I just love this spot for a quiet place to work or read, or a nice spot to meet a friend for coffee or a casual lunch.Last week I had the Chicken Tortilla Soup twice and it is delicious. I even brought a quart home! I also had the prosciutto, goat cheese and apple sandwich on a baguette which was perfect.I have had lattes there often and always delicious.This week I brought home the chicken enchiladas from the market and the beef bolgogi - each meal generously fed two of us and was so delicious.The staff is always helpful, kind and attentive.Dietary restrictions: Lots of vegetarian salads, fruit and more for breakfast options.Parking: If there in the morning, always easy to find parking in front on South WashingtonStreet (going against traffic). Parking requires using the Park Mobile App.Kid-friendliness: Always a slew of strollers at Mae's!

The absolute BEST place for lunch/snacks/overall life in Alexandria! This is the place old town has been missing. Delicious coffee, yummy sandwiches, salads are always great and in season. They even have to-go options if you are too lazy to cook dinner like me (the Korean bulgogi beef and enchiladas are great). Scones are seasonal and out of this world, sometimes I get some and freeze them. I still dream about the pumpkin scone at night that’s available only in fall. Don’t get me started about the daily quiche- pretty much got me through my pregnancy. And the tortilla soup is incredible! I tell my husband it’s like crack. Also randomly the energy balls are great- get like 5 and keep them in your fridge all week. Pretty much everything they offer is knock your socks off delicious. The owner is a sweetheart too! Basically plan to spend everyday here for the rest of your life. Enjoy!

Only stopped in for coffee and the look and service was great. The Almond Croissant was amazing. Plan on going back soon to try more food.

Refrigerated food Was good but they stop serving off their menu at 4PM despite the place being open till 7 & this disclaimer not being posted anywhere. Bizarre practice
Food was great but the lattes were incredible! We are from out of town and kept coming back for them.

Bright and airy cafe with a wide array of foods, a counter with a few pastries and coffee options, and a bar with alcoholic optionsI came here around breakfast time with my GF. We each got iced vanilla latte's, she got an almond croissant, and I got a chia seed puddingThe coffees were great, and the food was solid. The table we sat at was a little unstable/wobbly

Perfect place for conversation and coffee. It has a cozy vibe and beautiful aesthetic, making it a good place to work or relax . I recommend it for meeting up with people for a casual experience. The service is fast and friendly, and the beverages are decent. The only thing I would recommend for improvement is more gluten free options. I have visited multiple times and enjoyed the space, but I'm usually hungry, because of the lack of gf food options for me.
