I stopped in for a flat white and it was excellent. Smooth milk, clear espresso flavor, balanced sweetness. It was good enough that I bought a bag of beans to take home.
The shop is cozy and has plenty of options on the menu, but you can tell they focus on doing things correctly. Quality beans, well-dialed espresso, and staff who know their craft.
Easy choice to come back when I am in the area.

The owner’s behavior felt racist .
I had a really unpleasant experience here.
I’m a student, and I just stopped by to have a coffee and read for a bit. I ordered my drink and on my phone took a couple of photos while I was waiting, and out of nowhere, the owner came over and told me I couldn’t take pictures.
Her explanation didn’t make any sense — something about people “leaking” photos — even though there are plenty of pictures of this place on Google Reviews. I’ve never been to a café that bans photos.
What bothered me even more is that she only said this to me. I later saw another review from an Asian woman who had the same experience. As an Asian myself, I couldn’t help but wonder if that was the reason. The way she suddenly started saying how much she “likes Asians” felt defensive and made things even more uncomfortable.
The coffee wasn’t anything special, the interior felt old and a bit dirty, and the owner’s attitude was just strange and unwelcoming. I’m definitely not coming back. Being rude to customers and telling them they can’t take photos for no reason felt unnecessary and discriminatory.

Parking is extremely difficult — the lot is very small with only a handful of spaces. The person who took our order didn’t seem very knowledgeable and told us their mochas were just chocolate and milk with no espresso. We tried clarifying multiple times but eventually gave up and ordered something else.
Unfortunately, the flat whites we received were not good. Maybe their pour-overs or other menu items are better, but we won’t be back to find out.

This is an excellent find in Northern Virginia! The pastries and coffee were excellent. The staff were super nice and knowledgeable. The vibe and space were good for working, talking, and hanging out. My new favorite spot.

Ordered an iced mocha and asked how many espresso shots they typically put in it. I was told the mocha is just milk and chocolate. I clarified and asked if there was any espresso in the mocha at all. She said no and that I would have to pay extra to add espresso. I ordered a flat white instead. It’s in a 12oz cup (twice the size as a typical flat white) and tastes like steamed milk. Cannot taste the espresso at all. My brother ordered an iced caramel macchiato and got a shot of espresso instead. They were also out of drip coffee. Out of our group of 8 people, the only one happy with their order was the one who ordered an Americano.

Delicious coffee, I recommend the Geisha pour over.
They upgraded the interior seating area from just the upper room to a warehouse-inspired floor with beautiful rough-hewn decor and international coffee destinations. You can enjoy the smell of roasting coffee as you sit and converse with your friends.

I dropped in while having my car worked on in the area. It is a very cute and welcoming coffee shop! I was feeding my baby when they called my name. Instead of leaving my coffee at the bar for me to pick up, they were kind enough to drop it off at the table for me. Blueberry Muffin and Snickerdoodle Late are highly recommended if you’re looking for something sweet! Very pleased and wish I lived closer to this coffee shop!

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.

I went here with my friend and it was such delicious coffee! However, I had asked if they do latte art, and was told they could. I wasn’t sure if what I received was latte art or not…A bit of a let down, since I really love it and thought it was going to happen. I also ordered a cookie dough croissant as it looked delicious! But it was not something I particularly enjoyed, mainly because the croissant tasted dry and lacklustre. A very cute place though!

Good coffee. The place is off the beaten track but worth seeking out. It’s the only place of its kind within miles offering good coffee.
