GET THE BUTTERSCOTCH LATTE!!!! This place is always busy. That's how you know it's good. It's so worth the wait to have a cup of coffee here. Their baristas know their stuff. It's cozy inside and outdoor seating available as well. read more

Hohl - Butterscotch Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Williamsburg, Virginia

Came here to meet someone from Norfolk without having to cross the water. Let me say that Williamsburg parking is often a nightmare, but there is a lot in the way of fair-priced parking lots nearby. Everything we had, I would get again. The "chilli eggs" were great. The lamb was so good we saved half just so we could have it later in the day. The lattes were solid, too. For a place where you have to wait in line to pay and have your food brought to you, it is not cheap. But the prices don't feel like you're being gouged either. Just don't expect to get out of there with two people and pay $30 dollars. It will not happen. Also, don't expect quiet. This place is loud. Small rooms with lots of chairs and nothing to cushion the noise. My perfect visit: 1. Have someone order the food and find seating. 2. You go to the dessert place a few doors down and get a medley of treats. 3. If you're two people, order three things and share a bit of each. 4. When you're almost done, order two coffees to go then sit back down. 5. Someone will bring you your coffees and you can walk out with drinks in hand and snack on chocolate covered items as you walk back to your car. 6. Complain that you should have gotten the large coffee and didn't ask for napkins so your fingers are a bit sticky. 7. Drive contentedly home and talk about what your favorite thing was. 8. No, no one is nice about merging back onto that highway, but that's not Hohl's fault. read more

I'm Soo happy, I swing by for some coffee. They make their own syrup and grind their own coffee. I ordered the Dingo Ice Latte ( warm note of honey, vanilla and cinnamon) I did add some lavender to it. It was sooooo delicious . The coffee taste ridiculously fresh( which I love!), I can definitely taste the lavender in it. It wasn't too sweet at all! I pair it with a pastry, Rum raisin. The cream on the inside was filled with raisins and the flakyness went so well. Every bite was a little taste of heaven with a sip of coffee. I truly enjoy everything I ordered. Cashier was super sweet. Parking is limited to street only, but on a Wednesday morning wasn't to bad. Thank you for my wonderful cup of java for the road back home( NC). read more

The service here was really cute and such a cute environment to do work or study. The lamb was better quality that I expected for a cafe. It was soft and was great in the sandwich. Love love the chocolate croissant! I think there was dates in it that made it taste different but a good way different. Would def come back to try other pastries read more

My partner and I went for a quick bite and an afternoon pick-me-up in this conveniently located spot. The staff were attentive and helpful. I would say the coffee was not overly sweet, great espresso, overall a 10/10. Our only qualm was the lambwich meat was a tad dry. I would definitely come here for the cute vibes and tasty coffee:) read more

Came here for a quick lunch and I ordered the hohl bowl (10/10) it was gigantic and sooo good. It has roasted chicken, arugula, roasted veggies (asparagus, broccoli, onion, and mushrooms, and corn), edamame, hummus, and a side of miso sauce! I didn't even add the miso sauce as the bowl itself was delicious and would've been too salty with it! The chicken was a little overcooked/dry, but that's the only issue I found My mom ordered the avocado toast with poached eggs and mushrooms (8/10) the bread was so thin and impossible to cut but the pickled cauliflower was really good! I also had the espresso tonic (10/10 with it half sweet) Overall a cute cafe with some delicious food and nice staff! read more

I've been here a handful of time and keep skipping everything else on my walk to go here. Lattes are delicious and not bitter and presented great. I've had the lamb sandwich and the veggie sandwich. Both are good but the veggie sandwich in particular will have me coming back. Croissant was also good, but probably would skip next time. Highly recommend :) read more

