The drinks were fantastic!! There was a limited tea selection, but also many interesting coffee options. Did not order any food. The barista was knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. There are a number of tables for two and one location that allows two or three two-tops to be be pushed together which would allow for a larger party. The bench needs to be more comfortable to sit back on. There are also some comfy chairs.

Just discovered this place, and I'm so glad I did! I was thrilled to see my favorite flavor, cardamom, so I got a cardamom latte. The latte was so creamy, and the flavor of the coffee is AMAZING. Much better quality than Starbucks, and better prices too. I'm going here for my coffee from now on.

I went in on a Monday evening and tried the tiramisu latte which was honestly not that great. It tasted like Milo and milk. I enjoyed the ambiance but was not impressed with my order which I sadly was unable to drink.

In a world of fast coffee and chain-shop sameness, 29th Parallel Coffee & Tea is a rare pour. Tucked into a quiet corner of Northern Virginia, this cozy little cafe isn’t just about caffeine — it’s about craft, culture, and connection. Here, every cup tells a story — from globally sourced beans to house-made chai and handcrafted lattes. It’s a place where slow sips meet deep flavors, and you’re always invited to linger a little longer. Whether you’re a purist or an adventurous sipper, their drinks don’t disappoint. Favorites include: Honey Rose Latte – Delicate, floral, and grounded in espresso. Vanilla Matcha Latte – Balanced, not too sweet, with earthy matcha notes. Rooh Afza Latte – A barista-recommended hit featuring a Pakistani rose syrup that’s as fragrant as it is refreshing. Pistachio Latte – Smooth, nutty, and just the right amount of indulgent. Blueberry Coffee Coke – Yes, it exists. And yes, it works. “Not too artificial or overpowering — just enough to complement the coffee.” “Rooh Afza was a revelation.” “The chai takes 45 minutes… because they make it from scratch. That says it all.” It’s not about flashy neon or hustle-and-go. This is the kind of place where first dates happen, deep work gets done, and baristas remember your name. The clean, minimal space and friendly staff make it feel welcoming — never snooty. “A bit more laid back than Starbucks… with excellent employees.” “Perfect for a lowkey date or solo coffee escape.” “Parking’s a bit tricky — but worth it.” For Coffee Lovers, By Coffee Lovers 29th Parallel is for the real ones. They serve rare beans from the world’s best roasters, often featuring limited batches that are roasted to highlight origin-specific flavors. “Absolutely my favorite coffee place in Northern VA.” “They only serve the best of the best beans.” “This place is small but made for coffee people.” After you’ve fueled up with a perfectly balanced latte and maybe a flaky pastry, why not take your chill a step further with PullUpDC? Whether you’re unwinding solo or vibing with friends, PullUpDC’s premium cannabis products pair effortlessly with a slow afternoon and good conversation. 29th Parallel Coffee & Tea isn’t just a coffee shop — it’s an experience made with intention, patience, and care. From the latte art to the bean sourcing, everything here is thoughtfully brewed, one cup at a time. Come for the coffee. Stay for the energy. Pull up for the vibe.

This place is a hidden gem ! Absolutely incredible coffees and customer service. Family owned and operated. If you’re into coffee it’s an absolute must visit !

They make a proper cappuccino, nice espresso roast, and they make it quickly. It's a quiet gem and a scaled back version of the Vienna location. A great place to quietly work, though seating is limited. Ramadan hours are affected, but they're back to being 8-6 throughout the year.

It's so hard to find a good pour over, especially on weekends. Even though it takes a few minutes, it was worth the wait. I love the fact that they set the bags out so you can look at the coffee specs and flavor profiles and roast dates before picking your beans. I wish I lived closer!
