The cappuccino and breakfast sandwich were great! And Lily is one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. Highly recommend!

A great local coffee shop but a bit expensive, specifically adding a flavor/milk alternative. Turned my $5.25 latte into almost $9

Quiet little Cafe near the Mt Vernon trail as it enteres into downtown Alexandria. Perfect stop for a ham n cheese croissant and Cafe mocha. There are breakfast sandwiches and deserts as well.

Due to the rave reviews, my husband and I stopped to check out this place before getting back to our state. I'm not a coffee drinker, but am learning about coffee and most, I do not like. It is true! Our café lattes are delicious and very smooth! This is one of only two coffee shops where I would return.

I stopped in to see the owner as I had checked the shop out recently and said I'd be back. Today I met her kind sons and enjoyed a large mocha with an extra espresso boost which was phenomenal and got blueberry cake, coffee cake, and a slice of carrot cake to enjoy. I enjoyed the quiet peaceful retreat atmosphere and did not hear music which I find non-essential. Excellent place to get away from it all should you enjoy. A safe haven.Parking: Street parking and a free parking garage in the next door alley way.Kid-friendliness: Nice quiet atmosphere with art and plenty of comfortable seating.Wheelchair accessibility: Easy access with leveled wheelchair accessible sidewalk and transitions.

The owner brews the smoothest cafe mocha I have EVER had in my life, and she is very nice no matter the day.
Excellent local coffee shop. Coffee was full bodied and very flavorful with friendly staff. Has indoor and some outdoor seating and was a great stopping point following my morning walk and having my mid morning shot of Joe! Definately a business to check out if you are a fan of good coffee!

Tucked away on Jefferson street, this is a cute spot with great coffee drinks (both Italian style and Ethiopian), a selection of freshly made pastries ‘imported’ daily from a bakery in Maryland, and a few cold drinks and refrigerator items. Great service, friendly clientele.

Nice coffee shop. Convenient to get to and the espresso I had was good. Vibe looks relaxing but it was really dull inside. They should add a bit of soft music or something. It doesn’t give “welcome in and sit vibes”.
