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!“

“My purchase was very fast. I ordered a Big Mac and a lemonade. It took 7 minutes for my order to be delivered. The presentation of the food was very organized. The lemonade was perfectly measured and in perfect quantities. The food was very organized, of good quality, and at an excellent temperature for human consumption. The staff was very presentable in their respective uniforms. The bathrooms were very clean. The place was very clean, also very pleasant, and in excellent condition. 100/100“

“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!“

“My friends and I had a wonderful dinner experience here. Abdullah was our server and it was obvious from the advice and explanations he gave that he was really knowledgeable and experienced. Appetizers, main dishes and drinks were delicious and enjoyable. We will definitely come back, you can ask for a good service from him. Excellent service and thank you for your interest!“

“This is hands down the best cafe in the DC area. They take coffee making down to a science and do it with attitude. The ambiance is great.

It’s a big bike (bicycle) hang out spot over the weekends, lots of folks riding on the Rhode Island Ave Trolley trail divert here.

Their food options are very light but they do have decent pastries and bagels with cream cheese.

But all that other stuff aside, if you are a coffee enthusiast, you MUST check this place out. It raises the standard for coffee in the greater dc area.“

“I recently discovered nomtastickim on Instagram and her Asian restaurant reviews. I don't like American food, but I've liked everything I've eaten after seeing her Asian restaurant reviews.
I picked up three items this morning at Morning My Day. The choices were plentiful and tempting. A coconut braid-not too sweet, just perfect for early morning with coffee or tea, a curry pork sung bread that was absolutely hands down delish-heated it in the oven for 5 minutes and ate it with hot sauce, and a purple yam flower bun-delicious but know that the bread consistency might not be what you're used to? It's a very moist dense dough. The lady had a genuinely welcoming smile. The shop was easy to find. I found parking quickly. There is one table, maybe two. It's more of a carry-out place. I will be back.“

“Delicious and super staff!“

“This is a charming locally owned café that offers exceptionally fresh food and coffee - they roast and grind their own beans on site. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming and the owners take the time to truly greet every customer of which there are many regulars. I am thrilled to have a wonderful place to go whenever I'm in Bethesda. I've been twice so far and plan to frequent more often ❤“

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

“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“

“Wonderful coffee and service!“

“Heidy was amazing!! She was really patient, we had a party of 7 and unfortunately we didn’t all get there at the same time. She gave us recommendations and didn’t rush us at all. She was very funny and nice. The food was fresh and good. This was the elisa's mediterranean harvest bowl. Would recommend!“

“excellent peruvian foood!!!! totally recommend!!!!!! i was very impressed and drove 1.5hrs to try it. worth the drive!!!!!!“

“Love the latte flight! And the sandwiches are delicious!“

“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.“

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

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

“Salmon avocado toast was absolutely superb!“

“The coffee is absolutely amazing, reasonably priced, and every single person at Nagadi is delightful and welcoming. But I really miss when they were open on Sundays :-)“

“Found and ordered through uber eats so I can't comment on service nor atmosphere, but the food is delicious! Coconut Bowl and mangonada are my favorite; Pina colada smoothie was not overly sweet which I appreciate. Had he green smoothie which I would have liked some ginger in there. Blend delight was good as well. Highly recommend“

“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“

“Rue Café is a neighborhood fixture with the sweetest, most accommodating staff (who know how to put together damn good playlists--I swear i'm on Shazam basically every time I visit).
The food is good, and unique in its offerings relative to much of the cafe hangouts/restaurants nearby. It also helps that the staff (and patrons) are overwhelmingly cute & seemingly queer ;)

10/10 would smile and let my gaze linger a couple seconds more than usual with the person handing me my order again <3“

“Great community coffee shop!“

“Incredible tasting bubble tea with very competitive prices for the area. This shop is in Rockville and there’s practically a bubble tea spot on every corner, but this one is worth your time and money. Kevin, the owner, is a super sweet older Chinese man who takes true pride in his teas. You can taste the love and effort. If you need good quality boba at least once a week like me, then this is the place to go! Thanks Kevin!“

“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“

“I am not an egg person. I chose this location cause I saw they had a non egg bagel option. When there, they were out of one of the ingredients so I had to get an egg bagel. BUT IT WAS DELICIOUS. They made me an egg white version of the sandwich which is OFF MENU. Very accommodating and again soooo good even though I generally dislike eggs.

The coffee was delicious. Which is my number one thing.

It was a very cute cafe. It got HOT though because they roasted the coffee beans right there in front of you. Which was also pretty cool to see.

Service was pretty slow. But overall good. Especially considering I ordered off menu.

I really enjoyed it and will definitely be back.“

“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.“

“Cool little spot on downtown Bethesda - the atmosphere is dimly lit and sophisticated - great energy. The food was great - we had the tostada, beet salad, and grilled shrimp - all of which were delicious. Service was good and we will definitely come back.“

“Great venue with two moods: the front elegant, cozy, warm. The back a large space, bright, packed, and energetic (hard to have a conversation) like a true Italian restaurant.

It's a good Italian option in DC.

Don't miss the parmigiana di melanzane, a deconstructed unconventional execution that works. Fritto misto lightly fried, delicious!

Good carbonara, with a generous serving of very good guanciale
The agnolotti e limone : tasty but needs some tuning: dough it too tick - too much past! also difficult to cut, and, when you do, all the filling come out.

Tiramisù : not a huge fan, missed some coffee.

Enjoyed the lambrusco!“

“What a welcoming little Ethiopian coffee shop! Once a market, Dire Coffee opened in 2020. Family-owned, Dire Coffee serves Ethiopian coffee beans in all different ways- black coffee, lattes, and more. I ordered the Pumpkin Spice Latte. It came out hot and strong. The woman behind the register, who's the wife of the owner, asked how sweet I wanted my latte. She was very kind!

