Fairfax Simply Social Coffee

Awesome spot! Got the matcha latte and breakfast sandwich. Matcha did not disappoint, and the breakfast sandwich was possibly the best I’ve had. The staff was welcoming and a joy to interact with, and service was fast. Definitely give them a try!! I will be returning :)

I just had the best cappuccino I’ve ever tasted — hands down. The espresso shot was perfectly pulled, rich and bold without being bitter. The milk was frothed to velvety perfection, creating that ideal balance of smooth and strong. Every sip had the right mix of creaminess and espresso kick. If you’re a coffee lover, this is the kind of cup that sets the bar high. Absolutely worth coming back for
And the outdoor sitting is just amazing.

Honey latte, crème brûlée iced latte, green smoothie and red velvet cookie. All so delicious, the green smoothie was actually good for being something healthy. The coffee is some of the best I’ve tried.

had a very disappointing experience at Simply Social Coffee today. I came in with my service dog, and the first thing the cashier told me was that dogs weren’t allowed inside and that I needed to go outside and order online. This was not only disrespectful but also potentially illegal in Virginia, as service dogs are legally allowed in public establishments.

I had to step outside, hand my dog to my husband, and then return to place my order. When ordering my latte, I asked for light ice, and instead of just noting my request, the cashier took five extra minutes to explain that my cup wouldn’t be filled to the top. While I understand portioning, the way she said it came off as unnecessarily rude and condescending.

As I waited for my order, I noticed a board covered in Polaroid pictures of dogs, making the place seem dog-friendly—which made the refusal to allow my working dog inside even more contradictory and misleading. If this café truly cares about dogs, they should at least allow service animals inside for a brief moment while someone orders, or at the very least, offer to take an order and bring the drink outside.

To top it off, my latte with “light ice” was indeed not filled to the top, which was just the final frustration in an already bad experience. The lack of respect, poor customer service, and confusing policies make it unlikely that I’ll return.
