13 Best Coffee Shops in Herndon

“Being Hungarian myself, I have to say that the owner was very polite and sweet and treated us very well, the food was excellent and she was even kind enough to warm up our chimney cake for us. Thank you so much.“

“Great spot with great coffee highly recommend“

“Visited the newly opened Tapioca Express in Herndon today. Enjoyed their boba and was surprised they had so many snack options!! Favorites were the shrimp tempura with sweet chili sauce and the fried string beans. They didn’t seem very fried which is good in my book. Nicely seasoned too. Their crispy chicken was also good we were able to choose the spice level and I went with medium which was perfect. The chichi fries were great… love the chichi sauce that comes with it! As for drinks I loved the Mangonada. It was so beautiful and delicious for how hot and humid it was outside. Also enjoyed the honeydew snow bubble and combination yogurt frost which tasted similar to a Greek yogurt parfait with fruit. The staff was very friendly, the space is cute but small more of a to-go and enjoy outside type of place. They do however have a high top table if you’re able to snag it! Definitely coming back to try more of their menu soon!“

“Thanks Mary & team for the lovely toasted sandwiches, cakes, drinks & service. We enjoyed the birthday lunch today. Such a cosy Cafe, beautifully decorated & friendly staff. We will return 🥪☕️🌯🍵🍰🥤🎂“

“Definitely a unique atmosphere. Not a fan of coffee of coffee shops that's got way too many overwhelming options that could potentially want you to just give up on your order. Hey, at least here you can order standard espresso-based drinks. Busy little spot, especially since it was a sunny afternoon. They have seating areas both inside and out. You can lounge for a while and get lost on your electronic gadgets while sipping your favorite brew.

Got a cortado. The milk was a bit too hot. Was hoping for a cup to sit and stay (different taste when drinking out of plastic lined paper cup and just that feeling of 'take it and go/don't sit here').

Danish and other Pastry was good, but honestly taste like any other Pastry that's made by the local wholesaler.... From Baguette Republic in Sterling??“

“A Fresh Start for a Renewed Café!

Today, I had the chance to visit a newly revamped café in town. The café has been taken over by a new owner and officially reopened today with an entirely fresh concept. Don’t be misled by old reviews—this place is now completely different!

As soon as you step in, you’re greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere. The decor is bright, cozy, and thoughtfully designed. The menu offers amazing cakes, all freshly made and absolutely delicious. But the highlight for me was their **original Ethiopian coffee**. The aroma and taste are simply extraordinary, offering a truly unique coffee experience.

This newly opened café is worlds apart from its former self, with attention to detail and excellent service. It’s bound to become one of your favorite spots in no time. Be sure to stop by and experience this wonderful new transformation!“

“How do I get a free birthday drink?“

“The best chai latte! Great morning to sit out and enjoy!“

“Wasn’t sure what to expect and it’s not your average donut store. Your donut is made to order and you can customize the donut anyway you want. So fresh and tasty. Definitely a great treat.“

“I love hot chocolate. I'm not a coffee or (real) tea person so pretty much the only hot beverage I'll order out is hot chocolate. This Starbucks, specifically, has the best hot chocolate of any other Starbucks I've been to, in and out of the area. I always thought "the barista follows the recipe, you get the same hot chocolate," nope! This place is my all-time favorite, over restaurants and other cafes too.The staff is also fantastic. They are delightful, very nice, and always greet you with a smile. Veeeery occasionally an order is messed up (during peak times), but they'll fix it right away without a second thought. As they get to know the regulars, they know roughly what they're coming in for and the drinks are made quicker, and it's corny sounding but definitely made with love .@chocosnoblikon“

“Siii definitibamente el cafe es riquisimo y en especial la compañia con quienes departi mi delicioso capuchino la atencion es buenisima y bolberia a hacerlo las beces que fuera rico cafe rico aroma delicioso bendiciones inmensas....“

“This is a great Starbucks. They have ample seating indoors and also some outdoor seating.

They have two individual bathrooms, that will need a passcode to get into from one of the employees.

Service was great. I ordered an Ice Coffee which tasted really good.“

“My daughter visiting from Europe, an excellent cook in this cuisine, got all the challenging, hard to find spices and ingredients to make an incredible feast for us last month from Nazrate. Since we had the Shiro and excellent Berbere spices from Nazrate, i decided to try my hand as well. Their Injera is also authentic and very good. My wife went there to pick up more injera and the lady was very helpful and kind. I think based on last night's results we will be eating a lot more Ethiopian! (and we will back in a day or two since i made so much we need more injera for the leftovers.) I am wondering if this is a lovely cycle where you make so much that you need to buy more injera, but then afterwards have injera left over, so you make more and thus have to buy more injera because what you have won't be enough and you can see the cycle forming, :)“
