*****3.5 stars***** I was in need of an afternoon boost so stopped by Cortado. Ordered an iced tiramisu latte with almond milk, which was ready in no time. Although it provided the right amount of pickmeup that I needed, it didn't remind me of tiramisu at all - just a regular iced latte. Service was super friendly. Good of tables to eat, work, or catch up with a friend. Plenty of parking available in the large lot.

I ordered a hot chai and only had to wait a minute or two for it to come out! The drink was delicious and I love the cup design. There is plenty of seating and the place has a clean vibe to it. The workers are very nice and greeted me immediately after walking through the door and were patient when I was paying with cash. There is also plenty of parking which is great. I would definitely come back to this cafe again the next time I'm in Springfield!

Comfortable seating and elegant tea service.

Perfect lunch spot for nice casual. Crepes are the specialty, but the paninis look very good as well. Plenty of comfortable seating. We had the Báhn Mi Chicken and Norwegian crepes. Both delicious, with fresh ingredients. The teas were elegantly served and deliciously refreshing. A rare find in the land of strip mall sameness. We'll be back.

AMERICANO
Rachel V.

Had an Americano and breakfast platter. The place is small and the seats / tables are pretty narrow. The staff is nice. I think the prices are a little high but then again, what isn't these days? The Americano was quite good. I would return for coffee. The breakfast was just OK. I didn't actually like the meat. The eggs were tasty. Maybe I'd order crepe next time.

Bacon Egg and Cheese, LATTE

It's a small cafe that is a little bit on the pricier side, especially for food, but I do say it was worth it! The staff were very kind and brought our food and drink out to us. I ordered the Dulce de Leche latte which was delicious and looked gorgeous too! The sandwich was also very good, and I'm pretty sure it was turkey bacon on the sandwich which I had never had before, but it tasted great! My dad and I came here in the morning and it was a pretty quiet place as well, just a few people around us either chatting or doing school work, so it's a nice place to take someone to catch up with or do some work without a lot of noise. The bathrooms were also very clean as well!

Apple Brie crepe
Alicia M.

Amazing food, fast service, and cute atmosphere make this breakfast all day spot a hit! They also have extended Ramadan hours which is also appreciated by the many who fast. Try the pina colada crepe or beaked apple & brie if you are wanting something that is warm and cozy. Top it off with a chia latte and your tastebuds will be happy you did!

I love trying new coffee shops so I had to give this one a try. The cool thing about this cafe is that they offer crepes, breakfast all day, sandwiches, and coffee. I ordered a pumpkin spice latte, yes, I'm one of them lol. Anyhoo, it was really delicious. I can tell it was crafted with quality ingredients and the presentation was so beautiful. The prices seem reasonable. I love that there is ample parking around. I was greeted upon entry. My Apple Maps had trouble finding the place but it is in the same plaza as Chick fil a. It's right next to Taco Bamba.

STRAWBERRY BANANA

We need more small businesses like this that do it right. Came here for dessert on a date and wasn't disappointed. The inside is very clean, although somewhat tight seating. There is somewhat of a wait if you get certain items on the menu that require prep, but that just means everything is made fresh to order. The crepe we had was delicious. Overall, a great crepe option in this part of town.

Dulce de Leche latte
Karen R.

This was a nice new coffee shop to try. On a federal holiday morning there were several guests having coffee. There is a seating area however the location is not large. They had an area with more comfy seating for chatting and tables along the right side. I decided to try the Dulce de leche iced latte and it was tasty! Service was great and I left happy with my coffee. There was music playing inside but not too loud.

Tiramisu Latte
Samina M.

I absolutely love Cortado Cafe! I recently came in with a friend during the first weeks of their opening and was greeted by their incredibly kind staff. The cafe is cozy and has lots of room for eating in or getting some work done - the perfect quiet spot to enjoy a nice cup of Joe! Having recently went to NYC (home of the viral tiramisu latte), I was so excited to see there was a Tiramisu Latte on their menu. It truly is so decadent and delicious - the perfect blend of cream and coffee that will leave you wanting more. One of the best coffees I have ever had in the DMV! If you ever find yourself in Springfield, Cortado Cafe is the place to be for quality coffee and delicious food!

