Cafes near New Carrollton

“I recently visited the New Carrollton Café inside the New Carrollton Amtrak station, and I had a good experience. Granted the ongoing construction in and around station make it a little interesting to navigate but the café is open every day from 5:30 AM to 8 PM, making it the perfect stop for early mornings or late afternoons. The staff, especially the ladies working there, are incredibly friendly and welcoming. The prices are reasonable, and the café offers a great selection of food and drinks—pretty much anything you’d expect from a café, including popcorn! It's a perfect little spot to grab a bite or drink while traveling through the station.“

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

“great food and service nice spot“

“Must have the Mochi fantastic“

“I went in on 4th of July for the first time and tried an iced la banda (lavender) cappuccino at the awesome Robin's suggestion. It was creamy and perfect for the summer day, and Robin was so kind! I took my friend back the next day and we got an iced cortado, an iced orange despadura, and an iced.. vanilla latte! Yeah. Another customer suggested adding mocha to the orange, and it was HEAVENLY. I was skeptical of orange in coffee, but no, I was wrong! There's a reason why the despadura is the most popular drink! The other baristas are equally nice, and I just like the vibe there in general. We found a nice place to sit outside. I think the only suggestion I'd give is to make the coffee display in the center of the shop a bit smaller so people can get around it more easily. Unido is so cool. ☕️🌸“

“My wife and I visit regularly. We've never had a bad Café Miel. The friendly and welcoming atmosphere has been home to many wonderful conversations. We enjoy the food as well. Highly recommend!“

“As a Central Asian who grew up with a similar culture and cuisine, I can confidently say this is the best Middle Eastern restaurant I’ve ever visited.

We sat at the bar, where the two bartenders provided great service.

The dishes were creatively presented and rich in diverse flavors. The Pita with Mushrooms and Hummus was our favorite.

The Frozen Halva Bar is, without a doubt, the most unique and delicious dessert I’ve ever tried. The combination of chocolate ganache, sesame, and halva ice cream blended perfectly. Thank you, pastry Chef, Evyn.“

“The owner makes sure every cup is perfect. If you are vegan, there are real options here.“

“Delicious!! Fresh coffee and espresso, sweet treats and sandwiches! The cashier/hostess is a sweetheart! Loved her attitude! She took our order, made suggestions, and even dropped off our food. The bartista made EXCELLENT coffee. We had the Macchiato Caramello...fantastic! Very cute place! Will definitely go back.“

“This bakery, located in D.C, has a fabulous atmosphere and some superb treats! Their coffee and hot cocoa is chef’s kiss. Love this place. ❤️“

“The staff was very friendly, helpful, and overall amazing. The person who helped us gave good recommendations. Some of the things were a bit overpriced for what you’re getting, but they did have interesting food and drink options.

Parking is horrible, but that’s to be expected in Union market. there were a lot of people doing work on their laptops but other than that, there was a pretty good amount of space to be seated if you could find it.“

“Visited the café today! Loved the delectable and creative menu, the warm service, and the beautiful, cozy interior. We enjoyed the inasal, tocino, and ube latte (complete with delicate latte art) courtesy of Sun and Stars Coffee. Our kid was thrilled she could enjoy an ube steamer, too-- and didn't want to stir her drink because she found the art (Hiraya's logo in this instance) so beautiful. If you want reimagined, creative, and elevated Filipino cuisine where the flavors simultaneously bring back sensory memories of the comfort food of your childhood, this is the place for you. Can't wait to return!“

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

“Went to a sick Metal show upstairs in the music venue. Nice smaller room with killer sound. Gets pretty packed & drinks ain't cheap but a great spot to see some underground bands especially punk rock & heavy metal. Nice big rooftop patio out back. Talked to some nice folks & the bartenders weren't stuck up like most rock clubs. Lots of bar seating

Parking: Same as everywhere in DC

Wheelchair accessibility: Upstairs“

“I stopped in with friends before a event Sunday evening. The staff was warm and welcoming. I had the lentil sambusas and a peanut-infused coffee at the staff’s recommendation. The food was fast and delicious- the sambusas were warm and spicy, and the peanut coffee was delicious! In a kind gesture, the chef sent over a sampling of sushi to our table. Fresh and refreshing, the sushi was a nice complement to my sambusas and hot beverage. I’m not on this side of town often, but now I have a reason to come back.“

“The Qabuli Rice was gently seasoned, without being overwhelming, and studded with moist tender lamb. Equally impressive were the spinach and okra dishes that were fresh, tasty, and well cooked. Along with the side salad [lemony and slightly spicy], these side dishes were competing for my attention for the above reasons and being less greasy than most places. I suggested to the owner that the side vegetables should be made into a combo dish, to which they accommodated my request. Smart decor and amiable service. Their house-made saffron ice-cream is on my next visit list.“

“I’ve wanted to eat here for years, but I don’t like to wait. Today was my lucky day - I arrived about 9:30 am and was seated with no wait. The atmosphere and food were beyond exceptional. I can’t wait to go back and they take reservations 💖“

“Great place: friendly staff, good drinks, and excellent service.

