Imagine a small, cozy coffee shop with dim lighting and walls adorned with dark wood and old books. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee fills the air, and soft music plays in the background. There are comfortable couches and small tables where you can sit and relax. The atmosphere is calm and inviting, perfect for enjoying a good book or having a chat with friends.

I’ve had a lot of oat milk lattes in the DC area, and this one is definitely my favorite! (great place to write or get some work done, too!) this cafe is achingly rad (reminds me of some of the local spots I haunted in Boston back in the day), and the staff always have the warmest smiles on their faces. They showcase a bunch of local artists, have the best music, and I’ve overheard some of the most interesting conversations, which I think all just goes to show how creative and expressive this place is. I visited last summer and loved the iced latte I got, and this time I tried their spinach quiche - it wasn’t anything to write home about, but after glancing through some reviews, it does seem that perhaps it used to be a bit higher quality (and lower price?) so I’d perhaps stick to the pastries or hand pies next time!

When I lived in Alexandria from 2013-2017 this place was fire the quiches and pies were AMAZING. Ever since I left i made a point to come back here every trip to DC and get a Spinach Quiche and my favorite latte. They always deliver! Now it’s 2025 and the same quiche has significantly dwindled in size and quality, quadrupled in price….and the taste is no where near what I remember. The quiche used to be soft and fluffy. About 3-4 inches thick. Oh and they are cashless now WTF? I’m disappointed…I always stopped here every trip to DC and now I’m grieving my favorite spot.
