50 Best Cafes near Wheaton

“I ended up at the Weathon location just by chance while waiting for an appointment in the area. The place is a counter with few tables located in the Civic Center/Library Hall. Coffee is really good, pastry was fresh and the lady at the counter was polite and kind. Highly recommended“

“I been going here since I was a kid and the food never get old. My favorite food to get in wheaton mall. They use to remember me back in 2018 when I use to go a lot but now they forgot about me sadly. 10/10 food love it a lot. Dont listen to these other reviewers this food been the best since I was a little kid“

“I love this place! The food is phenomenal! I can’t get over the tempeh burger!!!“

“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.“

“Must have the Mochi fantastic“

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

“We had the best time at KooKoo DC last night. They accommodated a table of 14 for my spouse's birthday and never let us feel like an imposition. The food was so fresh, authentic, and reasonably priced - I did a double take when we got the bill. I even felt like we went all-out with apps, drinks, and desserts! The owner was also so kind - we just felt so cared for the whole time and can't wait to visit again.“

“great food and service nice spot“

“Excellent food and the best chai!“

“The food here was incredible and the ambiance is very nice! There is a nice variety of beverages, especially cold ones for the summer time. The staff were super friendly, especially Enrique, who came to chat with us. Although they weren’t doing seating service, the food arrived at our table very fast.“

“A breakfast restaurant can provide a comfortable setting for traditional morning meals, coffee, sandwiches, and other daytime options. A varied menu allows different preferences to be accommodated, while efficient service is especially important during busy morning hours. Compared with a quick grab-and-go option, a full breakfast restaurant provides a more relaxed dining environment. Fresh preparation, reasonable portions, and a comfortable atmosphere all contribute to a more enjoyable experience for casual morning dining.“

“first time here, the staff was very welcoming. food was fresh and delicious. Can't wait to come back and try more items“

“I just had an amazing breakfast here! The menu has a great selection of vegetarian options, healthy and so delicious.“

“Had a fantastic experience at Maman in DC. Dakota, Paul, and Kevin provided exceptional service from start to finish, they took the time to walk me through the menu, offered thoughtful recommendations, and even crafted a special drink just for me that was outstanding. The baked goods were absolutely delicious as well. Truly great hospitality all around, and I really appreciated the extra care they put into making the experience memorable. Highly recommend!“

“Nice atmosphere . Troy was a great host/server.“

“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’ve ordered 2 cakes now and consistently then have been 10 out 10 for flavor and design. Their cakes are cute and fun while tasting delightful- you can taste the real ingredients, and every bite is light but sweet without over doing it. The owners are also very nice, family oriented and accommodating. Highly recommend!“

“This place was an absolute gem during our week-long stay in DC. We visited it a whopping five times! We had such a great time, especially when we made a funny joke about breakfast for the next morning. 😂 Because we had already eaten it .“

“This cafe is the best part of cafes. Amazing tasty food. Genuinely good coffee. Friendly staff. I love the atmosphere. The seating is cozy and there’s always calming music playing. The free water is infused water! In the morning this is the place to wake up in and it will set your day off for success.“

“My wife and I stopped here for some breakfast before heading out for our day. When you walk in, the place has a nice quaint atmosphere. We ordered a breakfast burrito and a bagel breakfast sandwich. The food was really good! It did take a little bit of time for our food to be ready, but the guy behind the counter was so pleasant and running his butt off!“

“Delicious and super staff!“

“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!“

“It is a cool and nice lounge!“

“Today I had the best fried chicken sandwich since Kevin Tien’s Perfect seasoning—a little heat but not too much, smashed avocado, coleslaw, and chicken that had just the right amount of crispy covering that kept the chicken moist. I can’t wait to return for another.“

“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.“

“The service is excellent, and the food is beautifully prepared and delicious, served on lovely Armenian-style plates. You can also purchase products from Armenia. I wish you every success and offer a big Armenian shnorhakalutyun (thank you) ☀“

“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!!“

“This has definitely become my new local coffee shop. It’s the kind of place you can go to every day before work starts—it has already become that for me.

The atmosphere is great; it’s a very easy place to get some work done or settle in with a book, and the outdoor seating is a huge plus. I love coming here in the morning for an iced mocha and their sausage, egg, and cheese on an everything bagel. The seasoning is excellent and the food is always fresh.

The staff is super nice and they are incredibly quick with orders. I’m already planning on heading back this Saturday with my new read.

