Cause | Vibes | Outdoor Space Cause - The sticker shock is real when you first see the prices. However, part of what you're paying for supports programs that provide coffee to people experiencing homelessness, while another portion goes toward local causes in DC. In that sense, your extra dollars are helping fund meaningful work in the community. Vibes - This place has great energy. There is a sizable indoor seating area along with a comfortable outdoor section. You'll see a mix of people catching up with friends, working remotely, or simply enjoying a cup of coffee. The overall atmosphere feels welcoming, open, and community-oriented. Outdoor Space - This is probably the highlight, especially on a nice summer day. It's an ideal spot for people-watching, soaking up some sunshine, and enjoying the neighborhood atmosphere. If the weather is nice, grab a seat outside and stay awhile. Pro Tip: Parking is limited, so plan accordingly or consider walking if you're nearby. Pro Tip: Ask the staff for their favorite drink recommendations. They know the menu well and can point you toward some hidden gems. read more

Ebenezers Coffee is a really strong neighborhood spot. The coffee is consistently good and clearly made with care. I had a latte that was smooth, balanced, and exactly what I wanted. The space is bright, comfortable, and easy to settle into whether you're meeting someone or hanging out solo. Staff were friendly and on top of things without being stiff or fake. Only reason it's not a full five is the vibe during my visit. One guy was posted up for hours loudly talking on a group chat, and it completely took over the room. Not really something the staff can control, but it did make it harder to relax or focus. Still a great coffee shop and one I'd come back to. read more

Quaint coffee spot with some seating inside to get away from the heat. We got a latte and matcha lemonade. read more

Cute and very rustic - nice people and good coffee :) Not a huge pastry selection but that's okay! read more

Love this coffee house!!! Was dropping my daughter off at Union Station and we had a little time to kill. We easily found street parking. The inside was cute and had a decent amount of seating. They also have a patio, but with today being the warmest of 2026 they were all taken. There was one customer ahead of us, but the wait was very short. I got a white mocha matcha. I was a little skeptical, but the barista co-signed and suggested getting it iced. Delicious! I also got a pastry. Bacon, egg and cheese on brioche. Also really tasty. This place is clearly a neighborhood staple as I heard staff greeting several customers by name. Definitely glad we stopped in. If ever in the area, I will certainly be back. read more

I'd say this is 'very good' but 4 stars it is for their well executed pastries and pleasant vibe. I think my favorite may be the strawberry cheese danish, but the recommended cinnamon bun (which they helpfully suggested to warm up) had a good amount of spice, crisp outside layer, and a not excessive icing glaze. Also liked my matcha latte - would stop by frequently if lived closer. read more

Located a short ways from Union Station Ebenezers struck me as forgettable. The latter was muddled by a heavy dose of milk and more ice than allowed for the lid to close. While the interior was spacious and the patio had more tables than chairs it could have been a nice place to hang on a better day. read more

They use monin syrup which isn't bad, and you can bring your own cup for a .25 cent discount... very nice! Atmosphere inside is very nice with a fair amount of seating, but probably crowded on a week day. Coffee has a slight bitter taste almost and filled with coffee grounds which sucks... like the bottom of my iced coffee is filled with grounds and the top has them floating around...

Coffee and tea options with some pastry/dessert offerings. Matcha latte was well made with a milk alternative option. Good balance of soy milk to matcha. Employees work with a sense of urgency when lines are long. It didn't have much seating, so we squeezed into their long table for a bit to enjoy our drinks before heading back out in the rain to our next destination. read more

Please order a hot spiced dirty chai with a shot of espresso. The environment is always chilled, and parking is a challenge If you can handle that, you are in for a real delicious treat. read more

Coffee is superb especially on a rainy wet May Day! The service is fast and friendly, but I wish they had more sitting. I walked here to get coffee and work on my laptop but every seat was taken but there was a lot of standing room. There is outdoor sitting but on a rainy day it didn't help. But on a hot humid day I wonder if people still sit outside. read more

Such a great coffee shop selling high quality coffee! We bought a bag of beans and was treated to a sample of the same beans brewed as a drip! Really nice to try what we were buying and the coffee was great! The spot is also very large and has nice seating inside and outside. Great spot, especially if you are on the way to the train, as it's only a few blocks from the station. read more

This place is so awesome! They have a really great menu with awesome flavor options, and I love their seasonal additions. They never let me down! Were they really shine through though is how absolutely kind the workers are. I have a unique dietary restriction and they were so helpful and helping me navigate that with their menu! I really appreciated that and it made such a big difference to me. Cannot recommend this place enough. They have plenty of seating space so you can hang out and chat with friends or do some work, they also have some good food options read more

Never really ate here before but the cafe service is solid. Quiet, corner cafe near Union Station! I've enjoyed their Matcha Latte with honey and lavender, iced or hot. Today, due to a minor hiccup, I enjoyed a beautifully made cafe latte with hazelnut. No regrets! read more

Ebenezers Coffeehouse - Cherry Blossom Iced Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Haven't been in a while as I felt it was a bit inconsistent in quality in the past but this time my drink was perfect probably because there were girlies behind the bar. A gripe is I wished the shop allowed me to order an iced cortato or flat white but instead I have to order as a latte with less milk, so it's an expensive drink, but I guess that's the norm here in DC. Either way I still recommend y'all Capitol Hill crowd to please skip Starbucks and support this local shop instead. I promise it'll be a much better drink. read more

