The only thing disappointing about this coffee shop is how long I went without coming here. This gem is serving up delicious coffee drinks and small bites. Their standout to me was the Kopi Susu which packs a caffeinated punch but is also sweet and creamy-in my opinion this is all that coffee drinks should be. There's a few tables in and outside and the offer some light food as well. This is perfect for a morning walk or if you have time before catching the metro! read more

DUA DC Coffee - Kopi Susu - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

We lived in DC for a short bit and I will miss DUA more than anything. If u haven't been or are passing through, you have to come. The coffee is amazing! I love mochas, and frequented that and the mint mocha until I tried the pandan (I do w whole milk) and it is amazing. I always asked for less sweet (25g of whichever flavor I got). If you can get a table, it's a great place to spend some time with a killer coffee. Also, always had great interactions with the baristas! read more

I got the pandan cold brew, which was alright but not as flavorful as I hoped. The coffeeshop has a great ambiance though! Very nice and cozy. (7/14/25) read more

Love this place! Went with some friends to work on things. It's pretty small but still has a good amount of seating. You just have to get there when it isn't crowded. It can definitely get crowded but the vibe is good you don't even care. I love supporting Asian-owned business so this is certainly on my list to revisit and bring friends to. read more

I've been here a few times and this really is one of the best coffee shops in the whole DMV area. The drinks here are always great iced or hot, and even the flavored drinks are not super sweet by default. For warner drinks the milk froth and temperature are consistently on point. read more

I've had this spot on my list for a while, and I'm so glad to have tried it! The kopi susu (coffee with condensed milk) was so smooth - sweet but not too sweet. I tried a friend's pumpkin latte and that was lovely and well-spiced. I definitely want to come back and try their pour over! I also got the rendang toast. It was a generous portion and really filling and warming on a gloomy day. I will say that it wasn't as flavorful as other rendang I've had before - it was a little on the bland side - but I still enjoyed it overall. Curious to try more coffee and their pastries next time! It's small and there's very little seating, so I'd say it's better to get your drink to go or come during off hours - I was here on the weekend and it was packed! They got orders put pretty quickly despite the crowd, though, and everyone was welcoming. read more

I have been meaning to try Dua since it opened and was so happy I did today. I walked in hoping to get one of the specialty coffees and got the hot Kopi Susu, a latte-style coffee with condensed milk. The staff was super friendly and it was very easy to get my order in despite the somewhat crowded shop. The barista asked me what my milk preference was, and I ordered skim. During the brief wait, I looked around at the well curated space and beautiful ambiance. My coffee came out in two minutes, which was great. Because I got it to go, it didn't look like anything special but it tasted great! Even though the milk was nonfat, the condensed milk provided an ideal level of thickness, and made the drink. Very smooth. The coffee was also strong, and surprisingly not too sweet which I really appreciated. I'm excited to come back and try another specialty coffee here very soon. read more

Solid spot for a cup of Indonesian coffee from a minority-owned business in downtown DC. There's also a couple of Indonesian snacks available to order to pair with your drink, as well as other typical pastry offerings (croissants), and even some empanada choices. Wifi is available, with some table seating in the back for patrons to work on their laptops. There's also some window bar stool seating at their front window and outdoor patio seats to enjoy the view of Mcpherson Square park, which is right across the street. read more

DUA DC Coffee - mango matcha - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Dua DC has such an unique concept. I can't recall the last time I had a kopi kedua although I've had different versions of condensed milk lattes from other Asian countries (Malaysia, etc.). One thing I like about Dua's kopi kedua is that it isn't too strong, very light in flavor and sweet. I admit, I personally like sweet drinks so I was a fan. I bought a bag of their beans before for S and he said it was a unique drinking experience because coffee beans from Indonesia are not as widely sold as say, beans from Columbia or Ethiopia. Dua is also a short walking distance from the subway. I personally like strolling with an iced Kopi southwards because the neighborhood is so beautiful, especially in later summer/ early fall. read more

