Gavi Brunch Cafe is located within the food hall in the middle of Chantilly. Not to be confused with their Centreville location. Parking is easy and free. Service prompt and wait time minimal. The matcha Einspanner I got was very creamy and a tad bit on the sweeter side. Their tarts and pastries didn't taste very fresh. The cream topping on the tart had a hardened toothpaste consistency. Just stale and yucky. Pretty to look at, however. I know this location is well known for their sandwiches so I am willing to give them a try in the future. But the tarts and pastries are a hard pass.

Gavi & Tilly's Cafe is welcoming of PETs on the Patio! I brought my pup to breakfast as we were out running errands all morning and wanted a break. With good food. And not eaten in a CAR. So we can for Gavi's amazing breakfast sandwiches, their little treats like this tiramisu and drink options. The food was good, the outside was relaxing and honestly it's so calming that my pup is welcomed into places making this a experience for the whole family. If they had some rice topped with sweat potatoes I would def buy a bowl for him.

Hibiscus Mango Smoothie, Bulgogi Sandwich, Donkatsu Sandwich, Viet Coffee
Amari H.

The sandwiches were great and very filling. The Bulgogi was our favorite. The Donkatsu sandwich was really good too though. The Honey Ricotta Toast was a bit too toast for me. It was tasty, but hard to eat with the bread being so hard. I wouldn't do the toast again, but the Bulgogi Sandwich was so good that we order another to go. The staff was nice enough to tell us how we could warm it up when we got home. Great! Overall, a very enjoyable experience. I love the idea of a food hall.

Bulgogi sandwich
Yierou M.

First time ordering and definitely not our last! My coworker suggested Tilly's but I asked if she can grab my Gavi order...well everyone started looking at the website and suddenly changed their mind on Tilly's. Next thing you know there's seven Gavi orders! My bulgogi sandwich was so good. I think I ate it in record time like my life depended on it! My associate got the steak and cheese; he noted to add tomato but didn't expect them to even notice but they were on there and he was happy! Another associate said the Peruvian chicken sandwich was delicious as well! Gavi will now be part of our regular rotation

Salt bread, matcha salt bread
Sylvia T.

I thought the matcha salt bread was gonna have MATCHA CREAM!!! It did NOT. I was massively disappointed by the salt breads both were not buttery or flaky enough. Also didn't taste very fresh. I also tried the matcha cream croissant and while the cream was good the croissant itself was so unfresh and soggy. The mango croffle was good I think because i didn't need to be as flaky to be fresh. The cream again was def the better part of both. The hot chicken sandwich is good though. Maybe it could be a bit more spicy and flavorful but it was solid. The seating in here is great and love the vibe of the whole place.

Matcha and Strawberry & Matcha Bingsoo
Wingyan L.

I stopped by GAVI Brunch Cafe after 8pm and learned that the kitchen closes at that time, so they're only serving drinks, cake by the slice, and bingsoo in the evening. Not a huge issue since I was mainly in the mood for something sweet, but it's definitely something to know before you go. I really enjoyed my Hojicha Latte -- smooth, cozy, and easily the highlight of my visit. For dessert, I tried the Yogurt Blueberry Cake Slice, which was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it didn't really stand out or feel memorable. Unfortunately, the bingsoo was the biggest letdown. I ordered both the Matcha Bingsoo and the Strawberry & Matcha Bingsoo, and they were disappointing. The texture and flavor leaned heavily toward tasting like shaved milk, and that's just not how I personally like my dairy-based desserts. I was hoping for more depth -- like stronger matcha flavor, and more layers of fruit and syrup to balance everything out. Overall, I'd come back for the drinks, but I'd probably skip the bingsoo next time.

Matcha Strawberry Bingsoo + Strawberry Cream Scone + Iced Chai Latte
Virginia H.

We wanted to try the new addition that replaced Semicolon Cafe. - Matcha Strawberry Bingsoo -- yummy, but pricey for the portion size - Strawberry Cream Scone -- too dry - Iced Chai Latte -- too watered down The interior is a modern food hall with open and secluded seating. Overall, the service was prompt and decent.

