50 Best Coffee Shops near Berwyn Heights

“😍😍😍😍😘 great customer service“

“We had a great lunch! Highly recommended! 😋😋😋“

“The food is wonderful. We always eat here when we come up from Richmond, VA. The staff is great as well.“

“Great place. Wish they would open a 2nd place at Liberty Exchange in Sykesville - 2 units still open for a nice coffee place (that isn’t Starbucks!) one is right next to Basta Pasta!!“

“Cute place right in the heart of DC! Tried the cheese and onion empanadas and they were so delicious. Pastries looked yummy, and my oat milk cappuccino was really good. Highly recommend for a quick coffee to-go or snack if you're in the area!“

“I’ve been coming here for years since I used to live in the area. Always so good. I love their chai— one of the best. And even though I don’t live in the area anymore, I still come by here when I’m in the area because they never disappoint. The owner, Yung, is very friendly!“

“Great waiter- delicious food, unique and cooked perfect! Music and vibes were very very fun!!!“

“Love this place - atmosphere is very good too but would be great if there was more space, so the one less star is not an indication of anything not good. On the brighter side, there is more sitting space outside now. Had the bagel with cheese cream and açai bowl - so good!“

“Delicious and super staff!“

“I love the atmosphere of this place. When you enter La Cosecha, you’re welcomed by a variety of restaurants and small local businesses — it feels vibrant and creative.
But I’m focusing on Café Unido, because this coffee comes from my home country, Panama. So every time I’m in Washington, I have to stop by.

The space is filled with beautiful natural light coming through the large windows facing the street — perfect for enjoying a slow moment with a cup of coffee. The aroma and flavor are exactly what I expect from good Panamanian coffee: rich, smooth, and full of character.

I believe they could take even more advantage of how special it is to have a Panamanian coffee franchise in Washington — it deserves to be highlighted and promoted more. I truly hope they open more locations around the city so more people can experience it.

I tried the Caramel Latte, and it was delicious. If you like my pictures, give a follow on IG: @framinizingdiary“

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

“Super adorable family-owned bakery -- they also have a great drink menu and sell some packaged Asian snacks and ice cream too. Everything I've ever ordered here has been delicious but some favorites include: their cream bun (which they fill with cream right when you order it so that it's as fresh as possible and doesn't make the bread soggy), their black sesame mochi bread, and red bean and mochi bread.“

“My experience at maman’s was very amazing. I had the papas breakfast bowl after getting some recommendations from the worker Kevin. He was very respectful and Helpful and made my experience memorable. I’ll definitely be coming back — and hoping Kevin’s there next time.“

“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“

“Fresh delicious and healthy! Friendly staff clean and welcoming atmosphere.“

“We had the best time at KooKoo DC last night. They accommodated a table of 14 for my spouse's birthday and never let us feel like an imposition. The food was so fresh, authentic, and reasonably priced - I did a double take when we got the bill. I even felt like we went all-out with apps, drinks, and desserts! The owner was also so kind - we just felt so cared for the whole time and can't wait to visit again.“

“Such a great atmosphere, bites and drinks! 🙌🏽🙌🏽“

“First time in DC had a blast 🙌
Solo night but it never felt like i was alone 🙂
Space was super cozy and inviting and everyone made sure I was comfortable

Special shout out to my amazing bartender Jay 💕❣️ he ensured i was well taken care of will definitely be back 😀“

“Picked up an assortment of pastries for a staff meeting and wow, they were delicious! We tried the cheese pastry, guava croissant, pain au chocolat, pistachio croissant, cinnamon pecan roll and the Kouign Amann. They were a huge hit! It is always a joy to walk down the street to Soleluna for a midday pick-me-up! The service is always top notch. Thank you!“

“Did the cocktail mixing class. Great food and awesome experience!“

“Great coffee and pastries, conveniently located near the hotel we were staying at. Inside was beautiful, and service was very good. My only complaint was that my quiche Ella (cheddar cheese, leaks, caramelized onions), was almost too sweet. Not sure if that was just the onions, though. Delicious croissants.“

“I had an incredible experience here! I’ve never tasted such amazing, real single-origin Ethiopian coffee. The customer service was wonderful—warm smiles and great hospitality. The place is cozy with a beautiful cultural atmosphere, and I completely lost track of time because I felt so comfortable. I’ll definitely be getting my coffee here every chance I get. I highly recommend this spot to all coffee lovers!“

“Love everything! Can’t wait to travel to DC every year to visit.“

“Salmon avocado toast was absolutely superb!“

“Today I stopped by this place and bought some breakfast. It was delicious and fresh. Even though it was a big breakfast, it didn't take long to arrive at my table. But what I'm doing here is to congratulate the lady who served a deaf-mute person. I could see how she took his order with such patience. Thank you for seeing that, it made my heart happy“

“Lovely coffee shop but $5.20 for a croissant?? Seriously? The coffee is great, the service is lovely and the atmosphere is friendly. I found the palce to be a bit expensive but it's probably average by DC standards and the place was quite busy, so kudos to them on that.“

