Mae was absolutely amazing making sure I was well taken care of despite being short staffed - she handled everything with care, kindness and professionalism. I would recommend this place to someone simply because of her impeccable service and delicious coffee. read more

We tried this place for lunch near American University and it was simply fantastic. The sandwiches and salads were fresh, delicious and well prepared. Pretty good portions too for the price. The cappuccino was one of the best I've had too. We ordered and everything was out to us within 10 minutes. Our server was highly courteous and very professional. We live the open cafe atmosphere too. Very warm and inviting. We did pay $4.00 for off street ( one hour) parking but that is Washington D.C. Everything you do in that town comes at a price. Especially the 400 plus red light and speed cameras throughout the City. We will definitely revisit this restaurant when we are in NW D.C. AND DRIVE VERY CAUTIOUSLY! I'm praying we made it through the gauntlet! read more

Delicious food and coffee. Cafe is clean and ambiance is wonderful. Servers are very friendly (ours was Paul). We will return!

Ambiance: This place is simply cute and cozy, perfect for breakfast or lunch. Service: nothing spectacular to report, I felt like the staff could use some customer service training. Food: I ordered the chicken and avocado (not pictured) in simple words, the sandwich was tasty but there were a few things that would take it over the top: 1- the sandwich lacked a hearty serving of chicken. They were finely diced and scarce. 2- the avocado spread was tasty 3- the spinach was way too much and it overpowered the already scarce chicken. 4- the melted cheese soaked through the bread and made it really oily. While the sandwich was a tasty, I think that a few improvements can definitely help. Needless to say their pastries are delish so I'd likely return for just that. read more

My favorite bluestone lane in the city! The vibes are immaculate, so much natural light and perfect for either working from home or getting a bite with friends. The wait staff is extremely kind - a personal shoutout to Ara who is always very generous and personable. The food and coffee, while a bit overpriced, is also great, and I'm proud to be a regular here! read more

After a no-school camp at Amore Learning across the street, my eight-year-old daughter, her five-year-old friend, and I popped into Bluestone since they heard good things about it. Ordering small hot chocolates and warm banana bread, the girls loved visiting. The dining room is spacious, kid-friendly, and bright. Staff even gave each girl their own packet of crayons. read more

Great breakfast and such a nice atmosphere! Mae was lovely and provided great service. We really enjoyed our experience and would definitely come back! Very delicious food too! read more

I've been coming to this Bluestone Lane café location in Spring Valley for quite some time, and it has never disappointed me. The staff have treated me with kindness and respect, and I always feel welcome. I especially appreciate how they check in throughout my visit. The food is always delicious and satisfying, and the drinks are consistently refreshing, especially on a warm, spring day. The café itself is also very beautiful and photogenic! The large glass windows make the space feel so bright and energizing. One employee in particular, Mae, is always so sweet, attentive, and ready to help whenever I need assistance. Thank you to Mae and the entire team at Bluestone Lane Spring Valley Café! I'll be returning often. read more

I love Bluestone Lane! For the past three years, I've come maybe once a month/every few months for the exact same meal (soft chili scramble with avocado, wedge slices, and an Aussie latte), and the food has always been phenomenal. Whether you want to eat inside or outside, it's really beautiful and very peaceful. The service is always great, and servers will often come check on you to make sure you don't need anything else. I'm a huge huge fan!! read more

I ordered a special seasonal smoothie called the Bondi Blue Smoothie by REEF (described as a tropical smoothie inspired by the Aussie coast. In partnership with REEF, this smoothie is a blend of banana, mango puree, almond milk, blueberries, vegan cream, protein powder, and blue spirulina). It was SO good and refreshing! Incredibly fresh, unique flavors, not too sweet, and perfectly blended. I would order it a thousand times and still not feel I got enough. The staff were friendly and efficient, the interior has sooo much seating space, plus there is an endless outdoor patio that has really nice vibe. They were running low on pastries but you gotta get there early for those. Overall, great! read more

