Origin Coffee Lab & Kitchen

To be honest, they have a great coffee, and the bakery is great as well. However, I had the crab and egg tacos, and the crab tasted bad.

I ordered the crab Benedict. It took a bit to come out, presentation is nice but it was lukewarm. Order by tablet, and pick a number. Depending, your number gets called and you go to the counter to pick it up, or you sit and they bring your food.

Best barista, very good service, excellent blueberry pancakes. Do read the menu well as some of the dishes are not what you might expect for ingredients

My family and I discovered this cafe while taking a walk, and while we enjoyed both the coffee and the coffee dessert we ordered, our overall experience became less pleasant shortly after I asked the cashier for directions to the bathroom. Unfortunately, I had difficulty understanding her response, as English is not my first language, and when I asked for clarification, her tone seemed unkind.

While I was in the bathroom, our food was brought to the table and one of the coffees was served in a "normal cup". My mother, in turn, asked if it would be possible to transfer the coffee to a different to-go cup because we had to leave at last minute and the staff member's response appeared to be quite irritated.

Upon arrival, we were informed that orders could be placed through an iPad, which I think is such a good idead. However, I immediately noticed the limited options available for ordering food to eat on-site and also ask something to go, also there were no options for paying with cash. Given the attitude and demeanor of the cashier, we chose not to inquire further about paying with cash or ordering a single coffee to-go at that moment.

While I acknowledge that the service was quick and that we enjoyed the food, I believe that a visit to any establishment should be enjoyable not only because of the quality of the food but also because of the atmosphere created by friendly and accommodating staff. Regrettably, our experience was not as pleasant as we had hoped, despite always being kind in our interactions.

I love this place! The Spanish Latte with oat milk is my favorite. Their food is great and the staff is very friendly. I’ve been coming here for the past three years and I’ve always gotten great service, food and coffee.

Music can be a little loud but is a very nice relaxed cafe. Coffee is reasonably priced but gets expensive with modifications.

TRY THE PANCAKE ITS SO GOOD AND FLUFFY.

Food here has no business being this delicious but it is. Coffee is good. Staff is friendly. It sometimes gets busy on Saturday and Sunday morning, and it takes a while to get your stuff. But during the week, everything is great!

They roast their Ethiopian coffee beans. The coffee was so delicious that I had never tasted anything like it in Virginia. They are indeed professionals.

We were new to this place, and even though they were very busy they answered all our questions and helped with the kiosk ordering process. In addition, the food and coffee were excellent. Really wished we lived nearby!

Parking: There is paid parking in the Pentagon City Mall, then it's just a short walk.

Very good coffee and food. Fairly priced coffee for the area. Food is expensive but I enjoyed my salmon benedict. High quality beans. Lots of seating but it can get busy. Nice atmosphere and good service.

Any time I’m in the DMV, I always make sure to make a pit stop here. They have amazing coffee. It’s such a cute spot. My favorite is their Spanish Latte. They also have yummy deserts. Highly recommend their coffee milk cake.

The Spanish latte and almond croissant were so delicious! I was delighted to be served really hot coffee, with beautiful art, in a big ceramic mug (several other cafes have stopped doing that despite dining inside). Great ambience too!
