50 Best Coffee Shops near Ft. Belvoir

“Great employees who are extremely motivated to serve great DD products! All they need is the new store’s restoration to be completed! Customers are waiting :)“

“This Starbucks is good, but I think the Starbucks at the Fort Belvoir Town Center is a bit better. The chicken waffle maple sandwich didn't taste great here. My drink was good, but not as good as the same drink that I got at the Town Center. The upside is that it was easy to order in the app, my drink and food were ready quickly, and the employees were nice.“

“the store looked nice and clean. I would really recommend, considering it’s one of the few Starbucks on base! the coffee was good and the barista, Nathan, was amazing! the best barista i have ever had. He was fast and knew what he was doing. Also he as very nice and had a very cute hat on with a hair net! very good!“

“Kind & helpful staff, delicious variety of drinks & pastries.“

“Love my pistachio Latte & baklava !!! The atmosphere is warm and cozy, highly recommend.“

“My husband and I found this little spot while out walking . We purchased coffee, bagels and decided to have a scone apiece. The owner and staff are so sweet and you can tell that they love what they do. It will be a regular spot for us to visit.“

“Love the Springfield location. It’s cozy and the crepes are to die for, so are the fresh cookies. You cannot go wrong with any choice off of the menu.“

“Café du Soleil offers a warm welcome and delicious basic French quiches, sandwiches, salads, pastries, and sweet/savory crepes in a relaxed atmosphere. The coffee is excellent and the wine selection offers something for every palate. Definitely worth a visit.“

“I recently visited ESP Tea & Coffee in Old Town Alexandria for the first time, and it was an awesome experience! From the moment I walked in, I was struck by the funky, cool vibe of the space—definitely a spot with personality. The staff was super friendly and welcoming, taking the time to help me choose the perfect drink. I ended up going with the “Sugar Daddy” latte, which was a deliciously sweet and satisfying choice. To go with it, I tried an oatmeal cream whoopie pie from Lil Miss Whoopie, and it was the perfect pairing—soft, creamy, and absolutely indulgent. Whether you’re a coffee or tea lover, ESP is a fantastic place to check out. The atmosphere is laid-back and inviting, making it a great spot to relax, catch up with friends, or get some work done. If you’re in Old Town and looking for a unique, friendly café experience, definitely stop by ESP Tea & Coffee!“

“Omg! The mocha latte I had was really really good and strong! I’ll be back for more! Also, thanks for the mug and bag!“

“Amazing coffee, pastries, sandwiches and breakfast croissants. We have coffee shops in Old Town that are closer to us but make the trip to Grounded because it's that good. When my husband and I were planning our wedding, only one place came to mind for dessert to wow our guests. We didn't want a traditional cake, we wanted something that would have everyone asking us where we got the desert. The items we selected were a hit and recommend for not only visiting but catering.

The coffee shop itself is comfy and cozy. It gets busy on the weekends so make sure to go early if you want to get a breakfast croissant.

Thank you Carla & Sebastian for putting your magic touch on our wedding. We appreciate you two and your business.“

“Great service Great coffee I highly recommend“

“Held my Monday meet up for my campaign for State Senate here this morning Such a beautiful venue adorned with sunflowers hanging from the ceiling! Their Nitro Cold Brew is great! Even the pup tried to take a sip ☺️ Visit www.Sophia4VA.com for our next coffee gathering!“

“By far the best coffee you will ever have. Great atmosphere at both locations. Wonderful fresh coffee beans to purchase. Pastries and baked good galore. Stop by. You'll be glad you did.“

“Very cute place, delicious teas and desserts, nice staff.“

“This is the place to get the best cup of espresso in the DMV.
If you want an average cup of Joe, then don't even try to find this place

Kid-friendliness: This is a relatively quiet cafe. I'd recommend you take your kids somewhere with a play place“

“My favorite coffee house in national landing! Great for getting your cup; great for getting a great and strong cup; and great people and leadership! Skylar has done so much to make this a success and I am so proud of them! The team is also fantastic! I’m so excited to see Brij grow and so glad to have been here from the start!“

“Best bubble tea around! Plus other great treats!“

“The beignets are made fresh to order. We ordered two orders ( 3 per order) of the powdered sugar beignets and they were ??. We tried the vanilla, strawberry, and raspberry sauces and they made the beignets even better. The vanilla puts you in the mind of a cinnamon roll frosting but better. Beware the powdered sugar beignets can get MESSY so don’t eat them in your car……

The staff were very friendly.