I've been to Bluestone a few times in different locations but this spot is definitely spacious. I arrived around 3 pm new pick up a mobile order and it was packed inside. Ordered their iced vanilla latte with a bogo deal so I ended up getting a second beverage for free. Coffee is strong but not over powering. I also really enjoy their avocado toast and some of their smoothies. They are however pretty pricey for what it's worth. read more

Perfect spot for breakfast or lunch. Bright, comfortable setting, everything on the menu looks mouthwatering. Large selection of different types of coffee. We tried waffles with whipped cream and berries , and the special - "BL Bekkie ": multigrain toast, smashed avocado, two poached eggs, mushrooms, cherry tomatoes , topped with several slices of perfectly crispy bacon. Will be back to try lunch options read more

Early morning breakfast at this cafe in Spring Valley. Nice selection of smoothies and hot and cold beverages and many All Day Brekkies, mostly savory, as is my preference. The coffee setup is cute with the cornflower blue cup and saucer, although hot coffee in a glass bottle can be a hit precarious when pouring. I enjoyed my Vegetarian Big Brekkie with halloumi, poached eggs, avocado, kale and vegs. My companion enjoyed their folded eggs with chimichurri sauce too. This area can get very crowded because there is a Compass Coffee and Starbucks located a few doors down. read more

Peaceful ambiance. Great egg, cheese and bacon croissant. Service was a little slow.

For breakfast or lunch, you can't beat the healthy variety of food and delicious coffee drinks at Bluestone Lane. I love the lemon ricotta pancakes! They're lovely without being too dense. Served with a side of syrup, they're my favorite breakfast. For lunch I love the chili scramble toast. The vibe of this place is immaculate, as long as there aren't kids screaming at the top of their lungs for extended periods of time like the last time I visited... The restaurant has tons of natural light through almost floor to ceiling windows. The servers are super efficient. I've dined with just my husband and with a group of 9 colleagues and the service has been great each time. They can divide checks and allow paying at the table, which I love. read more

Very respectful manager, I think his name was charles. He was very nice. Saw him talk to many tables to assure their service was great. My server was mae, she was very helpful with knowing things on the menu. Picked out a couple things because of her recommendation and I really liked it. If you're ever in town you should get the bacon egg croissant, was very delicious. Will definitely be coming back here again. Very nice lighting and scenery and lowkey. read more

Great spot for sitting outside on a nice day. Cute little cafe, fresh food and a few drinks. Lots of coffee/tea options too, although didn't feel very Australian lol. The breakfast burrito (with lentils!yum) came with a simple, fresh salad. The baked green eggs were great, served hot with lots of spinach, tomato, and mushrooms. I think it had chimichurri sauce as well, adding to the green but also tasted really good. Fast service. Super friendly. Good for vegetarian too. Prices were medium. Definitely recommend. read more

Bluestone Lane Spring Valley Café - Peppermint tea - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

20 minute wait for a latte to go when there was no one in the restaurant. Do not recommend if you have anywhere to be.

This place is hands down 5 stars. Every single individual that makes up the team there shows up with insane kindness. My coffee order is a large iced mocha oat milk and the best part is going to pick it up and chatting with the manager Sasha-- always brightens my day. They really make you feel apart of the community. On top of just being a stellar crew of humans, the food goodness and presentation is very well done. It's nice to have consistent quality and service like they have. I know that's a hard thing to achieve and it takes a lot of efforts unseen by me, someone that arrives for the experience, to stop and appreciate that effort. The location is just a gorgeous slice of big windows and light blue interior and I honestly could stay there all day. This is my honest review, have been going here almost weekly for close to a year now. Hope others see this post and get to pop in and see for themselves. read more

Bluestone Lane Spring Valley Café - Hot brew with my husband, some almond croissants and an iced mocha latte with oat milk and BL Burrito on the way! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Cheerfully sleek and inviting Aussie cafe with excellent coffee and menu offerings. The "Brekkie All Day" section of the menu was enough to get my attention. It offers a range of items from avocado toast to a more substantial burger or big brekkie entree. I opted for the athlete's burrito, which was very tasty. I found the smoothies to be a little high on the ice content to warrant the price tag, but the food was excellent. Bluestone Lane also has a very decent children's menu. The Australian fairy bread was an especially big hit with the under 5 crowd. The children's grilled cheese was also a good portion, with seasoned wedge fries. Service was quick and friendly. The cafe has a handful of outdoor tables, plus spacious indoor seating with high ceilings. The noise level was pretty minimal during our visit and there is good spacing between tables. We look forward to our next visit! read more

