    Vanilla Latte (w vanilla bean specs )
    Kaya A.

    The strawberry Jasmin matcha soda and blueberry chamomile matcha soda are both perfect.

    Love Game
    Phoebe D.

    Love the vibe at Doubles - great place to chill and hang out on the weekends and also great for coworking during the week. The coffee is a little bit on the fruitier side but I enjoyed it in a latte with their vanilla syrup. I also got the Love Game breakfast sandwich and it was delicious and substantial - specifically the bread was amazing (as to be expected of a place specializing in pizzas). Would love to come back and try their lunch options as well!

    Perfect patio day! Wanted to find a place where I could sit and read for hours. While they aren't squishy arm chairs there is plenty of seating. It shares a patio with the pizza joint next door so definitely doing that next time!

    This is a great space to cowork! There's nice tables with outlets and free WiFi as well. I did find the WiFi to be a bit spotty so I switched to my hotspot but I still loved working here. I ordered an iced lavender mint latte and the love game breakfast sandwich with no bacon. The latte was great and I loved my sandwich! The tomato jam added in really elevated the sandwich for me.

    Wow, this might be my favorite cafe in DC! I ordered a vanilla latte and the Shewolf sandwich. The latte was solid. The sandwich was really really good! The wrapper said Sonny's. I didn't realize they are connected so that explains the delicious sandwich. The space has two floors. The people are really nice and the music is not too loud. The second floor has a pingpong table as well. I love it and will be back!

    Small Planes coffee
    Isaac W.

    If you're looking for a craft coffee shop in Columbia Heights, this is one of the best in the neighborhood and one of the better shops in DC metro (others I like include Peregrine Espresso, Filter, Lost Sock). They use Small Planes as their primary roaster and they rotate guest roasters. I didn't try the food. Service seemed very friendly. Ambiance is "fun" but without the hipster pretentiousness. I can see why this place is very popular.

    Iced lav van latte
    Isabella R.

    We went to pick up and the wait was not terrible on a busy Saturday morning! The ambiance was cute and the breakfast sandwiches were to die for. Our only qualm is that the lattes were the price of Starbucks and like half the size (see pic). Tasted great just wish it lasted longer

    Indoor seating (view from back of cafe)
    Mary J.

    Cute and bustling neighborhood stop. Came in on a Sunday and felt the whole neighborhood was here. Lots of laptops. Cool haircuts. Plenty of seating inside and out.

    Love breakfast sandwich
    Maya B.

    I liked this place. The baristas were really friendly. If you go on the weekends expect a line as it got super busy but there's also a lot of seating both indoor and outdoor, though finding a plug was a challenge. I enjoyed my drink though I think the size was a little small but I also really recommend you check out the breakfast sandwich, well worth the price! I paid for street parking nearby. I would go back again!

    Very cute. Intimate place to meet /work! Very friendly and knowledgeable. I ordered an ice Americano with a pump of chocolate the chocolate they make in-house delicious. I definitely recommend this place, but parking can be a bit of a challenge.

    espresso drinks  @davideatsdc
    David H.

    awesome coffee shop, awesome space. the espresso drinks and single origin pour overs were delicious. The mushroom focaccia made in house was awesome. the ham and cheese turnover was also good - touch dry but the bites with the ham and cheese were delicious. lots of seating inside, upstairs, and a patio out back.

    vanilla latte, ham and cheese turnover
    Carly W.

    The food and drink were good though the selection was quite small. The area is very cute and there's a decent amount of seating though when I was here I could barely find a place to sit down. I like that there's outlets at the seats though the WiFi is very spotty and I ended up just using my own hotspot.

    Extra hot oat chai latte
    Brittany M.

    I stop by this place a couple of times a month. It's a popular work spot during the week and the seating inside and on the heated patio are plentiful. Their chai and hot chocolate are pretty good. I've also enjoyed their seasonal ciders. The love game sandwich is also good and a great portion for the price. I usually save half and reheat the next day.

The ivy wrapping the entire exterior of the building is stunning -- it feels like the cafe grew right out of the earth itself. The garden is lush, intentional, and beautiful, and the grapevine patio pulls you in like you've stumbled onto a secret courtyard in the middle of the city. I rode the metro over an hour from Alexandria for this and the exterior alone told me the commute was worth it. The iced coffee delivered. The vibe inside is warm, neighborhood-cozy, and full of character. This place has a soul that most coffee shops spend years trying to manufacture. Four stars instead of five -- and here's my honest feedback with love. The outdoor seating is gorgeous but the trees overhead drop baby spiders constantly. I watched them land on my table, my drink, and my arm more times than I could count. The birds hopping onto tables scavenging for crumbs added to the chaos. For a patio this beautiful, the experience deserves better. The fix is already in the DNA of this place. Weaving lavender, peppermint, chrysanthemums, citronella grass, marigolds, and rosemary throughout the patio would naturally deter spiders and mosquitoes while making the garden even more breathtaking. The fragrance would become part of the experience. Big Bear Cafe is already special. The ivy, the garden, the coffee, the community energy -- it all works. A few intentional additions to the patio and this place is untouchable. I will absolutely be back. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

I didn't see any food options on the menu that that caught my eye. The list looks like what I'd imagine a BK spot would have 10 years ago.

To say, I am disappointed in my experience here is an understatement. I don't normally write review, however, I want to warn others before they waste their money. I went with a friend to support local businesses. We were excited because the reviews were pretty solid. However, once we ordered, we were greatly disappointed. I ordered a Matcha Latte and the servers simply poured milk into a dirty worn out cafeteria plastic cup and dumped matcha powder in it without stirring or blending or adding any flavor. The picture shown below is after I mixed the powder into the milk more. My friend ordered a caramel frappe (not pictured) and the drink lacked caramel. It was simply blended milk and ice. The making of our drinks did not reflect a "cafe" style nor experience. Moreover, the food was below lackluster. The Northern Capital sandwich looked amazing in theory; however, I received one small piece of chicken on a large hoagie roll drenched in mayo with 3 pieces of spinach and a slice of avocado. In my opinion, the portions definitely did not match the price of the sandwich. Furthermore, my friend ordered the Steak & Cheese which came without cheese. After this, my friend and I did not drink the Latte and Frappe. We ate a small portion of the sandwiches to give the restaurant a fair chance, but we were beyond disgusted with the drinks. Therefore, we asked for a refund or the server to re-make them. To which the server laughed in our face with a nasty attitude replying, "Absolutely not!" I absolutely hate to leave a 1-star review on a local restaurant, but I could not go on without warning others to avoid the "cafe" portion of this place if you value your money. Fortunately, we went to a local restaurant nearby afterward to cleanse our palette and thoroughly enjoyed the service and food. More importantly, the prices were comparable to this place but they provided much larger portions and great service.
