In terms of drinks, I tried the lavender latte and the tiramisu latte which were delicious and served me well when I needed an evening pick-me-up. And I am pretty sure every macaroon is delicious so you really can't go wrong with the flavors you choose. On separate occasions, I ended up sampling a variety of flavors, including birthday cake, hazelnut pistachio, Earl Grey, coconut, rose, blueberry lavender, and coffee. I truly appreciated how fresh and light each taste was, perfectly reflecting the artistry in the making of these macarons. The service was efficient and friendly, and the display case was a feast for the eyes--full of stunning, mouthwatering desserts. I hope everyone has as wonderful an experience as I did, enjoying both the coffee and the patisserie. Happy desserting to all!

I'm not sure whether they leave small pieces of ube in it, but I felt like I could taste them. One scoop costs $8.25 after tax, and the portion size is generous. Great value and great taste! I ordered through DoorDash, and the staff kindly packed my order and kept it in their freezer so I could enjoy it in perfect condition. Very nice of them!

PISTACHIO & CHOCOLATE SCOOPS I was skeptical at first esp with this combo but babyyyyy this was EVERYTHING! Both flavors together and separate were delicious and sweet but not overpowering. Perfect match and will definitely get again... maybe even I'll get all flavors lol. Btw I love seeing the NITRO coming out the kitchen aids, such a cool scene. I love the colors in the store, orange spoons and white kitchen aids are so different but I love it plus the aesthetics thru-out the store was cute. The pricing is decent and they have a limited menu of Icecream flavors, milkshakes and even hot cocoa. We will definitely be back especially since they gave us a Punch card so after 10 scoops/visits, you get FREE Icecream.

The staff is super friendly and the place is quaint but has a handful of tables inside and outside. They justify the high price tag by whipping the ice cream with liquid nitrogen in a mixer. Although cool I didn't think it added much to the experience and was little gimmicky. I tried the cookie dough which was solid and not too sweet. My friend tried one of their seasonal flavors (lavender honey) and it tasted like neither. I think they use the same base for most of their flavors because hers tasted very similar to mine and both were good quality. I think the flavors are hit or miss, but unfortunately you can't sample them! I think this place is a good treat, but overall I'm not sure I'd go back.

I was not sure what to expect, but I love a good surprise and my coworkers love a good sweet treat, so it felt like a win win. When I arrived, my mystery bag ended up being all chocolate chip cookies, so that is the only flavor I have tried so far. BUT when I put them in our breakroom around 9 in the morning, they were completely gone by 11:30. So it is safe to say they were a hit. Delicious and definitely not likely to last long if you are sharing with others. I am looking forward to coming back and trying more flavors. The store had a steady stream of customers, but the service was quick and smooth. One heads up: parking is a little tricky, so expect to walk a bit from where you park to the store. Not a big deal, but good to know in advance!

Three Whistles Coffee Shop…read more This coffee shop just reminded me why I fell in love with coffee in the first place. I had my first cup of "Joe" as a teenager while enjoying a nice family breakfast in downtown DC. I recall my Pops saying, "Leave room for coffee in that cup of sugar!" Back then, I thought, wow... that was funny. I later learned that it was hacky, a commonly used joke for heavy sugar users. Nevertheless, the taste felt electrifying. I don't recall the brand. It was definitely either Maxwell House or Folgers, but... whatever it was, it was delicious. Over the years, I began to dabble with different brands, different brews and different coffee formulas until I discovered Starbucks. It was the mid-90s when I had my first... wait for it... wait for it... "Caramel Macchiato" or Hot Heaven in a Cup, as I best can describe it. Seemingly every day for 25-plus years, I would gladly offer Starbucks a small percentage of my salary to enjoy another cup of Hot Heaven. But something happened along the way. In the early years, Starbucks was premium. They gave tremendous regard to how each cup was crafted. However, as is often the case in life, as time went on, the care and craftsmanship began to wane. It wasn't an overnight decline. It was more insidious than that. I knew something was off, but again, like many things, I continued to blindly pour into it, hoping for a rebirth, chasing that cup that tasted like the first time... Well today that happened. Not at Starbucks. I stumbled across that rebirth at Three Whistles Coffee Shop, a lovely, community-style coffee shop located on Wilson Boulevard in Arlington. I requested my order exactly as I like it, a variation to the original recipe, one that I cultivated through 25 years of trial and error. The gentleman listened closely while maintaining a courteous conversation. I watched him prepare my order when I realized, he wasn't just going through the motions, as I've grown use to experiencing at that other shop. Something felt different, yet vaguely familiar, that seemingly dated attention to craftsmanship... a precise pour into a tilted cup to create that wonderful creamy blend. And then, just when I thought his attention to detail had reached its end, he topped-off my foam with a decorative design, all while maintaining his place in our conversation. Then came the moment of truth. I took my first sip, and instantly... I'm reminded of that pearly-gates-in-a-cup feeling. The rebirth. What a caramel macchiato tastes like without stockholders' influence. Without corporate meetings. Without commercials. Without a glitchy App. Without shelves of $25 merch. Just a cup of heaven made in a community-centric shop by a barista who prefers to go by his own name, not logos on an apron. Recommendation level: Go immediately if you want a great cup of Joe. But I should warn you... After Three Whistles coffee, Starbucks may never taste quite like coffee again.

The quality was great, and I only had to wait 10 minutes for my food. I highly recommend this spot, great for the price and quality of food! I will be back to try more, maybe sweets next time!