Only downside I there isn’t much seating.

We will definitely be back.“

“Milk and Honey is the best restaurant ever.. great waitress and staff. Great cook overall I give it a 100 out of 10“

“By far the best coffee you will ever have. Great atmosphere at both locations. Wonderful fresh coffee beans to purchase. Pastries and baked good galore. Stop by. You'll be glad you did.“

“great staff! delicious coffee!“

“We had a great time visiting all the cats. So many sweet faces!“

“I just received a box of Cameron’s Chocolates as a gift. They were delicious. They will be a new go to for me. Love supporting small business and Cameron Chocolate’s mission.“

“Great coffee and great service . St Elmo’s is my “go to” place for informal business meetings and strategy sessions“

“Great coffee, fresh and locally roasted in their store. Well worth driving past a few other coffee shops on the way to get there, pick up some beans for home.“

“Great place to visit. The tables and chairs are comfortable. I appreciate the open feeling with high ceilings and glass windows. The coffee is good. The service is wonderful. The tables and floors were not clean. They seemed short staffed. The employees are hard working and need a raise is needed.
Check out the cool gift like items to buy! Local businesses! Well done! This is easily the best coffee house in Old Town!“

“Not only is their esthetic so calming and perfect for a slow morning coffee and read of a book, but the coffee is so good! I’ve only just had either black hot and iced coffee, and both are so good. Beans aren’t burnt and the overall coffee flavor is the right amount of bitter and sweet. A cappuccino is next on my list, but you know a coffee place is doing it right if just their black coffee is great!

Bacon egg and cheese sandwich on an everything bagel is a classic! Just YUMM! Every worker I’ve encountered have been so kind! Even on their busy days, you don’t feel like they’re rushing you.“

“Tried for the first time and was blown away. So good.“

“The workers here are SO NICE! We’ve been swinging through here as a post-workout treat, working our way through the coffee menu. The staff explain each one and really help us land on the perfect cup. The coffee is great, the pastry is great, can not recommend this place enough.“

“A must go for doughnuts and breakfast eats. Fun and imaginative doughnut options and their expansive and nutritious menu has plenty to discover.Their coffee and drink options are superb.I’d suggest the Murphy special and their dirty chais are superb.For doughnuts, I’d got for a couple classics and a fun looking one that catches your eye (special points to mocha espresso, classic cake, and jam filled)

Dietary restrictions: Milk options available“

“Always a perfect cup and excellent, pleasant service.“

“We were in the area and saw this coffee spot and thought we’d stop by. Glad we did! We were the first ones in and had the place to ourselves (for a little bit anyway). Delicious food including the best everything bagel with cheese, egg, and bacon I’ve ever had! First time I’ve ever thought about going for seconds. My caramel latte was fantastic too. Service was so friendly and fast. Very clean and they have wifi. They have a menu with suggested prices, but no cash register— they work off donations, so you pay what you can. For those like me who are perpetually cash-challenged, they thankfully accept phone tap payments such as Apple Pay.“

“Used to really like this place but we were denied seating on the patio unless we had a dog. We have two young children and it is much easier to manage them outside and there was no one else out there. Thanks for the quick respons Sisters at Old Town North Alexandria you guys have been one of our favorite places and I hope we can visit again in the future.“

