Great local coffee spot! Friendly staff, quality coffee you come to expect in the area, and a fun modern vibe. Nice place to get some work done or just enjoy your morning or afternoon caffeine fix. Love that it's easy to walk around the area with your coffee too!

Campfire Latte

Came here to grab coffee with some colleagues and the campfire iced latte I got was pretty great. Lots of space inside if you want to get some work done and plenty of parking outside. Cool spot.

FOOD/DRINK: 4/5 SERVICE: 5/5 EXPERIENCE: 4/5 I came here after a doctor's appointment to try to wait out the rain and get caffeinated after hearing so much about this place. The barista helped us out with any questions and was very kind. It was super cozy. The seating was extremely comfortable and I can see myself being here for a while. There was some cute merch too. The place was decorated with colorful posters of the outdoors, which followed the decor of what was in the rock climbing gym upstairs. Speaking of upstairs, you have to use the rock climbing gym's bathroom and the elevator was out of order. It wasn't a short jaunt either to go up the stairs (lol) so this was a bit inconvenient, which made us have to leave earlier than we wanted to. My husband is disabled and it would be difficult for him to use the bathroom upstairs without the elevator working - and there was no ETA on when it'd get fixed. This is an ADA violation to not have an accessible bathroom. FOOD/DRINK: They do have snacks and food to purchase but I did not get some this time around. I got the house special of an iced spiced demerara latte with oatmilk (rich, brown sugar, cinnamon syrup) - it was delightful and delicious. Just the right balance. Hubby got cherry lime espresso fizz (on the summer specials menu). He enjoyed it but I didn't particularly like it (too bitter imho). I couldn't see what brand coffee they used, which I like to know since there are certain brands that bother me. But this place didn't bother me. They do have non-dairy/alternative milk. I would come again if I were in the area but I wouldn't really seek it out. I've had better coffee but I've also had worse. Not sure if the hype lived up.

About a 1-1.5: I was recommended to check out Basecamp, as this place seems to be a local favorite for coffee. They're located below the Vertical Rock Climbing & Fitness Center, so it's super convenient for those who have an appointment to stop by before or afterwards. We stopped by for a caffeine fix, and ordered: +an Apple Square - it was stated that this would be heated, but it was served cold +a latte with oat milk - we requested this to be extra hot, and it was more lukewarm +the Spiced Demerara Latte - prepared with brown sugar and cinnamon syrup; this was requested to be extra hot, and it was more lukewarm; the coffee itself was strong, though Not sure if the barista was overwhelmed, but it took quite some time to get our latte - we went up a couple of times, and they stated that it should be coming out soon, but it didn't. The main issue was that there seemed to be a leak from the ceiling; they had the seating area sectioned off, but it reeked of mildew/old dishrag, which was pretty gross and unpleasant, especially if you're trying to enjoy a bite and a drink. Ample parking, but it can be slightly narrow to get in and out. No dice, Basecamp. +lukewarm coffee +cold pastries +unpleasant odors

Seating

Very spacious shop with ample seating. Various specialties available and coffee beans for purchase as well. The decor and atmosphere are the highlights of the shop. You can sense that thought and care were put into the theming/decor. I could see myself coming for a work day or sitting for a coffee with friends. Service was prompt, although the shop was empty for the majority of our stay. One star deducted because the service could have been more welcoming, but overall a good experience.

Iced Spiced Demerara Latte, Cinnamon Coffee Muffin
Carly W.

Absolutely amazing. I ordered the spiced Demerara latte which was soo good. Great balanced drink between syrup and espresso. I usually like my coffee on the sweeter side but I really didn't need to add anything extra, probably because the espresso is also so smooth and delicious. Also got the cinnamon coffee muffin which was really good and dense. The girl who took my order was extremely sweet and just had great vibes and just offered super great service. Wish I got her name to shoot her out! WILL be coming back. This place was also very quiet when I came in and seems like a pretty good space to get work done and also they had lots of seating inside.

The barista is quite the artist! Super cute. Tasted good too.