Iced Tiramisu Latte (S)

FOOD We tried the donkatsu and kimchi bulgogi sandwiches, both of which were beautifully presented and filling. The donkatsu sandwich was on the heavier side and a bit messy to eat. The kimchi bulgogi sandwich was incredibly juicy, but the juices pooled at the bottom, leaving one half of the sandwich soggy that was prone to falling apart. We found ourselves needing extra napkins to catch the mess and wished the plates were larger to better accommodate the sandwiches' size and messiness. DRINKS I had the iced tiramisu latte, which was light, flavorful, and not too sweet. While it included mascarpone, a rolled wafer, and a sprinkle of cinnamon or chocolate powder, the $7+ price tag felt steep for what it offered. SERVICE The staff were kind and friendly. AMBIANCE Tilly Kitchen provides a welcoming atmosphere, perfect for catching up with friends or working remotely. The space offers free Wi-Fi (no password required) and plenty of outlets throughout the seating areas. The bathrooms in the back of the food hall are clean and tidy. PARKING Ample parking is available both around the food hall and in the neighboring plaza, making it easy to find a spot.

Gavi Cafe ('gabee') is located inside Tilly Kitchen, and they offer breakfast and brunch options - specifically, they are popular with their Korean toast all-day sandwiches, as it was added to this new spot that overtook Semicolon Cafe. We came here for an early lunch, and ordering via the kiosk was super convenient: +a Bulgogi K-BBQ Cheese Egg toast sandwich - this came with lettuce, tomatoes, red onions, scrambled eggs with mozzarella cheese, and bulgogi, drizzled with a house sauce; the brioche toast was super thin, and could have been more toasted and buttery, as it just tasted like white toast; another issue was that even though we were waiting for a bit for this order, the sandwich didn't even come out piping hot, and it was didn't seem to be heated through appropriately +a Chai - this was awful - super watered down, not sure if they used some off-brand syrup to just flavor the water, but this was gross and undrinkable; we had to ask for a refund for this one! +and, a Mango Lemonade - this was okay, but it tasted slightly artificial It's unfortunately, because the sandwich, when prepared and actually served piping hot, could have been tasty, especially with the house sauce that they use. The staff here are friendly, but they're more on the slower end and has no sense of urgency. +cold toast sandwiches +avoid their beverages +slow service +located inside Tilly Kitchen +plenty of parking in large plaza lot

Separate matcha from matcha latte
Brandon C.

Food Hall style place. Order at the stand and pick a table. Nice chill spot. Sandwich was decent. $12 for a thicc egg sandwich. Some may find it difficult to eat because it is quite thick you have to smush it down a bit. My issue is with the drink I got. Iced matcha lattes are usually one of my go to, but this tasted super chalky and thick. It was easily one of the worst matcha lattes Ive had unfortunately. I didn't end up drinking it and the matcha eventually separated from the water inside. Pretty gross.

Great for quick brunch and desserts! The kimchi bulgogi is a must try! They also have a good menu for coffee and even bingsu!

Chicken Salad Sandwich - just ok
Linda B.

Yes, this was good, but not wonderful. Not sure what the what the plain einspanner latte was going to be, but it was alright. I ordered through Uber eats and it was delivered quickly, but everything was all right. I also ordered a chicken salad sandwich on sourdough and added avocado. I also ordered a brewed coffee with oat milk. Everything tasted alright. May or may not order from here again. It's up in the air. Sorry!

Shayna H.

I was previously a big fan of the Semicolon cafe and was sad to hear that it was no longer. In its place is the Gavi Brunch Cafe. I came to find out that it is nearly the same menu and actually has a bigger menu! I ordered the Bulgogi Sandwich. I got it with Lettuce, Bulgogi, Egg, and the most delicious sauce. It was so aesthetically pleasing that I almost didn't want to eat it. It was so delicious. I can't wait to go back.