“I hosted my weekly "Coffee Klutch" meet here this morning on behalf of my campaign for State Senate and the ladies of Old Town had a fabulous time! The decor is so pretty and the sweets are delicious! Thank you so much for hosting us! Please visit my website to see where we will be each week! www.sophia4va.com“

“What an awesome, cozy spot, especially if you want to be away from a big crowd but still enjoy good food and drinks. We had a great conversation with the owner and workers. Everyone was friendly and had great customer service skills. Oh, the bourbon selection is awesome!“

“Picked up a nitro cold brew for the road after a stop at Costco. I also picked up a bag of Guatemalan coffee beans. I look forward to future visits to try some breakfast & lunch sandwiches, as they look great! Cool atmosphere and great friendly service.

Parking: Easy in, easy out“

“En particular uno de mis café favoritos … estar area es Exelente …. Recomendada para caminar Muy segura y limpia ….“

“Fun seasonal items and consistent with their product. Staff is nice. They messed up the order but immediately remade it with no issues. I would recommend that they sample their seasonal items as we would like to try but not purchase the whole thing.“

“After walking in/out and by a few different coffee spots, we knew were destined to come here. As soon as we walked in, the baristas greeted us.

We came on a Saturday in October, so drinks were 2 for $10. As soon as I placed the order on my app, the barista immediately started on the drinks. I ordered 2 White Chocolate Mochas, one with almond milk/no foam/no whip. She took care in making sure my drink had zero foam, which I truly appreciate.

It wasn't insanely busy and there was enough seating available. I love that they have outlets on the bench, allowing customers to charge their phones.“

“I love this bakery! Since, the first visit everything I have ever ordered has been fresh, well prepared and delicious! I love the teas, coffees, sandwiches and of course the dessert!! I travel out to them every year to get a cake on my birthday. That is how amazing they are.“

“The food was amazing. The raw meat (Tere Sega) was incredible, just looking at it on our table. The red meat blended well with the marble and It was served with a wooden board with a variety of deep sauces to match your taste. Cutting the pieces and dipping it into the spicy sauces and dropping it in your mouth is the ultimate experience.

The other food that we ordered was KITFO. In fairness, the best KITFO we ever tasted. The seasoned butter and spices were just right to bring the taste on every bite. Next, we ordered Tibs, a crunchy roasted meat with caramelized onions, jalapeño and spiced well that was served on traditional heated clay.

Finally, to bring all the taste into effect , we ordered TEJ, a wine like drink made of honey.
I am salivating while I am writing this review. If you never been to Ethiopian restaurant and happen to be in Arlington area, Meda is the place to visit. The service is great and the staff is very friendly. We enjoyed it so much and we want others to experience the same. Thank you Meda and keep it up.“

“👏👏👏 One of the Best Coffee spots in Arlington.“

“I ordered one konafah as a dine in, it was served cold, super sugery and not tastey at all. The konafa layer was so thin and soaking in syrup. I am sorry to say that Jenine is not going to be my favorite stop anymore.“

“"I was born and raised in South Arlington, and I've seen several restaurants come and go in this plaza before Café Sazón. But let me tell you, the food and the people here are fantastic! It's authentic homemade food at its best. I’ll definitely be coming back. To all my fellow Arlingtonians, you need to check this place out—you won’t be disappointed!"“

“Amazing experience! Large portions.“

“Love this place! The staff is incredibly wonderful. Always so sweet and helpful. Always willing to answer questions, offer suggestions, and improvise when needed. Been multiple times and have always had a great experience. They also work their butts off keeping the orders cranking out. We have a gluten allergy and dairy allergy in our family so they are always helpful, knowledgeable and accommodating when we order. The space is adorable. You can feel the vibe that is a kind, loving, community space.“

“Friendly & amazing customer service, and delicious food and drinks. Thank you!“

“The food was amazing! The service was impeccable! I came for lunch with a FB mom group from Loudoun and it was worth the drive.“

“Good service and great staff. My daughter loved her tea.“
