“All in all, a pretty cool place and unique in downtown Vienna. I want to come back and visit when it's a little less crowded.My daughter and I came here on a Saturday morning to grab a quick cup of coffee before we took on the day. On walking in, I was immediately struck by how small the place is. The space really isn't all that big and there are only about 5-7 tables throughout, so during busy periods (like when we went) it would be really tough to get a seat.There was no line, so we went right up to the counter and placed our order. They don't do pour overs on the weekends, so I got a drip coffee and had it in my hand just a few seconds after ordering. After scanning the room, I realized that there were no tables available, so my daughter and I went outside and sat on a bench out there for a few minutes until the cold got to us. In total, I probably spent less than 3 minutes inside.That's too bad, because I really enjoy getting to enjoy the atmosphere of a coffee shop and having a little time to enjoy and experience the coffee. That said, it was my mistake for coming here at a busy time and honestly, there's only so much you can do about the size of a building.The drip coffee itself was okay, nothing to write home about – but that's drip coffee. I love that this place roasts their own beans and I would love to come back when they're doing pour overs and give it another shot.Overall, this place has some cool potential and I want to try it again and will update my review after the next round.“
“The ambiance of this coffee shop is soooo stellar and cute!! Service was great and fast, even with a line. I tried the horchata coffee which I wasn't the biggest fan of - I'm not exactly sure why to be honest. I will definitely return to try something else! Another wish I had - it is not great for a gluten free person - I would suggest that La Coop consider gluten free bread and/or pastry options!“
“Rare Bird does not miss with the quality of coffee at all. They have a stylish, well-maintained Strada and a great selection of coffees. Love the naturals every time. Some really great, thoughtfully designed, locally thrown drinkware. It's a serious gem.Parking: Street parking is a bit of a premium here. There's a local public lot just around the block. Perhaps not the best for accessibility, but there are options.“
“Great and extensive coffee selection and some great pastries to go with it! The staff is always friendly and helpful, they have a great vibe and a good amount of seating. We've tested out a bunch of their different roasts and are never disappointed. It's definitely one of the best coffee roasters in the DMV.“
“I’ve been checking out local coffee shops because I just wanted something besides my local Starbucks. Heard about this place from a friend. It’s like a hidden gem. I’ve come to this shopping center so many times and never knew it was here. Great, modern and clean space with lots of tables to work. And a delicious latte! New favorite spot.“
“If you have a Nespresso machine, either the original or the Virtuo model, this place is for you. They have a select set of flavors you can sample in the store. There's almost never a wait when I go there. And they have all the flavors available. You can also buy machines and other accessories. It links up with your rewards account in store as well as online“
“A great spot to get some work done, nice atmosphere, even in a busy weekend morning. Good seating options including an enclosed and heated outdoor patio. We had lattes, a cinnamon roll, and the avocado toast, all very good. I will absolutely be back!“
“My daughter in law has been enjoying your coffee for quite a few years. She was in the area 3/11 and 12(dates matter in this case) so she brought me a long. I love the vibe and cozy feeling!I ordered a cold brew. Best damn brew I'd tasted, in fact, I came back in on 3/18, 19, and 20 for more!I then went back on Monday of this week (3/25) before work and had a very different cold brew. No flavor, just bitter and tastes burned. I came in again and spoke with Tina who told me that sometimes when a new batch of cold brew is made by someone different, it changes. Here's my two cents - have the person who brewed the coffee early March continue making the batches - Delicious!!On a different note, Tina and two young guys who work for you are fabulous! Friendly, kind, attentive, and funny.“
“General review for Nespresso customer service: I purchased a Gran Mastria in January 2014. Since then, that machine brewed well over 13,000 coffees without any performance issues. A couple of months ago, I was out of town for an extended period, and the machine wouldn't release a used pod. My wife contacted customer service, and despite some troubleshooting, we couldn't get the machine to expel the pod. The customer service agent at Nespresso offered to replace our old machine, free of charge, for an upgraded model twice the price of what we purchased. The agent explained that they wanted to keep us around since we were loyal customers. The free replacement was completely unexpected; I was ready to purchase a new machine because I absolutely got my money's worth over nine years of use. Hats off to Nespresso for outstanding customer support--you've earned a lifelong customer!“