Counter and pastry case

*Apologies in advance for the long review* Currently sitting here and it's my 1st visit - had to write about it immediately! I knew there was a location in Alexandria (never been) but this is closer to home and recently opened. Based on the Alexandria location photos I was pleasantly surprised when i walked in here bc it almost matches in the way the wall is lined with comfy booth seating and tables with seats across. (2 person setting) Additionally, they have bar counter seating if you like to watch people make your drinks. There's plenty of outlets, which is vital for me when looking for a WFH cafe spot. Relaxing piano music and great environment even if you have meetings and 2 clean restrooms. Located right across from Brookfield Plaza, next to Taco Bamba in the same area as Chic-Fil-A. I've been sitting here for a couple hours during my lunch break and currently still working. There is plenty of parking but since this is a busy plaza it may take a couple min - I got lucky and found a spot right in front. I put down my things and was promptly greeted at the register. The staff is very friendly! I asked what flavor shots they have for the coffee and Mustafa gave me a whole list. I love going to cafes where youre given dine-in style cups and mugs - I came to sit and enjoy my time, not rush out of here so I do not want a to-go cup lol. I got a hazelnut latte and ordered the caprese panini with a house salad on the side. The latte was great, I didn't have to add any sugar and you could taste the flavor shot. The panini was delicious, great portion and the dressing on the salad was lovely. How sweet, the staff member just came up to me and gave me a yogurt parfait to try :D ! I got him to add honey for me and it's absolutely delicious. Crunchy from the granola/oats, with various berries and nuts for texture. I talked with Mustafa and Sam, (staff and owner), who are from Mauritania and Morocco, who told me the bacon is turkey bacon and the meats here are halal - which is great to know so that I can order the meat dishes in the future. Mustafa is orginially from New York so he has great recs, he's also visited many of the DMV coffee shops so talk to him if you need insight I would gatekeep this tbh LOL but they absolutely deserve the business, and I'm hoping to become a regular here inshallah :)!

Cappuccino
Ashley S.

This is an amazing cafe! The food is delicious, especially the cannoli crepes. The service is fast and friendly. The food is served on real plates with real silverware. 10/10, amazing. We also got an almond croissant and some spinach pastries to take home. They were equally as delicious as the crepes.

Shakshuka, strawberry banana crepe, and matcha latte.
Tessa A.

10 stars.The food is amazing and fresh. The service is top notch. The seating is clean and comfy and music low enough for quiet conversation. Actually.. just give them all the stars. This is just a great place with wonderful food. A gem.

Top sandwich is the Turkey, egg, and cheese croissant and below is the Merguez Sandwich (Spicy Moroccan Lamb sausage).  MERGUAZ SANDWICH.

See all

First things first: clearly the camera did not eat first here, and honestly, that tells you…read moreeverything you need to know. We tried three items: the red velvet cake, the mocha cake, and an apple pastry (not sure of the exact name, but it reminded me of an apple turnover/empanada). Let's start with the red velvet cake, so good. Moist, flavorful, and honestly better than I expected. Red velvet is one of those cakes that's easy to mess up, but they executed it perfectly. What impressed me even more is that we bought it right before closing, didn't eat it immediately, and it still tasted amazing hours later even after being refrigerated. The mocha cake was well-made, soft, spongy, and clearly high quality, but it just wasn't for me. It has a strong coffee flavor, so if you're a coffee person, you'll probably love it. For me, it was about a 6/10. Now the real star: the apple pastry. This was everything. Perfectly flaky, lightly crisp on the outside, and filled with fresh, flavorful apples. It melted in your mouth! could've easily eaten multiples of these!! Service was also a highlight. Even though we came in right before closing, the staff was kind, patient, and efficient. Nothing felt rushed, which I really appreciated. The shop itself is cute and quaint. Perfect for a quick stop or a casual treat. Overall, Paris Baguette delivered. Some items may come down to personal preference, but the quality is there. I'd absolutely go back, especially for that red velvet cake and the apple pastry . Sidenote: they also have candles & birthday decor for purchase!