Ebenezers Coffeehouse - Mediocre with no love or care put into it whatsoever - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Excellent coffee for a good cause. Vanilla latte was good, even compared to the other good options nearby. The inside feels spacious, and there's additional seating downstairs if needed. Service is extremely friendly. read more

I stopped by for a quick breakfast, but I can see this place as a nice study spot if you can manage to find a seat. It's very busy and the seats were all occupied; there was a line both when I came in and when I left. I ordered the rosemary lavender lemonade, but I wouldn't order it again because the lemonade was so overpowering that I couldn't taste any of the rosemary or lavender. It was also very sweet, so I waited for my ice to melt before finishing it. I liked the flavor of the mushroom goat cheese turnover that I ordered; it was very umami. However, its texture wasn't as flaky as I had expected because they reheat food with a microwave instead of a toaster oven. read more

I've been wanting to try this coffee shop for a while since it's walking distance and it's always packed. I was a bit disappointed overall. The staff were VERY kind and helpful, but my matcha was not tasty and my chocolate croissant was just OK especially for the price. I paid more here than I usually would from my preferred coffee shops. I was able to find a table and get studying done even though it was pretty bustling the entire time. I think they had more seating in a semi-hidden area, but I didn't see how large the area was. Overall, I would go back on occasion but mostly because it's conveniently located. read more

I tried the orange sage latte, sour cherry vanilla scone, and the ham and cheese croissant. The food was delicious, the drink was not hot and not very strong. Coffeehouse was very busy but staff looked very miserable...not friendly and no smiling...the atmosphere was nice. read more

I love NCC. Therefore, u will love and support this coffee shop. I'm sharing this item for improvement - the food quality. I was so excited to order a turkey sausage and egg white sandwich, but it was not fresh. The texture and taste seemed like it was a cooked a week or two ago and simply microwaved before placing into the foil and handed to me. Honestly, even the foil presentation was not very good. It wasn't closed. The foil was a bit open and the sandwich overall was not good. I didn't eat it. Sad face. You get 5 stars anyway bc this is owned by my beloved church, but I need to make sure management knows the feedback about the food. Love ya! read more

omg, this has been the best coffee I have gotten in DC so far :) Was on our way to drop off family at the Station and saw that this coffee shop was nearby. The cafe was cute and accompanied with social atmosphere and ppl working, studying, and chatting. The cafe was clean and offered limited food items, baked goods, and even chips! We got the iced vanilla latte w oat and ohmy it was delicious. Not only do they use crushed ice but the coffee was excellent and the it was the perfect ratio of coffee to milk and vanilla! Although quite pricey for the amount you get, it was def worth getting. This is a solid 4.7! read more

Definitely a great option for coffee outside of Union Station proper. Their staff are friendly and quick at filling orders Their pasty selection is pretty good as well. I wish they had more tables for people to have coffee and work at in the main area inside! read more

My matcha was not good but I have to learn to stop getting them from coffee houses LOL so that on me and I'll take it. I have a GF friend and since becoming friends with her I always look to see what options are out there and they had some yummy looking GF baked goods so would def go back but don't get the matcha read more

A nice cafe in the area that's open to later hours and on weekends. Unfortunately, indoor seating is limited, so don't come here hoping to study or work with a guaranteed spot. I ordered their maple cinnamon latte and it wasn't really to my taste. Was kind of sour, and I'm more of a bitter coffee lover over sour coffee. Service was fine. read more

Staff was super super friendly! Interior is nice but small and they have plenty of lovely outdoor seating where you can people watch. I had the lavender latte which was DELICIOUS! They have a variety of milks and the good ice which gets points from me. Clean bathrooms and there is a free water dispenser. Would definitely return! read more

There are about a million coffee spots in DC, but I think this one is more than worth a try. I had a vanilla iced coffee and ham and cheese croissant; coffee was light and not too sweet, and croissant was airy and flakey. Staff was friendly and helpful.

Tl;dr the drinks and service are good. Upstairs has limited seating but lots more downstairs. Come charged bc you might not get a seat with an outlet (only three seats downstairs with outlets). Wifi is hit or miss. But, it's coffee with a cause! I've been coming to Ebenezers for a little over a year now as my partner has always lived right down the street. It's a great community coffee shop with a particular emphasis on community programs. It's honestly not super clear to me what role they serve but just from my experience, they seem to have a special heart for the homeless living near union station, so for that alone, they get bonus points from me. My only real complaints are the hours aren't long enough for me as someone who often works late and that their wifi is not always the most reliable, but usually is! Also, downstairs could really use more outlets. Give them a try :) read more

My favorite coffeeshop in DC! It's really quaint and local and is very involved in the local community. I believe it's a faith based coffeeshop based on their bookshelf where they sell faith based books. They also have their own coffee brands that are named after DC things like the Red Line! I always order an Americano or a Cold Brew! They have a rewards program for a free drink every 10 drinks. There is not a lot of seating, but always a lot of people, so if you plan to work or study here, arrive early to claim your spot! Parking also isn't very good as it's on the corner of a residential neighborhood, but that's why I think of it as my local coffeeshop! Go here. You won't be disappointed. read more
