This cute little coffee shop tucked inside the back of The Old Fox Books and Coffee House is such a charming find! They serve up pretty good coffee along with a nice selection of treats, including vegan and gluten-free pastries. We tried the vegan muffin, and it was surprisingly delicious--super moist, flavorful, and definitely one of the better vegan muffins we've had. The cappuccino with almond milk was also very well balanced, with just the right amount of bold coffee flavor complemented by the steamed milk and foam. A cozy little spot to enjoy a good coffee and a tasty treat, especially if you're looking for vegan or gluten-free options! They are also dog friendly read more

Stopped by Brown Mustache Coffee while walking around Annapolis. It's a small, quaint coffee shop tucked inside a bookstore, which gives it a pretty relaxing vibe. There were a few students working on laptops and reading, so it felt like a good spot to hang out for a bit. I was a little disappointed they didn't have cold brew, which is usually my go-to. The service was quick and the barista recommended an americano since they didn't have a cold brew. But wanted to just try something new. Ended up getting the lavender latte instead, and it was actually really good. read more

Brown Mustache Coffee is SUCH a charming little find; part cozy bookstore, part coffee shop. The vibe is warm and inviting, perfect for slowing down with a drink and browsing through books. What really stood out to me is how thoughtfully they've made it family-friendly. There's a small kids' area inside with tiny chairs and books, which is such a nice touch if you're coming with little ones. Outside, there's a patio space with the cutest little tree fairy house for kids to play in, which honestly makes the whole place feel a bit magical. Definitely a spot I'd come back to, whether it's for a quiet coffee break or a casual outing with my kid. Thanks for having a beautiful place for the community to come together!! read more

What great little coffee shop in the back of Old Fox Bookstore. A nice little patio to enjoyed your coffee or tea to go with some nice seating inside including a couple of leather chairs in front of a fire place. There was always a short line so you know it is a good spot. So stop in and enjoy your coffee and a good book. read more

Be prepared to stand in line if you are ordering coffee. The place is small...quaint would do. Despite its small & cramped size it is very cozy. You can ready a book, buy a book, relax or just chat it up with a new friend you meet there or the friends you bring along. Yes it's not just coffee it's a bookstore with a real live mascot in Ferguson the friendly Bernice Mountain dog. Check out the drink specials it will be worth your while to order one because can't get them year around. The pasties or good as well, just ask them to heat them up because they are cold! My only complaint is they didn't heat up our pastries and by time I sat down I don't want to get back in the long line to ask them to heat them up. Of course I could just skip the line but did I mention it's small and cramped to navigate. There is a downstairs so be sure to check it out. My tips is to order what you want, say hi to Ferguson and stay a while. read more

This is a coffee shop located inside of Old Fox Bookstore! There is actually more seating than I expected. I popped inside during a thunderstorm to grab of nice cup of hot tea (earl grey) which was lovely and at least not just with a standard tea bag! The girl managing the coffee shop was polite and super fast with my order. I would come back to try out some of their more complex drinks like their lattes that were really popular when I came by! read more

This is a quirky and unique coffee shop. There are a lot of books everywhere and it feels very homey. I got a seasonal latte from here and it was sweet and delicious. I don't think this cafe is the best environment to get work or studying done, but it's a good spot to read a book or catch up with a friend. read more

I had heard about this coffee shop, nestled inside a bookstore in DT Annapolis, so I knew I had to check them out (besides the fact that their name is super cute!). The menu offers locally-roasted coffee, grass-fed milk from local creameries, teas, and GF items from Bakery Girl Bakedgoods. I had the hot caramel latte, requesting this to be extra hot, with oat milk - unfortunately, this was super watered down and wasn't strong enough for me; wasn't able to get my caffeine fix here. Service was just okay, just not sure why it's so hard to be dressed in a smile. +watered down lattes +not-so-friendly staff read more

I visited this shop on vacation and it was amazing! It has both the new book smell (if you know you know!) and the coffee aroma. Perfect combo. The staff is super friendly at both the coffee shop and at the front at the store. The honey almond latte was delicious! Perfectly sweet with honey but not overpowering. Would love to visit this place again when I have more time to shop for books!! read more

