The coffee is always stronger than other places we've been too - which we prefer. The pastries are good - not life changing but solid. We had the breakfast sandwich today for the first time and it was good! They press it so the cheese was nice and melty and it tased homemade. They're always kind and happy to offer suggestions. It's cozy inside and they have a second floor you can go in search for more tables.

We especially liked the edamame hummus! The curly fries were the only thing that was just OK. I also got a specialty coffee that was delish! Next time, I want to try a slice of cake. Service: Order at the counter and you bring it to your table. There is a countertop bar, too. It's a casual atmosphere that's clean and modern. Definitely recommend Any Day Now.

This is a great spot to wfh (there's wifi and plenty of tables - some with regular chairs and some…read morewith a more lounge-y set up) and the service is always very friendly. I love that they have a happy hour. Why not get some work done and then reward yourself with a nice cocktail after? Unfortunately I feel like the food leaves some things to be desired. The scallion pancake sandwiches are good in terms of flavor, but I find that the really crispy pancake it comes on makes it difficult (and messy) to eat. The ube cake slice I ordered needed more flavor, in both the cake and the frosting, and the cake was on the dry side. This was a disappointment since one slice was $9. I will definitely return but I'll be particular about what I order.

That being said, my orders are fairly simple - usually an iced latte and from time to time I might add a breakfast sandwich to the mix. Both are consistent and meets my needs.

Overall though, service is solid and I'm able to always get in and out of here quickly!

The line was incredibly slow, latte was served hot, & food was mediocre. The interior is stunning, bright, & I felt transported to another country.

The coffee shop is beautiful, but it is very basic coffee. We were staying at The Thompson, and…read moremaman was a very short walk from the hotel. While the shop looks amazing, the coffee was extremely basic. I ordered an iced latte and I could not taste the espresso. The cinnamon Kouign-amann was extremely dry, as was the chocolate chip cookie. When you tried to break the cookie in half it essentially exploded into crumbs. They do have a lot of seating, but there were many single people taking up 4-person tables so it was difficult to find a place for 4 of us to sit. The staff wasn't unpleasant, but they also were not very friendly. They did keep the line moving as fast as they could. Again, the shop is beautiful and bright. The branding on their bags is adorable. Their cutlery is wrapped and there is washi tape with their name on it holding it together. Their drinks and food are served on very nice dishes. I just wish that the coffee and pastries tasted as good as everything looks.

We stopped by Colada Shop during our trip to DC, and it ended up being one of our favorite meals…read morenear the Wharf! The restaurant is super cute, with a fun cafe vibe, and it's an easy walk from the waterfront. We ordered the Colada Trio, which came with empanadas, cauliflower sliders, and yuca fries. Everything was delicious, and it came with three different sauces that were honestly all so good. I could've eaten those sauces with everything. We also ordered the Platanachos (plantain nachos), which were flavorful and such a fun twist on traditional nachos. They accidentally forgot the cauliflower and mushroom topping, but as soon as I mentioned it, they brought it out right away along with extra sauce. Mistakes happen, but what matters is how a place handles them, and they were incredibly accommodating, which I really appreciated. It was pretty busy when we visited, and I noticed who I believe was the manager or owner helping clean tables and checking on guests. I always love seeing that kind of hands-on involvement. Great food, friendly service, and an awesome location if you're exploring the Wharf. I'd definitely recommend stopping by!

I don't typically go for counter service or QR code service restaurants, but stopped in for a quick bite before a concert at the Anthem. The Cuban sandwich is legit and very tasty with tender pork, soft fresh bread with a crunchy crust, and great pickles. And the stewed plantains were perfectly tender with a caramel like sweetness. Probably the nicest surprise was their reasonably priced cocktails that have a Cuban flair. The happy hour options are very tasty.

This is the kind of queer space I wish existed in every city and I hope it succeeds for years to come!

They were also out of Rose. We had a really sweet waiter who managed the entire restaurant while his manager sat in the back the entire time on his phone. Perhaps he should have gone out to get English muffins or rose- or maybe helped in some way with customers

Their menu is simple with all the espresso classics, but they also had some interesting drinks that I wanted to try. I got the ELDERBERRY MATCHA since I was curious about the combination. The barista recommended whole milk (or non-dairy milk) since it doesn't take away from the elderberry and matcha flavors as much as non-dairy milk, and I completely agreed! The elderberry syrup popped through the matcha and it wasn't too sweet! The drink overall was very enjoyable and I'd definitely recommend giving it a try. I'm glad I stopped by to give this cafe a try this past Saturday afternoon.

The space itself is only big enough to fit a handful of people at a time (with no seating) but it's great for a grab and go experience. While I've never actually had any of the soft serve that people rave about, their coffee bar drinks are great. Over the summer I would usually order and iced latte or Vietnamese coffee, both always made with love and care. The aesthetics of the space are top notch as well - I always feel so good once I walk in. Great option overall if you're in the mood to grab some coffee or ice cream on the go!