I've been here a few times now and love all the lattes they offer. I tried there Valentine's white mocha one on this visit and really enjoyed it. A lot of students here are studying so you might not find seating if you and friend want to just sit and chat. I would have given it a 5 but it lacks seating for those not studying. Not sure they require a purchase every two hours, but they should.

Thank you Basecamp! I needed a good coffee to start my day and you delivered! Great service at the counter, lots of room inside to work, and the coffee was fantastic! It was smooth and flavorful! Great service, great coffee!!!

Medium iced Chai Latte
Jo L.

DRINKS I ordered an iced chai latte, and it was great. It was well-spiced and refreshing, especially considering the affordable price and the cozy atmosphere of the shop. SERVICE The staff are kind and friendly! They are very efficient in getting orders out. AMBIANCE There is spacious seating inside the store, from booths to tabletop seating. There are plenty of outlets on the walls and extension cords on the floor to charge devices for work/study. Complimentary wi-fi is available, with the password listed at the front counter. Bathrooms are available upstairs. The only downside to my visit was the humidity in the store. The air was very thick and made it uncomfortable. PARKING Ample parking is available in the lot behind the plaza.

Cool coffee shop, the vibe is amazing. Definitely a spot you can go to and get some work done without feeling rushed. Coffee was solid, smooth and well made. The whole setup just feels different in a good way. If you're into rock climbing, Vertical Rock is right beside it which makes it even better. You've got people coming in and out, working, climbing, just a good mix of energy all around. I'll definitely be back.

What a well kept secret!! Such creative drinks and a great selection of seasonal fun options. Super delicious and made quickly. There's plenty of seating which is great for meeting a friend here or saw plenty of people studying/working. The employees are so kind too!! Loved the friendliness that is so rare these days :) whole place is super clean and I loved that they decorate for holidays

I dunno if it's the cold weather, or I'm just getting lazy but I've been going out for coffee more often...which is rare since 99% of the time I make and consume it at home or office. But it is a nice treat to pop into different coffee shops around town to sample their brews. I was in the Tysons area and needed a caffeine hit. I've had Basecamp Coffee Roasters bookmarked for a while, and was encouraged that many of my Yelp friends rate it highly. It's a bit hidden and the best way to describe the location is "behind" the Chik-Fil-A. There is also parking near the entrance, so just drive down the side of the building, instead of parking in the main front part of the mall like I did since it'll save you a few steps. The interior is a mix of modern with outdoorsy chic. Poured concrete floors are juxtaposed against hardwood furniture and posters of America's national parks. I like that unlike some coffee shops, this place is brightly lit with natural illumination from the big windows and overhead track lighting. The wi-fi is also speedy and didn't lag during my visit. Since I was staying for a bit and also needed to get some work done, I ordered a "plain" drip coffee. I agree with some of the other reviews that the main criticism is that the prices are on the high side. A 16 oz drip coffee was almost $5. Was the coffee good? Yes...in fact, quite good for regular drip. The beverage was smooth, with a deep full bodied richness, and wasn't diluted when a small amount of 1/2+1/2 was added. But would I stop in on a regular basis for this coffee? Probably not. I spent a productive hour here and some people I met up with, also commented that the coffee was nice and strong. Restrooms are located up a staircase, and shared with the indoor rock climbing gym on the upper level. All in all, despite it's higher prices, Basecamp Roaster is one of the better coffee shops and worth a try if you're in the area.

I could not believe what happened here! Not a place for Black People!!!! Just had the worst experience with a company called Basecamp Coffee Roasters. Yesterday I went to the Tyson's location and was disrespected by the manager, who refused to help me because I had my phone to my ear. He ignored me when I asked to pay for an item and asked "are you done with your phone call". After I gave him feedback he responded with a typical response that he was right and I was wrong. The next day I went back to get the same item and the girl at the counter refused to ring me up and picked up the phone to call someone and he came out to tell me that he wasn't ringing me up because I was rude to him. He then said he called my manager and admitted to defaming my character because i was honest with him about his unprofessional approach. One of the most racist experiences that I have encountered in this area, was a small business around the corner from my store. As African Americans we are constantly told that our responses or challenges are rude and it's clearly because of the color of our skin. I will make this very clear to all of you in this thread, never let companies or people defame your character. They will see that everyone doesn't just turn the other cheek. I will respond but it will the courts that send the message. I have relationships with several of the locations in Tysons. I do a lot of business with them, to include the business in this plaza. I am still in shock with what happened at this location. It felt like something out of the 60's