Brown Mustache Coffee - Back patio - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Annapolis, Maryland

Well, Old Fox and Brown Mustache go hand-in-hand, and I love Brown Mustache just as much as the bookstore they're partnered with. The coffee and treats are delicious! They've also got a nice selection of teas. Being in a warm, relaxing bookstore, they add to the feel of the place with their café sounds and yummy smells wafting around the place. The inside tables are often packed with people enjoying their coffees and food, so it's definitely not just me that loves them! And there's a good amount of seating out back, too, though I also love just walking around downtown sipping my beverage from them. read more

This was the cutest bookshop and great coffee shop! Was super busy when we got there just before close. Coffee was excellent (decaf) and appreciated they had several non dairy milk options. Will be back next time we are in town! 5 stars! read more

A quaint coffee shop at the back of an adorable bookstore. I had a flat white and a pumpkin muffin. Both were delicious! The coffee shop was busy with a lot of people coming and going and several groups chatting at tables. A cute outside area with a few tables as well. Definitely worth a stop. My only negative comment is that the staff was very unfriendly. Another visitor even commented to me how unfriendly she was. It could have been an off day because the attitude did not fit with the relaxed cozy vibe of the establishment. read more

Adorable garden out back and located inside a bookstore. Caramelized honey latte started off delicious! I asked for less ice but there was still a ton of it that watered it down. It started off perfectly sweet and with a subtle honey flavor, but after 10 minutes was already watered down to the point it wasn't sweet enough and just tasted like watery coffee. read more

Cute shop within a bookstore. Definitely nice to hang out on a nice 75 degrees day! The coffee selections are decent and they give you some cream options. I got an iced latte and other half got americano. Iced latte was tasty but the americano could have more tlc.

I recently went to this cafe when stopping at Old Fox Books & Coffeehouse! The barista was the absolutely sweetest to me and my mom and was super helpful and patient. My mom got a tea and I got an iced caramel oat milk latte that was SOOO good! We also got a coconut lime muffin I believe and that was also super scrumptious! There are a few seats inside as well as some outside, the space is within the bookstore and it's very quirky and fun! If you're in need of a caffeine pick me up I definitely recommend or if you're in the book store make sure to also stop here! Our barista also gave us lots of recommendations and generally just made the experience all the better! read more

Brown Mustache Coffee - Kid book house in the back garden ! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Annapolis, Maryland

This coffee shop makes my bookworm heart happy. The front of the coffee shop is a bookstore with used books for sale. The coffee shop is located at the back of the bookstore. I ordered the mocha flavored iced latte. The coffee is actually tasty and it had a good amount of kick I needed to get through my afternoon. Do not forget to check in through Yelp to get 15% off your drink. The decor in this place is very interesting. There are books everywhere. There is a basement where there are more used books for sale and more seating area to study and hang out. There is also a patio and backyard area where you can hang out as well. It's such a good place to hang out during a nice day. This place is also very kid friendly. There is a small play area inside for kids with kids books and also there is a playhouse outside in the backyard for kids to play in. Overall, do check this place out. Great coffee and it's an awesome hang out place! read more

Their online menu did not match the menu in the cafe, so when I asked for my rose matcha latte, they only gave me matcha and I had to ask them about the rose. They said they haven't done rose matcha in over a year. I ended putting in their house made honey rose but you couldn't even taste it. The barista was apologetic and very sweet, but I was not a fan of the makeshift matcha rose latte. The ambience however was very cool! Really like having a cute quaint bookstore and a cafe combined and the outdoor seating was quite peaceful! read more