I'm a big fan of Dua. Their coffee is great, their pastries are great and while I haven't tried everything, I'm a big fan of their breakfast food. Their specialty drinks are so tasty as well! read more

Dua has been on my list!!!! Finally last week while taking family from Philippines around DC, we decided to check them out. IT DID NOT DISAPPOINT!!! We got the pandan cold brew, kopi susu, mint hot chocolate and cappuccino. My favorite is the pandan cold brew! It is such a unique flavor and who would've thought pandan will go so well with coffee???? Staff are friendly and attentive! There was a line when we went but it moved fast. They have clean restrooms and tables to sit. Lovely cafe! We will definitely be back and excited to try new concoction they will come up with! read more

Paid my first-ever visit to Dua today and got a wanoja pour over. I'm an experienced coffee snob and have lived in the DMV for over two years, so I don't say this lightly: it was the best cup of coffee I've had in the area. I will go out of my way to return here every chance I get. I also got a bakwan which was delicious! read more

really cute coffee shop in mcpherson square! the line was out the door when i entered, so i got very excited about my coffee. i ordered a kopi susu with oat milk, and my friend got a mango matcha. the place is kind of small but we managed to grab a seat on a bench - looks like most people take their stuff to go. the kopi susu didn't taste different from a regular latte to me, but it was incredibly delicious with high quality coffee nonetheless. i took a sip of the mango matcha and it was out of this world. i can't wait to return and try more menu items! read more

This is quite literally the worst coffee I have ever had. Like a kcup is better, staff was polite and the ambience was nice but sadly I won't be back due to the poor taste in coffee. read more

Overall 4.5/5 coffee experience! Love that the barista did an amazing latte art Latte is medium roast but still a lil roasted than usual which I like since I typically prefer dark roast read more

Drinks were a 10/10 and I loved how cozy the ambiance was. I feel like it would be the perfect place to come study or meet a friend or two for a nice chat! They also serve some food here and I would try to their food next time! Service was also nice and quick and I liked how they asked about adjusting sweetness as I don't like my coffee too sweet. Drinks pictured: -Iced kopi susu (nice and smooth iced coffee, with a hint of condensed milk flavor) -Hot brown latte (latte art was beautiful and not too sweet) read more

Dua is probably my favorite coffee shop in DC serving Javanese coffee. The mural inside is also done by a wonderful and talented DMV artist Miss Chelove. It can get busy inside so seating may sometimes be a challenge, but well worth the visit. read more

Came by Dua for a quick afternoon pick me up. It was a hot day, and I just needed the caffeine to get me through. They have so many good options. I ended up trying the oat pandan cold brew. I loved that it was automatically oat milk without an extra charge. The coffee was great. It wasn't a overtly strong pandan flavor which I appreciated because it didn't completely hide the coffee taste. It wasn't overly sweet either. Such a solid coffee spot. I highly recommend if you love Asian flavors and good coffee. read more

Awesome and authentic Indonesian coffee, the service was a bit scattered but it was busy to be fair. Wouldn't sit down here just because it was cramped, but it was great to take out. read more

I walked here from the Washington Monument. I arrived right at 9AM on a Sunday in late August and I was second in line. I ordered a large (12oz) hot matcha latte and a croissant filled with chocolate. This was an amazing matcha. As soon as I finished it, I wished I had another one to drink. It was creamy and it had a delicious sweetness to it that wasn't overly sweet. I also used the restroom while I was here. You have to ask for the door code but the restroom smelt very clean upon entry and the toilet tissue was so soft. I will be back the next time I am in the area read more

Came here 4 times on my trip to DC. Convinced this is in my Top 5 favorite coffees I've had. The espresso is delicious and the way they make their lattes they come out so thick and creamy. Amazing. The staff was super friendly. It's not huge, so not the kind of coffee shop too many people stay and hang out at but it was perfect for a grab and go. read more

