treats and delicious coffees with all the fixins! Cutest location right next to the Gaithersburg Train Station and Community Museum. Plenty of seating inside and out on benches. We were here on the prettiest fall day.“

“I’m from SEA & PJs beat my high coffee standards! Great beignets - like yummiest thing at Pike Place X3. Good on a warm afternoon, but when it’s 40° and raining, that chicory-smoke-roast will restore the soul. 10/10.“

“Great food and friendly service with plenty of seating both inside and out! It's a bit pricey but the food quality more than makes up for it.

The food here is excellent. I've had the cuban, the santiago bowl, and the empanadas which were all excellent. The variety and changing menu during the seasons is a nice touch. For drinks, they have a good selection of cafes and smoothies along with cocktails. The miami sunset and mojitos are worth trying!

Parking: It's a free lot out front but the parking center tends to be busy and can be hard to find a spot in front of the shop.“

“I walked in few times this month, I was welcome by gentleman behind the counter, and he had outstanding customer service, and food is worth the price, there is few food I think overprice. I enjoy come in here. I will recommend anyone to stop by buy foods and/or drinks.“

“I go here as often as I can whenever I’m in the area and it is always a truly delightful experience. I usually order the #12 sweet crepe that comes with nutella, banana, blueberry, and blackberries when I go and it never disappoints in quality and service. I highly recommend this establishment for anyone who enjoys a good crepe and/or supporting local businesses!“

“I love coming here. From the staff to the food, everything is amazing. Food is always fresh and delicious with plenty of healthy options. Mitch & Kenny do an excellent job taking care of their customers. The cookies are better than crumbl.“

“Biked to this trendy coffee shop. Ordered a ham and cheese croissant, cinnamon swirl, and pastry filled with spicy cheese/ tomato (I think). All were good; I’d give them a B-. Line was wild, and didn’t move too quickly. Clean restrooms, one even has a CHANGING TABLE, which is always so hard to find!!! I like the water station on the side and indoor and outdoor seating options!“

“great service amazing coffee would definitely come again ☺️“

“I pick Black Lion Cafe over Starbucks because I love the atmosphere and baristas.“

“I recently stopped by La Colombe Coffee Roasters in Bethesda, and it was an absolute delight. The aroma of freshly roasted coffee beans filled the air, creating a cozy atmosphere. The baristas were friendly and knowledgeable, and the coffee they served was simply exceptional. I highly recommend trying their specialty blends for a truly memorable coffee experience.

Parking: It depends at what time you willvisit this place“

“I met up with my boss in person here for the first time because we are both fully remote. This was a great coffee shop in a convenient location. The Nitro Cold Brew was great on a very hot day. The seating and tables were well laid out and comfortable. The A/C was cool and sorely needed. I wish there was a coffee shop like this near my home in Michigan.

Parking: Parallel parking is available in the street in front of the coffee shop and a parking lot is available in the back.“

“Love this store. Always friendly atmosphere. The barista, Elisabeth I believe, kept a conversation with me while making my drink, asking for my foam preferences and temperature, because I told her I had a long day ahead of me. She wanted to ensure my drink stayed warm throughout my day. She smiled and wished me a wonderful day. I hope her manager thanks her on my behalf. She is one of the few baristas that keep up the customer care aspect of Starbucks that has been unfortunately dwindling.“

“Great Ethiopian coffee and general coffee and chai, plus treats like pastries and even pupusas.Great location: inside the community center which is home to a bookstore, library and common areas where you can relax, wifi and eat and drink.Excellent and friendly service.“

“I am extremely in love with this place, I come with my family and always with friends.

I am always very well attended, the employees are always cheerful and attentive.

Kid-friendliness: My daughters love this place ✨“