Nevertheless, pastries are good and the pumpkin spice latte was tasty! I would download the app if you are a regular so you can earn some points.

The customers are kind of rude though- leaving tables and floors messy with spilled foods or drinks- which is unfortunate.

I was sad to see that they don't offer 'housemade' pastries anymore, as I remember seeing in their past photos; their menu for their offerings was clearly updated. In addition, the drinks that we ordered were just not good at all: +the Toasted Marshmallow Latte - prepared with 2 shots of espresso, choice of milk, and a housemade toasted marshmallow syrup; this tasted like watered down coffee with no 'toasted marshmallow' taste; coffee could have been prepared strong, and we did ask for 'extra hot', but received it regular temperature +Witch's Potion - an apple cider with chai, topped with a dash of cinnamon; probably one of the worst ciders we've had - wasn't really sure the mixture with the chai, but this just seemed like it was an improperly steeped tea that did not have any flavor The staff were friendly, and there seemed to be local patrons who come here on a regular basis. The blue mobile truck is very cute, and they had some seating available with nice fall decor. I'm glad I was able to check this place out, but no dice, Bear and Swan. +watered down lattes +avoid the ciders +friendly service +updated schedule on their social media

I have tried almost all of their drinks and have nothing bad to say. The ingredients they use are high quality and you can taste it in the drinks. They offer matcha flights as well and whenever I walk in I see plenty of people enjoying them so I know it's a big hit. I will also say they go over the top for customer service.

He reached out to me via text and also provided all of the ingredients listed so that we could figure out what she reacted to. Great customer service and amazing drinks.

Absolutely wonderful!! Annandale's Soricha is one of the DMV's best and most unique dessert and tea…read morecafes. They're best known for their bingsoo, or Korean shaved ice, which is perfectly fluffy and delightful, with a sweet, milky flavor that acts as a great canvas for all their toppings. You can't go wrong with of their bingsoo options, but they do run a little bit large and are meant for 2-3 people to share. If you're in the mood for something smaller, they do have a delightful selection of other desserts, chief among which is their rice paper waffle. This glorious confection is a super light, crispy waffle made entirely out of rice paper (which, as a side bonus, also means it's gluten-free). It's slightly chewy on the inside but generally incredibly crunchy and airy. It comes topped with a lovely rice-based syrup that tastes a bit savory -- almost malty -- and black sesame. You can also just get a scoop of their rich, creamy ice cream (instead of the shaved ice that it normally comes on top of), and it will be topped with a generous helping of red bean paste, injeolmi powder, sliced almonds, and corn flakes. The combination of flavors and textures levels up this humble little scoop to a full-scale dessert with sweet, savory, and nutty notes. Aside from their sweet treats, Soricha also has a bunch of fun drinks. They have a long menu of expertly brewed artisan teas, or you can also cool down with one of their refreshing fruit mixes. The omija berry refresher is particularly lovely, with a great balance of tart and sweet flavors that make it the perfect summertime drink. Beyond the food, the service is also super friendly and quick, and the cafe is gorgeously decorated with chill, relaxing ambient music. It's a delightful place to hang out with a friend to chat, finish some work, or do a bit of reading. I will note, however, that it is quite expensive -- the bingsoo is about $20, and the teas are a minimum of $7. It's so worth it every time, but it's definitely more of an occasional treat than an everyday indulgence.

The garlic cream cheese bread was AMAZING - unbelievably soft and fluffy with a warm, creamy center. At first glance it looks like it would be heavy, but it's actually really light and easy to eat. The garlic flavor was perfect and not overpowering. The garlic sausage block was also delicious, buttery and savory with the sausage baked right inside the bread. For something sweet we got the chocolate cream donut, which was the perfect level of sweetness - not overly sugary at all. For drinks we tried the iced matcha tiramisu and the iced jasmine green tea. The matcha was really good quality. I couldn't taste the tiramisu flavor too much (probably because we mixed it), but the matcha itself was excellent. The iced jasmine green tea was exceptional - super refreshing and hydrating. The cashier was also very patient and helpful with my indecisiveness while ordering, which I really appreciated.