I ordered a pistachio latte at this Tysons location and it was mostly milk and ice. When I asked who appeared to be the male manager there if they could remake it, since the one they gave me was mostly ice and milk, he gave me a dirty look. Not very friendly service here. They're very busy, which is why I don't recommend if you're in a rush or want a latte that isn't made rushed. It doesn't give off specialty craft latte, because the quality and time spent on making the latte isn't there. They use too much milk. Or maybe they're just really inconsistent. Either way, it would have been better if the manager had tried to make things right rather than act annoyed. I really don't understand the hype and all the rave reviews, given the poor quality of the latte I received and bad service, this made me not want to come back. Disappointing coffee.

During the event, your waiter informed us that the host had prepaid $2,000 toward the venue, food, and drinks. At one point, I specifically asked the waiter about separating the accounts because I wanted to make sure I could pay for my own drinks. The waiter told me that there was no need because the host had prepaid $2,000 and, at that time, the guests had only used approximately $800 of that amount. Later in the evening, after many guests had already left, the same waiter approached me and stated that my bill was $750. When I asked how my personal bill could possibly be $750, I was told that it was the bill for the entire table. I never agreed to be financially responsible for the entire table, nor was I informed that charges from other guests would be assigned to me. In fact, I had specifically asked earlier to have my own purchases separated. - Every item included in the $750 charge presented to me. - The reason those charges were assigned to my account rather than to the individuals who ordered them. - Any gratuity, service fees, taxes, or other charges included in that amount. I would appreciate management reviewing this matter carefully. I am willing to pay for anything that I personally ordered and authorized, but I do not accept responsibility for charges incurred by other guests without my knowledge or consent. Please contact me promptly with the itemized documentation and an explanation of how the $750 amount was calculated. If I was improperly charged, I expect the charge to be corrected or refunded accordingly. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to resolving it professionally and promptly.

We ordered several dishes to share, including the Chawanmushi, Seafood Sunomono Salad, Miso Salmon, Sashimi Combo, Super Dragon Roll, and Rainbow Roll. Everything was beautifully prepared, but the Sashimi Combo and Super Dragon Roll were the highlights of our meal! Chawanmushi: This traditional Japanese steamed egg custard featured crab meat and enoki mushrooms. I especially loved its delicate, silky-smooth texture. Seafood Sunomono Salad: Unlike the typical Sunomono salads I've had elsewhere, Cafe Ile's version featured an assortment of seafood, including salmon, tuna, crab, and octopus. It was a nice twist on a classic Japanese dish! Miso Salmon: Miso-marinated salmon served over a bed of cauliflower purée. A lovely combination of flavors! Sashimi Combo: One of my absolute favorites of the evening! The chef's assortment featured an impressive selection of seafood, including monkfish liver, herring, various types and grades of tuna, salmon, scallops, and more. Everything tasted incredibly fresh, and I especially appreciated the flavorful takikomi gohan served alongside the sashimi. Super Dragon Roll: Another standout! This roll featured shrimp tempura topped with marinated, cooked eel and alternating red, yellow, and green masago. The combination of ingredients made this one of my favorite rolls of the evening. Rainbow Roll: A classic California roll topped with tuna, salmon, and avocado. A great choice for anyone who enjoys a variety of fish in one roll! Overall, we had a fantastic dining experience at Cafe Ile! I appreciated the variety of traditional Japanese dishes, the freshness of the seafood, and the thoughtful presentation of each dish. The Sashimi Combo alone makes me want to return! We're already looking forward to our next visit, especially to experience their omakase! At the time of our visit, omakase was offered Monday through Thursday at 5:30 PM and required advance reservations. Highly recommend Cafe Ile for anyone looking for quality Japanese cuisine and fresh sashimi in McLean!