To eat, they have a variety of food. I ordered one sambusa and it was filled with lentils. It hit the spot!

The space itself is small, but comes with many places to sit. There's a small parking lot out front.“

“My favorite place to get boba/tea! The service is great and the drinks are always high quality! Really recommend! : )“

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

“Salty dog iced latte so yummy 🤤“

“Nice outdoor patio and great service.“

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

“Really enjoyed this place. Went after ordering online and wanted to see the place. I’m glad I found an Indian place which is authentic by DMV standards. Will be coming back! The owner is also so nice and kind and really everything about this place was lovely. They truly care about your food experience“

“I recently had the pleasure of discovering Hello Vietnam, a Vietnamese restaurant located in Rockville, MD, and it was love at first bite. I cannot sing enough praises about this hidden gem. The standout dish at Hello Vietnam is undoubtedly their "phở thố đá sườn bò". This is hands down one of the most special pho dishes I have ever had the pleasure of savoring. The beef ribs are cooked to perfection, tender and flavorful. The broth is rich and aromatic, and the noodles are perfectly cooked. It is a true symphony of flavors that is both comforting and oh-so-delicious. There are many other options that are as delicious such as “bánh cuốn”, “bánh đúc, “bún bò Huế”, etc. The best part? The prices at Hello Vietnam are incredibly affordable, making this culinary delight accessible to all. Beyond the exceptional food, the customer service at Hello Vietnam is truly top-notch. The staff members are attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu. They know exactly what is expected of them and go above and beyond to ensure that every diner has a memorable dining experience. Their warm and affectionate demeanor makes you feel right at home, adding an extra layer of charm to the overall dining experience. The location of Hello Vietnam is also quite convenient, making it easy to find and access. The restaurant itself is spacious and clean, providing a comfortable and inviting atmosphere in which to enjoy your meal. Whether you're looking for a quick lunch or planning a leisurely dinner with friends and family, Hello Vietnam has you covered. I have had the pleasure of dining at Hello Vietnam twice now, and I can confidently say that I will keep coming back whenever I am in town. The delicious and unique dishes, exceptional customer service, convenient location, and welcoming setting make this restaurant a true standout in the Rockville dining scene. Don't miss the opportunity to experience it for yourself – you will not be disappointed!“

“Amazing place and services. They serve beautiful bakery. Especially, white whipped cream cake is the best. It’s perfectly balanced in sweetness, with light whipped cream, fresh fruit, and incredibly soft cake layers—it all comes together beautifully.“

“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“

“I can see why people want to keep this little spot a secret. Tucked away on a side street this unassuming coffee shop is a real gem.

I got a caramel latte and one of the creme donuts and the coffee impressed me at the first sip. Really smooth, not bitter and perfect sweetness. The donut was a perfect accompaniment. Service was attentive and quick.

I'll definitely be back.“

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

“Finally a local Kosher establishment that understands the concept of having high quality coffee and pastries. I couldn't be more pleased.“

“One of the BEST coffees you can get in the DMV! Seriously, espresso was dialed in perfectly and milk was steamed exactly as it should be. I enjoyed the roast & flavor profile of the espresso beans. Service was quick. Inside was super super pretty with plants and abundant seating, but it may be too popular of a spot (I like quieter spots to relax lol.)

Second visit: tried something different (flavored latte) and it was equally great!“

“Best cappuccino I’ve had since Italy! Great service and cozy atmosphere! I’ll be back!“

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

“Fantastic pastries! The fruit/berry pastries and mochi donuts are my go-to and my husband loves all the varieties of croissants. The coffee can be hit and miss (sometimes the flavorings they put in their specialty lattes are a tad overpowering) but they're good enough that I will keep ordering them. Staff is always great, too. Very friendly and they work hard to make sure the displays are full and fresh.“

“6 years after my first review, 7.5 years since I first darkened the door on my way to a job interview, and this continues to be my favorite place in the DMV. They have other locations now that are bigger and fancier, but the OG is homey, friendly, and perfect. The coffee and other drinks are delicious, the food is lovingly prepared by magicians in the tiny kitchen, tables are regularly cleaned, and the counter staff is always courteous and helpful even when swamped by the brunch rush. The over-medium eggs in my go-to huevos rancheros are always perfectly cooked, the slaw on the pupusas is a bright and crunchy accompaniment to the cheesy masa goodness, and the banana pudding made me a convert after not liking banana desserts for decades. When I've been able to tear myself away and order other things I've never been disappointed. They put just as much care into takeout orders as eat-ins. Yes, the prices are bougie, but I've never felt like I didn't get my money's worth in comparison to similar establishments. I've even bought a piece of art from one of their regular featurings of local artists on the wall. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would.“

“Me and my friend came here and the food was so tasty! the brocolli cheddar soup was perfect and the sandwich was too! The staff is so kind and there are plenty seating options indoor and outdoor. I don’t live nearby but i will definitely be making the trip again soon just for this amazing place!“

“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.“

“Literally so cute and the food/drinks were SO GOOD! The owners were very sweet. I got a hot chocolate and a Nutella and banana crepe and both were absolutely amazing. The hot chocolate was creamy and chocolatey and it was also the perfect temperature. I recommend adding whip cream as it really elevated the flavor with the contrasting temperatures. My friend got a turkey and cheese crepe and a caramel Frappuccino, both of which were very tasty. The savory crepe was super yummy and the caramel Frappuccino was sweet and frozen/creamy. Overall 10/10 and I definitely want to come back in the future.“