See all

Cafe Moment - Strawberry Cheesecake

Cafe Moment

I decided to check out Cafe Moment because I had a random craving for bingsu. When my husband and I…read morewent to the self ordering kiosk, we noticed a very pungent sewage smell in the hallway area. The floor was also very sticky. We ordered the Greentea Mochi Snowflake and were pretty disappointed. I was hoping that the green tea flavor would be more of a matcha flavor but that wasn't the case. I like the taste of green tea so I wouldn't have minded but the bingsu was so sweet, I could barely taste any green tea flavor. The best part about the bingsu was the corn flakes and mochi bits but I don't even like corn flakes. The portion was pretty generous and could easily be shared with 2-3 people, which would be nice if the bingsu was actually good. We ended up only eating less than half of it. Would I go back? : Definitely not. I've never had a bad bingsu before and unfortunately this will be the first. We ended up going to Chateau de Chantilly Cafe afterwards because of how unsatisfied we were with our experience.

I've been here many times and the mango cheesecake bingsu NEVER misses. Literally one of my…read morefavorite desserts ever. The mangoes are sweet. The cheesecake bites are so creamy and yummy. The snow is milky and soft. The cereal adds a very nice texture. The vanilla ice cream on top is a a pretty sizable scoop. It's a big portion for one person, so I recommend sharing or just ball hard on your own. The croffle choco was So yummy as well. The texture was crispy and soft. The warm waffle with the cold ice cream is a wonderful contrast. The chocolate sauce kind of reminded me of Nutella. The Blue Portion-ade wasn't worth it imo. It pretty much tasted like watered down Sprite. Despite having two desserts, I still wouldn't say I was sugar overloaded. They weren't TOO sweet where I felt sick afterwards, but I was definitely stuffed. I'm a big fan of the self checkout and just grabbing your tray of food without much interaction. To some maybe it feels a little cold? But to me, this is paradise to not have much interaction prior to me devouring the food. Overall, I love coming here and eating yummy desserts in a chill environment!

A caramel apple pie, a sausage roll and a cup of coffee - it made for a really nice early lunch, a bit of savory and sweet. I honestly don't think you can go wrong with anything here! The staff were pleasant and the place has a large variety of seating. I will definitely return here again. A small word of caution - I was here on a Sunday, mid morning, and there were a LOT of young children scrambling around the restaurant while their parents enjoyed breakfast. They were not misbehaving, they just brought a healthy, high-spirited energy to the place. Not a problem to me in any way, but something to be aware of on certain days of the week if you're looking for a quiet place to enjoy breakfast.

The order was ready on time, and he even carried the coffee to my car. Everyone at our corporate event loved the donuts. We tried the vanilla, chocolate, hazelnut, and matcha flavors. The coffee was excellent, and the catering team thoughtfully provided utensils, coffee cups, and sleeves to prevent the cups from being too hot to hold. I also appreciated that the donuts were individually packaged, which gave the presentation a more polished and upscale feel. I will definitely keep the Chantilly Tous Les Jours in mind for the next event! :)

No wonder this location is always packed with customers! It has always been a local favorite. This location has two floors, plenty of seatings for hanging out, or just getting your work done. Parking is super easy. I tried their espresso flight menu for the first time because there are tons of unique creations that I wanted to try and I couldn't just choose just one! With the espresso flight you can choose three espresso drinks you want, including their specialties. You can choose hot/iced, but all has to be made with the same type of diary, which is not a problem for me! I ordered an Oat Latte, Dark Star (espresso, oat milk, dark chocolate & Azteca), and included one matcha drink, My Little Green Friend (matcha, oat milk, white chocolate & vanilla). They all tasted so good. Creamy, sweet, but not too sweet. And they came in three little mugs, with aesthetic latte art. I got so full (lol), but it was the best decision of the day! Can't wait to go back and try more of their creations!

I met up with friends and their kids there, and it honestly felt like the perfect place for both adults and children to relax and spend time together. I ordered the iced Earl Grey Matcha, which had earthy matcha layered with lavender cold foam, and I absolutely loved it. Smooth, refreshing, and unique without being overly sweet. Sourdough Brioche Cinnamon Roll was really good as well. One thing to keep in mind is that they have a limited stock of pastries, so if you want to try their baked goods, its definitely best to visit early before they sell out. I also love the story behind the shop. The owners are educators from Texas who pursued their dream of opening a coffee shop. As an educator myself, also from TX, I really appreciated that they celebrate Teacher Appreciation Week for educators. My friends who homeschool their kids unfortunately weren't able to get the teacher discount because they didn't have school IDs, but hopefully that's something they can consider expanding next year.