I loved the vibe in this café. It’s the kind of spot where you can read a book, work on your laptop, or meet up with friends.

Jesse had a great attitude and made a perfect matcha. Thank you!

The music selection was good, and the volume was just right. I usually leave cafés if the music is too distracting, but that definitely wasn’t the case here.

This one’s officially on my list of favorite cafés and recommendations 🤍“

“I love BevCo. I've been going off and on since they opened in 2017 and it really is a great place with great food and drinks and great people. It's great! My one complaint is that they have great burgers but don't have mustard, which is a crime (I brought my own)“

“The fam and I stopped by here after a trip the Postal Museum (review to come on that for those of you who follow...aka my wife) and were really impressed. Coffee shops are a dime a dozen in the city, but good coffee shops can be pretty hard to come by.

Ebenezers was a breath of fresh air both metaphorically in the sense that it's a beautiful shop and had a really refreshing, open atmosphere, and literally because they pump the AC inside and it felt great coming in from the muggy outdoors.

The coffeehouse itself it's surprisingly spacious. On the main level there's a good amount of both indoor and outdoor seating. When we came (early afternoon) we were able to walk right up to the counter to order and had no trouble finding a spot to sit. They also have a basement seating area that had a lot of seating, but it looks like they open and close that for private events, so not sure frequently it's available. Nevertheless, it was open when we were there.

The staff was super friendly and helpful. They took our orders quickly and we were able to just sit down and wait...and wait...and wait some more. I think there was some issue with the espresso machine because the barista kept pulling shots and then smelling the coffee that came out. After doing this a couple of times he called over another employee and did the same thing with him. After a brief consultation they didn't do anything to the machine, pulled the shots for me and my wife and handed them to us.

I'm not really sure what that consultation was, but I've got to say, that little demonstration didn't give me a lot of comfort about what we would be drinking.

Nevertheless, putting that behind me, we grabbed our drinks, went outside and started sipping. Honestly, they were both great. I ordered a latte and it was wonderful, my wife ordered a lavender iced latte which was also quite nice. Maybe the barista pulling shots was just THAT exacting, who can say for sure?

All in all, this is a great spot to stop off. It's really close to Union Station, easy to walk to and a nice place to sit down and do some work. I'll be coming back and hoping the espresso machine is cleaned by then.“

“My caramel macchiato was delicious 😋“

“Very nice little cafe with excellent coffee and food. The breakfast sandwich hit the spot, hot and freshly made with scrambled eggs, cheddar, spinach and soft, not too heavy ciabatta bread. The staff were super friendly, and as an animal lover I was happy to see Chez Lily is dog friendly too. I saw a cute little pug come in while I was there.“

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

“Only one word describes this cafe: FRESH!!!! Practically every meal is made from scratch from Biscuits to Bugolgi. Excellent fusion of American, Korean, and Central American cafe style coffees and sandwiches for breakfast and lunch. Try one and you are hooked.“

“Milk and Honey is the best restaurant ever.. great waitress and staff. Great cook overall I give it a 100 out of 10“

“Delicious and healthy. Food is not as oily as in many other restaurants here.“

“We got pizza and wine here and this place is so close to a 5. They just need a fly trap in the patio, please!! The vines cover everything, cute lights, great vibes.. but I guess the flies thought so too. We got the sopressata pizza and it was really good, especially the crust. Please get a fly trap and we will come back.“

“Great service from Mulu ✅️ Great food ✅️ Good views ✅️ for our lunch party of 6“

“The dining area is small but I think that’s why it has express in the name. Other than that the food was delicious! Food was served in to go boxes which made it perfect to take the leftovers home (so much food!). We got the shrimp and grits, French toast and the egg and biscuit! Would go back!“

“The perfect spot to have lunch or a snack. The shallow pools that we have seen many of our visit add tranquility, and the light beaming in from the HIGH glass ceiling (roof) makes the place joyful. Then you have the choice of two marvelous museums: Portrait (more than pictures - a little history thrown in) and Art.“

“Food place to get work done!“

“They have a gluten free bagel that was pretty good! Not a big fluffy bagel but thr flavor was good. I asked if it was toasted on the same spot as the normal bagels and she told me it's toasted in a bag. The chai was alright, a little sweet for my taste.