“Lovely coffee shop that has now turned to my go to when I need to get some work done with a delicious cup of coffee. The Wifi works well and there are plenty of outlets. The staff genuinely wants you to enjoy yourself feel comfortable in the space. I've been to a few evening events as well and highly enjoyed that. Good turn out and I'm excited to see what they put on next.“

“Great coffee and staff! Highly recommended!“

“So glad that we now have a Cafe in Downtown Anacostia to meet up with community members in a open awesome space. Staff is super friendly, supportive and helpful. While there get you a large Matcha Tea latte to boost your thoughts and energy level!“

“I was very pleased by the quality and variety of the coffee and pastry selection, and the prices are really fair for this city. A couple things to note: (1) This cafe is located inside a hostel, so the sitting area is a bit more run down than some of the images depict. There are a lot of suitcases around, etc. (2) The wait for our order was relatively long. This isn’t the fault of the barista. She was very friendly and helpful. But there’s only so much she can do when she’s 5 orders deep and the only person working. I really felt so bad there wasn’t another employee to help her, especially considering the place seems to be pretty popular with locals and travelers alike.

I highly recommend the cro’gel (croissant + bagel) which seems to be their signature dish.“

“INSANE. I WISH THEY HAD MORE LOCATIONS. I get the roasted honey peanut latte. It's delicious. These staff are amazingly nice. If you are an LGBTQ+ individual, that's a plus. Don't pass this place up in DC. It's worth the stop. It's a neat set up to look like an oil field unit with coffee beans and uses physics to make coffee.“

“Great coffee, good ambience and nice people :)“

“I'm from Texas and have been dying to find a breakfast taco spot. I might as well have been in my mom's kitchen, eating tacos on a Sunday morning. that's how amazing La Tejana tacos are!“

“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“

“Swing’s serves some of the best coffee in the city. Roasted dark, nutty, and just shy of too acidic, the kind of cup that wakes up your soul and your skepticism. The beans, flown in from Ethiopia, Guatemala, and Costa Rica, clearly traveled better than you did as mandated by GSA travel per diems.

The baristas, meanwhile, maintain the quiet confidence of people who know they’re serving excellence and would prefer you not to ruin the vibe by existing. They glide around with the aloof grace of caffeinated monks, and somehow, that indifference makes the experience feel almost holy.

It’s coffee worth the attitude. Bring humility — and cash.“

“This is absolutely one of my favorite places to go! The Roost was my go to during the pandemic with tons of outdoor seating. Since it was in my neighborhood we frequented a lot. The staff watched my little one practically grow up there! It became our meeting place and neighborhood watering hole. Quick and efficient and some of the best food and customer service! We’ve moved from the area but always stop by when in town because it feels like home!“

“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 :-)“

“My first time at PJ's and wow the Caramel Creme was on point and delicious. Beignets was a scrumptious treat !! Thank you !!“

“The best coffee i have ever tried in US. Rich, bold flavor, the morning kick you wanna without the accidity... Amazing barista and staff and the brownie is to die for.
The pastries are too dry for my taste, no crunch, no rich flavor, just a cry for some butter.“

“The staff are super friendly and they serve food right on time. Food is fresh and sumptuous. Price is reasonable and place has a great simple and clean ambience. Definitely a must go. 💯💯💯“

“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“

“My favorite place to get coffee in DC and a great neighborhood gem! They use counter culture coffee. I especially love their seasonal drink menu, and always crave their black and yellow coffee drink (lemonade and espresso). I’m not normally a sweet coffee person, but this place is an exception because of how well crafted their drinks are (think similar to a nice cocktail bar). I love that when you dine in, they include special toppings with their seasonal drinks. The place is cozy, well decorated, and the perfect place to catch up with a friend. Food and cocktails are great too - especially for a quick meal / breakfast / snack. My favorites are the sausage egg & cheese breakfast sandwich and ajiaco soup.“

“It’s a wonderful experience! The food, drink, and dessert are all prefect. Moreover, there is a great thing I must need to share: Although I fall down suddenly in the store, which is basically my own fault, the manager comes to kindly check if I’m okay super quickly. Additionally, he professionally asked if I need any help and offer some towel and some bread to comfort me. That’s the kindest and most professional manager I’ve ever met in America!“

“Great place to get a coffee, great people working here and wide selection of deli/bakery items. Also right across the street from Lincoln Park, this place has been a staple for our house“

“Just went here for the first time after F45. Service was fantastic and the man who helped us was kind enough to split our bagel without asking.

Small gestures go a long way and will definitely be going back. On top of that , great coffee and a great lox bagel.“

“great food and service nice spot“

“This is hands down my favorite coffee shop in all of DC. This coffee shop does not merely serve the best London fog, bagel sandwich, and coffee cake, but this place is warm and cozy.

I could live the rest of my life eating here everyday and be content with not missing out on other coffee shops. Maybe a bit dramatic for a Google review, but I stand by it.“

“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 .“

“Outstanding service, flavor, and value… plus an outdoor rooftop space! Couldn’t have asked for more.“

“Had a delightful lunch today at the 41st St location. Everything was delicious and beautifully presented. The dressing on the greens that comes with the sandwiches was to die for! Atmosphere was quaint and inviting. Staff was exceptionally attentive and polite even though it was busy! We can’t wait to go back!“
