22 Best Coffee Shops in Bethesda

“Wow! What a fantastic place! I didn't expect much coming in for a business meeting, but both the atmosphere and food was just amazing!
Interior design is so well done - all the details are impressive, as well as a general look and feel.
And food... mmm.. food was 10 out of 10. 2 light dishes, dessert, tea and cocktail - everything was simply delicious! All the tastes in each dish are perfectly combined!
Service was average, but the other two components compensated fully for it.
I strongly recommend and I will definitely come back soon!“

“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 ❤“

“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!“

“Nice outdoor patio and great service.“

“I normally don't write reviews, but the red velvet cake with cheesecake frosting is DELICIOUS!!! Highly recommend 10/10 ,it was nice and moist and not super sweet like others!! The customer service was great. Will definitely be back!!“

“Fantastic group meal at Beth’s tonight! Staff was very welcoming and greeted our group promptly. As a larger group we wanted to try a variety of delicious items and shared them together. We ordered one of each of the Bites menu items. My favorite was the Old Bay Shrimp! 😍🍤 - dessert was delicious and cocktails well crafted. Approachable menu and eclectic environment .“

“Amazing bakery. All the cookies I had were super high quality even after I ate them a day later in the microwave. These cookies are very tall, with a warm soft center and crunchy exterior. I got the regular chocolate chip, which has a lot of chocolate chips. I also got the rocky road and Caramel coconut chocolate chip cookie which were both also great. High price but even higher quality and value. Highly recommend this place if you’re in the area.“

“its very good but it could definitely use some nugget ice since the ice they already have is just horrible in every aspect, its not enjoyable to chew on and it completely changes the taste of the drink, nugget ice is definitely the move and should be a must for every starbucks“

“Love this location. Feels like the tv show CHEERS!“

“I tried their seasonal banana spiced iced Matcha and it was delicious. Also try their apple cider and their pumpkin chai. The parking was perfect. It was close to the location as well as the space. It was very clean and welcoming. Maria was very nice and friendly and allowed me to try different flavors of the gelato I love the pumpkin pecan gelato. I also purchased some gelato to go. They actually have really great tasting coffee. Definitely will be back again.“

“Had a great time here. So many selections and fashion lines to choose from . I’ll be ha k .“

“southern and northern Italian specialty foods. Chef Ettore the best!“

“Outstanding coffee! Great service. Awesome ambience.“

“Speaking from a doordash customer.

First food was fresh on arrival and delicious. Pleasantly surprised as I've been catfished by restaurants on doordash before. The only down side is the packaging for certain foods that can get soggy. I ordered brioche French toast with baked apples and some sort of cream already assembled and maple syrup already on it. You should invest in smaller containers to have these items on the side so that the French toast doesn't absorb everything or get too soggy before it arrives. Other than that everything else was great.“

“A friend and I had dinner at Nordstrom Market Place at Montgomery Mall (Bethesda, MD) on Saturday, 1/18/2025. The dinner was exceptional. From the Chef's Selection menu, I chose the braised beef ragu served with cheese tortellini, and it was outstanding. I swear the tortellini tasted like it was made fresh just for me - it literally melted in my mouth. The braised beef was cooked to perfection. The ragu sauce, with chunks of tomato and spinach, was delicious. My friend had the tomato basil soup and a beautiful salad and said both were delicious. We had a 6 pm reservation but it wasn't needed as the restaurant was not crowded. On a scale of 1-5 (5 belong difficult to converse with others at your table), I give this restaurant a 0.5 - the room was peacefully quiet. We had no problem conversing with each other and there was no background music coming through the speakers. Staff were attentive and pleasant. I highly recommend this cozy restaurant and plan to return very soon.“

“Since my spouse worked at Clyde's, her father has always enjoyed the Quartermaine Clyde's blend. Without fail- we pickup 2 lbs of Clyde's Blend to send him every year, and the staff generously provides a free small coffee while we wait for them to bag the beans.“

“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“

“The person at the register was very kind and accommodating. He was patient with my questions and even took a few bucks off because I was buying so many chocolates as gifts. Some of the chocolates are expensive, but there were less expensive options as well. The store has seasonal items and sells drinks like coffee. The seating area was comfortable. Parking can be a little stressful if trying to find parking in a downtown area is usually stressful for you.“

“I have been here several times, I feel I should leave a review. The place is super friendly, I got a welcome smile when I entered, was given ample time to make my choices, and boy there are many choices, was amazed by what I purchased, will defiantly come back again to try something new.“

“Ok...the manager (K) and salesperson (J) were FABULOUS!! It's because of their customer service, knowledge and being personable that made my sister and I stay long and buy more...smh..uughh..to angst we go through for great coffee in a pleasant welcoming space!! Please run to this location and stay and chat with the manger K while J brews you a wonderful new holiday limited edition blend...they dont mind how long you stay and be social!“

“Beautiful salads and sandwiches. Extremely fresh. Prices are reasonable. A large chef salad is $6.25, dressing included, a Ham & Swiss on Croissant is $5.70. Coffee is fresh and hot and delicious with a lot of choices and much less expensive than the coffee shop that starts with an "S". I haven't tried them, but the great variety of breakfast baked goods looks fantastic too. Immaculately clean.“

“they make my semi-difficult drink to perfection!!!“
