“Sitting here doing homework“

“5 stars! Every time I go in, Jamiya at Starbucks delivers an amazing experience. My first order was so good I had to come back in and even order food because everything was that well made. My drinks are always crafted in great proportion and taste perfect every time. She pays close attention to detail and makes sure everything is right. On top of that, she always has such a positive and welcoming attitude, which makes the experience even better. If I could have my drinks made by her every time, I absolutely would!“

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

“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!!“

“I love this place! It’s always very clean and the owners are so nice! I go on such a regular basis that they already know my drink and greet me daily with a smile. The food is also good. Now THAT’S really what makes this place better than Gregory’s or Compass…their customer service.“

“food was made fresh and delicious and very filling. Staff is very friendly. Outside tables and shade. It was right next to our hotel, which was a zoo for breakfast became here as it last resort. All three of my kids loved the breakfast sandwich and the yogurt. I got an iced coffee with cardamom. very good. my only complaint is that it took a little while for the sandwich to be made, but it was made fresh.“

“This is hands down the best coffee shop in DMV. Their coffee is excellent. I’d recommend their matcha, their Honey cinnamon latte, and their cold brew. Bring a friend, bring some work, bring your dog, this place is adaptable for everyone. The neighborhood really comes together here and it has become a place of community.“

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

“A surprisingly refreshing twist on a classic iced latte. The citrusy orange flavor paired well with the espresso, creating a smooth balance between bright and bold. Not overly sweet, with a creamy texture that made it easy to drink. The orange notes added a fresh summer feel without overpowering the coffee.“

“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“

“Salmon avocado toast was absolutely superb!“

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

“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!“

“Great food! The only complaint I have is the laptop policy which prevents this from being a place to get work done especially over the weekend. However that’s subjective and I can understand some of the reasoning. The food is outstanding“

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

“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 love this coffee shop!! During my months time visiting DC Jacob’s was in my neighborhood, and I’m so so grateful it was!

This shop is so charming with consistently, well-brewed, delicious coffee. They also serve very tasty/satisfying and reasonably priced food. I always looked forward to my egg sandwich on an English muffin 🫶🏻 Above all, though, it is still the staff that are all so warm and helpful. It’s an extra special treat when you’re happy with your order and the service. The team made me feel valued as a customer and as a fellow human being. I miss you Jacob’s team 🤲🏻 this is one of the best coffee shops in DC, let alone NE.“

“Great coffee, a super chill atmosphere, and exactly the kind of spot that makes easing into the day enjoyable. The bacon cheese danish was incredible, and the friendly conversation with my barista about Ted Lasso made the whole experience even better.“

“Cute spot, good oatmilk cappacino, and fast food made on order. They have a lot of bread options and turkey bacon or sausage as we as the regular ones. Limited seating in winter but enough and looks like a fun patio for warmer weather. It's in a a neighborhood and good for people watching and just being a part of daily routine of DC.“

“The high quality ingredients make for the best espresso drinks I have ever had! Delicious iced tea in the summer too.“

“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“

“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.“

“This is the perfect place! I came in the morning and it was full, and rightfully so! The staff is so friendly and just puts a smile on your face. I got a regular cold brew and the mushroom & lentil patty - both were excellent! The space is great for coworking and connecting with others. Love it!“

“This was the best coffee we had in DC. The drip coffee was solid, the vanilla latte and mocha were also excellent. Great staff and the owner was very nice. Best coffee in DC!“

“Update : came in today (May 8 - 9:10am) for breakfast with a client. Again, the same brunette - wearing jeans and a white blouse this time - was a delight. Must’ve caught her on a bad day last time. Kudos. My apologies. The breakfast was great and the service from entry to exit was fantastic.
Visited this restaurant on April 18, 2026 between 9-10:30 AM. The brunette wearing a white dress with blue flowers was extremely rude. The food would have been better had she not put a bad taste in my mouth before I ordered my food.“

“The best Ethiopian restaurant in the area! Friendly service , amazingly delicious food.“