I go to a lot of coffee shops when I travel, and this is by far my favorite. Hands down. It has everything I could want from a coffee shop. To begin, it's in Historical Downtown Annapolis, Maryland which is a treat in itself. Just walking to the shop, you can take in the old nautical holes of the 1600s and 1700s. Once you get to the shop, you will notice at first that you are actually walking through a bookstore. Not a coffee shop. Old Fox Book Store occupies the front half of the old home-now store. It's when you walk to the back of the store that you see an entire area dedicated to the coffee shop. The menu isn't too big, but they always have some cool selections; my favorite being the wide variety of loose leaf teas that you cant find anywhere else. My go to is always the "Bonfire" tea which truly reminds me of sitting next to a warm fire on a cold fall day!!!! It's so amazing, I buy it in bulk most times I go back to Maryland! Annnnd this fall they even have London Fogs with the bonfire tea which is even more of a plus!!! The thing I really like about this shop though, is the atmosphere. You have the back area that feels like a normal coffee shop, but I'm too of that, you have a basement you can sit in that has tables in-between book shelf's! You honestly feel like you're studying at Hogwarts! Out back they have a garden that is decked out like something from a fantasy movie! From fairy gardens to suits of armor and even an outdoor chandelier, it's something you don't see in typical coffee shops! Now I know I sounded like I hyped it up, but honestly you just need to see it yourself to truly see how cool it is! read more

Brown Mustache Coffee is a little coffee shop in the back of Old Fox Books, a charming book store on a charming street in charming Annapolis. Can you tell I was charmed? I love bookstores and I love coffee. So finding Brown Mustache Coffee in the back of Old Fox Books, which I wandered into because I cannot resist an independent bookstore, was a wonderful surprise. The bookstore is small, and the coffee shop is, too. But it's a lovely spot. I left with an Americano from Brown Mustache and a rare old book from Old Fox Books, so I left happy. I definitely recommend stopping by both the bookstore and the coffee shop if you're like me and find the smell of books plus coffee to be the best in the world. read more

Good coffee but stopped in on a Sunday and seemed to me miscommunication between lady at register and barista right next to her. I said exactly what I wanted and they still got it wrong. Very good coffee though looked like could use some help back there. read more

The cafe offers a lovely ambience with its location on Maryland Avenue in the back of Old Fox Books, with access to the quaint porch and wooded backyard. The service itself is always great, so my only reason for four stars instead of five is that the lattes and cappuccinos (or anything including milk) often are hit or miss, usually tasting quite strange and off. Perhaps they are using some strange hipster milk that I'm not familiar with! Fortunately, I tend to have luck by mainly avoiding the weird mystery milk, like with traditional European macchiatos, Americanos, and regular coffee. read more

Amazing coffee and such a cute location! Not only can you browse all of the books that Old Fox Books has to offer, but you can relax with a great cup of coffee from Brown Mustache after.

Friendly and fast service! read more

After dropping off the girls at summer camp, my Sis and I decided to treat ourselves to a cup of coffee. We had plans to go to the Banneker-Douglass Museum later that morning which is conveniently around the corner. The quaint entrance to the cafe did not prepare us for the richness within. I love books. Guess what? They were everywhere. The front of the house is Old Fox Books, and I'm not sure if both business are connected. What I do know was that I needed to focus because I have limited space in my luggage! Maddie, the barista, was pure sunshine...bright smile and full of warmth. I ordered the Lavender Latte, which I was informed the Lavender syrup is homemade by Colleen the owner! It was wonderful! My sister ordered the Vanilla latte. She loved her drink as well. They use Ceremony coffee which is really good! We both annihilated our almond croissants... both were perfectly buttery and flaky as they should be! We were able to chat with Joel, the owner for a bit. Great guy! They have a great outdoor space in the back with a little nook for the kiddos. Please stop by and visit this establishment if you are ever in the area. Your spirit (and tummy) will be better for it! read more

This is probably one of the cutest coffee shops and bookstores that I have visited. Brown Mustache Coffee is located in the back of The Old Fox Bookstore and Coffee Shop. The coffee here is really good. They have a variety of drinks on their menu as well as a seasonal menu. I ordered a lavender latte and my husband ordered a London Fog. Our drinks came out after a few minutes and they were well made. My lavender latte was a good balance of sweetness and flavor. There was one person behind the bar making the drinks. So it took a few minutes but she was very friendly. The coffee they use is high quality too. The coffee shop is cozy and the bookstore is equally cozy and inviting. There are plenty of spaces to sit, with two levels, outdoor seating, and a kids area. The outdoor patio is a dream. With string lights, a chandelier, and a unique play area (you walk into a giant book), the space encourages you to slow down, enjoy your beverage, with a good book or good company (or both). If I lived here I would come all the time. I will just have to be satisfied with visiting it. read more