Visited two times! Once during a weekday and the next on a weekend. *Ambiance: A cute small local coffee shop with Indonesian roots and culture! Decor is really cute. There are some seats available inside if you want to enjoy your coffee and food inside. *Food/Drinks: Love the coffee! I just like to order a simple iced vanilla latte but definitely want to try their signature drinks next time. Tried a bagel there for a snack and it was average. *Service: Service is great, folks are really nice! No complaints! Definitely will continue visiting :) read more

I loved my experience at Dua! The cashier was very friendly and answered all our questions nicely and knowledgeably. She was able to point me in the right direction with the matcha & advise me on not getting sweetener since it's pre sweetened. They were packed, but service was still quick. It's a tiny shop with some tables and stools in the back , but not much. Perfect for grab & go! Highly recommend their matcha. Delicious!! read more

Stumbled upon this coffee shop to get a quick fix of caffeine from my day trip to Washington D.C. from Boston. We got the Kopi Kedua which was an Indonesian styled latte with condensed milk and it was delicious! However, I wish the caffeine was stronger. The employees were friendly and answered our questions about their signature drinks. They have a chic and relaxed interior decorated with cultural pieces of Indonesia which was unique. If I were visiting D.C again, I would definitely return to try out the other signature drinks! read more

Needed a coffee while visiting DC and stopped into this cute and super unique coffee spot. I love how they're big on the Malaysian roots! Service was awesome, the people explained everything and made sure you'd order something you wanted. I ended up getting the Brown Latte, Iced, with an extra shot of espresso. And it was just....not for me at all. I know they use coconut palm sugar but it made it taste so so weird and NOT my favorite. I doubt the extra shot did anything but my taste buds just didn't enjoy the flavor of the coconut palm sugar. I'm sure the coffee itself is great, they have SO many options and I'm sad I didn't enjoy my drink as much! Otherwise, seating inside & outside is amazing. If you want something different, then I highly recommend this spot to those in the area! read more

I'm so happy this is near my job! Also, I don't think I've ever seen an Indonesian coffee shop and their coffee is really good! There are other drinks that are so unique I will definitely come back here to try! I don't remember the drink I got (so sorry my Yelpers), but it was very unique! They used coconut water, a shot of expresso, and some syrup I believe. Really good! I really wanted to try the Klavee, but I think they ran out that day. More reason to visit! I recommend trying this place! read more

Coffee - baristas knew what they were doing, my shot was pulled fairly well. Would like to come back to try again Vibe - was very crowded when we were here on the weekend so we had to grab and go read more

Klavee is refreshing as it's a mix of coffee and coconut water with lemon. It tasted like a watered down yet hydrating coffee. It was a very cool experience and would recommend on a hot summer day read more

So happy to have found this little gem of a coffee shop! It's super small, and this both makes it special (so cozy inside) and challenging (can be pretty hard to find a place to sit). The drinks we got were great, the service was friendly, and it's just such a memorable space. We sat for a while in an alcove with comfy chairs and got some work done while sipping on our drinks. I'd love to go back next time I'm in the area -- to hang out for a bit and to try their signature item, the Kopi Susu! read more

Friendly staff, fabulous oat milk latte. The line moves fast even when it's busy. Highly recommend!

The Kopi Kedua iced latte was one of the best lattes I have ever had!! I asked for it slightly sweet and it was perfectly sweet and creamy. The employees are kind and helpful. I came in on a week day afternoon and it was busy with most of the outdoor and indoor tables full. I cannot wait to come back for more Kopi Kedua! read more

I like the ingredient sourcing concept, but aside from that, this place is such a meme. Absurd prices even for DC, rude baristas on their phone for half of their shift, and plastic cups for in-house drinks. If you're looking for a coffee shop to do work in, go somewhere else, like Cafe Cino (run by a wonderfully friendly and excellent barista DC local). read more

I was really looking forward to the iced mint mocha here! My friend and I both got it, and the colors were quite different, which we thought was in account of her having oat milk and mine having dairy. However, mine was very minty and hers was not at all - we ended up mixing our two drinks to get to a flavor in the middle. Staff was friendly and the shop itself was cute, but the inconsistency in drinks was unfortunate. read more