For my second visit to Hohl's downtown, my opinion of the food remains the same: it's all tasty. My opinion of the pricing remains the same: it's all WILDLY overpriced. My plate of scrambled eggs and a slice of sourdough bread was $11. My wife's side of eggs, which came served in a side ramekin, was $4. We are talking about food cost measured in pennies totaling nearly $17 with tax. The staff are always very friendly, but being friendly about delivering ridiculous answers somehow rings hollow. Today, we were initially told that they were out of the listed sourdough and were defaulting to the alternate side choice of greens. I'm sorry, but when you are out of an item, it is up to the restaurant to absorb the cost of making it right for the customer; it may be more expensive to substitute a croissant or other slice of bread, but when you have failed to provide a cornerstone of your menu, you suck it up and make the guest happy. They miraculously found more sourdough, but that brings me to my next point: it took nearly thirty minutes to be served what amounted to three scrambled eggs and a slice of toast . This is a ticket which should take no more than three minutes to prepare. When I'd finally did get the table, there was no butter or salt; we ate the toast while walking out the door because it was forgotten and we had to ask for it a second time. I'm afraid that the experience continues to diminish without seeing an increase in value. read more

Outstanding food, definitely gets busy! The Kerfluffle Pancake is something else: the menu description reads like the kitchen sink, which is reinforced when it shows up, but it really all works well together! It ends up as a nice combination of salty, sweet, tart, and savory that really goes well with a cup of coffee. For lunch, the lamb sandwich is shockingly high caliber for a cafe, the lamb itself could be served at a high-end restaurant as an entree with the flavor and tenderness they get from it. The veggie sandwich was good as well, and more than filling! read more

Hohl is a cute place that's always busy. I like how you order at the counter and then take a number to any table for your server to bring your order when it's ready. The menu is kind-of small with interesting offerings. My friend and I both ordered the Fig & Prosciutto flat rectangular pastry covered in goat cheese, prosciutto, fresh cut figs, and served heated. It was so yummy!! My friend had the Red Juice, which she really liked. I had the Butterfly Effect pea flower iced tea with lemon agave syrup that when I added the syrup, it turned my blue drink into a purple drink. It was delicious! Hohl is a pleasant place for breakfast or lunch. read more

This was a cute little café located by colonial Williamsburg. You can dine in for breakfast or brunch or you could grab something on the go. Prices are a little high, but I guess that's to be expected with the price of inflation. We ordered a brownie which was delicious , Greek yogurt bowl with this amazing rhubarb compote , fresh berries and house made granola it's hands-down probably one of the best granola bowls I've ever had . The affogato has a unique twist crumbled cereal on top which was a very nice touch. So if you are visiting the area I would definitely give this place a try . read more

This is their 2nd location in Williamsburg-James City County and right within walking distance of Colonial Williamsburg. It's in a house and I don't believe it is handicap accessible. They do have outside seating on their lawn area that you wouldn't need stairs to access but would have to have a friend order your drink. Inside there is seating both upstairs and downstairs. You order downstairs and they bring you your drink/food order after they give you a number when you order. Drinks: I got a plain drip coffee that came in the cutest mini coffee pot with half & half and a side of their syrup (can't recall the name but it was delicious) I'm a sucker for a cute drink set-up so I would order this again just for the coffee pot. Service: everyone I encountered was extremely nice and polite! Drinks and food didn't take too long even though the place was packed. I was with a large group of 15 but we were able to find a space upstairs, and enjoy drinks and breakfast items. read more

We recently went to Hohl since it was open before the Colonial Williamsburg opened. We had some time to kill and the lamb sandwich caught my eye. It was amazing! Definitely a great mix of textures of the soft pulled lamb and toasted slice of bread. There is additional seating upstairs, which was quite cute and cozy. Since the kitchen was also upstairs, we got our food almost right away. read more