Highly recommend!“

“Toastique is my favorite! That Green Machine smoothie can cure just about anything. I visited today and accidentally dropped my smoothie before I had a sip. They sweetly made me a fresh one and I left feeling embarassed...but I bet this smoothie will cure that, too.“

“Suosittelemme Chef Mikko Catering ravintolaa ❤️😍“

“Great buffet and grill that feels like home. The owners are like family! Chef does a great job!“

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

“Thank you,Great food with very nice and friendly staff. Love this Lilit cafe“

“Good shop, good pie. Placed an order for their lemon meringue pie, all went well and as planned. My only complaint was that it wasn’t real lemon meringue pie, it was key lime pie with meringue and lemon instead of lime. Different recipe. It was still tasty, but it wasn’t the real thing.“

“very nice 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 🥐🍇🍕🧁🍫“

“Best cappuccino I’ve had since Italy! Great service and cozy atmosphere! I’ll be back!“

“good food nice associates“

“This is open and airy place with cool, white subway tile decor and lots of windows. You order your food and it’s delivered to your table.
I had the tuna and hard boiled egg on a croissant. It was delicious but a bit too heavy with the mayo and sour cream. Less mayonnaise and more red onion would have made it a better sandwich but it was so tasty.
My husband had the cooked eggs, bacon and cheese on sourdough toast. It was hot and delicious.
The coffee was also excellent and I had mine in a big, black glass coffee cup. There are no free refills but the person bringing out the food got me a free refill which was much appreciated.
This place is located by all the hotels and right around the corner from ours so it was very convenient.“

“Very good coffee drinks! Nice atmosphere too.“

“When it comes to coffee shops, I look for five things... good drip coffee, great music, good treats, good savory food options, and chill, kind people. There are very, very, very few that check all 5 boxes, but this is one of them.

The bagel sandwiches are bomb (shout out to the Humpty Hump), the coffee is always solid (it's La Colombe, iykyk), and the pastries/cakes are some of the best in the biz. I feel like I hear Sade whenever I'm in there, which is obviously great, and the people are the kindest. And the cherry on top is the cutest window seat--truly unmatched.“

“Great experience wonderful staff the kitties were a lot of fun!!“

“Chez Lily has some of the best coffee I've ever had. I stop by every morning, and it's always consistently great. The atmosphere is awesome—super welcoming and a great way to start the day.

The customer service is what really keeps me coming back. Everyone is so friendly, and you can tell they genuinely care. Big shoutout to Iyanna, Kai, and Diego! They're always kind, upbeat, and make every visit a great experience.

Highly recommend this spot if you're looking for amazing coffee and an even better vibe!“

“The bulguogi steak sandwich is simply divine! Marinated steak, cheese, & kimchi on deliciously toasted bread. So good! More sweet than spicy.

I've also had the Bahn mi it was also good (bulguogi is still the best).“

“OMG! My favorite place for juice, smoothies, avocado toast and acai bowls now has SOUP! Just had their potato squash soup, and it was better than my homemade soup (which is also delicious). Will be visiting often this winter for soup, cappuccino and "stay away cold and flu" juices. Sooo happy to have healthy options close-by!“

“Cool concept it’s like +6 kitchens in 1. They offer a lot of different promos on social media. From Alana pizza, I ordered the burrata and the bacon pesto pizza. The burrata was really fresh and I enjoyed the pesto pizza. From Di Fara pizza, I ordered the pepperoni, sausage and meatball pizza. Not sure if it was dough or the pizza was undercooked, but I wish there was more of a crisp to the crust. I found myself chewing longer than expected.

Location was really clean and ordering via the app was easy. There’s plenty of street parking around the shopping center. Prices are high for the area. I would definitely be back to try some of the other restaurants.“

“It's a really cute little place. Their signature latte is delicious, and a pastry I tried was also really good. Definitely will be back :)

UPD: and when I've forgotten a bag there, they figured that this review was by me and reached out. Truly the best!!!“

“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!“

“We visited milk and honey at the wharf first and it was amazing. The food, the decor, the music, the vibe - everything exceeded our expectations. Then we visited this milk and honey on H street on our way back to New York because it is close to
The train station. The food is amazing, service was excellent. The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars for the food is because I wish they had more toppings for my chicken sandwich and I did like my latte over at the wharf location better but the food was really good nonetheless!! Thank you guys for great service“

“Staff and baker were both so kind and welcoming to all who walked in. Some regulars they clearly acknowledged. It didn’t matter what one purchased. And calmly efficient to get everyone in/out. Patrons were also so wonderful, clearly a neighborhood gem. DC is still a city of people trying to hurry along, so I am not expecting lingering and community chit chats. Also around it are few hotels. Now the baked goods, one of the best chocolate croissant, orange scone and the banana chocolate loaf (I slathered it with some peanut butter for protein and that made it even more elevated). The egg sandwich with fresh focaccia a mist try on the spot. I would totally nominate them for an award. No fancy baked goods but that is why it is such a gem.“

“Besides delicious pastries, the best part of Boulangerie Christophe is the staff! Super friendly and kind to everyone who walks through the door. The gourmet sandwiches are a huge hit for my 15-year-old son too.“
