8 Best Cafes in Silver Spring

“it's the best restaurant in the DC area by far.“

“Charming bakery and café with a good assortment of baked goods and bubble tea. Everything we've had here has been fantastic and affordable. It's a family run place too which is always better than a chain. Hope this place gets the business it deserves.“

“Amazing place, all four visits have been delicious, and incredible. The dishes are so beautiful they could be in magazines…. But they’re far better in my belly! I absolutely love this place, heading there for the fifth time later today 😊“

“I was heading to an appointment but I could smell the spices in the air. This was a major surprise. Quick service and flavorful food, with a fusion of Habesha and American cuisine. Truly a hidden gem in Silver Spring!!“

“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!“

“Black Lion Coffee,, Where Productivity Goes to Take a Nap

Walking into Black Lion Coffee feels like stepping into that friend’s living room who somehow owns six different types of throw pillows but still makes it look chic. The atmosphere is so relaxed that even your to-do list will quietly close itself and take a seat.

The coffee? Bold enough to make you believe you could start a side hustle before lunch, smooth enough to make you forget you’ve been starting a side hustle. And let’s talk pastries: they have so many options it’s less of a café and more of a carb-based art gallery.

Croissants, muffins, tarts, and if it’s flaky or sugary, it’s here, probably whispering your name.

The vibe is calm without being sleepy, hip without being pretentious. It’s the kind of place where you’d write a novel, or at least pretend to write one while accidentally eating two scones.

In short: come for the coffee, stay for the pastries, and accept that you’re going to lose track of time, and maybe adopt a new personality as a chill, mysterious café regular.“

“Open on Saturdays now!Best food in the whole area. Fast food and great prices for quality food is hard to find. Love the crab food items especially the cream of crab soup they do once a week sometimes. Big fresh chunks. Man. So good.“

“Great little shop located in lobby area of a professional building. Shelves are stocked with many different options as well as healthy fruits and vegetables. Would recommend anyone doing business in the 8720 Office Building to check them out.“