A cute new brunch spot near Merchant Square! We arrived around 10:30am on a weekday and it was packed. Nearly every table was full, including an outdoor table. It took 25 minutes for our food to arrive to our table after placing the order. We ordered the veggie sandwich with added scrambled eggs, and an avocado toast. Both were delicious, however different than listed on the menu. The veggie sandwich was missing the roasted squash and cauliflower, but had a pickled carrot/cabbage slaw. The avocado toast lacked the pickled cauliflower, shiitake mushrooms, and asparagus, and had broccoli and portobello mushrooms instead. It was also substantially smaller than when ordered in the past. The size of your toast may depend on how close to the edge of the bread loaf your piece was sliced. Not sure if these were seasonal menu changes, or substitutions made due to produce availability, but either way I wish we had been informed of the differences while ordering. The only milk options are whole and oat milk. read more

This is a great little spot for breakfast. You order your food at the counter and can get it to go or stay inside. If you choose to eat in, you get a number and they'll find you when your food is ready. I got the butterscotch latte, which wasn't too sweet, which was great for me. It went very nicely with the avocado toast, which blew me away. The pickled cauliflower, greens and goat cheese. It was gigantic and I somehow ate all of it because even though it was large, it was so good. There is limited seating inside. It got pretty full by the time I left. The tables were cleaned almost instantly and it was pretty quiet for the amount of space. read more

Absolute worst experience at a coffee shop here. It was parents day weekend as well as an art showing. The place was not ready for amount of people and did not have the help they needed. I waited 20min in line for a black coffee and then waited another 15min for my order to be completed. I think I was more than patient for the amount of time. One of the servers said on average it was taking 30 min to make an order. Had I known that when I had paid for my $5 black coffee I would not have ordered. I understand as a previous person in food service that they were slammed but start a wait-list. read more

What a cute little establishment. I came in for breakfast on Friday morning and was able to find street parking right in front. I ordered the Oats for Winter and a latte at the counter. I found a table upstairs and they brought the food up to me. The oats were phenomenal!!! Omg, all those different fruits and I think granola mixed into the creamy oatmeal, so yummy. It was just the perfect touch of sweetness without going overboard. I can't wait to come back to town so I can have that again. read more

Terrible takeout experiene. 1) handed me two piping hot cups of coffee with no sleeves, and no extra cup. Evem warned me it was hot but took no precautions? 2) handed me my food in two boxes. Had to ask for both a bag, as well as utensils and napkins. Why are these basic things not being included? For 50 dollars for one omelet, side of bacon, and two coffees? This is embarassing. Get your act together. Decent food and coffee at least read more

Went for coffee before a day in Williamsburg with my parents. It was difficult to find the cafe aince there was not a large sign saying "Hohl" outside so going by the address is helpful. Quite crowded on a Saturday morning so the space was tight. Thankfully, there's more space upstairs where customers can eat. Service was cordial. Credit card only went we went. The hot drinks were nice on a sunny winter Saturday. read more

In terms of vibe, it's the best coffee shop in town. The coffee/pastries are also amazing. But I've unfortunately had one too many frustrating experiences here in terms of customer service. Once, I came here with a friend and brought in sandwiches from another local restaurant. Before sitting, we looked for any signage about outside food and didn't see any posted. We ordered drinks and pastries from Hohl and sat down to eat. We noticed several others around us with coffees from different places and snacks, etc. I saw an employee side-eye us for a moment and watched them go to a manager to speak with them while pointing at us. He came over and told us that having sandwiches from a different place is a liability. He was mostly polite about it, but the employees seemed salty for the rest of our stay. This is one example, but I've had similar experiences since then with feeling like employees are annoyed by a customer's presence or questions. They also don't have a public WiFi, which is worth noting for a coffee shop. I hope you don't get this kind of experience at all and I'm just completely off! Because I love their food/drinks and love seeing strong local businesses do well. read more

Bought a cup of coffee and asked if they had honey, which they indicated they would add. Checked out and found they charged 75 cents to add honey, without notice, while every other place is free. Overall price for coffee was $4.75 area a bit overpriced? Had to wait 10 minutes plus for a simple cup of coffee? Coffee was good but not worth it. Next time walk down to WAWA or Starbucks. Service questionable. read more