“Visited the first sign language no speaking Starbucks .. how about it was one of the most well run Starbucks I’ve been in from Michigan to California.. and all stops in between . DC did it! What an experience“

“We visited yesterday around 2:30 PM, and the team at the counter was incredibly kind, welcoming, and helpful. They made us feel so welcome from the moment we walked in. The chicken pita was delicious, and the sea salt & olive oil ice cream... OMG. We talked about it all day. Can't wait to come back!“

“Amazing food! Great server and wait staff. Creative and unique. Would go again!“

“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.“

“I celebrated a family member's 90th birthday at your lounge on Feb 17th. The staff was awesome, food delicious and I loved the atmosphere. Will definitely be coming back!“

“Latte was exactly what I hoped for with good quality espresso. Love that they have their own area but also the ability to sit at and order from the food hall seating. Great plan to work remotely, and at least the booth I was sitting at had power outlets :) will be back.“

“Great bagels and staff. Having lived in Philly and NY, I came to DC with a high standard for bagels. Call Your Mother is the truth.“

“I’ve only been to Smoothieville twice so far, but both experiences have been great. The staff is incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful when it comes to recommending new things to try. I absolutely love the banana pudding smoothie and the curry chicken patty — both were delicious. Having a healthy food option this close to home is a huge plus, and I’ll definitely be coming back.“

“Friendly service and delicious breakfast sandwiches!“

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

“Love ❤️ This Location…Must Vist!!“

“Amazingly delicious!! They’re super quick as well. Best mofongo I’ve had in a long while.“

“Very good coffee. Excellent atmosphere. Friendly staff.“

“Awesome pastries, bread and other baked goods. Very creative seasonal menu that uses fruit and veggies at the peak of their flavor. Love love love it!“

“We had a great time last night! I had a party of 13 and the two managers I talked to were super friendly and accommodating. We sat outside, it was really lovely and the food was great! Plus they have QR codes on all the tables which made it super easy for our large party to order individually.
Highly recommend!“

“I was looking for a spot to chill, enjoy coffee, and get some work done on my laptop. Thankfully, I stumbled upon this place. The walnut, chocolate chip cookie was fire 🔥🍪, the orange blossom latte was on point, and the music selection fit the vibe perfectly. Dennis kindly welcomed me from behind the counter as a first time visitor/guest and made me feel welcomed & shared great recommendations.“

“Great service, amazing coffee! Fantastic atmosphere!“

“Whenever I come here, the baristas/cashiers are always professional and attentive. The food and drinks well made and the ambience is conducive to sitting and relaxing and/or people watching. If you don’t want to eat or drink, come for the decor. The display of cups and saucers as well as the chandelier deserves a moment of your admiration.“

“Delicious coffee, every single time we go there! Great customer service too.“

“A great breakfast and lunch spot in SW. Food is very good and on the larger portion size. Reasonably priced with a large selection, suitable for anyone's taste. Extremely quick service, small seating area - perfect for: order, grab, and go.
I live in the area and this is a good spot to go when I am hungry and not sure what I want to eat.“

“love it there. So much to do and eat. Palette22 drew me there, and I found a great entertainment distinct full of fun times. I plein air painted Morse Alley. Cool spot.“

“In Hanover the boys that work out front are awesomely amazing!! Great guys, polite, friendly and respectful!! Highly recommend!!!“

“My new favorite coffee shop! I ordered a latte and breakfast sandwich online, but forgot to order decaf, so I called the number on the Toast account, and it was the owner's personal cell (whoops!). He said he would relay the message to the cafe, and he did! The latte is great and the breakfast sandwich was also pretty good. The atmosphere is just ok, not sure I would choose to eat in. But overall happy. Special thanks to barista Diego!“

“This place is located near Pratt Street in Baltimore downtown. Crepes were delicious, and they made it right in front of us. We ordered Nutella and strawberry crepe and strawberry and banana crepe. There is not much space to sit and eat. However you can eat outside by the pier.“