Dietary restrictions: Gluten free bagel“

“The food is superb! I haven't had anything that wasn't worthy of a repeat! J & R have done it and done it well! Congratulations and Keep Rising to the Top!“

“The Hill Cafe: Breakfast Burrito Bliss! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This place serves up an amazing breakfast burrito! I had the turkey sausage burrito and it was absolutely delicious. The quality of the ingredients was top-notch, and the flavors blended perfectly. The atmosphere was also very pleasant, making for a relaxing and enjoyable meal. Highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for a tasty and satisfying breakfast!

“A chill, super affirming space and the food and drinks were great! I’ll definitely be back soon.“

“Food was great, but service was poor. The waiter kept forgetting things. He was very distracted. Also they asked on open table if this was a celebration i told them yes. My daughter sweet 16. They didn't even acknowledge it. She had on a sash and everything.“

“Great place to lock in and get some work done. Very spacious with a bohemian aesthetic, the music was a vibe, service was quick & easy

The iced matcha latte with oat milk was perfect and not as earthy as I'm used to it tasting - it paired perfectly with the chicken Caesar salad.

I think they have social events and a DJ some days; if so, I look forward to checking it out“

“What a gem!! I asked someone where a nearby coffeeshop was, and they pointed me to Zeke's, but stumbled upon this a few doors down. Amazing coffee, best bacon egg and cheese ever, and amazing mission! I don't live in the neighborhood, but will regularly travel back to visit Emma's Torch!

Vegetarian options: Clearly marked veg options

Kid-friendliness: I saw happy kids dining in:)“

“Absolutely divine!

Went here a few weeks ago to catch up with a friend and their crepes were so fresh and delicious. I still remember the taste after all these weeks haha!

Also, the picture of the owners (I assume) in front of the eiffel tower is absolutely adorable. Props to the staff, so attentive and kind.

Hope to be back soon!“

“A place very popular with public employees who work in the area, all with their good identification badge around their necks.
Places frequented by workers usually guarantee good food at reasonable prices, and the Atrium Cafe is no exception.
For a bagel with cheese, an egg sandwich, a yogurt with cereals and berries and a large coffee we cost $18: less than 10 dollars each.“

“The wife and I are visiting from Texas and Tatte is just up the street from our hotel. Stopped in for breakfast on Day 1 and will be back every day of the trip. Service was friendly and the atmosphere and food were excellent. The breakfast sandwich on sourdough is amazing! I know I need to branch out and try some variety, but the breakfast sandwich is calling me back.“

“It’s convenient right next to the Crowne Plaza Hotel. Took us 2 minutes to get there. The prices are reasonable and the food tastes great and made well and fast. The ladies there are very nice and helpful. I got the French toast and bacon and an orange juice from the cooler. And they had fresh fruit which was very sweet and delicious. My friend got the waffles with eggs and bacon and fruit and orange juice. If I lived here I’d go there a lot. Love the small places ❤️“

“La Colombe in REI NoMa Review: Hidden Gem with Great Coffee

Tucked away inside the REI in NoMa, La Colombe offers fantastic coffee. The standout drinks include the draft coffees like the vanilla latte, seasonal pumpkin spice draft, and the lemonade shandy. It's a hidden gem for coffee lovers, providing high-quality beverages in a unique setting.“

“$1 coffee is the best thing I’ve ever seen! Yes, you can get an 8oz cup of coffee for only $1. That means you can get 40 ounces of coffee here for the same price as a 12oz cup from Starbucks! That alone deserves 5 stars. The food is also very well priced, and you can get breakfast for only $3 (or less). The spaces is also good for chilling or studying by yourself or in a group. If I lived close by, I would probably come here every day ??‍♀️“

“I love supporting black own business. The owner serves and treats the customers with care, and takes very good care of my order, I LOVE THE Juice bar very much. She has it at a very great community and access to Howard Univ and public transportation and the hours are worth it.She’s a blessing and I’m bless to serve her business.I come almost once a week:)“

“Wonderful Mom and Pop run breakfast and lunch cafe. A block from the Morrow Hotel and right next to the Metro. The owners were fabulous and great to talk with. Was visiting D.C. with my Mom, son, and nephew and it was are go to for breakfast while we were there.“

“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“

“Teaism Dupont Circle Washington, DC I am not a great cook and I get too tired of eating the same old thing day in and day out so I decided to try something new after leaving my acupuncture session today. Well, needless to say the creamy curry spinach with cheese cubes and brown rice made my day.“

“stopped in while on vacation food was great nice friendly staff reasonable prices“