Went to Bluestone Lane with a few friends for brunch over the weekend. I was really pleased with the ambiance and natural lighting-- tons of big windows and lots of space for seating and moving around. The coffee menu was extensive and had a variety try of teas, espresso options, both hot and iced. Each coffee is served in an adorable blue cup with beautiful latte art on the top. The brunch menu had a variety of options that included a lot of eggs, avocado and unique bowls with grains and proteins. I ordered the lemon ricotta pancakes which were served with lemon curd, fresh berries and edible flowers. The maple syrup on the side was perfect because I could add the amount of sweetness that I wanted without it being too overpowering. I would have preferred less ricotta on the pancakes and a little more lemon curd -- the ratio was about 1:1 cakes to ricotta topping, which was a bit much. The service was touch and go, but overall very friendly. While our order was taken quickly, our empty plates were never cleared until we left the restaurant, and we had to flag down a server for more water and to pay our bill. I'm not sure if they were short staffed, but I also noticed that the bathrooms needed some cleaning/tending to. read more

I cannot say enough about the wonderful staff at Bluestone Lane! We asked if they could host a private event and they delivered. Amazing service, food, and great people. They were a pleasure to work with and plan the private event with. They went above and beyond in all aspects. I highly recommend the breakfast burrito too. They felt like family by the end of the journey! Will certainly be going back and even would love to host another event there. Special shout-out to manager Charles! read more

Excellent food and service. Had avocado toast and pancakes with a flat white. High quality Australian fare. Impeccable service from a waiter named Ara. read more

The location is lovely, but everything else fell flat. My son's eggs came out cold, and it took about ten minutes to even catch a server's attention. My salad was drenched in dressing, making it almost inedible. Our table was under a vent, and we froze the entire meal. We were never even offered refills on our water. read more

I enjoyed my experience at Bluestone Lane. Perfect calming ambience for mornings, I had a delectable tea. Lots of table inside with great views of the busy street. The staff was friendly and not rushing us throughout our meal. I ordered the B.L.A.T.E. and it was an interesting take on a breakfast sandwich. Fresh ingredients and a good combo of ingredients. Definitely a place to stop in and check out for brekkie read more

Delicious. Absolutely fresh. Worth a visit and it's expensive. When I have money to afford this double priced breakfast

First visit to this latest addition to the growing Spring Valley dining conclave, and I really dug it. They've done a nice job with the space, including the outdoor patio, just around the corner from Mass Av, so relatively quiet. The coffee was good, but the breakfast options are a major upgrade to area offerings. Will be a regular! read more

This place really took me by surprise. From the moment I walked in I was greeted like a friend. The service was on point, friendly, and with a smile. Additionally, the plate I ordered was so damn delicious! I had the Warm Chicken and Ancient Grains Bowl (recommended by Charles). Just saying, it was soooo good :) The ambiance works well too. it provided me a retreat from the business of the day and I just felt really relaxed there. If you haven't been, you must give it a try. read more

I purchased a bag of coffee beans, as I really enjoy their coffee, but I should've known something was off when the lady at the counter stated that the grind for drip coffee is finer than the one for espresso. Long story short, I received a grind that was not the correct one to use with my espresso machine, barely getting anything out of it. After multiple emails over the course of a few weeks trying to locate the transaction, they offered to stop by for an exchange, but at that point I had used a good portion of it and it was just not worth the trouble of going in and explain what happened. I would suggest buying the beans and grind it yourself. read more

We enjoyed an exceptionally pleasant lunch at Bluestone Lane Spring Valley, not only due to the fresh ingredients and bright ambiance of large windows, but also because of the great service. One of us is severely lactose intolerant and, when we noticed some lactose-full additions to our order, the manager, Priscilla, quickly and cheerfully arranged for the dish to be safely redone. Delicious! And the personal care was so much appreciated! read more
