“I really enjoy this place. I’ve been going since it opened. Only thing. Is that on multiple accounts the skim milk or the almond milk will be bad but the customer service is so good. I honestly don’t even think it was their fault maybe their faculty?“

“Just wanted to praise a manager quick. I was behind a woman today who was complaining that her drink didn’t taste the same, not only was the manager so friendly and so kind, but he offered to buy the drink for her, and offered his sincere apologies. He was so professional and quite a class act. They’re very lucky to have him as a manager. I didn’t catch his name, but his energy was high and he truly seemed like a gem to work with. I’d come back for his happy service alone. Thanks for being great.“

“Great service with a great smile!“

“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!!“

“Natives/Tourists/Passerby- Run, don't walk to the Lot 38 coffee shop! This must be your first pitstop in Navy Yard.

Do yourself a favor and skip those gross burnt bean chains with sketchy customer service where you feel like you're interrupting them as they forget your order. IYKYK.

Instead, head over to family-owned Lot 38, opened and operated by the sweetest folks who know the Navy Yard area well. Corner of L and 2nd SE on the same side of the street as the lobby of the Courtyard Marriott and across from the park.

The espresso brews fresh and the coffee drinks are consistently a 10/10. Lot 38 has breakfast and pastry options, both breakfast and lunch sandwiches too if you need a bit more filling bite with your brew to start the day's adventure. One of the friendliest places, this shop is always hopping and a fun community atmosphere. Even when it's packed, there's not a long wait for drinks or food. If you come by long enough they start to know your name and drink order. Good place to pop by, a nice (CLEAN!) place to meet up with your friends, or come by for a tea or coffee pick-me-up at the tables upstairs.

Start your day's adventure the best way at Lot 38 :)“

“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.“

“We accidentally discovered Warka Coffee while staying across the street.

The service was fantastic—friendly, attentive, and genuinely warm. The staff made us feel right at home and were happy to guide us through the menu.

The Ethiopian coffee was truly excellent—rich, aromatic, and prepared perfectly. You can tell they take great pride in their coffee, and it really shows in the quality of each cup. The breakfast items were also delicious and made for a great start to the day.

Overall, a wonderful spot for great coffee, tasty breakfast, and a lively, welcoming atmosphere. We’re so glad we stumbled upon it and would definitely return.“

“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“
